On Christmas day we got 7 inches of snow! Thus, we got to see our home for the first time covered. Very fun to see how different the house looks through each season.
My family was at our house for a week. We went sledding--great fun. I only took one picture of actual holiday visitors...must also take more pictures in 2011.
While my parents were here, my dad put up molding in our master bedroom--such a good dad! It's not 100% finished yet, nor is the painting in the room so pics soon to come. However, we did get a new piece of furniture from Habitat for the bedroom. Sneak peek of new bedroom color in background.
Also while my parents were here my mom and I did some fabric shopping. I got a sewing machine for Christmas so I'm hoping to whip at all sorts of new things...We bought some fabric to recover 2 dining room chairs and I also got a coordinating 13.5 yards to make dining room curtains. Stuart's mom is giving me sewing lessons so stay posted to see how the curtains turn out! I went ahead and recovered the chairs--need to eventually refinish the chairs but the cushions turned out well.

Underneath the before (always fun to see what fabrics your grandmother had on her chairs thru the years):
And after:
That's it for now. Many more projects coming soon...
