Hi everyone! It’s been a while (an inexcusably long while, to be honest) but we are so excited to be back and ready to fill you in on everything that has been going on around this old home of ours! We thought that the beginning of the new year was a perfect time to pretend we didn’t abandon the blog for the last 4 months give you a recap of everything that has been going on around here that we mightttt have been neglecting to update you on. While we have made a fair amount of progress on our to-do list in recent months, we still have a long way to go and lots of design decisions that we would love your help with. We are going to break the progress down into smaller sections instead of doing one giant post, so we will start exactly where we left off.
As a refresher, we asked you to vote on which color we should paint the foundation of our house. The winner was white and we promptly got to work making your wishes come true. We ended up loving the way it turned out. You can judge the final product for yourself in the before and after pictures below.

Before
Hi friends! We have good news and bad news. The good news is that my son is watching Arthur on PBS right now and the episode is about blogging which has to be some sort of sign that the writer has definitely run out of plot ideas it is a good day to finally write a new post. The bad news is all of the characters are mad at Muffy because she is obsessed with her blog, “The Muffington Post”, and I am a little jealous of her amazingly high level of motivation. The other piece of bad news is that our renovation work is moving along pretty slowwwwwly over here. We have been alternating between working on a few outside projects, working on the upstairs bathrooms, and having lots of summer fun which has led to a lot of half-done projects that are anything but attractive to look at. They are well on their way to becoming something special, they just aren’t there yet.
However, we do have some progress to share and I thought that the best way to get back into the swing of all of this was to start with a vote! More on that in a minute…
