...changed the thermostat to a programmable one

...had a fence put in the backyard

I myself only had part in a few of these, but my wonderful husband had a part in every single one.  We also had some help from Chris' parents - thanks guys!  It's been a productive month for us since we've had the house and we're really enjoying it with these projects done.  Maggie's loving her backyard (but she never wants to come back in after we let her out - because she's sniffing so much)!  I think we'll be done with house projects at least for a little while now.

Nothing like making a house your own!

(We actually haven't done anything for several weeks now, but I just didn't get around to getting this posted until now! And we're going on having the house for 2 months now.)
