Spring is our favorite time :)

Visions from the garden...

Kitchen Window

This is a project from last summer. I have been really bad about blogging, but I am going to attempt to take more pictures and update for family and friends to see our progress. Jed was given a pretty nice 4-panel,double paned,crank-opening window that we decided to put in our future kitchen. The pics below are from a days work last June.  

Pre-window we just had a void where a door used to be.



Paul helped us get it ready.

We had to take the whole wall out to put it in.

Team Work :)

Our future kitchen window is in!

A view from the outside the day it was installed. Since then it has been primed and painted. I can't wait to have a real kitchen in this place one day!

Recycled Swing

Check out our sweet swing made from old pallet wood and fence boards. Special thanks to Theo and Josh for helping out with this one!

Green Grass and Gardening

We have been spending some time caring for our yard and it has been really encouraging. Green grass and fruit tress and succulent gardens and herbs have been adding new life and beauty to the area around our house. The recent rainfall has been great. We cant wait to see this place in the spring!

Baby Pines in our front yard and our swing in the background :)

Rosemary

We dug up the barrel cactus off I-8 on a road trip from SD to Austin in the summer of 2011. and built the planter out of a recycled limestone wall.

More coming soon!
