Mark & Marie Bethany

It's been awhile since
we've heard from the newest
neighbors on Birch Tree Lane.
Mark & Marie's house was
finished being built back
in October.
Between the holidays &
just the usual busy days in
their lives they have only
just made a small dent in
making their house a
HOME.
They've added a couple of little
touches outside to make it
a little more welcoming.
Marie's been baking bread &
insists on having fresh
flowers around always.
The living room is becoming
quite cozy. Mark and Marie enjoy making plans together and relaxing with their dog Lava. A few old family pictures have been hung.
The kitchen still needs everything but is workable for now.
Marie has started painting but this color is not purple ! It's actually a peachy rosy kind of color she chose for her bedroom.
The bedroom's shaping up and has been very comfy. Marie just loves the old brass bed they found at an antique fair.
Marie loves her new bathroom which is large enough for her vanity! Mark & Marie will definitely share more pictures as they make progress.

Love the doll house. I have not worked on my miniatures in a long time. Have been spending more time on jewelry.
Enjoy your weekend.

Oh Sue - what a wonderful surprise! - I just discovered your blog (and you never even told me you had one). I've spent the entire morning looking back at all your old posts - your dollhouses & pretty dollies, your beautiful home and gardens, your sweet grandson, and of course, my own favorite treasure - your happy little shop! It's been such fun!

WOW WEE!!! That is so neat. I have my Mom doll house from when she was 12. She worked so hard (babysat 6 kids for 25 cents an hour) and saved her money to get it.
She is 72 now and took such good care of it that everything is all in it's original box and packages. I think its time to set it up and let Maddi play with it.
Thanks for sharing, Amy (Mom to the Four Sisters)
