Let There Be LIGHT!



We finally have lights in the addition, both garage and master bedroom.
Or, maybe I should say working lights.


I can not even describe how excited I was when those lights went on.
I even yelled when they turned on.
I think I drove our electrician crazy because I kept turning the lights on and off.
I told him that we were going to go to bed with them on.
The only thing I have left to do is install the dimmer switches.
Five chandeliers does give off a lot of light.
I think my favorite lights might be the ones over the fireplace.
When I get home from work I turn them on for the night.




They just sparkle!
 

The garage is all lit up too.


We have great task lighting for those projects that need to get done.


I ordered 5 of these from Wayfair.
Love the vintage look and not the cost.


These outside lights are my favorite.
We found them at Home Depot.
I wish they had matching hanging lights for the deck.


New sensor lights, now our guests won't trip over the bushes.
We reused the side lights from before the addition.

Mr. M. and I are over the moon happy with how the addition of the garage and master bedroom are turning out.

This weekend we finish up putting the trim in the mudroom.
Then let the painting begin.

Thanks for stopping by.

Enjoy Life


 Well of course.

I have no set resolutions.
I have no word of the year.

But.
Plan
To 
Enjoy
Life.

The other night I told the kids the motto of the day is;



They thought that was hilarious and what is tomorrow's motto.
I love to find fun quotes on Pinterest to put on the chalk board.

Some of my favorites.

So true.  Each day you wake up is a day to start fresh.  Put on a smile.

Memories are a wonderful thing.
I like this.
Hey that's me!



After being on vacation for two whole weeks, they have had enough of each other. One day back to school and now a snow day.  
Me, I'm going to work.

For my children today.

Do your chores.
Read your books.
Play some games.
Watch some movies.
Be happy.

Today's party is with Marty from A Stroll Thru Life for Inspire Me Tuesday.
  Thank you Marty for the invite, I'll be wearing my sparkly party dress.

New Year


Happy New Year!








Clock faces were found here.


My wise young son has a saying that we love.

Today is yesterday's tomorrow.

I hope you have some wonderful tomorrows.
