Let the Work Begin...




This year we have tons of household projects that we are going to work on doing. Everything ranging to replacing a few doorknobs that just aren't working right to major changes like the flooring.

We started everything off a few weeks ago with Tanner's room. We re-arranged it and made a few changes like a Lego building station with nifty storage units for his Lego's and a super cool baseball supply shelf that Landon invented. We also got his new Ipod docking station that he got for Christmas all rigged up.
Landon has also already fixed our washer which had been leaking for several weeks.

This weekend we started or I should say Landon did, with the help of Dave and Brandon our neighbors the task of putting wood floors in the front room and hallway. Dave also fixed the door to the washer and dryer that Landon broke during Christmas-lol. Chloe was super happy to help with this project and she has really been helping not just hindering. She worked so hard that late Friday night I went looking for her and found her fast asleep on her bedroom floor. What a trooper. I can't actually say that Tanner has been to happy about all of these projects he really hates things to change, in fact he has been a little bit upset, though I think he has really grown to like some of the changes in his room, so hopefully he'll like the new floors eventually too.Look at the dirt on her face in this picture after a hard days labor.
I'll post some more picts when the whole project is finished.

At the top of the list when this is through is to replace the dishwasher which hasn't worked for several months, and repair the oven which hasn't been working for a few weeks. I don't see any weekends of R & R for quite a while, but it will be worth it when we get it all done:)

Awesome! I'll line something up for Landon to work on when you guys come up for the blessings so he'll feel right at home! ;)
