Dillon's Room

Dillon's room turned out better than I thought that it would. Since he is hardly ever home, I just took some random pictures. At the time, his room wasn't all the way put back together. Maybe someday he will actually get it looking better and then I could take a few more pictures.

Brooke's Room

Brooke's room is PINK!!! She loves it and that's all that matters. Unlike Jenna, she didn't clean her room too well, but this is how she lives and if she's ok with it, I guess that I am too.

Jenna's Room

This is the color that Jenna picked for her room. It turned out nice and she loves it. She wanted me to take some pictures, so she cleaned her room. I must say that I don't think it has ever been so spotless!!!

Kitchen

Here are the before and after painting pictures for the kitchen.

The Family Room:

Painting

It's finally time to add some color to our house. I don't know why it has taken me so long other than the fact that painting is not a favorite of mine. I love it when it is done, but it is just so much work, and I have alot to do, so it feels so overwhelming. Here are a couple of before and after pictures of this big project. The before pictures are from before we bought the house. I'm sad to say that the before pictures I took were all blury, so I've decided to use these. This house was WHITE!!! I love how it has turned out so far!!! The living room:

Dillon's 16th Birthday!

Dillon turned 16 on September 6th! I can't believ how fast he has grown up!!! It seems like just yesterday that he was my handsome little boy and now he is a typical teenager! Anyway, we just had a simple little party for him. He had baseball practice until 8. He didn't want a party with friends, so this is what he got.

Brooke's New Glasses

Here she is with her new reading glasses!!!

First Day of School

Tuesday the 28th was the first day of school! Dillon is a sophomore, Jenna is in 8th and Brooke is in 5th!

Summer Vacation

Well, since Dillon has been playing Legion ball all summer, we kept putting off a family vacation. We finally decided that we had better go on one or else we wouldn't get it done. We left Friday morning and drove to Lagoon. We spent the day there and had a great time. Saturday we went to Salt Lake and went to Temple Square and the new City Creek Center. Dillon loved the FANZZ store (no big surprise), the girls loved the Disney Store and Jason loved the Rock Mountain Chocolate Factory--only because they have tons of varieties of caramel apples!! We stayed in Salt Lake Saturday night and drove back home Sunday afternoon. Our trip was short and quick, but we had a great time. The saddest part of our whole trip was that I only took a few pictures. Oh well!!
