And one day it snowed...


A bit blurry, but it sure felt like we were living in Juneau again. Without all the snow plows and proper shovels though. Poor Salem just got hit with 8-12 inches of snow in 24 hours. FUN and crazy for our poor city who can't quite handle this amount of snow when we normally get none. Brian and I spent one evening after work shovelling. Because the weather forecast called for freezing rain the following day and then temperatures up to 40 degrees F. And we all know what that does to snow.


If you are ever in a need, a board works pretty well as a shovel. 


And of course I made a snowman.

Kitchen is almost finished!!!

Above:
Before..messy, pastel green wall color and some other not so fun features. 

After the paint job, the indoor lighting doesn't do the colors justice.


And, after new solid surface counter tops were placed with an under-mounted sink (YEAH!) and a tile backdrop. 


My hubby just needs to hook up the under plumbing for me and I can use the sink. Can't wait! It's been 3 weeks and counting till I've had a kitchen. Not a terribly long amount of time, but long enough.
