Life - Or Something Like it.: July 2010
http://racheltorbert.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Life - Or Something Like it. My life has always been a little chaotic - and chaos doesn't always leave time for phone calls and emails to catch up with friends and family. Being eight hours away from everyone makes it that much worse. So, I decided to be totally cliche and create a blog to keep in touch with family and friends at home. Tuesday, July 20, 2010. What I Like About Nebraska. Welcome to North Central Nebraska. And the Sandhills of Nebraska. True to it's name, there are a lot of hills. Well, ma...

For example, last night as I was writing my first entry for this little saga, I yelled to David, "Hey - name a famous sports writer.". Yes, I was...

No, not mine. Of course, Uncle Dave and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to take lots and lots of pictures. Even though I'm not technically ...

Waking up Laughing: Guest Room
http://rsmith829.blogspot.com/2012/05/guest-room.html
Sunday, May 20, 2012. The guest room the day I moved in. I picked the color "bell tower stone" by Valspar in Sherwin Williams paint. I love the color. It's rich but not too dark and the yellow really stands out nicely against it. I lived without a matching comforter for awhile. I found this duvet color set from West Elm. I almost love it more than my master bedroom! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm Rachel. I'm a wannabe DIY expert and photographer. I bought my first house in 2011 and have ...The i...

Waking up Laughing: Old Door Entryway Bench
http://rsmith829.blogspot.com/2012/04/old-door-entryway-bench.html
Sunday, April 1, 2012. Old Door Entryway Bench. The curtain rod on the back. I don't have a curtain on there now. I've thought about having a farm picture printed out and applying it to the back to show through the windows. The front after priming. First coat of paint. The very boring entry way before. The new and improved entryway. Mr Pig would like to welcome you! The last few weeks have been full of crossing projects off of the to do list. Can't wait to show some before and after pictures!

Monday, July 23, 2012. I’m not really sure where the time goes anymore! I can’t believe we’re looking at the end of July on the calendar already. I figured I would pop in with a summer update since I’m so good about keeping this updated. Does anyone even read this? I feel like this summer has been one of the best in more recent years. The native Minnesohtans can’t stop complaining about how hot it is, but for me it feels like the first real summer since I moved here three years ago! Next up – I spe...

Waking up Laughing: January 2011
http://rsmith829.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 6, 2011. Hopefully I don't lose my fingernail, but I'm not holding my breath. If I had someone to take a picture I would show my normal finger with the swelled one because it doesn't look that bad here but holding it up to the regular finger makes it look huge! Sunday, January 2, 2011. Happy New Year everyone! Another year has came and went, and I can't wait to see what 2011 has in store for me! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Pork, knife and spoon. Hey, What's new?

Waking up Laughing: February 2012
http://rsmith829.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 29, 2012. The last few of weeks have been one big roller coaster full of emotion. Ace's mom passed away on February 3 and my brother got married on February 8. I started, stopped, and restarted this blog post several times. I even thought about just skipping over it and instead writing a post about something I've worked on in the house recently. But I think I should write something about the last few weeks. The visitation and funeral were a true testament to how loved and missed she i...
