Blooms, Beams, and Berry Dreams

That's what Spring is made of!

It is beginning to look and feel like spring which puts me in the mood for Strawberries.

Early bloomers lack depth and do not have the same taste, texture or sweetness that June berries have. It's always better to wait for the real deal. However, that being said, they are hard to resist.

And, as the story goes, I could not wait. So, of course, we bought some 

and I made shortcake!

It did not disappoint as my expectations were in check.

YUM!!

The first blooms of spring

always make my heart sing.~ S. Brown

Oh, my achin' back!

Actually, not my achin' back but Mr. Wonderful's back. He does all the hard work and heavy lifting, which goes without saying. And today was no exception. 

The master bath is now gutted. The only thing left is the toilet, the cabinets (which, at this point, we are planning on keeping, but that could change) and a little tile that will all be removed and replaced once we have the new tile.

The photos say it all. 

A lot of debri that needs to be dealt with but other than that it is a beautiful day which calls for a BBQ! 

Happy Thursday!

Demo Day!

When your bathroom looks like a crime scene!

Out with the old, in with the...well, nothing yet.

Still in DEMO mode.

Mr. Wonderful hard at work!

My JOB . . . carry the pile of boards and tiles downstairs. 

Day ONE :: Mission Accomplished!

The sinks & toilet stayed. Everything else... 

. . . GONE!

That's a wrap, { for today that is }!

   

Happy wrecking ball Wednesday!

Oh Boy ~ Here we go Again!

 Mr.Wonderful is at it again!

Demolition has begun!

Demolition: the messiest form of therapy. 😜

BUH-BYE  old, DATED bathroom 

Our bathroom renaissance begins with a sledgehammer!

Happy Tuesday!

St. Patrick’s Day!

LEGO my Rome-o!

Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither was my LEGO Trevi Fountain. 

So, when your kids give you Legos . . .

. . . rebuild Rome (one brick at a time) !! 

😉

Our kids were home for a visit when I  finally finished the Trevi Fountain Lego they gave me for Christmas. They helped me fix a few of my mistakes first ✔

and then I completed the last 3 packages while they watched. 

We were all so excited when I attached the last piece! 

Needless to say, we are all 

LEGO MANIACS!

Okay, now for the Coin Toss . . . ( drum roll please )

Throw it in the fountain or spend it on 

more LEGO's?? 

 Decisions, decisions!
