So this is one wall of our little kitchen. It looks like it needs a little work, and a few more cupboards. The rest of the kitchen needs just as much work. There is very little storage, not nearly enough for our dishes or food, and there is no place for a pantry. There...

I’ve never been a fan of the Brown Frown. Before we move into our new little Farm House, we need to give it a quick makeover. I’m starting with the bedrooms so my Tribe can claim their space and call it home. The shelves are coming down and primer is going up. Good-bye to the...

I had hopes and plans for this week. With 5 sick kids, none of it is getting done. As frustrating as it is, I am OK with it. The 3 big kids have had high fevers since last night and when I thought Owee’s had gone down, it came back. Honey Nut had the...
