Utah/Boise here we come...

Spring Break is coming so we are heading down south, well to Utah I should say. We are going to spend Easter weekend with my sister, Tina, and her family at Zions National Park. We rented a cabin and we are so excited to go 4-wheeling, hiking, and to just relax. After we are in Zions we will spend a few days in Salt Lake/Provo with my other sister, Grandma, Trav's brother and sister, cousins and friends. We get to spend Easter with family and Jake gets to celebrate his 5th birthday while we are there as well. We are then heading up to beautiful Boise, Idaho to spend a couple of days with the Meikles. We are so excited to see everyone! I will post all of our fun pictures from our Spring Break adventures when we get back. It is going to be jam packed trip but we are all looking forward to it. Now I need to pack our family of 5, get the dog to the boarder and somehow fit in cleaning the house. I am sure everyone knows what it is like getting your family ready for a trip, it is hard work. I hope everyone one has a very HAPPY EASTER! If anyone is in Utah, give us a call we would love to see you!

Big Girl Bed



We just bought new bedroom furniture for Baylee and Sydney's room. We bought a nice white beaded board daybed with a trundle under the bed. We got rid of the crib, it was not in the best condition for another baby, thanks to our wonderful movers. Sydney gets to sleeep on the trundle and loves it. We had to take pictures of her in the bed her first night. She sometimes does not want to sleep in her own bed so she will sneak up and try to sleep with Baylee. Our baby is not a baby anymore.:(

My latest project

I decided to refinish our wonderful pine table we have had since we were married. We loved this table, it is so sturdy and can seat a lot of people. I thought it needed to be updated a little bit so I decided to paint it black. It took many coats of black paint but I really love it. It has made our dining room look completely different. Some of you wanted to see the finished product, so here you go.
