Bathroom Makeover, Part III

The bathroom remodel is coming along. Andy is currently working on finishing the cabinet build. The vanity is (mostly) in. He is waiting till the build is finished to mess with plumbing. Here are some pics of the progress so far:

Andy puts his hunting pad to great use when he's working on the floor.

The new vanity. The top was special ordered to fit the custom made cabinet. We LOVE how it turned out!

The counter top goes so well with the color scheme!

We really like how it's turned out so far.

BFF's Baby Shower

 

I recently helped with a baby shower for Adrienne. I had an idea of what I wanted to get her for the nursery but couldn't find it. This part-time some of the time crafter ended up wandering around Hobby Lobby for a while till I got an idea together. I only had to go back once! It turned out alright I think. I'm definitely not thinking of embarking on a new career as artist though. We used nursery items to decorate the tables, which for future hostesses - means less to take home afterward!

Garden

 We haven't spent much time out in the garden this year. We haven't had that much time to spend in it! Andy's been working on the bathroom, working out of town some, I've been doing my usual couldn't tell you what, and it's been so hot we've been lucky just to remember to keep it watered. I spent an hour and a half out in the garden one evening last month and didn't hardly make a dent. We had great lettuce. It went to seed. We almost lost some onions for all the weeds growing up around them, but I found most of them. We've picked, washed, cooked, and frozen quite a bit of corn. Andy's pickled 14 quarts of pickles, and I've picked several bags of butternut squash. What I haven't given away is still on the counter in the laundry room ripening. It's just too hot and the bugs moved in.

In no particular order, here are some older pictures of the garden. Not a whole lot to take pictures of now since most of it is picked. I will post pictures of the watermelon and tomatoes later.

Butternut Squash, Since Picked

Tomatoes, Which Now Cover Both Sides of the Wire

Lettuce A Month or Two (?) Ago

Corn, Picked and Quite a Bit Eaten Since

Watermelon, Still Growing

Potatoes in Bloom, Picked Today

 Apparently since I don't eat cucumber I didn't think to take pictures of it. I missed the carrots too, but I'll try to get pictures of those later. I'm just trying to get caught up with pictures I've already taken. :)

I just realized...

I just realized how much had been done around here when I looked at the last blog post! I guess I'd better get busy... we have garden crops, bathroom progress, and I'm sure a few other things that have happened lately.
