Mr. Fix-It

I have discovered in recent weeks that I was lucky enough to marry Mr. Fix-It. Not only is he wonderful in nearly every other way, he also either knows how or is happy to learn how to fix nearly anything!

So, since moving to the house, Mr. Fix-It (with the help of friends and family) has been busy...

...getting rid of the jungle of weeds that used to surround the house,


...replacing a chandelier, and re-wiring messed up switches and outlets,

...putting up shelves...

...and most recently, taking out and replacing crumbling concrete steps.



Thanks Mr. Fix-It!

  • Welcome to the wonderful world of home ownership (rentership?)! Having a Mr. Fix-it in the family is better than having a doctor in the family. Wise choice, Jess!
    Love,
    Mom

  • Wow...concrete steps?? That is certainly advanced Mr. Fix-it skills. Congrats on the new digs!

  • Maybe the old chandelier could be reworked into some beautifully oversized jewelry for you Jess...

    The house is looking great, Mr. Fix-It!

  • If we ever own a house, maybe Mr. Fix-it and his lovely wife could come over...?? How fun to make this house your own by adding your own touch! The house looks great -we can't WAIT to see it in person!! Abbie says she has some "fixing" to do around your place - such as pull everything off all the lower shelves and "rearrange" all tupperware cupboards if that's okay with you...
