built in bookshelves

As you all know, we have been doing a lot of projects inside the house waiting for the mosquitos to leave. Here are the before and demolition pictures from the living room and hallway renovations and the built in bookshelves we made from the studs in the wall. The first picture is the magazine picture which was the inspiration for the bookshelves.

Garden Harvest

I finally picked the pumpkin that grew out of last years discarded pumpkin seeds. I also picked the other things we had growing and arranged them for this picture. I wish I would have had some summer squash left and zucchini to add to the mix because we had those too.

Tooth Brushing

So, Steph brushes Trixie's teeth very frequently and the dog loves it. No kidding! It is quite a sight to see which these pictures don't do it justice. My favorite part is when Trixie is trying to lick the liver-flavored toothpaste while Steph is trying to brush the teeth at the same time.
