Painting another room

Posted by Jess | Filed under General, House

Hopefully this is the final room in the entire house that needs a new color. The guest room is now a pretty shade of beige with some photos and rearranged furniture. Come visit and stay in our recently remodeled guest suite!

October & November Catch Up Post

Posted by Scott | Filed under General, House, Vacation

Loyal Blog Readers: Boy, it’s been a long time since we’ve heard from you, what’s been going on with Scott and Jessica? ScottandJessica.net: Funny you should ask, we’ve actually been pretty busy the last few months. Loyal Blog Readers: Well, as far as we know, the last thing that happened was a few people visited [...]

Extreme Office Makeover

Posted by Jess | Filed under House

Scott and I decided to makeover our office (aka the “command center”) this past week. Let me tell you, it was quite the task. In our command center lives three working computers (not inlcuding laptops) and thousands of computer parts, which put together probably could make about 12 other computers. So yeah, the office was [...]

Random Pile of Photos

Posted by Scott | Filed under House, Vacation

We’ve been collecting a few random photos fro a little while now. They don’t really have a specific place of their own to live on here. Several are from our anniversary last month. We kept the top tier of our wedding cake (it survived 2 moves!), and ate it on our anniversary. We’ve also got [...]

More Painting

Posted by Scott | Filed under House

It was another busy day for housework today. When we bought the green paint for the kitchen last month, we also bought some tan paint for the living room. The paint found its way out of the bucket and onto the walls this morning. Like before, we put together a time lapse of the process. [...]

Green Kitchen

84 Pavers & 4.5 Tons of Rock Later

Posted by Scott | Filed under House

It is done! As of this morning we’re mostly done with the backyard! We moved four and a half tons of rock from a pile on our driveway through the gate to the backyard (after a short interruption from a thunderstorm). As you can image we were very tired once everything was moved and spread. [...]

Yard Work

Posted by Scott | Filed under House, Vacation

It’s time for another catch-up post. We’ve been busy since moving into the new house. We took a quick vacation in DC after Jess’s work trip. Photos from DC are up in the gallery. Since then, we’ve been getting settled into the house. This includes a lot of work in the back yard recently. We [...]

Let the Madness Begin!

Posted by Scott | Filed under House

But this is a good madness. The big moving week is finally here, and it’s going to be crazy. Last week the final pieces to the big house puzzle fell into place. Jess was in Michigan for her grandmother’s funeral, so I got to participate in the final walk-through of the house. Everything looked really [...]
