Mama got strong pheromones

Authors: Bungalow13

The mama bee that is.   
So, of course I posted a picture with " HELP" to Facebook as soon as I came home to the bee madness. Within 5 mins, a friend posted a link to local beekeepers (http://www.orsba.org/htdocs/swarm_call_list.php) that will come and relocate your bees for free. 
I called Glen who happens to only...

What the bee?

Authors: Bungalow13

I'm not sure when this first appeared but today I came home to thousands of bees swarming by our sidewalk. Upon closer look, I found an at least 1' x 1' beehive in our elm. 
Looking up exterminators right now.  Yikes!...

Since we are getting close to decor time and the fun stuff in the nursery, I thought I'd share some decorating inspiration.  Of course, I found it all on pinterest :)

Baby Sister's room-patch, plaster, priming phase

Authors: Bungalow13


Well, this weekend we made some great progress.  We greeted the weekend by fueling up with some Case Study Coffee and Bridgetown Bagels and then got to work.  First up, we loaded our car (wish I had a picture) completely with baby stuff for my brother-in-law and sister-in-law that we have had since their shower that...

With this baby's arrival quickly approaching, Steve and I decided that we better get back to work on a few projects.  We definitely haven't been moving quickly as our time continues to be consumed with selling off the family hoard (yes, we are still working on...

Trim Diagrams

Authors: Bungalow13

Before we went out to buy all the fir we needed for our dining and staircase, Steve decided it would be easiest to diagram the space. So what he did was just photograph the space, blow it up and then print it up in black and white.
Next he drew out all the trim we needed to add back in. Finally, he took measurements and wrote...

Baby Sister's Nursery

Authors: Bungalow13

On Saturday I will begin the third trimester and I can't believe how this pregnancy has flown by.

Dreaming of our little lady's nursery. 

Thinking mostly creams with touches of gold and pink and maybe a few other colors lightly pulled in the accessories.  The plan is still to have her in our room and we plan to move to...

Have any great projects coming up?   We still need to do all the trim work where we had our plaster patched and then maybe onto the basement...
