The ongoing list of projects doesn't seem to end, although I'm not complaining.  I'm loving the changes we're making!

My first attempt at distress painting, on my frame, was a success.

We had a small side table under this picture that had seen better days.  So, I decided to sand it, paint it white and then distress it, using the same color as this frame.  I think it turned out pretty nice!  Luna seemed to think so as she checked it out.
Dave has gotten into the repurposing spirit as well.  I brought the coffee table back out into the living room and it looked a little bland.  He remembered the stack of tiles that Susan and Peter had left us, so he went to work, customizing the table top.  The grout is drying and all that's left to do is seal it.  He did a great job!
We're still working outside, moving some rocks around and making room for pea gravel to make it easier for Chacho to get around.

After that, I have several pictures to hang, and some changes coming up in the guest room.

Thursday is our housewarming party/BBQ and that deadline has helped motivate us to get projects done.

    In May, 2019, we fell in love with Albuquerque and the Land of Enchantment.  We moved into the house of our dreams and will share our misadventures with home ownership!

    ​We'll also share the beauty of this area as we get to know our adopted home.
