Happy Birthday to our sweet Rlyee. We love you and are so proud of all you are and all you do. Keep smiling that beautiful smile. Love Grandma & Grandpa!!

The final touch to the living room.

I had a blast having these pictures taken with the kids.
Don't you love Gracie dancing with Jesus? (a turning statue)
I also love the one on one shots with them.
We were looking for a 4 leaf clover.

Time with the kids

Time in Arizona

 
 
 
 

Here are some shots i took of Samantha & Aaron
at home and in Red Lodge. Aren't they cute?

Notice the trimming on the corner and the entrance from the living room and dining room. New Family wall. And all my senior graduates. So proud of each of them.

Bay window stained to match floor trimming. See the oak trimming around the T.V.. The dark color for the main wall. New updated & framed pictures of cole,rylee, and gracie.

We are so excited to finally have this project completed. It feel like being in a new home. (That is till you go to our room. NEXT PROJECT" Again thank you Mark for getting this started.

Katrina went to a book signing of the House of Night Series "Hunted" for me there in Tempe, Arizona and got the newest addition signed for me. I am so grateful she did this for me. I was just one week to early to see them myself. If your looking for some fun read. You'll love these series. You can get them at your local Target. Thanks Trina. It is really appreiated.

Belle really loves her new couch.

 

 

 

 

Happy Birthday to me!

Yes,my birthday. Now most would be upset about having to paint on their birthday but me? I was THRILLED. We have been wanting to finish the upstairs but what was holding us back was two walls. A wall papered entry wall and a wood panneled wall. Mark had stripped the wall paper all himself and resheetrocked the other(with a little help from Dustin, thank you!!). I was estactic. Here below are the beggining and above the progress.

Happy Birthday to me!!
