Spring To-do List…

This weekend was the first weekend we’ve been home without any plans in a long while.  We’ve recently re-organized our master to-do list and we started tackling the list.  First on the list was finally putting up the dark chocolate velvet curtains in the living room.  The room is basically complete now…we eventually will add crown molding, but as far as decor…it’s complete!  We could not be happier with the colors of chocolate brown and green.  The curtains really frame the window and soften everything up.  April 2009 038April 2009 039  Next on the list was new flowers for the bed in the front.  Several weeks ago we planted Double Knock Out roses and an Azalea in memory of the baby we lost.  I still had some space in the flower bed, so we decided on yellow African Mums and purple Salvia.  April 2009 053 April 2009 055 April 2009 054It was quite a productive weekend…putting up curtains (that I actually ironed), planting flowers, organizing the bathroom cabinets, and cleaning the house until it’s spotless.  We even found time later in the afternoon to go on a 3 mile run.  It was a perfect spring day!

Next up is painting a desk, painting the dining room, more organization…and finally installing a over the range microwave and a new backsplash in the kitchen!
