The past 7 months have been a whirl wind of activities.
In January, we celebrated the new year and stayed home just the two of us. I also painted the laundry room and moved the cabinets all round.
In February, I made one of the hardest decisions I've had to make. I decided to leave my job and start something new. I just didn't know what that something was. I realized that I was putting Steven and myself in a finincally tough spot, but it was a decision I needed to make. So, three weeks later I began a new career path at Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts is in my blood. I'm a lifetime member, so this was an easy decision to make.
I'm the second from the top left. This was the weekend at Fall Creek Falls that we spent with our tent tied to the trees because of tornadoes. Best trip ever.
March was another hard month. I said goodbye to my sweet Grand. She had taken a turn for the worse, so my family had about week to prepare for her funeral. My dad and I (with lots of help from my mom) put together a slideshow for the funeral. As my dad said, "I hate those things that have the waterfall pictures and crap. Grand deserves better."
Grand is on the far right, she was always the tallest. Grand loved strolling in downtown Franklin.
April was full of more surprises. Steven and I came home with our puppy, Mia. Needless to say, shes full of energy and LOVES to play.
She's a black lab mix. And she's already outgrown this collar and harness.
May began the house repairs. Let me be specific. We replaced all of the siding and windows on the house.
Before.
During.
Before the actual siding went up.
June was full of painting. In the hot, hot weather.
Umm.. do you like our redneck scaffolding?
Did I mention it was hot? We ending up painting at night. Almost every night.
And now, we are in July. We had a great 4th of July weekend and FINALLY finished paiting the house. Painting finale photos to come!
