Fall 2010

Abby & I loaded up the boys on Saturday for some fall pictures....it's always my favorite time of year to photograph them!

This slideshow of pictures are so cool! They were all taken by Aunt Abby on....drum roll please.... her IPHONE! I can hardly believe a phone took such cool looking pictures...of course, you have to have "cool" kids to get "cool" pictures!

I can't wait to see how the pictures from my camera will turn out...I just have to locate where my cord is so that I can import them into the computer!!! so stay tuned!

so i've been bad!

yes, i will agree...i've been bad...i haven't blogged in forever...it's like our life has stopped. haha...i promise i will get back on here soon and update with some pictures of what we've been up to. I've got some photo's of Ty's soccer season, last day of preschool & more...

the kiddo's are really growing. i swear Ty must be hitting a grow spurt...he used to eat like a bird and now he is finishing his plate and then finishing ike's plate. i wonder if he'll be as tall as zach? Ike has made lots of new friends at story-time at the library. he loves playing with others! Kane is SO BIG! he's walking & talking...baby talk that is. He waves & claps and says hi & bye-bye, momma & dada! I know he is overdue for his first hair cut...but I just can't imagine cutting those cute blonde curls! He is like my little abby of the family, blonde hair & blue eyes. He is such a loveable baby...he loves giving hugs & kisses!

I promise to post some pictures of my little guys ASAP

My Front Porch Looking In.....

You know that country song...On my front porch looking in...just heard it...decided to post a few pics I found on inspiration for redoing my enclosed front porch! Zach finished some of the walls that needed replaced out there...so now it is ready for me to make my mark on it...I never really know what to "call" my sense of style/decorating...I wonder what they would call it on those designer shows...because I'm somewhat tradition, somewhat eclectic, somewhat shabby chic, somewhat retro, somewhat craftsman...I like a mix - but I know what I like...

Anyways for those of you that don't know we've be renovating and redecorating our home for the last 4 years we have lived in it! It's been a lot of work, but thank heavens I married quite the handy man! If there is something Zach doesn't know how to do or has never done before he just gets in there and figures it out! I love that about him! Of course when you do the work yourself and on a tight budget work takes longer - but that's the way to do it...little by little it will all come together...But poor Zach's honey-do-list is always growing...One project gets done or halfway done for that matter - and I'm seeing the next thing!! *Zach you're the best!! thank you*

Anyway...I was online searching for backslashes for my kitchen (zach put in new cabinets and counters, etc...) I am pretty sure I want a brick one!! there was an old brick chimney that we found when we tore down a wall...so the chimney is in my kitchen...I love it...i thought the backsplash in brick would tie it together...anyway i found some pictures of what I am wanting my backsplash to look like...and i came across some more photo's for other ideas for my house!! I thought I would share some of my ideas for my enclosed front porch...i've been saying i need a coat tree! of course this won't take up my whole porch...but just right when you come in the front door!!
