Summer is Right Around the Corner!!

Technically, I have to work until June 22 but it feels like summer & freedom is right around the corner. No summer school for this girl. Woot.

I'll be taking a class this summer, but it is online so it won't be too inconvenient. Besides that, I have a list of projects that I want to work on around the house.

House To Dos:

• Organize "Treadmill" Room- (bookshelves, closet)

• Gather pictures and hang frames on upstairs landing- Something similar to this, but smaller scale

• Style bookshelves on either side of fireplace

• Reorganize laundry room

• Organize old pictures into photograph boxes

• Put up two floating shelves in master bath

• Hang pictures in basement bath

• Hang pictures in master bath

• Hang pictures in guest room & organize guest closet

• Organize closets in master bedroom

• Organize space behind wet bar in basement

• Install cabinets in basement for tv area (I will not be tackling this one)

• Paint main floor? (Gil is not convinced on this one haha)

• Paint or find fabric to accent cutouts:

Lots to do...can't wait to tackle our house!

On another note, Laila is passed out and snoring at my feet. She had a play date with her boyfriend, Wrigley, yesterday. She was pretty happy about that. Of course they stopped playing when I whipped out the iPhone.

Last summer when they played, she was so little! And I forgot to mention at the beginning of May, Laila turned one! This has been great in our household because she hasn't been chewing as much so we've been able to leave her out of her crate for short periods of time when we leave the house. I think she likes her newfound freedom. Hopefully it won't be too long until we can always leave her out. She still has slip-ups every now and then, like this:

Dang it, Laila!

...Now I'm off to go enjoy this sunny, 80 degree day. Three cheers for long weekends!
