Christmas Pictures
I have finally finished taking and editing our Christmas photos. I am lucky to have a baby that loves to ham it up for the camera! In fact, this family photo was taken with a tripod and Harrison looked right at the camera. It’s easy to get great pictures of him, because he does all…

Big Changes Ahead
When we bought our house we weren’t really looking for real estate. We were both in college and just happened to see an ad for a really cheap house. Everything just happened to work out right and we got a great deal on an awesome investment. Well, it has happened again. After seeing 2 feet…

Fireplace Before and After
When we bought this house, our favorite thing about it was the fireplace mantel that had seen better days. We started out by giving removing the mantel and stripping the many layers of paint off. Then we stained it to match the other furniture and wood floors in our house. But the most notable…

Chicken Run Door
Last fall we built a chicken run attached to our chicken coop. Unfortunately, we didn’t have enough time before the snow got too deep to add our door. Ryan ended up crawling through our chicken door to get into the run to shovel during the winter months. Keep in mind that door is 12″x12″.…

Chicken Tractor Modification
When we initially built the $40 Chicken Coop in May of last year, we thought about putting wheels on it to help with moving it around the yard. Like most projects we get into, however, we were racing to get the coop built before our meat birds were ready to go outside and just didn’t have…
