Saturday fun!










This morning was so pleasant to be home with Chloe and all our dogs!  The boys were at batting practice so I did a little cleaning and a little searching for ideas for my good friend Heba's kitchen.  She is wanting to paint her cabinets and cant decide on what color.  They are white now and she is ready for something new.  Her kitchen is big and it is really exciting that she can do so much with it!  she has a victorian/country style home with a huge porch and plenty of square feet.  If you have any ideas please send them my way!  
Our son Blake and our dear friend Savannah recently shot a commercial/ banner for Woodlands Church in the Woodlands, Texas.  Pastor Kerry Shook's new message series is "Where the Wild Things Are."  The kids had a blast filming!  I think they are ready for Hollywood now!  WoodlandsChurch normally broadcasts to about 60 million viewers.  Blake wonders if anyone will notice him.  Too funny!  Pastor Kerry has an amazing gift from God and we are truly blessed to be a part of it all!

My birthday!




Today is my birthday and my friends have been so dear to me today! I have been wanted a trunk for Colby's things for quite some time. I have not been able to find one that i thought would be suitable. Either they were too old, too girlie, or just too expensive. My good friend Neile thought all this up on her own and little did i know that she had been screening me for months now! My other good friend Kara and her husband Tommy are amazing! Kara painted and Tommy built. Isnt it awesome! The pictures were taken at our school First Baptist Academy in Conroe, Texas. Colby lost his life to Leukemia at age three. Thanks guys!

Much needed space

This used to be our laundry room. Our new bedroom was added just behind that door. My son had clothes everywhere, so I shut the door! I am so happy to have an area to use my laptop and print! These are the floors that we will eventually add throught the house.


What a process!

It is still a work in progress! You can see the footprints of our sweet dogs! They didn't know what to think of the floors being off limits!





Before! Well, after the carpet!



We have recently started tearing out carpet and painting our concrete for the time being. We used Valspars's browstone which I found on thisyounghouse blog. Our long term goal is to put down the same wood floors throughout the house that are in our kitchen, new bedroom addition, and mud room. Anyway, I plan to add some new rugs and maybe even repaint our kitchen! My husband will just die if I pull out anymore paint right now. We just repainted our bedroom and I will post photos soon! Blue, Blue, Blue! I love it!

My husband is an amazing designer! Can you believe that I actually built a website before him some 13 years ago! Too bad i didnt stick with it because I am always bugging him to design for me. I am getting better though! I cant wait for him to design me a top notch blog. Since I am not a paying customer, I have to wait! just Kidding! He just completely finished our school's website which also happens to be my employer, my daughter's school and our home away from home.
