Our Soon-to-Be Home

There have been two projects on my mind lately:

1. The Wedding
2. The House

Usually the first one takes more priority over the second one in my head, and I suppose there's good reason for that. It's crazy to think the wedding is in just over 3 weeks! 

Since wedding details are almost all complete, I took one day this week to sneak away and drive up to the cabin to work on some projects up there, including painting a few walls. Clint has already moved in, so I guess technically it's his house right now. But I still am having fun being a new little homemaker, and I like to think of it as "our" house. I guess that will be true in a few weeks.

I want to take a second to brag on my very-soon-to-be husband. He decided that he wanted to make some new furniture for our home, and so, after a trip to Lowe's and several happy hours sawing and screwing and sanding, he created a beautiful bed frame and a table for our microwave and toaster. They look AMAZING! And he put them together so effortlessly. As I was watching him work, I kept thinking, "Good gravy, it would take me eons to do what he's doing." And that's not an exaggeration. Actually, I don't think I could even screw two boards together without destroying something in the process. 

So, yes, I did take a few pictures, and here they are. I honestly don't think they do justice to his craftsmanship.





We may take some time to stain them at some point... when we have some time... whenever that happens.

But as you can see, our home is coming together nicely! It's starting to feel like ours.
