Basement: Day 1

Today I started unpacking the boxes in the basement. It is a huge mess in there as you can see. And this is only half the room. Here's the before picture. Yikes.

The kids ran around while I worked in there. They got out the dress up box and especially loved dressing up as superman and supergirl in these cute capes made by Aunt Angie. Thanks Angie!!

I tried to get pictures of them, but they were running around too fast. It's hard to keep up with superheroes.

And five hours later the guest room looked like this. The other half of the room didn't look that much better. It was pretty discouraging. Is this room ever going to get unpacked? I was exhausted afterward. I think I might have to take a day off from the basement before I try to tackle it again. :( Are you tired of seeing pictures of boxes, 'cause I'm tired of seeing them.

You're doing such a great job! The boxes aern't going to run away. Please be careful and not over do it. Take a breather and take care of yourself and that sweet little baby boy you're carrying. :o)

That looks like a lot of progress to me! It took us weeks and weeks to get our spare room looking that good. We were satisfied with it. Then Dana's sister came over and told us it would look really great when it was clean. hahaha.
