Weekend Recap

Hello September!

I hope you enjoyed your long weekend.  I would love to welcome some cooler temperatures along with welcoming the new month.  I will keep my fingers crossed.  The rest of this week is going to be hot.  Ugh.

We got a lot done this weekend, but before we go into that...

Happy happy birthday to my niece Chelsie!!!!  I love this beautiful girl!  Have a great day Chelsie!

This weekend involved lots of unpacking, organizing, cleaning out and repacking.  Lots of fun right?  We got all the various holiday decorations packaged into large plastic containers and stored in the attic.  Getting that organized was a huge accomplishment.  We also got lots of items loaded up for donation.  I did find a couple of treasures as I unpacked the few remaining boxes.  I found my jewelry box and all my jewelry making supplies.  Yay.  And look at these shoes I found.

Didn't even remember these...like Christmas!

We won't be able to call the den the box room much longer.  So exciting!

Friday my sis-in-law came over for dinner and brought me a present.

Cute, right?

Saturday I got packages!  I love getting packages.  I'm crazy, I know.

These are heading to the gym with me at lunch!

Sammy's new collar.

I am already looking forward to next weekend, is that wrong?  We have some people coming to pick up all the paper trash, construction trash and odds and ends that we have left and take it for recycling.  It will be nice to have the garage and piece of the driveway cleaned out!

Progress makes me smile!!  How was your weekend?

Weekend Recap

Happy Monday!!  I am not usually the type to say that...but I had such a great morning!!  I went to bed pretty early last night so I was up a little earlier this morning.  I got so much done including making a gigantic salad for my lunch today.  It was a very productive morning so I am in a great mood.

My gigantic accomplishment on Saturday: unpacking the remaining kitchen boxes and getting everything put away!  I am thrilled with the shelves in my breakfast room.

Hello pretty space!

Saturday morning I had my coffee at the breakfast room table just so I could take in my handy work.  I haven't decided what will be hanging on the wall in the middle yet...but I am super pleased with my shelves.

Oh, and here is our new fridge...I am in love!

The husband did tons of work over the weekend including hanging the pot rack.

It was a very productive kitchen weekend.  I am so ready for the little odds and ends to be done.  I am ready to take after pictures and do a before and after post.  :)

Now that the stove is in place and off the sun porch, I centered the sofa out there.  The sun porch is attached to our bedroom, so the sofa area out there will be a sitting room off our room.  I am excited to have it finished too, but getting the sofa in place was pretty cool.  I laid down on it after I moved it...it will be a great nap spot.

View from the sun porch sofa.  LOL

Sunday I took a trip with the gals to Minute Maid Park to see the Astros play.  It was a fun day.

I think our ballpark is pretty.  The Astros didn't win for us, but we still had fun.

Okay...here's to turning a productive Monday morning into a productive week!!  Have a great day!!!
