the project list

Here is the very long project list for the new house. He have started making some progress, but still have a long way to go. I don't know the exact order or time frame that all of this will be completed in, but we have our work cut out for us.

If I look a this list too long I get very overwhelmed. I keep trying to remind myself that this is a process. I have a house to unpack and a husband and 2 boys that need me to be wife and mommy.

If I look a this list too long I get very overwhelmed. I have a husband and 2 boys that need me to be wife and mommy, a house to unpack, and the never ending loads of laundry.  I keep trying to remind myself that this is a process.

One day I will have some pics to show you.
