Adventures in Renovating: Still Making Changes
http://walkerrenovations.blogspot.com/2009/07/still-making-changes.html
Thursday, July 30, 2009. With our house on the market, we've been cleaning, finishing up projects and trying to get used to living in a depersonalized house. At least this is only temporary whether we end up moving or staying. The other day we decided that the black dishwasher amidst the white appliances and cabinetry in the kitchen was a huge eye sore. It only took us 2 years to change things! So, I picked up a white dishwasher (Craig's List! As you can see, the white dishwasher doesn't quite. My husban...

Adventures in Renovating: We've Moved!
http://walkerrenovations.blogspot.com/2010/08/weve-moved.html
Thursday, August 19, 2010. Well, we ended up selling our house, which means we're on to the next project.that is, once we find a house! We closed at the beginning of August and couldn't find a house in the Fan, so we're living in an apartment in the area until we find something. This room was originally called the "trunk room", which is usually located next to a bedroom and was literally where people would put their trunks full of clothes and other belongings. It's typically a smaller sized room, and...

Adventures in Renovating: Icing on the Cake
http://walkerrenovations.blogspot.com/2009/06/icing-on-cake.html
Sunday, June 14, 2009. Icing on the Cake. Curtains finish a room like icing on a cake. My mom made window treatments for our kitchen, living room and master bedroom- the last rooms that needed curtains in our house. My parents were in town this past weekend, so they brought and hung the treatments for us and they look amazing! My mom is really talented. The fabric is Kauffman's Slubby Linen in "Wheat". The hardware is wood with a bronze color finish. The Breakfast Nook and Kitchen. The vision was dead on!

Adventures in Renovating: April 2009
http://walkerrenovations.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 20, 2009. We had six cubic yards of mulch delivered to our house last week. It took us all day to spread it in the front yard, side yards, and backyard, but we think it was worth it! Hostas, impatiens, and some sort of Japanese spreading plant. Our grass is a little patchy- blame it on Shiloh who rolls and goes to the bathroom in it! Hydrangea, hostas, tulips and daffodils. This is the area on the right side of our backyard that meets with the alley behind our property. Fly Through My Window.

These are the guys in our couples small group. Most of them haven't known Curtis for very long, but apparently just long enough to know that there isn't anything he'd enjoy much more than some good Frisbee golf. Not gas, or a kidney stone, but that test thing)". Yes, congrats babe. Wednesday, January 25, 2012. For the artistic types, A...

Growing our family. transforming our home. pursuing our passions. becoming. August 2, 2012). It was just a good day. Good kids, good weather, good fun. And great pictures. Enjoy. This may be my favorite picture of Annabelle e.v.e.r.*. I know I should probably give God since He did "knit [them] together" in my womb, but I just have to say. Curtis and I made some cute. Ps one more thing. just wanted to prove that Annabelle is finally starting to grow a little hair! There are even a few curls!

Growing our family. transforming our home. pursuing our passions. becoming. August 20, 2011). Confession: my kitchen isn't the cleanest. I do try to keep it clean and yet the basic maintenance is about as far as I get. As proof. we had friends over recently and two of the guys ended up trying to scrub down my stove because it apparently looked that. 1 Put the burners into a seal-able bag. 2 Add half a cup (or even less) of straight ammonia. 3 Seal the bag. 5 Wipe clean with a sponge.

Growing our family. transforming our home. pursuing our passions. becoming. A quick visit and toddler kisses. July 7, 2011). Though we struggle sometimes to manage the balance between family and friends on our trips to Knoxville, we are almost always able to enjoy a visit with a few friends. This time, we had a fun dinner out with two families of friends. When the kids couldn't stay seated any longer, the dads took them outside to run around. Curtis started snapping pictures of the little ones. Loudly...

Growing our family. transforming our home. pursuing our passions. becoming. Since we moved to NC, we have been blessed to live closer to Curtis' cousin Mary Ellen and her family. (By "closer", I mean that they are now only 3 hours away from their home in New Bern instead of 8! Right now, it is just Mary Ellen and her two girls at home, because her husband Kevin deployed last August for Afghanistan. Please don't judge the "dumb and dumber" haircut on our son. Meanwhile, I loved having this sweet opportuni...

Growing our family. transforming our home. pursuing our passions. becoming. Because I spent the last 5 years either trying to conceive, pregnant, or caring for small children, I have been anxiously awaiting the day when at least one of my college roommates/dear friends would join me in this parenting adventure. How blessed I feel to have TWO "nephews" born into the 505 family (505 is the nickname for the house we all lived in during college) at the beginning of this year! Proud auntie :) with baby Henry.
