office update (part 1)

This weekend my parents came up to our neck of the woods and we had a guh-reat time as usual. I absolutely love it when they come up. And so does miss Piper. She adores her grandparents.

Piper & Grandpa Aka "Farty" (You will only understand if you've seen Parental Guidance)

We spent the weekend finishing up my little 8 x 8 office in the basement. My little space where grading papers will be bearable. It's crazy how it started out as a concrete playroom. I am so over the moon on how it is coming along. Thank you so much to my dad and husband for their handy work and hours they poured into my room. And thank you mom for keeping me company and being the very best.

Cracks me up. Action shot after being licked by the Miss. 

Here are some of the before pictures taken by Mr. Husband. It's hard to get a good picture when there is only a couple feet to stand back. What can ya do?

And here are some pictures after the sheetrock was installed, all the plug-ins and cable done, new wood floors, freshly primed and painted, new trim, and my glorious new light. I flipping love that light. Nice work mamacita.

Color: Behr Gentle Rain. Looks a little different and way better in person. Darn picture.

Now all I need to do is gather some decorations for inside, get a desk, and call it a day. I found a desk I wanted soooo bad at world market but of course they are discontinuing the desk and the only people who have it are in South Carolina. Road trip?

The desk I reaaaaally want.

So anyway, I am on the lookout for a white desk that is big enough to fit the mac and room for all of my stacks of papers I will most likely be grading in there. I found one at overstock and am thinking about getting it but still on the search for desk victory. Holler at me for your awesome desk finds :)

I cannot wait to see it come together and get my motivation and inspiration on in there. It may be a little 8 x 8 room, but I love love love everything about it and can't wait to put it to use.

I hope you all had a great weekend. They just seem to go way too fast. Way too fast I tell ya.
