Happy House-iversary!

Two years ago we closed & moved into our house.  I shudder to think of how many times we went back & forth between our old apt. & the house during moving weekend.  We hired movers to take care of the big & heavy stuff (washer/dryer, kitchen table, living room, bedroom suite, etc) but did the rest ourselves.  Sunshine's room was the first to be set up & I'm proud to say that all boxes were quickly unpacked & things put in their new homes.  

When we moved in we had a to-do list a mile long.  Here's what we wanted to do & what we have done:

Foyer:
replace light –done!


Sunshine's room:
