Paint Chips

As much as we love our house, the one room in it that has bothered us since we moved in was the kids bathroom. The ceiling was peeling it's horrible popcorn texture, the light fixture was falling apart, the color was dreadful and there was this ginormous closet that took up way too much space. In March, I decided that I was going to change all of that singlehandedly...Sean's hardwork would be funding the project of course ;)

I attended a tiling class at Home Depot, read the handy Home Depot Home Repair guide for tips on demolition, installing light fixtures, patching drywall, installing subfloors, plumbing, retexturing a ceiling and painting and went to work! It took about 4 weeks of intense work and more trips to Home Depot and Lowes than anyone should make in a lifetime! It was not an easy task, but to all those women out there...IT CAN BE DONE!!! And feels so freakin awesome to say that I did it myself!!

Here are the before and after pictures!






AFTER...

Funfetti Birthday Cake!

Holy Cow! Life for us has been going at top speed and it's been a while since we've updated. We'll start from May and work our way forward! At the end of May we celebrated Evee's 3rd Birthday. We can't believe our baby is already so old! She requested the traditional Dunkin Donuts breakfast, a My Little Pony Cake, a Barbie Doll for a present and her cousins, our fabulous neighbors the Pearsons and our best friends the Bendixsens over for dinner and a party. We obliged...


(I love that she is double fisting the donuts! She's definitely her mothers child!)
