Projects Galore

Another week of knocking out a huge amount of projects!  I wish it could be summer all the time!!!

1.  I finished getting all of the recipes into our new online program.  You should all check it out.  Its called “Pepperplate” and despite the stupid name, it works great.  You input all your recipes, you can plan meals, share recipes, print shopping lists, etc.  Now I wont lose any more recipes!

2.  Thanks to Kayla, we kicked butt and got everyone's school supply shopping done!  Although I must say I am irritated at stores for already having school supplies out.  Its still July people!!

3.  Bob worked all week on the finishing touches for the deck and it looks awesome!

4.  We worked on some décor for the high school library (this was all Kayla!)

5. We took a family trip to Anamosa to deliver 2 cars full of stuff I needed there.  We ended up redecorating the high school library.  I went to Rockwell surplus and got a circulation desk worth $3000 for free!  So exciting!

We set up a new comfortable reading area with a new rug I got with double coupons!

Because the school is getting 200 new chrome books, I was able to get most of the awful computers taken our of the library.  We used the white computer tables and I got new matching blue chairs from Rockwell as well (the custodian got them for me).  I am so thrilled how its starting to come together!!
