Our entry way

Our formal dinning room

Our somewhat formal sitting room even though the furniture isn't really formal.

The office not very neat either don't know what to do with it except to hang our racing pictures

Here is our messy laundry room. I still need to get some cabinets for above the washer and dryer. On the left side you can't see is a wash out sink with the laundry shoot and cabinets.

The only pictures now that are missing pictures is the downstairs bathroom that we need to decorate and the guest/nanny room with her own big walk in bathroom. Once the upstairs is done we will post pictures of that.

Our Kitchen

Well I'm having problems downloading the pictures of the whole down stairs and am loosing patients so for now you just get the pictures of the kitchen. And.....Yes... we got a fridge!!! I have a stove top burner with double ovens you can't see in the picture. Love it! The eating nuke you can't really see either but you get the jif. You all just have to come see it. I love to have Kayslee play with other kids while you grown ups have a date at the temple or were ever it might be. Hopefully I can get this stupid thing working and post more pictures.

We Have Moved!!!!

Well this weekend we moved into our new home. Everything went pretty smoothly with a few headaches. Our biggest one was the day we got our keys we went by and moved a few things in and hooked up the water line and power to the Kitchen Aid sub zero fridge that came with the house. Well the next morning when the painters arrive to paint the inside of my house the doors were wide open and fridge was gone!! SOMEONE BROKE INTO MY NEW HOUSE:((((( It was so sad. Needless to say the alarm in my house is up and running. I have never had an alarm before but I really like it. How did I live without one before. Anyways back to my fridge. That fridge made my kitchen. We have been pricing them and they cost anywhere between $7000-10,000. Who has that? Well hopefully the insurance will pick up the tab so we can get the same fridge. I will post pictures when we get all in. The painters did a great job. We had every room painted except Maddee's room both guest rooms and the work out room. It looks so good.

Girls Weekend Out

This weekend the boys took a "boy trip" to California to go to a car show/swap meet for car parts. So.....the girls and I packed up the trailer and headed out to the race track to party and camp out. Boy did we have a blast. We did karaoke, hula hooped, ate lots of hummy food, and just party like rock stars. Here are some fun pictures.

This is Kayslee's first time roasting a marshmallow.

Here are some fun clips of the party as dusk. I was having way to much fun.

Here is the wonderful cake that Paul had made for the party. While we were getting things decorated and setting up I lost my Maddee. We found her though under the table laughing as she was hiding from us.

This was a fun weekend with just the girls and I.

When we got home Kayslee had to call her "papa" to tell him all about her weekend and as she was talking to him in her dirty slippers she crossed her legs and look so adorable I just had to take a picture.

Then "bubba" got home and was cleaning his room and this is what they looked like.

Community Barbeque

A lot of you might not love having a home owners association and neither did I until I became on the board. I love my community. This is one thing I'm going to miss when we move. We have so much fun and give back more than we put in. This weekend we had a hug block party with a DJ, a 20 by 20 jumper for the kids that had a big slide in it, ice cone machine, popcorn machine and a ton of food and drinks. We sure know how to party all day. Every 15 minute we had a drawing giving out some good stuff such as a crock pot, a blender, pot and pans, outdoor chairs and so much more. Every homeowner that attended walked away with something. Then every kid walked away with a movie and other stuff. We sure know how to keep our homeowners happy and in return they keep our community happy and looking good. Here are just a few pictures. At the bottom is a picture of all the board members :)

And then there is the bubble bath to clean up the kids. Maddee looked so cute with bubbles on her face and Richard and I were laughing so Kayslee decided to be funny to and put bubble on her face. Kids are so darn cute. I must add...this is Maddee's first bubble bath.

Happy 4th Anniversary

Today we are celebrating our 4th anniversary. After Brandee got off work she ran picked up Tyler from baseball practiced then rushed home to get ready as the same time Richard was rushing home from looking and trying to fix his step brothers car. After all this rushing around we made it only 5 minutes late to the Stratosphere for a wonderful relaxing Fillet dinner. Brandee was in charge of the planning this year as Richard planned last year at Lawyres. I wonder what will be next year Richard? A specail thanks goes out to Jeannine and Tyler for watching the kids. Thanks!

Happy Easter!

I just love Easter! This is my favorite holiday besides Christmas. There are so many activities you can do such as egg coloring, ginger bread house decorating and sugar cookie making to name a few that we did. Today we woke up and saw the great baskets that the Easter bunny brought the kids. Following that, we had a great waffle and eggs breakfast. It's so fun being a mom.

Richard here..... Brandee was in charge of building the house and the walls were falling down and she was putting things on backwards......I'm scared cause she wants to do things to the new house. Should I let her?

We also went to a car show Saturday that Grandpa Jack's car was in out at railroad pass. I love when the weekends are here. No work just family time. Why do I have to go back to work? O ya we need money. Silly me. :))))
