Computer/craft table

The beginning.. Don't mind my tree stump stands. I had to paint out in the junkyard so that I didn't spray paint my casa:)

Luckily before I started glazing/distressing this beauty myself my friend Jill (who by the way is amazing at this kind of stuff) showed up to help me!

We beat this sucker with chains, screwdrivers, hammers, and sanded it until my sander broke. tear:(

Not bad for my 1st glazing project.

Steal of a deal!

A couple of weekends ago I bought this little baby at a yard sell for $5.00

After 4 coats of black paint and accidentally dropping it in to the fresh cut grass here it is! Not too shabby. Now if Russ would hang it up I would be in business.

Next on the list is my craft room/computer desk!

The big 2!

Yesterday my babies turned 2!

We got a fire pit, had a BBQ, made home made banana ice cream and had a b-day party for them and Aub. She turned the big 22 on the 16th!

We went and got the rocking chair that my Mom had when she was prego with me out of storage.

We obviously will not be rocking babies, but Kaia loves it.

She loves Russ more than anything:)

This is my baby. I love this little guy so much.

Russell's Dad came down to pick up some things for his trailer and we went with him.That is where I discovered true love:) Look at this baby.. I told Russ when I make my first million doing hair I'm going to get it!

Seriously amazing!

We could sell our house and be camp hosts!

I wonder if they will trade us straight across for ours.. After we left that one Russ had to go and freshen up in another one. He was too tall for all of the showers and too long for all of the beds!

Pretty good weekend overall. Found some cool furniture to re-do at a yard sale, along with my sweet rocking chair. Now we are off to Fairview to look at a 72' Chevy.

As if my yard doesn't already look like a junk yard!

Busy weekend!

This morning we went to Deer Creek around 9-ish. We did not catch a thing, so we came home and decided to clean up the yard a little and paint our porch railings before they rust away.

Don't mind the junk-yard behind us.. That's a whole other post!

It was 82 degrees today according to my car so we headed on down to McDonald's and got a frozen lemonade.

And the finished product.After we painted the railings we gave the dogs a bath and went to Utah Lake. Seriously not a good fishing day:( It was so windy that you couldn't even cast. We gave up and came home to play a little Frisbee!

We are all exhausted and ready for bed! This has been the longest 3 day weekend of my life. And I am ready to go back to work. Where I am FOR SURE it is less stressful than being at home:)

Fishing in the dark

(Sorry about the sideways pictures)

I took these with my tellie and I have no clue how to flip them:(

Last night Russ and I went fishing. We didn't catch anything but it was still so much fun.

We hit up Del Taco and off we went!

I love this picture of our poles..

My creative power bait photo shoot.

Love him.. He is my Master-Baiter!

These little guys were eating all of Russell's sunflower seeds.

I love living where we do. 5 minutes from the canyon, 3 from the lake. It makes quick fishing trips easy to do.. Hopefully my next fishing post has a big ole catfish in it:)

Walk it off

Tonight we went on a family walk to the hospital and back. ( about 2 miles)
Since we have all put on a little extra winter insulation we have been going on walks or to the gym every night. I don't think that these two knew what they were getting in to!

The second we got home Grizzly collapsed on the grass. Look at his tongue!

And Kaia Lou is determined to get her puppy bikini body back:)

I love Spring walks!

Memories and My dream home

Main Street, American Fork. I love this street. I love this town.

This is the house that my Dad grew up in. It is about 2 blocks down the street from our house. I am in love with everything about this house. If I had all of the money in the world this is the house I would pick. My Dad is always telling me stories about growing up there.

One day he brought home a couple of baby goats. Some how they had snuck into the house and went out an open window onto the roof. My Granny (His Mom) could not figure out why people were stopping and pointing at her house. Well the roof was covered in baby goats! I cant drive by without thinking about that!

They use to hide on the roof and throw apples at people driving by. They people would get out and search for the "apple throwers" but they could never find them.

Or the time when my Grandpa Ince brought his horse into the house for the night.. He brought him right on into the living room!

Historic home of Thomas Singleton, 1896

I could sit on this front porch forever!

Maybe someday I'll move "UP" on Main Street.
