Some boundaries

We obviously live in Minnesota, but I won’t be sharing pictures of the front of our home or the location of our cabin in Wisconsin. I also won’t be doing house tours (why give the crazies a map into each and every room of our home?), but I’ll bring you along for all the fun we have with new projects.

I am in no way a professional when it comes to DIY. I’m learning as I go, and I know when a task is outside my realm of current possibilities. So you’ll see when we hire out for specific projects and when I attempt to do things on my own.

I’m going to make mistakes along the way, and I’m cool with that. I hope you are, too!
