I cannot believe my baby is almost one! I literally broke into tears yesterday at 9:00 AM, because my water broke at that time on Memorial Day last year. Ahh, memories! Kenton’s birthday is on Thursday and his party is on Saturday. So, it’s BIRTHDAY week on the blog! Hope you like cute blonde baby boys and [...]

Gallery Wall
Posted in After, Before, DIY, During on May 24, 2012 | 1 Comment »
The gallery wall is complete! Which means the wedding wall is gone… I did let one photo stay! I’ve tried a gallery wall before – in our rental house. It looked really bad. This time, I took my time and really worked on it to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. I followed [...]
New Kid’s Playroom!
Posted in Baby Dreamer, Before, During, Kenton, Kid's Playroom on May 15, 2012 | 1 Comment »
We are changing a lot around here and not just diapers. BABIES! They cause a lot of things to change. Amen? When they grow, they like things. Things take up room and space and make noise and are fantastic for individual play time, but in a designated area. Up until now, that’s been a corner [...]
Dream Rocker
Posted in After, Baby Dreamer, During, Nursery on April 12, 2011 | 5 Comments »
“Dream Rocker” is actually the name of the nursery chair we ended up with. Destiny? Abso-freaking-lutely! More on that in a bit… or right now, if you’re impatient and just scroll to the bottom of this post. For the rest of us though… here’s the story of how we wound up with our Dream Rocker. [...]
Making a Dream and Checking it Twice

I just sent Mr. Dreamer a list. It’s a list of FUN things we get to do to prep the nursery for our beh-beh. I also sent the following note at the top of the list: Here’s the list…. Deep breath… stress is not allowed. It’s just a list! Ceiling Remove fan Fill holes Sand [...]
On Our Way to Sweet Dreamin’…

It has begun! “The Great Master Dream-room Makeover 2010″ The results of our poll were clear. The first project you thought we should tackle during year two in the Dream was our bedroom. So, that’s what we’re currently tackling. We have the sore backs, tired eyes and paint in hair to prove it. To be [...]
DBQ (Dream-B-Q)

For our first official post of the summer, what better topic than the backyard grill/BBQ? Who wouldn’t dream of having a custom-built BBQ on your patio? Nice feature, huh? Kinda pricey though. Unless you “inherit” the sad shell of a former such luxury with your foreclosed home, which you bought with your super-handy hubs, whose [...]
Gone to the Dreams
Posted in Bowdoin the Bulldog, Details, DIY, Dreamscaping, During, Paris the Bulldog on June 4, 2010 | 2 Comments »
So, Mr. & Mrs. Dreamer – the two people who feed us SCRUMPTIOUS kibble twice a day – are outside working on something, so the Bulldogs are taking over this blog. You can read more about how awesome we are here. As you can imagine, this whole “Dreamscaping” nonsense totally rocked our world. We had [...]
The Dreamer Load
Posted in After, Before, Details, DIY, Dreamscaping, During, Then & Now on May 29, 2010 | 2 Comments »
Any idea what weighs 45 tons? Hmm… let’s ask Google that question… So, perhaps that puts into perspective the “Dreamer Load” dumped on our yard… That, my friends, would be 45 tons of landscaping rocks. So, why would we subject ourselves to this rock invasion? Well, we have a few good reasons: 1) We live in [...]

Hiya! Remember us? Yeah, we’re The Dreamers. That fun couple (probably friends of yours, lucky dog) who started this blog about renovating their new home (a foreclosure) all by themselves… who then got so lost in that DIY process they stopped blogging for a whole month! SHAME. ON. US. But, we’re ba-a-a-a-ack! And boy oh [...]
