It is your birthday, shout HORRAY!

I seriously CAN NOT believe this last year has gone by sooo fast! FOR REALS! Anyways- we love you kella, and couldn't live life without you sweet girl. We love you so much, and can't wait to see how you grow and learn this next year. Happy Birthday Baby girl.

Before....After

I'm so glad my husband has an eye for pretty things. He lays tile, and things are really slow right now, so he decided to RIP out my bathroom, and make us a new shower/floor....it turned out soo great! I LOVE it. Now I just wish we could find some cute...(cheap) things to decorate it...some new rugs, towels, ya know, I want it all....a glass door would be nice too...(someday). Anyways- I just wanted to show off his BEAUTIFUL work. Thanks babe, it couldn't be better!

I want to make my front door look like this.....

1.1.11

Im so excited for a new year. A fresh start is just what I need. I feel like 2010 was sooo extremly busy, and Im ready for things to slow down alittle. HaPpY nEw YeAr everyone!!!

and her.

Love her.

These two...

These two are my little muffins....who keep me on my toes. Kella is now 10 months old, and she's all over the place. She's not walking yet, but she is such a busy body! We love her so much, and is such a bright, happy child to have in our home. Lilee, is a fiesty, sassy, such a sweet girl. She has a great heart, and is super smart. This girl knows what she wants and isn't afraid to get it. Sometimes this results in major tantrums, lots of crying, and complete craziness. But this is what makes Lilee- Lilee. She is one sassy chick, and I don't know what I would do without her in our lives. She is such a great girl! I love them soo much!

Just ordered my christmas cards from Shutterfly! Im so excited! They will be sooo cute! anyways- thought I'd let you all know that it really did work, and it saved me like 62.00. I had to pay like 8 dollars for shipping is all! WOOOWHOOO

Shutterfly christmas cards...

So every year I make my own christmas cards, but this year I am so excited because I was looking on Shutterfly's website, and they have the CUTEST Christmas cards, and they are giving bloggers an opportunity to get 50 FREE cards this year. I have used Shutterfly before in the past, I made a book from my Alaska trip, and it's so awesome. The quailty is great, and I can't wait to use them this year for my christmas cards. I would probably end up using them anyway, even if they weren't giving this promotion, because my life is sooo busy this year, and they are SUPER DUPER cute! They have quite a few cards that I love...now I just need to pick which one to use! Here is one of favorites...

Treasures I found at the DI

I have this new addiction. Making old things new and funky. I don't know why, but I can not stop. lol. I think it relieves some sort of stress maybe? My husband tells me I need to stop bringing home other people's junk, but I seriously can't wait to see what I can find next...! lol. so, with some imagination, and spray paint, you can turn trash into treasure! =) Here are some of my projects...beware, the colors are alittle funky.

This frame will be perfect if I can ever find a picture big enough to put in it! I guess we better get a family picture taken one of these days....


This table cost me 5 dollars, and going to be a storage space for all the kids toys in my living room!

This tabel is going in my basement for toy storage also....this is alittle bright, but I do love the detail. This is sort of alittle funky, but Im going to do my basement colors Turquoise and orange...so we will see how it turns out!

a couple months ago.

These pictures were taken a couple months ago, but preston's aunt just tagged me in them , and I wanted to share them. My girls are sooo cute! I can't get enough of them!

Kella Bug

Kella will be eight months on the 27th...I think that's tomorrow...I can't believe she will be one in four short months. CRAZY. Anyways- just wanted to post some pics of her, she's getting soo big, she wanting to crawl sooo bad, but not quite there. Im sure this week sometime. Anyways- here she is!
