Will it ever end?


As you may be aware (or not aware) our house has not changed since I would say about... 1950! Well I'm not a fan of that so we have been working to change that ever since we moved it. Yeah it takes about a year for us to get anything done, but oh well. Our latest accomplishment is this bedroom that we are planning to make our master bedroom. We painted oh so many coats of paint and touch up paint, then sanding parts  cuz it wasn't right and painting again. It previously had light blue carpet and wallpaper with pink bows on it, I think. Do you like the trim and molding? I can say I painted all of that! Now that that room is done (just needs doors) our next project is the bathroom redo.
BEFORE  -Good bye pink tile-

AFTER. We decided to keep the corner tub and toilet but everything else is gone including cabinets, sinks, counter top, lights and carpet. Yes, we had carpet in the bathroom. We are planning to tile the floor and up the wall behind the tub.

St. George

This wasn't in St. George, I just thought I'd throw it in here. She hugs her baby and her duck and is all ready for bed.

Swimming!

Fun with crazy uncle Adam

Emilee with her great grandparents. How special to be able to have these experiences.

Blaine celebrated his 90th birthday a few weeks after we were in St. George. It was a great party and fun to hear everyone's great stories about him and his life.



We try to go down to St. George a few times a year to see my grandparents. We went at the beginning of June and Adam came with us. We picked him up in Provo and headed out. It is a VERY long drive from Vernal but we made it. The boys spent every day golfing while I stayed with granny or at the pool. We ate good food and played a few good card games, that is my favorite part!
