I'm in Heaven

Here is my sad, tiny, old, little fridge. I've begged Robbie for years to get a new one but this one was funtioning so the answer was "no". I'm afraid I would be using this fridge for years to come and with growing boys to feed I NEEDED an upgrade sooooooo...........

I surprised my sweet husband with THIS!!! I wouldn't recommend making big purchases like this without husband approval in most cases but THIS was a NECESSITY!

I hear ANGELS singing when I open the doors.

This was the selling feature right here.

My life is almost complete. My kids are healthy, I have my new fridge, now all I need is a Sgt. Steam.

It doesn't take much

It doesn't take much.... just some polka dot ribbon.....
to make me happy.

Third times a charm....I hope.

I have a serious illness, I paint...and paint...and paint. Maybe you remember this project from a few months ago. Well, I decided that I didn't love the red. I thought it was just too dark. So yesterday I painted it this bright red and put new silver hardware on it. But I just didn't LOVE it so this morning.......

I painted it again!!! I had some "heirloom white" spray paint that I had used from another project (which I will post about later) and some left over pretty green paint from years ago. I think I LOVE it.

It drives my mom AND husband crazy that I am constantly thinking "PAINT". But hey, there are much worse things right? And paint is cheap!

If I can MAKE it there, I'll make it ANYWHERE...

Last week was Grantsville's famous production of the First Grade Circus! I had been waiting 7 years to see my sweetest Canyon take the stage at this Greatest Show On Earth! He was a MAGNIFICENT MUSCLEMAN! Here he is warming up at home before we left for the first performance.
We went with a RODEO clown costume.....super cheap and easy, just how I like it.
Isn't he a doll?!

Max, Laramie, and Canyon at the night performance.

This was the best pic I could get from the top of the bleachers. Canyon's the one in blue. Robbie said he was the only one who could do a REAL push up. I guess that's because Robbie's been teaching him since he was 2!!! The best was his grimacing face and and shaky arms as he lifted those weights.

Warning...My Dog Can't Hold His Licker

This is Willie. He used to be our dog until my dad started feeding him table scraps a couple doors down and he never came home again. Willie is a bad influence on our new dog Hoser. Every chance he gets he lures Hoser into going on down to the end of the field to chase varmints and swim in the ponds.

Here is Hoser when he returned this evening..........

Bad, BAD DOG!

He got one heavy scolding........

...and then tried to hide because he knew what was coming.

Don't let that puppy dog face pull at your heartstrings, he is in the Dog House! GRRR!

The Greatest Gift

Something that made me laugh
