My Christmas Present!

First let me say that my husband is AMAZING!  I had no idea he could do this . . .




The man built me a sofa table!  How amazing is that?!  We actually found plans for a four cubby on pinterest with the link here:  http://www.takethesidestreet.com/2011/05/table-is-complete-next-comes-styling.html
I loved it instantly!  I knew we needed something like that to clean up the toy mess that was in the living room.  So, of course, my man went to work (without my knowledge).  He even dragged my dad and brother into it by borrowing their tools and even my dad's house to build it so I wouldn't know!  Dave built it in about 5 hours, after it took him 2 hours to modify the 4 cubby plan into 5 cubbies and get the materials.  He presented it to me unfinished on Christmas so that I could pick out the color I wanted.  He also had me look for the baskets I wanted as well as decor I wanted to place on top.  The decor is not done yet, there will be some plants and I am always on the lookout for a small ceramic/metal bird which I think would go wonderfully with the ensemble.

I just LOVE it! 

I love he even did the detailing on the side!  It is perfect!!


Isn't my Dave AMAZING?!  I sure love that man!

Now that I know I have such a carpenter on hand, we've come up with several more projects for him to do!  Hopefully we will finish one this coming weekend and I can post it on here when completed!

(I just had to add pics of my sweet babies!  They are SO adorable!!  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them!)


I am so blessed to have such happy children!
