A Long Delay!

Sorry that I haven't posted anything for a while. My sisters and friends are wondering what happened to me cause I am usually a faithful blogger. I've got good reasons though. It seems like there is always a lot going on! To recap on what has been happening with us.

On Easter Sunday, the kids woke up and noticed that the Easter bunny came to our house. Caleb was so excited and little Izzy couldn't wait to start breaking open the candy filled eggs. The kids had fun doing a little egg hunt and loading up on sweets at 7am. B stayed home from church with Izzy because she was still sick. I don't know if I told you but she had the croup and I didn't want her around all of the kids in nursery. I took Caleb and enjoyed an afternoon in Relief Society. I love being there! I ended up missing Easter dinner at my mom's house cause I stayed with Izzy. B took him though and they had a good time and a fun Easter egg hunt in Grandma Jensen's yard. I enjoyed Easter dinner with leftovers. It was still a fun day. I'm crossing my fingers that my kids won't be sick on anymore big holidays!


Here are some fun pictures.

This past week I have been doing a remodel to my kitchen. Even though it is only a year old, I felt like it needed a little "sprucing" up. So let me tell yo what I did! First, for 3 straight days I rag painted my family room, dining room , and kitchen. It looks awesome. No one showed me how to do it, I just figured it out myself. It's a lot easier than regular painting! Then B and I layed a tiled back-splash all day Saturday. We really didn't know how to do that either. Thanks Danny and Kim for talking us through how to do it. That is a BIG project! Monday, I spent all day grouting the tile. It looks great! Then, today I went and bought handles for my cabinets and I installed beed-board around my island and painted it black. That's not as easy as it looks. I didn't know how to do that either. Thanks LOWES! I don't think you all understand that when I say I that means me and only me! B did help me with the tile. Thanks babe! It would be completely done if I hadn't broken the drill bit for install the rest of the handles. Here is a picture of my kitchen. How does it look? I guess you can call me Mrs. handywoman!

B can't believe how much I have done. I just love these kind of projects. There are so many things that I want to do to my house but, right now I am pretty burned out. So, that's why I haven't been posting lately. Now that I am done I will be more on top of it.
