Playing In The Dirt

Spring/Summer Blocks

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My new project that I did with the Neighbors. So much fun. And they turned out super cute. Got the idea from http://craftskeepmesane.blogspot.com/2010/03/tutorial-tuesday-spring-decoration.html. Sorry don't know how else to link the website. ENJOY!

Jason Aldean Concert!!!

Ahhh it was so much fun!!! There were so many people and the energy was so crazy, awesome!!! Luke Bryan opened for him and he did a good job pumpin up the crowd. The best song by far was Hicktown (the last song of the night), the crowd was so crazy and the bleachers were moving, which was alittle crazy, but so worth it!!! We didn't get home til midnight but got to sleep in a bit. The kids did so good with our neighbors. Thanks guys! What an awesome night!!!

A Spiritual Moment

2 Cornthianas 4: 16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Found this quote one of my other blog sites and it really hit me, in a good way. Yesterday I was having a hard day with Madison, but after praying for strength and patience I had a really good day with her today. Anyways just thought I'd share something that really helped me through a rough day. Hope you can get something from it too!

New Backsplash!!

Here we go!!!

All Done YAY!!!

Ok so it took us much longer than we thought to get in done but we finished it!! We love it and think it completes the kitchen. Hope you enjoy the pics!! Other than doing the backsplash we've all been fighting nasty colds. YUCK!

Icky, Icky, Icky!!

So we've been sick over here for the past week now. First I had the flu, then Madison got a bad cold, then Garrett got the flu, and now Austin is coughing this morning. Yuck!! My neighbor and her kid, plus one she's babysitting and I with my two kids went to Storytime last Tuesday where we all picked up this nasty bug. The little girl she babysits got the flu that night (same as me) and is still sick, and her son got the bad cold. This morning she informed me that he started throwing up!! Oh man we thought we were getting over this. So I've been over here taking care of sick kiddos and doing what I can with the backsplash, which isn't much LOL. But Garrett is off for the weekend so we are going to finish it today!! So we haven't been doing much thats why no updates. Just wanted to let everyone know that we are still over here!

2 Fantastic Weekends!

First off we had a fantastic weekend with Kevin, Michelle, and the girls at the Classic Fun Center. So much fun skating and bouncing!! It was awesome. And it was nice to finally meet Margart and Dave. They are a very nice couple. It was nice to get to know them alittle.
This weekend we got to see my sister, her husband, and my adorable niece, Leena. It was so much fun to just sit around, visit, and watch the kids play with eachother. It was so good to see them. And Leena is getting so big. She's so much fun and the kids really enjoyed getting to play with her too!

So here at home we a working on a backsplash for the kitchen. It is coming along, but is taking alot longer than we both thought! Always does though huh! Anyway it looks so good and we are very proud of the small part we have done! Looking forward to a relaxing weekend this weekend of tile and grout. Pictures to come of the FINISHED kitchen later!! HEHE.
