Some finished projects.

 Ok, well, I'm never done with these projects (Randy and the girls).  Seriously though, remember our green kitchen?  I did like the color, but was ready for a change.
 And our blue bathroom?  It got a Rapunzel makeover before I finished it off with a new coat of paint.  The girls LOVED painting the walls just like Rapunzel does in the movie Tangled.  Kenadi even painted herself with long hair and lanterns in the air.


Well, the blue became grey, which I LOVE.  It goes so well with anything, and brings a little sophistication to our tiny bathroom.




The kitchen became blue and dark blue.  I don't think that this picture gives you true color though.  Oh, but it's close enough.  I do like the blue, but wish that the dining room was a shade lighter.  I go back and forth liking the shade, and then wishing for lighter.  I have decided that I like color a lot though. I like seeing that it's blue, and having the brightness that it is.

My moss covered H.  I had to BUY this moss.  Crazy that a girl from Oregon would go out and buy moss.

I got this adorable crochet book for Christmas and I've been loving it.  These little guys are gifts I've made for other people's kids.  Olie the octopus,

 Ellie the elephant- she's dancing by the way,

and Pete the penguin.  Aren't they cute?  Now it's time to make some for my kids.  They've put in their orders and have been waiting patiently.
Now, let me give you all a heads up that these projects have been over the corse of about 5 months.  So, I definitely don't have a high turnover rate.  Just so you know that I'm not THAT on top of things.

Family and Friends

I had a few more "picturesque" ones that I needed to post.  The one above is Kenadi, Emma, and Sadie with a box of Lucky Charms.  They got ahold of it when Kayla and I were cooking, and the other adults were preoccupied, I guess.  If you look closely there are no more marshmallows left.  They ate all of them.  Out of the whole box, which was dumped out in Nick and Haley's bedroom.  I do have to give them a little credit for using spoons instead of their fingers to eat them off of the floor.
Randy and Mya by the Idaho Falls temple.

We were on the green belt there, and Kayla missed her turkey's at home, so she tried to catch a goose.  She actually did catch one, and got bit.
Cute little cousins.

At the end of our trip we went to see some good friends, Shannon and Jory.  I love this family, they are so happy, smiley, and funny.  They make us laugh.

Here we were talking about how the best pictures aren't the posed ones.  SO, they were "not posing" and acting like I caught them in "the moment".  Looks realistic guys.  Oh, and would you look at their adorable little baby that only weighed 5 lbs something?  I need to have a 5 lb baby. ( Not NOW, but in the future.) What would that feel like? 
Some Mya news lately.  She's pretty much crawling, just in short little bits.  She is so happy to be on the floor so she can figure it out.  I love this little squishy baby.  She is so sweet.
