Here's a brief summary of what I'm up to:
Life has been very busy this year and finally is (kind of) slowing down after mid-August. I've been able to get a couple more house projects done and come up with a plan for the back yard and garden. It helped that this organization, ReLeaf Cville is giving us two trees (and planting them for us)!

Our wedding is coming up, so Anna is focused on the final details of that while I do more on our house. Teamwork makes the dream work, as she loves to say :)
