The Newest Addition

Two years since my last post and only minor house decorating...until now. The newest big addition to our home is a puppy! Please meet Hank. He's a German Shepherd, Lab and Mastiff rescue from Tennessee. Named after Pete's Grandpa Hank.

It's amazing how fast you fall in love. And more importantly, just how much better he makes every room in our house look. He's our living décor...

 

Beautiful Bedding

Thanks to Mary Ann for the beautiful bedding for the office pull out. Our guests can cozy into the cute polka dots and stripes.

The Man Cave

I asked MaryAnn to find a place for Pete's bull head (Willie) and his stuffed fish. And guess what?? After a quick scan of the condo, she opened the door to the back stairwell and said ... "out here." Ha! So Pete now has a man cave! Complete with a dumbwaiter turned bar.

Cleaning Machine

MaryAnn whips us into shape. She cleaned every inch of the house! She also decorated every room. Yay!

A Fresh Take

The desk from when I was 8 years old was a little outdated. It was time for a facelift. Pete and I even built a shelf to make it a corner desk.

Painted the drawers one shade lighter than the main frame.

Fish...just for Pete.
