Happy February!

We worked on the house this weekend while it snowed outside! I made some tasty treats for the super bowl - vegan carrot cake cupcakes. Craig made seitan hot wings that were amazing. We also cleaned and rearranged the basement so it looks much more organized. Pictures coming soon! Here's the peninsula progress...

January!

Hello everyone and welcome back! Sorry for the long break. We took about a month off from home renovations to travel home for the holidays, spend time with friends, and enjoy the unusually nice January weekend weather. Craig got started on the new counter-top that is between the kitchen and dining room/living room - the peninsula. Here are some before and after photos!

Final Product

Craig worked on the final steps (grouting) for the back splash design above the stove this weekend. Looks amazing! Next stop - going to PA for the holidays and taking a break from home renovations!

Craig's AMAZING work!

Thanksgiving

Craig and I stayed in Colorado Springs this year and we had quite the feast on Thanksgiving! We were able to relax, spend time outside, and even work on the house a little!

Kitchen Counter-tops!

Our counter-tops arrived last week for the kitchen and they look amazing! We have been enjoying using our kitchen over the past few days! Here are some before and after (today!) shots.

I went on a work trip last week and I came home to visit PA for a few days. I head back tomorrow but while I was gone this past weekend Craig accomplished so much! Maybe I should go away more often!
