this bush bloomed for so long! |
enjoying a warm day outside in November |
we took the lime tree downstairs to the basement and it loves it down there. Sounds like I need to start growing a bunch of fruiting tropical plants. Orange tree? Avocado tree? |
extremely happy to move on from the wallpaper |
continuing the mountains theme |
perfect for hanging capes. I painted over that spot. All that is left in Ben's room is the baseboards and new outlets. |
window install at midnight while boys sleep |
quails in the yard one morning |
Danny has recently started standing by himself! I'd say he started around 8 months |
moldy drywall replaced |
found more mold. yay |
Manolo likes it |
Danny eats Ben's left overs |
Master painted and curtains hung. Just have to finish the baseboards and closet upper doors (and of course new windows) |
grey spot is Manolo. It's fun to look out the new window. |
we found water coming UP from the floor here. I think Jamir solved the problem temporarily by covering a chimney vent. Weird. Anyway, Manolo guards it. He thinks there might be a mouse in there. |
starting backplash. New back door. (that we found for free!) |
reindeer made by Ben |
someone giving this away. I never have to buy toys |
haze wiped off bottom tiles |

Cam got second. He ran the first half with me and Janessa |

He wanted to stay and play in the snow |

the snow scene had to be moved on top... |

finished my nativity scene from last year. I would like to add a camel, but need a bigger ball |
they like this cabinet too much |

someone found a good spot |
trim added to base cabinets |
I got a new phone with a nicer camera on it |

Danny feeling better after a fever. poor boy |
sad because he's still stuffy and I had to wake him up for church |
