Misc. Fun!

These are just some misc. pics of the kids having fun!!! For Lucie's birthday my parents gave her the little house that I had as a kid. I wish I would have gotten my dad in the pic. to because he had to redo all the pvc pipes on the inside. Grandma made Lucie's baby lulu a matching dress from her dress last year that still fits. It is really cute. Then the kids had a circus train in the driveway. It was adorable! A friend from church came over to help me with our compost pile and in it were raspberries so we rotatilled the area and made a new raspberry patch that Grant is watering!

A Play on my day off.




I was at home cleaning on my day off and the kids were being good, I could here them so I knew WHERE they were-but I didn't really know WHAT they were doing. It was really cute they came to me and said the play was ready to start, so I followed them. They had set up a play inside the house and the audience was outside the house(which is where I was), then they had me sit in my chair, pulled the curtain open and put on a play. It is a nice break from life to sit and relax and see how imaginative kids can be!!!

Extremly LONG post!

This post just didn't come out right but I have so many pics I don't want to fix it so you kid of have to piece the pics together!!



We were huge overachievers with moving, we filled two huge uhauls. The first few things we did upon moving were doing a little gardening and Lucie has loved dancing on the deck out back!










They left us an old record player that works and my mom saved some records from when I was a kid and the kids have loved dancing to them.



The one place in the house I want little to do with is the crawl space and the kids LOVE to play camping in it!!


The kids didn't have Easter outfits this year so I had them wear the same ones as last year, they were super cute!!



Well, we are finally almost getting settled into our house. It is great, we love it!! At this point in time things are still rather orange(but we are slowly fixing that.) The first two rooms we put together are Grant and Lucie's. We tore up Grant's seventies carpet and this is the hardwood that was under it! We also put up Diego stickers-which is a quick fix until we have time to do more!








In Lucie's room we are keeping the carpet and we just bought daisy stickers for her room to girl it up. I also made her a "dancing" corner with her dressup stuff and my old mirror from when I was a kid-she loves it!






Our little half bath(in the salon/mud room/playroom) was a horrible blue but to quickly fix that I decided to make it a Nemo bathroom and we put up Nemo wall stickers and I actually think it is adorable! The only problem is the wall stickers don't stick great and I followed directions, I hope most can stay up awhile.






Our biggest project is our main bath, we are retiling and painting it, it is coming along great and I love it but pics will be coming later! We are so happy with our house and we are glad we bought this house!!!
