House Work... Yuck

I have been covered in paint for the past week. We bought so much paint Home Depot gave us the pro desk discount! Lucy's view has been from her pack and play, poor thing. She sees it coming and screams. All of her toys are at the new house so she gets to play with fun things like my perfume at the old house.




The past two days I have been painting the kitchen cabinets white. I found all kinds of fun things in the cabinets and drawers, my sister-in-law, Tiffany told me to rip them out and get new ones because they were SERIOUSLY disgusting and grossing both of us out, I will spare you the details of what we found (no one would ever eat at my the house again!) but it's not in the budget so painting I have done. I'm hoping to be done with all the major renovations before we move in.

Kung Fu Fighting

On Saturday we went to Reece and Chase's karate tournament before we left for home. The boys did AWESOME and impressed me with the fierce moves! We loved spending time with them and are going to miss them terribly when they leave for Japan in August,but we can't wait to go see them there!

Sweet Girl

I just love her sweet face!!!

Happy Birthday Evie!

We had such a wonderful time in DC celebrating Evie's first birthday! The party was Peter Rabbit, such a cute spring theme. Lucy had a great time playing with her cousins while the grownups got ready for the party.


The birthday girls outfit was adorable, I wish Andy would of gotten a picture of her bloomers they looked like a tutu.


My sister in-law Missy did a great job with planning the party, she even made Evie's cake. The building they held the party in was beautiful and right there on base. They had a bunny petting zoo, and a wonderful bbq dinner.

Leaving on a jet plane

Last weekend we went to Washington DC to our niece's, Evie, first birthday party. We flew on buddy passes (THANK YOU SOOO MUCH KAREN!) so we took the 6am flight. It was a very, very early morning. We woke up at three and arrived at the airport at 4am(yuck). Miss Lucy was wide awake and ready to go, she had cheese eggs for breakfast, her new favorite food and enjoyed people watching in the airport. She was very inquisitive when we first sat down, but as soon as the plane started to move she was sound asleep and slept the whole way there; much to the delight of the passengers around us!





On the way back home she was wide awake the ENTIRE flight! I think this is the first time she has really been aware of the airplane window. She LOVED it, and was very well behaved. She talked to the passengers behind us, and continually reminded the passengers in front to keep their chair in the upright position!

New Camera

Finally, we got a new camera! However the guy at the store sold us the wrong memory card :( So for the past 5 days I have been franticly trying to download about 300 pictures without any luck! So tomorrow it is off to wolf camera to see if they can make it into a picture CD and get a new card. I promise to post allot this week (once I get the photos off) so check back we had a busy few weeks.

A New Love

Life has been busy around here! I have not even made it out to buy a new camera (bad mommy), Anyone has suggestions on a good one? Lucy is fighting another nasty cold, I am trying to clean the new house, and start the process of painting it. We have had 3 offers on the house but I have a bottom line and am not willing to go below it. So needless to say life is stressful. Lucy takes it all in stride even if the poor thing has a constint drip from her nose. She is in LOVE with the Mickey Mouse Club House.I don't let her watch much TV, but it is the only way mommy can take a shower! As soon as she hears Hey, it's Mickey Mouse she could possibly get whip lash from turning to it so quick.
