Overload Update....

Hmmmm, well lets see. Lots going on at our house. Like usual! But mainly we have been working on redoing our kitchen. Which i absolutely am loving at the moment. It turned out so different from what it was before.

Here is what it looked like before. Ugghhhh!

And here is the after, soooooo much better!!! We redid the cabinets, the counter tops, repainted the walls,and added an island\table. It is so much roomier and i love it so much better. All in all, it cost about $300.00 for the makeover, thanks to DIY stuff!!

Love it!

Next I am working on my bathroom. It has been the same since we moved in the house, and well its time for a change! So, hopefully, i will have pics for that soon.

Also going on in our world, Deakon's tubes fell out of his ears about a month ago. Well, a week ago, thursday night, he comes into my room screaming at like 1 in the morning, saying that his ear hurts. FABULOUS! I took him in to see Dr. Shori on friday and poor guy had a double ear infection, allergies, and PINK eye. :(  Poor baby. He hasn't been sick one single time in the last 18 months that he has had his tubes in. I am really hoping that this is an isolated issue and that the ears aren't going to continue to be a problem. We got some meds in him an I am hoping he is going to start feeling better soon. He is still a happy camper and still as hyper as can be.

I love his cheesy smile, this is what i get when i ask him to smile. :)

We had Farren's party this weekend and she wanted to play Minute to Win it Games, with her colors for the party in red and black, and a zombie cake. None of which go together!!! But we made it work and she loved her cake. This guy must of died playing Minute to Win it! lol

In other new stuff, honey got a new tattoo. He and Kyle used to love Five Finger Death Punch, and they loved the cover of one of there albums, so he decided to get that. He is in love with it, and I must admit, I love my tatted up man. :)

Anyways, hope everyone is having a great week, thats a little update on us.



Happy Birthday!

I missed this post a few days back, we have been remodeling our kitchen and a few other projects around the house, and well, I forgot to put this up. Farren turned 15 on the 9th. O......M......G!!!!! Where in the world has the time gone? I still blows my mind that she is 15. She is literally almost the age i was when i had her, ha! Anyway, she has turned in to quite the little lady. I love her and her personality and her humor. She definitely has her dads sense of humor, I only wish he was here to share that with her. I see ALOT of him in her the older she gets. I love that she loves her momma too, and well she looks exactly like me. She is a excellent combination of the two of us. She doesn't mind helping me around the house, or with the kids, or with laundry, or what ever it may be. And she loves to play video games with Chris. Her grades are good, and she is athletic and happy. I love the person she is growing in to. I couldn't ask for a better daughter. So, it preperation for her next birthday when she will be able to drive, we got her this......

Holy moly, her first car! I can't believe we even have to think about this. She loves it, but has a ways to go driving wise. We have been taking her at night a few times a week. And although we have a ways to go, she has improved volumes since that first day! lol! Its an older model, but I think its perfect for a first car. We did go eat hibachi and go to a movie for her birthday but we are having her party this weekend. We had to put it off a couple weeks with the majority of my family being in Hawaii. So, hopefully we will get lots of pics from that.

 Love you baby girl, I hope you had an awesome birthday!

Gone!!!!

Finally, after a long rode, the braces are GONE and she couldn't be happier. :)

And a pic of both of us, so we can hear how much we look alike. :)))

Hope everyone is having a great week!
