This week we actually had people over just to have them over. We didn’t put them to work or anything! (Well, there may have been a few questions and conversations, but they didn’t actually have to pick up a hammer or a rag).

Before

It was Matt’s birthday, so that gave us an excuse to invite people in. Granted, it was just cake, but it was still really nice to welcome people into our home and celebrate with them.

After

It also gave me the motivation I needed to set down the hammer and pick up a mop! Wow, those floors were mucky. Not sure we’ve come up with a solution yet to keep all of the dirt that’s part of farm living out of the farmhouse and in the farm yard where it belongs…
