We had family in town this weekend so productively dropped a little bit.

• Family members visiting: 2
• Food brought by family members: tons*
• Custom furniture pieces acquired: 2**
• Vacation pictures shown: 75***
• Bags of leaves raked: 11****
• Hardware store trips: 1
• Mums replaced: 1
• Plants potted: 4

We also shifted around all the crap we have in our basement to prepare for some glass block work we’re having done this week (replacing the rotting basement windows with glass block).

 

*My mom was apparently cooking all last week and brought it all with her.  Chicken cacciatore, pulled pork, banana bread, granola… I’m afraid she doesn’t believe we eat.  We also have leftovers for about a month.

*I had a furniture design class my senior year in college which was ah-maz-ing.  My mom’s been storing assorted crap in the garage until we had space for it… which we do now!

***This was the edited version, I really took over 1500 pictures and eventually need to finished the photobook I was working on.

****When we were buying leaf bags Matt was convinced we’d only use about 3…. nope.  Our yard is small but deceptively leafy. Luckily there’s a compost site about 5 minutes away from us so disposal is easy (and free!), although we can only fit about 4-5 bags in either of our cars at a time.
