One week down!

It's hard to believe we've only been here a week. We sure have gotten a lot done in just a few days. Poor Brett has been doing his work during the day amidst all of the madness, then working on projects into the wee hours of the morning. I am so proud of him and feel so blessed to call him mine! 

Our shower is finally starting to look like a shower and I love it! Terry customized a seat for me and put in a soap niche. I also found glass panels online for a decent price and got those ordered today. It's not pretty yet, but here is what the frame of it looks like:

 They also got the door that went into the living room/kitchen covered up. Yes! Privacy at last! 😍

My big project for the day was to make curtain toppers. Unfortunately, as Brett said "It looked a lot easier on Pinterest." Haha I need to make seven toppers, and in about three hours I managed to complete one! Now, I would consider myself a crafty person, so I can't even imagine how long a project like this would take my mom. 😂😂😂 Here is the one I managed to finish. I love how it turned out so I am going to keep going with it.
In case you're wondering, the base is made out of foam that is hot glued and pinned together. The fabric is just pinned on so I can change it if I get bored with this fabric.

On our way back from the storage unit we decided to stop at the park that is nearby. 
The park is down off of the highway and right on the river. We found this sign, which made the boys REALLY excited!
 There is also a nice playground area and lots of picnic tables. I envision lots of picnics here in the near future!



That's all for tonight but I cannot WAIT to show you some pictures tomorrow because we have finally started to empty out our storage unit and decorate a little bit. It's really starting to feel like home now! 😍
