For Journalings Sake

I'm going to be brave, for journalings sake, and post a few pictures of my house. One day after I publish this lil' blog of mine, I want my children to see a few things other than the stuff about them. So, here's my attempt at documenting a few spots in our house and sharing a little about the things I like to do.

~I love old things. The shelf in the picture came from my Grandma Goude's mom and the basket the books are in came from a 2nd hand store. I also have a habit of never finishing things...Notice that the bottom shelf is empty.

~Same area, slightly different view. I love to take pictures but can't ever decide which ones I really like so I end up keeping all of them. I love to read and am glad that both of my children seem to love to also.
~I made those pillows on the floor. A couple of years ago I figured out how to run a sewing machine all on my own. After wanting to learn for years I was pretty proud of myself for sitting down and just figuring it out. I can't sew well but I can sew enough to make a pillow or two. Now I'm just frustrated with the lack of fabric stores here.

~I love to constantly change my decorations around. Our house is too small to rearrange the big things, like furniture, so I make up for it by rearranging the little things. It drives Jason crazy. I rarely feel like any spot is exactly the way I like it so I'm constantly tweaking things. This spot used to look like this...

Spencer loves to sit at the desk that's barely seen and work on his puzzles, or any other activity he's trying to keep away from Sophie. Next change for this area: new photos.

After looking at the pics of a few other areas, I realized I have a lot of finishing touches to do before I publicly post them. Maybe that will be motivation enough. The bad habit of never finishing things is to blame, again.
