Patio Update

ITS ALMOST DONE!!!!

Here are the kiddos messing with the newest addition to our patio, the cabinets!

Above the cabinets will be the back splash

This and That...

Not a whole lot going on. Last weekend we went to the lake to get a change of scenery since we have been stuck inside with sick kids. It was good for about a day. They kiddos went crazy and we headed back home. Good news is... everyone is WELL.
Now I need some advice.
1. how to get rid of Brandon's paci
2. what to do about the boys not wanting to play together. Brandon will try and play with John but John seems scared of Brandon, he screams when he get close. How can I help this?


Here are some updated pictures of the back patio... its almost done :-)

We are putting cabinets next to the grill
This is the pattern we are using for the outdoor kitchen

This is what happens to my kids when we are stuck in the house all day sick and drugged up on Motrin.

Porch Update

We have a roof!!!

Porch Update

They said they would be done with the porch by the weekend. Brian and I are so excited, we can't wait to go patio shopping!

August... where has the time gone?

I can not believe that it is August, I really can't. This month I have to shop for things for mothers day out. That is just freaking me out. In a month the boys will be playing 2 days a week without me. I am super excited yet very nervous about the whole thing. I think I might even start tennis lessons while they are away!

Not much has been happening these last two days but here is an update anyways. Brian and I have decided to build a covered porch. We have been debating about it for a long time now since we know this is not the home we will be in forever we were wondering if it was worth it. We do know that we will be here for at least another 3-4 years so we gave it a GO.

Here is the work in progress...

Had to include these blackmail pictures of Brandon

Also a year in the making. We got these pictures taken last October and finally hung them on the wall.

Not much of anything

Since we have been home we have just been trying to relax. Monday it rained here which was great and Brandon played in the rain for the first time. John was a little weary of it. John has become obsessed with lamps. He loves for people to turn them all on... in every room. They both have been into shoes lately too. As you can see....

Here they are as it rains

Brandon in the rain

Once he got use to it we could not get him to come inside

Just had to include this picture of John
