Our first wind storm!

Provo just had a huge wind storm that blew my garden decorations around. So while I was out grabbing them to put in the garage Zoe looked out side. The shingles off my roof were blowing off (because they were not sealed right). Zoe was crying and shaking because she was afraid the how was going to blow down. I felt so bad for her. Now I have to call the insurance to make a claim or Spud will have another project to do.

Project #1: Zoe's New Room!

ZOE'S NEW ROOM


These pictures are the before, I left out the closet ones because there is really nothing to see, So the bedroom is white with no carpet. Spud took off all the baseboards because he is putting up bead board tonight. Her room has a lot of light which is nice and is right next to Zayden's room. She can't wait to move downstairs.

Theses pictures show the painting process. Spud and Zoe did most of it, and yes that is the baby bump at 26 weeks (6mo.) And the last picture is Zoe showing off. So tomorrow I will post the pictures with the bead board and then we wait for carpet on May 6th.
Here is a list of the next few projects with the deadline of May 6th:
  1. Finish Zoe's room
  2. Start and finish Zayden's room
  3. Paint the kids bathroom and decorate (ocean/fish theme)
  4. Paint the downstairs hall
  5. Carpet installed "I AM SO EXCITED"
I will post before and after pictures of them all.

Planter Boxes!

Today Spud and I took Zoe and my sister Rosie and her son Karson to Home Depot to the kids craft thing. Today since it's supposed to be spring they made planter boxes. After they were finished we took them to the garden center and they picked out flowers for their boxes. Karson wanted red flowers and Zoe wanted yellow and black ones. We came home and put weed guard in the bottom of the box with garden soil and then planted the flowers. Such proud kids!
To top off the day we went to my parents birthday BBQ and I made Oreo cupcakes they were so good!
