Saturday, March 30, 2013. Mish Mash - Rules are for Sissies. Home, after all. It's now 2013 - Break time is over. My foot is wedged on the gas and the gear is stuck in 5th! My ideas have been overflowing and I'm kicking down as many barriers as I can to make them happen. If you love them, great! If not your cup of tea, that's okay too. I can only hope that I've inspired you to be true to yourself. Now a few hints of what's to come. What comes to your mind when you hear the word Industrial? Do you think of.

Smitten...by Abigail: Mish Mash Part 4 ... Pantry Conversion Reveal
http://smittenbyabigail.blogspot.com/2013/06/mish-mash-part-4-pantry-conversion.html
Sunday, June 30, 2013. Mish Mash Part 4 . Pantry Conversion Reveal. Last week, I left you wondering why Mr. Smitten was inside the pantry closet. Well, today I'll let you in on what he was up to. First a back story (there's always a back story). When I first decided to build an office/art room. I realized it was the time to do something about it. No need for too much space as we've become more and more paperless. Fantastic industrial photograph I found while thrifting. Posted by Abigail Rigby. From Girly...

Smitten...by Abigail: From Girly Fru Fru to Girly Chic - Bedroom Makeover Reveal
http://smittenbyabigail.blogspot.com/2011/12/from-girly-fru-fru-to-girly-chic.html
Saturday, December 31, 2011. From Girly Fru Fru to Girly Chic - Bedroom Makeover Reveal. I left you with a bit of teaser and didn't share with you what my daughter and I decided on for colors and decor. Sorry! Grandpa Jun came to the rescue and offered to sponsor this change as her birthday present. Sweet! I had a $300.00 budget. Thank you, Grandpa! Just perfect since I know how to bargain shop like no other! Okay, no more waiting. Here you go. Do you love it? For the paint on the walls, we chose Valspar...

Saturday, July 21, 2012. Getting Antsy. The Planning Stage Has Begun. First, let's pick apart this not-so-larger-than-life space, shall we? Oh, I'm sorry! Did I just walk into another person's house? Nope, it just looks like the same ol color scheme as every one's house in a twenty mile radius. Still no window treatments. Booooring! What look was I going for, exactly? I'm not sure myself! My very first overpriced wall decor purchase. I'm not big on giving too much away. Where's the fun in that? Mr and Mr...

Smitten...by Abigail: Marie Antoinette, Eat Your Heart Out! Art Room Reveal
http://smittenbyabigail.blogspot.com/2011/11/marie-antoinette-eat-your-heart-out-art.html
Monday, November 28, 2011. Marie Antoinette, Eat Your Heart Out! I've decided that it's time. Time to let you all in on what I've been keeping from you. I started this project about six months ago, so don't say I didn't warn you. This is going to be one monster of a post! Look at that paint! Cringe* Look at that back wall! There was no purpose whatsoever for it to be shaped like that! My inspiration for this room? Pre-Revolutionary France, Patina Furniture and Eddie Ross. Don't know him? I still have so ...

Sunday, April 15, 2012. Come and Stay Awhile. Guest Bedroom Reveal. Did everyone have a fantastic weekend? Mine was extremely productive - So happy to have some energy back! Those commutes to and from Salt Lake City have been whooping my arse for the last few weeks and the result was = no result. for anything! During my last reveal, my Living Room. Due to budget restrictions, this took a little over a month and a half to complete. Being the impatient person I am, this delay was utter torture for me!

Smitten...by Abigail: A Bit More Breathing Room... Living Room Makeover
http://smittenbyabigail.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-bit-more-breathing-room-living-room.html
Saturday, September 14, 2013. A Bit More Breathing Room. Living Room Makeover. There is nothing I love more in the world than my family. BUT we all became a bit claustrophobic when trying to relax on this sofa at the end of the day. Personal space became nonexistent. We needed a change - not because we grew bored, but because we desperately needed some breathing room. Aaaaaaahhh. I can breathe. Gotta love Home Depot for their fantastic sales on extra large rugs. You can never go wrong with extra seating.

HeckLures' Northern Adventures: Picture day
http://bigheckfamily.blogspot.com/2014/10/picture-day.html
The Alaska Bucket List. Wednesday, October 8, 2014. I don't even try to hold them back with their clothes choices - picture day is a perfect example:. In true Abby fashion, she is sporting a very fashion-forward (and loud) ensemble. I'm fairly certain the clothing designers in NYC are jealous. Thomas, on the other hand, has chosen to wear his "Alaskan" vest despite the morning temperature starting out at 71 degrees. I have no idea where the fashion sense comes from, but they sure are cuties..

The Alaska Bucket List. Tuesday, July 29, 2014. Official Move In Day. Truck #1 arrived at 8:45 am. 10 crates offloaded.. Truck #2 arrived at 2:30pm. 6 more crates offloaded.. The trucks were gone by 4:45pm. Brian and I crawled in bed at 9:50 pm absolutely exhausted. Cheers to unpacking the rest of the week and setting up the house! We already have a laundry list of projects - building, painting and redecorating are all forthcoming! Tuesday, July 29, 2014. Links to this post. Monday, July 28, 2014.

HeckLures' Northern Adventures: February 2014
http://bigheckfamily.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
The Alaska Bucket List. Friday, February 28, 2014. Something to call her own. For the last few weeks, Brian and I have noticed that Marilyn has seemed a bit "off.". She is more clingy. She is more defiant. She is more argumentative with all of us. Of course, this sounds a lot like the Terrible Twos. Thankfully, Marilyn really hasn't been plagued by that "TT" bug this year. Instead, we think this is something different. What we're chalking this change up to is that she has nothing to call her own. Wordles...
