Month: December 2013

There was a time when I felt as though I was becoming a familiar face here on the blog. However, the year or so that I spent making monthly contributions is now but a vague and distant memory. For those of you who are relatively new here, my name is Jason.

Now that a lot of the bigger projects downstairs have been tackled, it’s time to get back to work upstairs. We made over Lillie and Lola’s room shortly after we moved in so they would be comfortable but other than that we didn’t do anything upstairs for the first couple of months.

So I wasn’t thrilled with my first attempt at our Christmas Card picture so we tried again. I still didn’t get what I was hoping for (I think it’s a pretty shot of Lola but Lillie’s out of focus a bit) but at this point I am out of time so we are going ahead and using the one above for the front and a couple of the ones below on the back (and then a bunch of pictures from throughout the year inside.)  You can see last year’s card here, the year before here and the year before that here.

As I mentioned earlier this week during our Christmas house tour I am back now with the details on our new sideboard and lamps. I started looking for a sideboard and hutch pretty much as soon as we moved in this summer and for the last several months this room has been pretty much empty except for the table.
