7 years of Stuff

It's now May and we have lived at 1732 for almost 3 weeks.  For the last 6 months we have been doing nothing but construction, little moves and preparation yet we are still living in a sea of boxes and repeatedly ask "where is the...?"

But it really pays off when Sophia wakes up happy

in her bright & cheery purple bedroom.

Or can walk herself down to her friend's house to

hang out with them for a solid 5 hours.

Or when it's so quiet that we can hear things

scurrying in the yard.

We're still under construction, and will be for at least 6-8 more months. 

• The final walls and fixtures going up in the second floor bathroom.
• Building a fine looking temporary/canning kitchen.
• Tricking out awesome closets for all of our junk.
• Fixing up the first floor bathroom.
• Ripping out the walls and reconstructing the kitchen.
• Rearranging the "natural" landscaping.
• Painting the first floor.
• Buffing the floors on the first floor (no real sanding, thankfully).
• and about 104 other things.
• whew, that's a lot of things
