Great mother's day ideas & inspiration

A while back I shared the darling ironing board cover I purchased from my friend Paula. I wanted to share her link with you all because she has more darling ironing board covers to choose from on her etsy shop. These are great ideas as shower gifts or for mother's day. Check it out.

Also, look at the cute baby stuff Christy has made lately. I love this highchair slip cover. I may have to copy her. She also made a great car seat canopy. Instructions on how to make are on her blog.

Blog header

Andrew is trying his hand at illustrator designing a new blog header
for march. Stay tuned...

Btw- I'd be a design rock star if I had illustrator at 10!

2 houses - under contract

It's been a quick two weeks. Holy cow quick! Our Kalinda home is officially under contract. YEAH! Fingers crossed that all the little things that must happen to make the sell complete happen. We also extended an offer, which has been accepted, on a new home just a couple of blocks away. YEAH! Will post pictures soon. As you can imagine we have lots of packing, cleaning and house details (along with work and regular life) that need to take place in the coming weeks. We will be busy but this is an exciting time and we are excited. I will likely be more absent on this blog over the next couple weeks but will try to update atleast via phone.

We leave for the Brooks anniversary/reunion in Oregon tonight and are looking forward to seeing everyone. We will be back in Utah on Monday.



Legal side note. I've update a few things on my blog to be in compliance with a new policy at work. If you see your link is suddenly missing, no worries, I still love you and will visit your site but I can no link directly to you.

I owe Andrew 5 dollars

The boys decided to get a little wet this afternoon. Never leave a water hose unattended. They were sopping wet and I decided to snap a few quick photos. Andrew was mad that I took his picture all soaked (I think we was a little angry he didn't have the hose). He said "no blogging" the photo unless you pay me. The price started at 100.00 dollars and after much back and forth we landed on 5. I think it is worth it, now we will see how long it takes him to collect.
