Summer List

This summer I wanted to accomplish many things. Here is my list of want I had in mind I wanted to accomplish:

1. Lots of swimming time with Lily
2.Run more I am up to five miles...yay
3. Paint Living Room (not sure this is going to happen)
4. Organize the Play room...almost there
5. Lots of Shopping
6. Go to the gym

Neways, my first project I decide to do was organize Lily's playroom. Lily's playroom is our old dining room. I sold my table back in January or February. I know, I sold my dining room table. Well, considering her room is upstairs and there is NO playroom in this house, I had to find the space somewhere. We never have big family dinners at my house neways, so I said "Why not" it will give me a place to keep ALL the toys. I have actually been very happy with my decision. The only time I missed the extra chairs is when we had her birthday party. But I had extra fold out chairs, so it all worked out. Well, here is what her room looked like before a trip to IKEA...which by the way, I LOVE!!! I can't wait to go back to get more stuff for the house:)





Now here is the room after. I still need a couple more pieces before I am completely satisfied with the room. But I really did not want to spend close to $300 on ALL three pieces.


I got the storage bins there in the middle of the picture yesterday at IKEA.


Lily just got that Kitchen set and Washer and Dryer from my Aunt Patty. It was my cousins when she was a kid. They are probably about 15 years old. They are still in great condition. They just needed a little cleaning and they were like NEW again...thanks Aunt Patty:) Here is Lily cooking me up a yummy meal in her kitchen!!



As for my summer list....well not sure if I will paint the living room. We are going to try and put in hardwood floors this fall, so I was thinking I was just paint then. And going to the gym more, well since I have been running outside ALOT, I figure not going to the gym more is okay. I do go at least once a week, but that is not nearly enough:( As for the rest of my summer is still pretty much the same...laying by the pool and running:) I am going to go to my mom's for a week in July, but that's about it!!! Till next time...have a great fourth of July everyone!!!
