Welcome To Our Family Blog!

We hope you all enjoy reading about the happenings of our busy family on our new blog.

For the past four weeks, we have been doing some remodeling at our "new" house on Grand Oak Drive. We are enclosing the garage to make a mud room, a playroom, and to make the existing kitchen bigger. We are really trying hard to get organized so that every thing has it's own place, so we are adding some nice built in lockers, cabinets and book shelves to the new spaces. We are excited about our new kitchen island that will have plenty of space for me to spread out when preparing meals and room for the kids to sit at barstools to do homework, eat, etc. We are also looking forward to the new playroom so that the kids will have a nice downstairs spot to entertain friends, play video games, do art projects and all that other fun stuff that they like to do. I am thrilled about "my" new spaces, which will be an office area in the mudroom and a closet all to myself for my scrapbooking and sewing stuff. Scott is not really going to have his own space, but he might get his family room tv priviliges back when we get a tv in the playroom that the kids can watch...he's really tired of Sponge Bob! We should be done in a week or so with the remodeling...we can't wait!
