The country is having many many changes and so are we here at the Martinsen's
All good - first off we are delighted that we are to become great-grandparents again in June.
Granddaughter Alexandra/Jade are having a girl.
Doug and I have been busy here making changes to our basement stairway.
A much needed re-do. The only thing we ever did was put stair carpet many many years ago.
So it will be complete this time.
The walls and backside of upper stairs is going to be bead board painted an off white.
I wanted a color but really needed it to be bright.
I have been painting the boards (3 coats) and Doug puts them up.

We bought a new light and will put new carpet on the stairs in a brown/cream tweed.
Removing the trim and the hand rail, next the carpet
Next the sidewalls and finishing up the upper part
On New Years day we made a fantastic
standing rib roast - and it was delicious!!
I had only made this once before so I was so happy it turned out.
