Well, somehow another year has passed and it’s time to look back on what we accomplished. This year had some pretty great highs and a few lows towards the end, but I feel good about what we have managed to get done.
- Early in the year we made some improvements on the driveway and front of the house.
- Suzie injured her back and spent months recovering.
- We made the back garden look really nice for a time.
- We also built up all the remaining space in the enclosure with planters. And then we filled them all!
- We welcomed two new bunnies to the house, Toast and Licorice, and successfully bonded them.
- We made some improvements to the TV room downstairs.
- We painted a lot of our walls dark. (Here, and here, and here)
- I learned how to make a bunch of new things (Sourdough bread, tofu, soy milk, ginger soda, water kefir, soy yogurt, and more)
- We got engaged and married!
- We upgraded our entry closet.
- We started a new bunny castle.
- We completely re-did the guest room/home office, including new flooring, and a new bed and desk.
- We had beautiful engagement and wedding photos taken!
- After a series of losses, we decided to re-home our chickens and convert the coop to a tool shed.
- I wrote and self-published a zine on vegan food!
- We helped rescue and re-house a little dog from Vancouver.
- We welcomed another rescue cat into our house.
- We completed our cook book shelf, finally.
- We got some new furniture.
- I learned a lot more about mushrooms.
- And about how to propagate succulents and other plants.
- I participated in the Flower Project.
- We went to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
- I wrote and self-published a second volume of my vegan food zine.
- We put a roof on our wood pile, finally.
- We did a small renovation on our kitchen.
- I wrote a post on how to save a life.
- We started a portion of the bathroom renovation.
- I started a tarot deck of my very own, created a lunar calendar for 2017, designed new business cards, and am preparing to launch a line of natural cosmetic products
wow! I’d say you both have had a very productive year!! well done 👏👏

Sounds like a great year! Are those hops on the side of your house? My husband and I are hoping to put some up either against our shed or on one side of our house 🙂
Also, your wedding and engagement photos are gorgeous! Congratulations!
