Project #1: Clean out the shed. I wish so badly I had taken a before picture...but let's just say that when you opened the door things literally fell out on you. We bought this house almost 5 years ago and the shed was left about 1/2 full of old lumber, tool tables, etc. We just piled our things in there as well, and have kept piling for the last 4.5 years! It was quite the task, but we are thrilled with the results!
Project #2: Paint the shed. As you can kind of see from the top of the shed, it was in desperate need of a coat of paint. My wonderful husband painted it while the rest of the played in the slip and slide!
Project #3: Clean the laundry room! We have these wonderful shelves that have been piled with tools and over flow from the kitchen since we moved in. Now that the shed is clean, Lincoln can move all of his tools out to the shed! I'm so excited about having a clean, organized laundry room. My father in law is making me dividers to go in these shelves as well, so that I can stand my pans up and get to them easier.
Project #4 took no time at all! I had been wanting covers for my chairs on the front porch, but didn't want to spend the money on them. My mom bought new furnature for her front porch and these came with it. She didn't want them, so they found a new home on my chairs! Don't they match the siding and shutters perfectly?! 
Project #5: New kitchen faucet. I don't know how old our other one was, but it wasn't shutting off the water properly, and then the top part of it just simply fell off! It was definitely time for a new one! My husband and his Grandpa put this new one on for me. I love how shiny and clean this one is!
Coming soon...a new bedroom for Graysen! We are slowly but surely working on getting Graysen transfered to her new bedroom! She thinks she's ready to sleep in her own room (although we'll be leaving the bunk bed in their current room in case she's not!), and I'm ready for the kids to be more responsible for their toys (and not just shut the playroom door), so the switch is being made. We've got new paint picked out, and we're working on the logistics of rearranging things between the two rooms. I can't wait to show the finished product!

You guys have been busy! Everything looks great, and I can't wait to see Gray's new room!
Wow! You are making it right through your list! Although I'm sure the pictures make it look faster than it really was! lol And I'm sure you have other things on the list...but what a great start! How exciting for Graysen...I remember picking out paint for my first room! :) Keep enjoying summer with your precious family!
