So this post is a long time coming. Probably one proof that my life is greatly in need of some organization. We are settling into routine and for my little family that is a big deal. Ever and always changing has been the theme of my life since marrying Eric. But after five moves in four years I can safely say we are at least staying in the home we have had for almost a year... another six months. I know that doesn't sound like a lot but for us... It's a long term commitment.
My life is different in many ways from my sister's. We do not have a big house and none of my home projects include renovation of any kind. We rent a two bedroom condo and my projects mostly include making due with what we have and making things work the way they are. This has involved borrowing (we still need to buy our own) a wagon for the long hauls with groceries, baby gear, ect. from our garage to our condo. Utilizing every nook and cranny for storage. Once again ridding ourselves of things we don't need. And rearranging furniture numerous times.

Projects on the horizon, hopefully:
*Installing shelves in our hall closet (so I can make myself a pretty pantry)
*Installing a shelving system in our garage (so we can rid our house of boxes we have no where to store)
*Beautifying our patio and making a play space for Esmond outside
*Turning the second hall closet from a catch all to an organized office closet/ art space
*Finish Esmond's room
- he has no lights...
-installing bookshelves
-making a seat/storage system

Below is a project I can say I have finished. Hurray! For four years Eric and I have been talking about having our very own coffee/drinks bar. We have finally done it. My parents got us the Delonghi espresso machine and my grandma the vintage bar/cabinet which we painted black. This wall was incredibly blank and lacking in purpose and is now a space to entertain.
