August 2007-We got the keys!
As soon as we closed on the house we started attempting to refinish the hardwood floors ourselves. We screwed them up and ended up having to pay twice as much to get them done the right way. Now if it is a bigger task then painting we hire someone to do it:)

Brox's Nursery
Brox's nursery was featured on the homepage of project nursery and was nominated for nursery of the month.
I used chalkboard paint on the closet door and had mom write this Winnie the Pooh quote on it. Jordan and I were searching for the perfect quote that would have meaning form us to Brox and as soon as I came across this I cried and we both new it was perfect.
I had this custom made on etsy with Jordan's badge number.
Free wall art using the left over fabric from the bedding and curtains grandma made. The bird is from the custom baby shower thank you cards.
Vintage frame I already had hung over a cross stitch quote from etsy
Old records from mom's house. Some were mine and Sherry's and some were my aunt Tammy's
The "sunshine" sign was the first purchase I made for the nursery. My mom and I used to sing this together when I was little.
