First Post!

I am completely new to the blog scene, or at least to tackling my own. Many of my friends have blogs and I think it is such a neat way of sharing ideas, posting photos and happenings for faraway family & friends, and just accounting day to day life that seems to fly by.

After living in Austin for five years, I finally bought my own home this past July. My quaint little place just screamed for some TLC, and I have enjoyed fixing it up and making changes here and there when I can. While painting, repainting, tearing down, building, and rebuilding, I have often wanted to document my home adventures. Creating this blog will hopefully fulfill this purpose and help me gain a little insight into other whimsical life lessons as they come.
