Project House Update: The List 6.0

I'm very very late posting my annual list this year. It was an incredibly busy house year and incredibly busy year just being functioning adults.  Some huge things have gotten done. Some huge things are still in progress. Either way, here's where things stand. 

Also, my husband had been playing with my camera and I didn't realize he had messed with the settings. Some of the pictures are really bad. Sorry about that, but let's be real, I'm too lazy to retake them.

If you'd like to go back and see what we've accomplished in previous years, click one of the older versions of this list below, otherwise, let's see what's changed!
