A Little Recap of 2013!

I haven't spent much time on my computer this past week but that's because I've been busy working away on another room in our house. First, I got all of our Christmas decorations put away (except for the paperwhites and a couple of wreaths) and then I got to work priming and painting the trim in our other extra bedroom and started on the walls. I am hoping to finish up the walls today and then I can start decorating. I am really excited about the bedding from Ballard Design that is going in that room! And I am on the hunt for a couple of things to add in there but hopefully will have lots of pictures to share soon. And then I am starting on our master bedroom. And our new light fixture for our entryway arrived late yesterday afternoon so I am hoping to get it out of the box and maybe even hung this afternoon. So, it may be a few more days but I should have lots to share with you soon! In the meantime I thought it would do a little obligatory year end wrap up for 2013. I chose a few of my favorite posts/projects from this past year: <br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b>First up, last January we had Jamie's Baby Shower -You can find <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2013/01/http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2013/01/jamies-nursery-rhyme-themed-baby-shower.html">Part 1</a> here and </b><a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2013/01/jamies-nursery-rhyme-themed-baby-shower_15.html"><b>Part 2 here:</b></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
