....and a grill.
...because we just bought a house!
After being transient students for the last 6.5 years between Provo, Salt Lake City and Lubbock, we have finally arrived at a point in our lives to chill for a bit, and buy a house.
We closed on our house a week ago, and in that week, we have scraped off all the popcorn ceilings downstairs, and spent all day yesterday painting and repainting them. WHAT A PROJECT. Thanks to some awesome friends (Julie and Bo) that watched our kids, we were able to get a lot done. We are in our other place until the end of the month, so we have a couple more weeks to tackle as many projects as we possibly can before we move in. WE ARE BEYOND THRILLED.
Next up, painting all the walls (including that orange-ish brown-ish wall in the picture).
This is the reason I have been so absent from my blog! I was shocked that my last post was 2.5 weeks ago!
Stay tuned to see more projects and more of our house!

Woot-woot!!! Welcome to the wonderful world of homeownership!!!
Ooooo, paint the banister white.
Congratulations! You are going to have so much fun making your house a home. I can't wait to see what you do with it!
Oh my goodness! That is so exciting! I can't wait to see more and more of what you do! I hear scraping the popcorn off ceilings is a messy nightmare, so smart of you to do it before moving in!
Please share some before/after pics!! I LOVE looking at home re-dos!
Awesome!!! I can't wait to see your house all fresh and painted and just how you like it! How fun. Congrats!!!
So exciting!! Advice from someone who was in the same boat 9 months ago...do as much as you can before you move in because the work WILL slow down once you're in, no matter what you think ;) we've been at a stand still for so long now!! Good luck!! Can't wait to see pictures :)
Congratulations! We are so excited for you all. Enjoy!
Ooooo! I can't wait to see more!!
YAY!!! Super exciting!!! XOXO
Hooray!! I can't believe you scraped the popcorn off of the ceilings too - that is a HUGE project. Not to mention painting. We are so excited for you guys. Backyards are the best things EVER.
