Working...slowly

This past winter, we have been working away at little projects around the house (if there is such a thing) and we are slowly seeing the results.

We have almost finished the bathroom/laundry on the main level. We have replaced the flooring in Ella's room and I was challenged to creatively re-decorate her room.

I have also been decluttering and getting rid of lots of stuff! I gave my good friend Martha all of ella's beautiful clothing from baby size onwards, got rid of all my baby stuff, toys galore, books and more books, furniture, linens, knick knacks, etc...I just wanted it gone! I tend to hang onto things because there is memories connected to them...but I'm learning that I can let them go and still have the memory. I am learning to keep only the very best and part with the rest. I love giving things away to a good home...especially to my friends and those in need.

Now all I have to do is take some photos and post them here to prove to my sister that I have done something!
