another project.













My husband is a man of many projects. Maybe it's my fault-- the woman with an ever-changing and perpetually growing 'to do' list. My parents have this false notion that I am a slave driver... a husband slave driver.

On New Year's day, they invited us over for lunch mentioning to my husband that he should come down to visit so that I couldn't make him do any projects around the house on the holiday... That is just so NOT TRUE!

I happened to marry the kind of guy who has trouble just sitting around; He WANTS to be doing something and he enjoys projects {most of the time}. He enjoys fixing and building. And with a small home and a large family, we are always thinking of ways to improve and gain space.

We kinda have this running joke about our relationship: I tell people that my husband's back hurts from having to carry out my great ideas. But I know the truth, he likes my honey-do lists.

Great bunkbeds - are they toddler size? Isn't it wonderful to have a handy husband? Mine is so great with this kind of thing as well!

It bet the boys were so excited!
