coming along

This week I am grateful for having our bathroom back without our dishes on the counter and having a kitchen with a sink before the counter-top arrives! Also, we have a stove to use! This weekend Craig and I are going to hang our bedroom and guest bedroom curtains and do some more finishing touches on the kitchen :)

A huge thank you again to Craig's parents for all of their amazing work while they were here!

Enjoy your weekend!

Doesn't it feel cozy?

happy birthday

to Craig! Today is Craig's birthday and we get to celebrate tonight by going to one of our favorite restaurants. Also, the counter-top company comes today to take measurements for our kitchen! Hooray!

weekend adventure

Craig and I had the chance to celebrate his birthday this past weekend by going to Aspen/Snowmass and spending the weekend in the wilderness! Many thank-yous to Craig's parents for continuing to work on the house and making great updates!

"holiday" weekend

A lot happened over the past few days. But even for our three-day weekend it was hardly a "holiday" - we were busy decorating (other parts of the house), demolishing, building, and setting up the new kitchen! Things are still in process but we put together almost all of the cabinets and Dave (Craig's dad) and Craig worked on all of the set-up in the kitchen. It's quite a process!

The kitchen arrives!
