2012 Goals

As I think of all of the things I would would like for both Tom and I to tackle this year the list seems to go on and on and now it seems like it may not be as realistic as I was hoping for. So here I sit looking at these great goals and realize that it's time to prioritize them, especially since as of right now there are 20 projects on my list. I'm thinking Tom and I have our hands just a bit full for this year and it's only mid January! Better get started .... Hmmm which project to choose!

Here's the list so far! Stay posted for pictures of the finished projects.
1. Transition strips
2. Paint the trim in the kitchen
3. Paint all 4 exterior doors
4. Felt pads on the legs of the coffee table
5. Paint Laundry room
6. Put old ( freshly painted) kitchen cabinets in laundry room
7. Paint dining room ceiling and walls
8. Components cabinet
9. Finish ceiling fans
10. Organize and label all the bins in the basement
11. Paint and organize my craft area
12. Paint dresser in living room black
13. Make spice rack
14. Put knob back on the kitchen drawer
15. Paint foyer
16. Organize front hall closet
17. Paint the girls beds white
18. Paint living room and ceiling
19. Make new wreaths for all 4 doors
20. Grout new tile backsplash

So as I re read this list which is in no specific order, there are definitely some really easy projects, and then there are some time consuming ones.
So wish us luck as we start to tackle this list!

Always something Delicious.

My Mother in Law goes to these trusty cook books often. This evening we had Pheasant with Wild Rice and Asparagus. The Pheasants were caught by the hubby, and boy were they delicious! I am fortunate enough to have a teacher j. The kitchen especially when it comes to the waterfowl that the hubby brings home this time of the year.

It's never too late!

We have been in our home since 2006 and both T and I have been working on it since the day we closed on it. Some pictures have been taken along the way but mostly it's all stored in our memories. It then dawned on me as my husband was working on my new back splash this past wekend that I could start blogging about all of our projects we takle together.
I have the greatest feeling that 2012 will bring us so many new adventures and projects. I hope you enjoy our projects as much as we do.
And so the adventures begin!
