We're gonna be neighbors soon!

Got me some keys and a fancy garage door opener - I feel like such a grownup!

How goes the wedding plans?

    Sorry I missed this yesterday!  Congrats!!!

    Wedding plans are going well, I am finally getting into the swing of things and getting stuff done.  And I'm having wedding dreams again, ugh.  I've been putting together my to-do list and now its getting overwhelming.

    We're doing landscaping outside this weekend, and by "we" I mean Andy and his mom.  His mom is helping us update our landscaping as a wedding gift so we're laying some stones, planting bushes, etc etc.  The outside of our house needs some beautifying.

    Are you ready to start tearing down wallpaper???

    Glad the planning is going well - just chug away at the list one item at a time. It'll all get done sooner or later.

    That's a really cool gift you should post some before/after pics for us to see the new look!

    I'm not ready lol. But the first layer (yes I said first) peeled off by hand so hopefully layer two comes off easily with the stripping machine. Its going to look good once we're done but we've got some projects ahead of us.

    Good luck, hope the moving is going well!  I've never removed wallpaper before, but I know it can be pretty difficult sometimes, especially in rooms with moisture and temp changes, like the bathroom and kitchen.  Our house had some pretty tacky carpet when we moved in, but we removed it and have the hardwood now.  But I also heard they had fantastic wallpaper in every room, but lucky for us, they removed it all and put up a neutral paint throughout to sell it.

    I am not doing much of the landscaping...its mostly Andy and his mom.  I just make an appearance and help out occasionally so I don't look like a bum.  But right now, Andy is laying all the stones which requires more skill.  He did landscaping in college though so he can handle it.  The plants and stuff will come in the next couple weekends...

    And YOU will have to post some before and after pictures!!
