Ah - where to even start! We've been living in Lethbridge full-time since the beginning of January and have been living in our house since the middle of the same month. We've somehow managed to get ourselves into another reno project but things don't seem nearly as overwhelming this time. (Less to do? More space to live in? Experience? Who knows!) We again were so gun-ho to get started that we failed to take any decent before shots. We're nearly finished "phase 1" - which included new carpets in the upstairs and downstairs, new paint and trim, and new light fixtures. In the summer we're going to tackle "phase 2" which is addressing the mainfloor floors (we have carpet under our kitchen table - ugh!), and either a kitchen redo or upgrade. I'll have to post some pictures as we go along. We absolutely love the neighborhood and had 3 seperate neighbors stop by today with treats for us! It's also nice to have a park to play at too that doesn't have broken beer bottles and shopping carts in it - ha! With that being said we REALLY miss Calgary as well. All the fun things to do, our friends and neighbors there, our ward, and my sister!

Mike is staying busy with work and his PhD, I'm working 2.5 days myself, and Carter is adjusting like a champ to life in Lethbridge (minus the dramatic drop-off to the day home - breaks my heart!). We really are grateful for how smoothly things have all worked out and are excited to be living back home in Southern Alberta.
