Easter Weekend Shenanigans

I mentioned in my first post that I would post Easter things, here we go!!!

Ester weekend was a busy one. B and I rearranged the kitchen, enough to fit our table in there. This means we now have more room in the living room and we've added a couch. We still have major plans for the living room. I'm so excited to start working on the house and incoporating some things I've wanted for my 'real house'. More on that later. Saturday we focused on rearranging the kitchen. We made a platform with wheels and set our trash cans on top and rolled it under the sink. Woohoo space saver.
Before the trash cans were against the wall, taking up space

Now under the sink!

B built that thing with the wheels! So cool, thanks babe :)

For Easter we painted eggs. Sofie did hers with paint and I dyed mine with natural dyes. So fun.

Sofie's Eggs:


Here is Sofie painting them. She had so much fun, we need to paint more!

I'll post more updates soon with the rest of Easter and how I'm doing with the spring clean challange, until then.

    1. Hi, I'm glad you had a chance to check out my blog. I'll try to post more pictures of Sofie so you can see her. If you two can do once a month that would be amazing. Sofie talks about you two and Nana all the time.
      Hugs and kisses from all of us!

  3. Way to make it happen, you lovebirds! Getting things sorted is such a relief. I am loving finally figuring out the rhythm of our house because now I truly feel ready to tackle the clutter. Although it was frustrating, I'm so grateful that I waited to buy a bunch more stuff after that initial furniture purchase when we first moved into our new place. Now I feel prepped, knowing what needs to happen in what order, etc. These little fixes like your trash cans seems small but doesn't it make such a HUGE difference? Love it. Can't wait to come visit you guys soon. We owe you a visit since you've come out this way so often lately. And Miriam, let's ditch the kiddos with the men and go out for too long without 'em! Haha. Lunch at Thai Basil, perhaps? Yum yum!

  4. Woohoo to getting organized! The trash idea really helped give us more space in the kitchen. Now our table is in there and our living area has more room. Especially for the next phase. I love rearranging! I know you do too. Can't wait to see your ideas come to fruition in your home!
    Oh and please come visit whenever!
    Let's ditch the kids for entire happy hour, beach afternoon :)
