Besides all the garden work, which we don't like but have to do, we are still trying to complete (ha, ha) the interior of our house.
Yeah, the joy of owning a house (and living in suburbia).
Our newest (home) buy is a painting.
Last Saturday, when Jakob was off with the scouts Olaf and I escaped our suburban "slavery" and went to NYC for the day. We had a blast, as usual, and came home with this souvenir. It looks great and we love it!
And Olaf finalized one of his many projects: a stand for our statue, made from a fallen tree in our back yard! (After Sandy there are still plenty of them.)
It was not so easy to carry it into the living room (let's just hope the wooden construction of our house will hold this weight...).
Now, we are busy with reorganizing our dining and living rooms... Like I said, never ending...
Ps. Jakob, who meanwhile developed into a really good saxophone player, complained that the subject of the painting is a trumpet player. I would say, we need to go back to NYC and get the saxophone player too. There may be still one wall free in this house...ha,ha
