Bathroom

I redecorated our Hall bathroom with weekend. I am very happy with the way it all turned out, its still fun for the kids but elegant for guests. I'll post pictures soon. Ignore the counter tops, they will hopefully be changed this spring. Yea for tax returns, it all goes back into the house.

Graduation!!!

Shaun Graduated from BYU-I on Friday night!!!
After many years, test, papers, and late nights he has his
Bachelors Degree!!

His Major was in CIT.....
and a Minor in History!
He'll take a year off and start on his Masters in 2011, the year before the end of the world:)

I am so proud of him, and his kids will always know how important an education is!!

Private

By the way I went private again, and will stay this way from now on. So check it every once in awhile because private blogs don't show new post lines.

Snowflakes

Today we had a preschool/meeting for the kids and moms. We planned out the next quarter while the kids played and frosted cookies. Than we cut and decorated snowflakes to take to a Retirement Home in our ward. I had forgotten how to make a good snowflake, they're fun once you remember how to fold the paper and where to cut the shapes....i think I'll have to do some with my kids for the front windows. Now if only it would snow here it would be warmer!!! So DARN COLD!!!

I was on my friend Amanda's blog tonight and she had some cute things on it, and these were two of the things she wants to make for her girls, and I may do them soon.


There is nothing to do!????

Taylor is home for the next 5 days, at 8:30 this morning she told me "There is nothing to do" my response is you can clean your room, do homework, dust the tables and shelves in the living room, I really could go on. She didn't want to do house work, who does.

So now I have all my dining chairs and barstools in the front room with a sheet over it, yes I had to build a fort. First day home and all ready board!!! Any fun ideas to do with my kids, that wont take up the entire house? They won't go outside because its to cold and there is snow.

I want to be a kid today!!! No list of chores to get done, and lay on the floor in a fort watching movies, Ahhh the life.

House updates

Shaun has started update some of the "70's" fixtures in our house..
We plan on getting this ugly fan out of the dining room next.
Not sure if we'll put a pretty one in or do a pendant.

Old light switch in the house.
The entry and all the bedrooms got these put in.
New switches, so nice, I love them.
