Welcome!

     New year, new house, new blog! It seemed only natural, now that the hubby and I are settled back in Georgia, for us to make a new blog to reflect these big changes.

     Today marks six weeks since we moved into our first home! These six weeks have seemed to absolutely fly by, and we have kept very busy. Here are some of the numbers behind these six weeks in our home.

17 - the largest dinner party we have hosted (Dustin's side of the family for Christmas Eve)
11 - sets of blinds installed
8 - strands of lights and garland decorating our house for Christmas
7 - dinner (or brunch) parties we have hosted since moving in
4 - trips to Lowe's made in one day in order to install kitchen cabinet hardware

     And we have had far too many trips to Lowe's and Home Depot to count. Those stores are quickly becoming our favorites!

     Even with all the late night trips to get hardware to finish a project that is always more difficult than it appears, I wouldn't change a thing about our decision to move into our house! Dustin and I have loved diving into these projects, and we are becoming a great team. So, as our "Honey Do" list continues to grow, it just means that we have more opportunities to make this house "ours" and to make some great memories along the way.

     I look forward to using this blog to share our home improvement projects, snapshots of daily life, recipes, and anything else to keep you "Catching up with the Colwells". Thanks for visiting!
