Gingerbread Pumpkin: January 2010
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 21, 2010. Come Meet the Girls! Well, last Sunday afternoon, we went to a farm and picked up a few hens! I had my mind made up before we got them, that they should have the names of 1940's housewives, so I did a search of the most popular girls names of the 1920's. Baby girl, Little Man, and I chose these. Hubby thinks it's a little silly and said he'll probably just be saying, "the yellow one with the white dots" - he's so bad! She's the first to "greet" you! They are so cute with them!

Gingerbread Pumpkin: February 2010
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 25, 2010. A couple of week-ends ago, on a beautiful, crisp, sunny day, we had to run to town to pick up some things from Lowe's. Since all 5 of us were together, we did something we haven't before. we split up. Hubby and son dropped us girls off at Antique Alley and they went to on to the hardware store. Franny hadn't been in a while and she found LOTS of goodies - including a dinette from either the 40's or 50's. It has the aluminum trim and legs - VERY neat! Excellent condition, too!

Gingerbread Pumpkin: November 2009
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 27, 2009. Happy 22nd Anniversary, Love! From the first time I met you ( a year before our 1st date), I knew you were so very special. It took us a year to get to this day and then I didn't hear from you for a teenager's eternity. but . I'm so happy that you finally called this nerdy girl back so that we could be here, a year later, with me adoring you! And you adoring me. And you placing one of the most beautiful corsages (that you always bought me) on my wrist! Friday, November 20, 2009.

Gingerbread Pumpkin: June 2009
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 22, 2009. Well, we're back online (for now! Not sure if the precautions we've taken are going to work, but we certainly hope so. We know that we have no support, or protection, from our internet. A few things going on since we've been "gone" . finally got some of the babies hung (these frames didn't have picture hangers on them and they're made of some kind of resin - it took a while to find a solution and we were bogged down with other things! They're up now, however! Some of our baby girl.

Gingerbread Pumpkin: September 2010
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 20, 2010. Our Foyer and Hallway. Since I'm watching the Saints game, I'm sitting still. Since I'm sitting still, I have time to post. I'm so very behind in everything. We're still working on the kitchen. We've been held up by the cabinet guy and Lowe's. You just can't ever tell how long a project will take, no matter how well you plan and how hard you work - can you? In remodeling, just as in life, there are things (many things) beyond our control. .sigh. We also replace the light.

Gingerbread Pumpkin: August 2010
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 16, 2010. It's Been a Long, Hot, Miserable Summer. And I've just felt so "yucky" that I thought I might be contagious. I didn't want to spread those feelings on to you, my sweet friends. I truly didn't mean to just walk away from here like I did but I just didn't have the energy to pick up the computer. I walked away from the computer as a whole. Have you ever felt like this? Glorious rain from our Father! Here's some of the lighter moments:. Baby Girl and Franny had a little tiff and I ma...

Gingerbread Pumpkin: Our Pantry Remodel
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2010/11/our-pantry-remodel.html
Thursday, November 11, 2010. These first pictures are just downright nasty - but they must be seen. For almost 2 years, this little storage room looked like this (except with more stuff on the floor - this pic was snapped after the flooring was ripped up). Things were just placed in there and hurriedly, we would shut the door. I wanted this area to have an old general store look to it. I adore bead board but didn't want to go to the expense - so I got on the internet and ordered the most inexpensive ...

Gingerbread Pumpkin: April 2010
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 29, 2010. Ours walks on water. That's what a sign out front a little country church said. I love reading church signs! They're always so clever. I always think I'm going to write them down and share them with y'all, but I've always forgotten to - until this time. Oh well, keeps ya out of trouble, huh? I finally finished stripping/staining/sealing hubby's nightstand. Here's the before (excuse the mess, just keepin' it real! You can see that he needed a bigger nightstand. He built and distr...

Gingerbread Pumpkin: Living Room Remodel - Complete
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2010/11/living-room-remodel-complete.html
Wednesday, November 3, 2010. Living Room Remodel - Complete. And so, here we were, almost finished with the living room. We couldn't put the hole in the wall until we were ready to begin the kitchen remodel (because on the other side of the wall was a wall oven and a couple of cabinets). So we lived with the tape on the wall (and our dreams of the hole-to-be) for 2 years! It didn't take long to make the hole, but then hubby had to move the gas line (yep, he's brilliant like that! This is a close-up of th...

Gingerbread Pumpkin: December 2009
http://gingerbread-pumpkin.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 20, 2009. We pray that y'all are having a Merry Christmas! I wanted to share a few more pictures before Christmas and I really kick into high gear with the baking, etc. I also wanted to give a few product endorsements (strange, I know! For SOME reason, blogger moved this picture to the bottom of my post - so if you see it down there and wonder what I was thinking. it wasn't me! I've been trying to move it for 30 min! Lastly, Dial cranberry soap! Okay a few scenes from around our home: th...
