DIY Floating Mantle

 We decided to do our own living room fireplace mantle.  
It is stained to match our built-in cabinets.  
It turned out great for our first DIY mantle.
We had the cutest little helpers!!

 Ellyn had the brilliant idea to personalize our mantle with notes placed inside it.  We all wrote, or drew, a little something and placed it inside.




 Our banister in the process of completion.

 This beautiful Chicka turned 15!!! 

Happy Easter

Flooring Begins & Counter Tops

 Red River Hickory
Coretec Plus Waterproof Luxury Vinyl Tile

 Pantry

 Entry

Counter tops arriving!
Master Bathroom Vanity



 The floors were covered with blankets so the counter top installers could install with out damaging the floor.
So far, the kids have had a blast sliding across the floor 
with their socks on.  I joined them a few times.  
Hey, we gotta have fun until the furniture is moved in!

And Then There Was LIGHT!


 We had to replace the transformer on the pole then 
get the power box in on our side of the road.



We now have a freezer plugged in, in our basement, full of meat! 
 Thanks to our amazing cow that we loved raising and the two lambs that we were also blessed to raise. 
It may take Ellyn awhile before she will be willing to eat the lamb.
We've been having some really wet weather so it has put a few
 things behind schedule.  However, we are grateful for the moisture.
