Inaugural Blog

As we have been renovating our little three bedroom, one bath home, I have been using other blogs as inspiration for organisation, theme, and creative ideas. One problem I have found as I search for ideas, I have yet to find any ideas for a small, one story house that is shaped like a rectangle. You know the rancher style I'm talking about. They were so very popular in the late 70's and throughout the 80's because they were cheap to build, and could fit on pretty much any size lot. Ours is on a third acre lot surrounded by many large trees. Kind of like a little cottage in the woods. We have big dreams for our little house and big yard, a few less trees that reach 100ft, a few more fruit trees and shrubs, a garden to plant vegi's and flowers. We have painted almost all the rooms, replaced appliances with new-to-us appliances, given the windows new facings to brighten and lighten. We still want to do so much with our little place and as we finish the details and continue to renovate (we have a babies room to get ready for the end of April!)
A few goals to look forward to this year: 
Finish our guest room and baby room
Finish the laundry room (right now the walls have unifinished dry-wall mud and there is no storage what-so-ever!)
Create a root cellar in the crawl space
Get my garden planted
and Renovate the bathroom.

 I hope that you will follow along, share ideas, and even borrow a few.
