NO TIME TO CATCH UP!!

So busy, no time to talk, only show pictures! CHECK OUT THE BADASSERY!

Temporary floor transition until Jay can get us the "special piece" haha. 

TV mount up... quarter round done... 

Quarter round, new paint, windows stained... and suddenly we had a family room!! TV, furniture, pup, and all! It's pretty amazing to see. And I KIND of heart my reclaimed wood wall...

And then the big project... the one everyone was worried about... the railing...

This is what we were dealing with... we basically took down a wall, and rolled a circular saw through the middle of the remaining studs, smacked a 2x4 on top, and VOILA, temporary railing! However the building inspector did not think it was up to code... [SHOCKING, I know]

So in our "Pros vs Joes" moment, we debated tackling it ourselves, or calling in someone who had done it before... "we" came to the decision of "Let's see how hard it could be..."

And the boys got to work... 

The end result:

Color me impressed!!!

And the thing's solid as Sears... Well done, gentlemen!

Who Says There's No Nature In The City??

So a few nights ago we noticed this in the backyard...

Do you see it? Look closer...

We have baby bunnies!! We found a nest a couple nights ago, you can see one still in it!

(well you can see the ear, at least... kinda...)

Then this morning, Nick sends me this picture:

With this caption:

"We played a little. Now I'm late for work."

Hehe... cuteness overload.

(and yes friends, I'm sorry, but I did have to dismantle some of the kissing booth to protect the little buggers. I didn't want them disturbed by a lawn mower... or a curious puppy!)

We May Be a Little Distracted...

This weekend, there may be a little less of the "Getting Sh!t Done" attitude we usually have around the Money Pit... 

We picked up our own little mongrel last night, (see the one with the white diamond on the back of his head?) although I did want to take all of them!

I think there are still a couple available, if you live in or around the Buffalo area. Let me know if you want one of these loves, it would be so cool for a friend to have one of his brothers or sisters!

So... we might be a little busy... updates to follow :)
