Housework

We have begun cleaning up the house. I am working on wallpaper (an endless chore) and Todd is building a wall in the master bedroom. He is boarding up one side of a 2-way closet door that once connected to the office. The pictures will hopefully explain it. The second picture shows the green office behind Todd (he is standing in the closet). Todd measured once and everything fit perfectly...he is really good at anything he tries. Well, it's been fun making it into our place. There is a lot to be done! As you can see we picked the perfect weekend to start our projects...there was snow! It was pretty cold but we got the heat going. Today it warmed up to 50 degrees...almost T-shirt and shorts weather ;)

Wow...and right to work you go! I didn't realize Todd was such a handyman! Good for you. That makes things a lot easier (right?)!
Keep those pics coming our way!

Hi Todd & Melissa,

The house is looking great. Things are coming along. Todd that wall looks great. I didn't know you could build walls. Melissa you did a good job at taking that wall paper off. I'll bet it was hard work. Snow looks really great on your home. Love you both. Mom
