playstructure
I have been wanting to build something for the kids to play with in the back yard. So I planned for a structure that was big enough that they could play with it for a while and I could add to it if I wanted to. It is 6 feet high and has a cargo net, which I made, a ladder, rock climbing wall and a bar that they can twirl on. I am working on a slide for them. I love that it can be added to and it isn't so small. I hope they love it too.
Fenton and animals
Fenton loves animals and wants to go hiking everyday so he can catch snakes and lizards. While we were in Boise for week he caught 2 snakes and had the best day.
This is Carter just being super silly. Love this kid.
Hot tub
For Mother's day Father's day and my birthday David got us a hot tub. We are pretty stoked about it. It was a beast to put in. We rented a HUGE forklift to lift it up and move it to the back yard. David was a great driver (because he has his class A from my dad). We leveled out the spot, Jason (david's brother) hooked up the power and we filled it up and the next morning we got in and all had a blast. I grew up with a hot tub and I loved just getting warm before school, after practice, after water skiing or snow skiing. Hopefully my kids will have great memories with this one too. Thanks David for a great present!!!
mom's pink bathroom
My mom started to get real serious about selling her house so I offered my non professional hands to help do the bathroom that has been undone for 2 1/2 years. This is a before and after shot. I wish it was a better pic... but you get the idea.
I took off all the wall paper, put in new light fixtures, painted the walls, put a frame around the huge mirror, stripped, sanded and painted the cupboards and put new handles on it. Added a new shower rod and curtain and it doesn't look so bad. Yes I know that it is still pink tile... but as I said this was as far as my pay grade would allow me to do!
Fenton graduates from Kindergarten
Fenton graduated from Kindergarten and he was so stinking cute. He got the 2nd most miles in the 100 mile club so he got a metal and a gift card to a local sports store. I was pretty pound of him. He is such a great student and good helper in class. The teacher loved him.
Isn't he handsome!
April
Eliza had her first clogging performance. She was in a few dances but she did so great. She smiled and smiled. She loves clogging and practices all of the time.
Eliza had a spring performance. It was disney on Parade (I did the "Disney on parade" in the back) and she sang a solo of Frozen. She did so great. I was so proud of her.
Easter weekend was the beginning of soccer so we snuck a little easter egg hunt in before the games. They had a lot of fun.
Easter outfits. I love these kids!!!!!
