With what happened in Japan I am thinking of getting together a place where I can store emergency supplies. I have a small spot in the laundry room and was thinking of going to home depot to get a shelf of some kind to hold canned foods and other things. This would help a lot.
We have a couple – tile the dinning room and paint and install flooring in the living room.
We are finishing our basement this year and adding a privacy fence and wood playset for the kids.

We always have a million projects going on. We would love to build garden boxes in our backyard so we can plant more food during summer.
Where do I start??!!?? Maybe with the French doors that we are saving up to replace because they won’t open.
We need to plant our tomato garden.
I like you …. on facebook 🙂
We too have an endless list of plans, but the most important to us right now is spending some blood sweat and heavy labor making our garden more functional. We aim to have a good enough garden to be able to cut costs on fresh vegetables through the summer, and enough tomatoes and cucumbers to can to last the whole year through!

I have a home daycare and two young girls of my own so I feel that we are always trying to update and do projects around our home. Just a few things on that list of many projects is some re-painting, replace some boards on our deck, replace the kitchen faucet, and the windows are in much need of replacing. Thank You!
