Nunchuck Skills

Okay, so not nunchuck skills. We've been busy little bees. My sweet husband has been honing his tiling skills. He tiled our shower in our master bathroom. Now he's working on tiling the floor. 

I've been channeling my inner Sawdust Girl.

I decided we needed another bookcase because our current one is overflowing!

So looked at her website and found a plan for one I liked.

I made mine a little taller and decided against the fancy bottom piece, I like things pretty simple.

(My sweet husband has helped me some too, mostly with the big cuts.) 

And last but not least, I've finally started learning to play the violin!

This is a skill I've wanted to have for a long time.

I borrowed my Grandmother's violin about 5 years ago and I finally found a teacher!

My friend (who also doubles as my visiting teacher) is my teacher.

Another friend and I were discussing how we wanted to learn how to play 

and how that was on each of our resolutions lists for the year.

My friend asked my other friend and she agreed,

so we are taking lessons together before church each Sunday!

It's been really fun so far!

This was from our second lesson.
