Putting stuff up!


Well, now that Cass and I are officially moved in, there hasn't been a whole lot of things to do that are interesting. We've mainly just been unpacking and finding places for everything. Cass did a great job of unpacking a lot of stuff on Saturday while I was fixing a few things on the truck getting it ready for our back to back weekend trips coming up.

Sunday however, we did a few things to the house. We bought some canvases and fabric to wrap the canvases in to create some "artwork" for the living room. We had one wall that was completely blank, so we needed to do something with it and Cass had the genius idea to do what we did. I think it turned out pretty darn good!

We also put up our wedding pictures in the "foyer" hallway. I guess you could call it the foyer anyway. It's the hallway in front of the front door.

The other thing that we did which was really special was we took a painting that Cass's great grandmother (we call her "Momoo") painted back in 1970 and had it reframed. It had a frame around it before, but it was kinda falling out of the frame and the frame was really old. So we went down to Michaels and got a new frame for it which really breathed some new life into the painting. It looks fantastic in our dining room and it's really special too because Momoo's Buffet, painting, and (coming soon) her dining table will be in the dining room.

So that's what's been up around our place lately. For Father's Day, my Mom and Dad joined us for a bike ride out at Willow Metropark and a BBQ afterwards at our house. It was great fun. I hope everyone had a great Father's day, too.
