I thought I could give everyone an update on the house. As you know, we bought a small cape cod last January. It has a 2 acre lot, but unfortunately most of it is on a hill. We had our bathroom and kitchen redone before moving in. Since then we havent accomplished a whole lot, but it is slowly getting there. Right now we are replacing our back storm door, since the wind ripped it right off the hinges. Ok, the door ripped off in November, and Tim is STILL working on framing the door to put the new door on. The new door is very nice, by the way. Anyway, the house is quite old and hasnt had much anything done to it since it was built, so we are finding a lot of things need fixed.

Besides the door, I am working on making a play space for the kids in the basement. So far I have a futon, bookshelf, a shelf of bins and their train table down there for them. We took the keyboard down as well and now they are loving it. Brynn and Mara perform concerts weekly. Brynn plugs her microphone into the amp and sings while Mara plays guitar and sings. They are hilarious. Next concert, I will take pictures and post them. Usually they dress up, hair, make-up, the works. Too cute!

We also would like to repaint the hallway and downstairs, the paint has peeled off in sheets and really looks ugly. And I am refinishing all the woodworking in the house. Hopefully by summer this will all be done and we can get back to working on the outside once again.
