House Projects

Within the first 2 years of living here we had the basement finished, a deck built, and a stamped concrete patio put in.  We are running out of big projects but there is no shortage of smaller projects to do around the house.  Thanks to Mike's dad and his buddy Merlin we recently added on to our kitchen cabinets.  We extended the one side and love having more cabinet space.  We also are adding on to the island but we have yet to pick out the new granite so project is still in process.  I am looking forward to seeing the finished product and figuring out what project we should tackle next.

These are a few wood-working/carpentry projects that Dad Lipke and Merlin created for us.  Oh yeah, Mike helped Dad with the built-in.
Entry way shelf and hooks
Kid's bookshelf (made with the spindles of Evan's old crib)
Frame (re-framed after the old one came crashing down off the way one night)
Built-in shelves in the basement (still need to add a family photo to the frame)
