Friday was our first major snow day. We got about 4-6 inches of new snow from late Thursday through mid day Friday. It was the light fluffy snow because the temperatures were in the low 20's. It was very picturesque.
Saturdays picture show that Steve and I are at the redecorating projects again. The dining room was the first room we decorated when we bought the house 9 years ago. It has worked well but we always felt it was a little too formal for the house and the way we live and entertain. So it was off with the wall paper and crown moulding and in with the winter weekend paint and paper projects.
And Sunday is my favorite picture story. After Kristin moved out last summer Mike needed a couch. We found one in BG at a garage sale for $50, on a Friday after work. Not having the cash or a check we decided to think about it and come back later in the weekend. When we got back on Sunday the couch had a FREE sign on it. So it became Mike's first couch. The $50 was probably too much for the couch but the free was a deal. Flash forward to fall and Mike was home and saw a garage sale in the neighborhood. He walks down and sees a nice couch and wants me to go back with him. It didn't happen but voila in January the house has to be cleared out and the owner calls me up to see if Mike still needs a couch. His second free couch. This one is much nicer than the first.

Great pictures - Go Mike!!! I love his second free sofa!
The winter wonderland does look beautiful - however, your back yard is picturesque no matter the season!
I guess once you finished the kitchen - it is normal to continue moving to the dining room. I feel certain I will love it when it is completed.
Stay warm.
