March Randoms

I have been really behind on posting pictures lately, but here are some random ones from this past month.  We have been busy with lots of "around the house" projects, including Spring yard work (cleaning up, redoing, and upgrading some flower beds), having our first floor bathroom redone, wallpaper removed and kitchen repainted, and just trying to do as much spring cleaning to downsize how much "stuff" we have (many things have been donated or thrown out as we try to steamline things).  While we aren't doing the bathroom and kitchen work ourselves, we have still been spending time on the weekends picking out and purchasing materials, like paint colors, new fixtures, etc.  I'll post some pictures, next, of some of the "befores," and "durings," and hopefully I will be able to post the "afters!"

We made pictures of things around the house..She had to find them and use a magnet stick to determine if it was magnetic..then glue it onto the correct page.
