The Bathroom Remodel

Here are some photos of Mom and Dad's bathroom remodel since Jenn wanted to see some. Jenn, I think you guys just need to come back to IA to see it in person! :)

This is the hall bathroom.

Please take note of the bunn feet on the cabinets---Mom's favorite detail!!


This last photo is of Mom and Dad's bathroom, the base cabinets and sink were not able to be installed due to the wrong size of cabinet being delivered. So here is the new mirror, light fixture and wall cabinets.

Boxes, the New Rage

We spent the weekend in Mt. Ayr so that Mike could finish up the bathroom remodel for mom and dad. Unfortunately the wrong size cabinet was ordered for mom and dad's bathroom, so he'll have to go finish that once the correct cabinet is delivered. The hall bath is finished and looks GREAT! There were tons of boxes at Nana and Papa's house due to all the new cabinets/sinks/mirrors and of course Stella and Porter loved playing in them all weekend.



Mom took Stella to the driving range today...she may need a little help on her form, but I think she'll turn pro before she turns 5! :)

Twilight

Thanks, Jenn, for hooking me on the Twilight Series----LOVE IT!!!!!!! I just bought book #3, Eclipse, a few days ago and I think I'm going to finally start it tonight. Yay!! Anyhoo--- tonight I saw the Twilight trailer for the first time on TV. Squeal!! It looks SOOOOO good. Edward looks especially yummy! :) I wish we all lived closer then we could have a Twilight movie party and go together! So if any female is looking for a great book to read, go out and get Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, you'll love it!

Sparkly Pumpkins & Mr. Curly Q

We went to a play date at a friends house this morning and the kids decorated little pumpkins with spray glue and glitter. Of course the sparklier the better!


I LOVE LOVE LOVE these pj's of Porter's! I just took the tags off of them last night and I can't get enough of them! They are right up there with his Monster Truck pj's (I'll have to post a photo of them sometime!) They are green with brown little zebra's all over them--CUTE, yet so manly!! LOL!


And boy does my little guy have a head full of curls. I tried to capture them tonight so I could always remember how curly his hair was. Love it!!!!!!

What A Difference A Year Makes

I was taking photos of the kids tonight up in Porter's room and it reminded me of photos I took of them last year at this time. How much they change in a year! Also it was funny that they are wearing the same colors of PJ's!!

Happy Birthday Mike!

Mike celebrated his 31st Birthday yesterday. Now he's old like me! :) He had a super fun day full of painting the outside of our house! I'll post photos once it is all done. Today mom helped us with the project and we got a TON done. We had a little party for Mike last night at our house.
Here he is with the Hulk Hogan birthday cake I made him.


Playing Ring Around The Rosie with Nana.

Stella and Grandpa dressed in purple!

Friday afternoon Stella fell asleep on Grandma's lap. :) (And Porter was here all weekend, I guess he was just running from the camera the whole time!)

It's October!

Yay! It's October which means I can dress my kiddos in their Halloween shirts! I'm such a dork! Stella was being a major ham for the camera today.




Stella's fake smile! :)

Porter loves to run away from me as soon as he get dried off after his bath. Today he ran into his closet and got out his rain boots to put on. I yelled down to Mike to come up with the camera quick---you gotta get the embarrassing shots when you can!!!
