Mimi Sue's Cottage

A home is much more than a house built of lumber, brick, or stone. A home is made of love, sacrifice, and respect. We are responsible for the homes we build. We must build wisely, for eternity is not a short voyage. There will be calm and wind, sunlight and shadows, joy and sorrow. But if we really try, our home can be a bit of heaven here on earth. Thomas S Monson

A Living Room Makeover

Daughter #2's new living room.
 
Sofa from Costco (!)
 
She made the slipcovers for the chairs.
 
And the pillows.
 
 
 
 
 


Cabinet on the right is part of her husband's grandmother's antique dining room set.



I think she did a great job on it.
 
Very calming and serene.
 
 
I just wish she didn't live four states away.

Sunny and Warm


The Mister and I made a quick trip to sunny and warm Arizona last week.
I wore my flip flops for three days!





To see these cute kids get married.  (Our nephew and his new bride)

There was yummy cake.

And a delicious dinner.

And on our way home, in a little town out in the middle of nowhere, I found a new project.
I wonder why the mister said NO?

He can be so unreasonable sometimes!
