I think my desk might be in shock! I cleared off the growing pile of papers and found actual desktop beneath. Who knew? I'm getting everything clean and prepped before my trip since Grandma and Grandpa B are coming down to visit the weekend after I get back. I'm so EXCITED for them to visit. It'll be the first time they have seen my new place and I've lived here for nearly a year and a half. All the prep I can do ahead of time will be greatly needed, since I know it'll look like a bomb went off once I get back. Isn't it crazy how fast your spotless house can go from clean to a disaster area?!?
I got all house-warmy the other day and I decided to do a project in my front hall. I got a $15 shelf from Menards and a wall hook for about $3. My sister and I installed the shelf together while our pizza was baking. We of course couldn't find our stud finder, but I did find studs in an odd place far from where I wanted to place the shelf. I had to use the anchors they included, little did I know when I was borrowing my dads tools that I'd need a set of drill bits too! I had to run back to the house and get a set of bits. Once we had all the tools, it only took us a few minutes to get it up on the wall. My sister mainly read directions and checked on the pizza. I finally got around to hanging the Monet replica I bought at l'Orangerie (one of my favorite places). The frame and the picture together cost no more than $15. For around $30 I have front hall set up that works well. I'm constantly losing my keys. This is mostly because I have a penchant for throwing my keys onto my bed and then losing them in all the covers. Now, I am perfectly organized and I can avoid spending several panicked minutes in the morning searching for keys.

AHHH, that's so cute! So much cuter when I can see it all in a big picture instead of my wee little cell phone. Love you!
