Can you say... tttooo much FUN!!

Is it possible to have ttttooo much fun?? Our month started out with a trip to Pheonix to bless Mandy and Cams baby, Charlie Kate. Isn't she a cutie! Her Great G-ma and G-pa came all the way from Rupert to see her. That is true love!
Then we caravaned back to St. George with Mand and the kids, picking Katie up in Vegas on the way. Niki, Cole and Brian, Cris, Mathis and his friend Meagan all came down for a long weekend. We cooked, ate, played pickle ball, swam and hiked until we couldn't fit any more fun in!!!
Everyone but Mand, Nik and kids have gone home. (They are killing time until their hubbies are home from their scout hikes.) We have all four crazy kids here and we are trying to think up the next FUN thing to do!! Any suggestions???

It's coming right along!


The remodel is coming right along. Last night I was finally able to get down and scrub the floor so that we could walk around without shoes for the first time in weeks!
I love how the tin ceiling turned out. I have always wanted one. That corner in the picture was a bugger to get right. I think three tiles got ruined in the process.
I can't believe how much room there is now that we moved the sink to the window and took out the fireplace wall.






I'm kinda sad that Jakey didn't make it here before they put the hand rail down the stairs. It would have made a great jumping off point!!
The kids will all be here the weekend of the 12th. It will be so nice to have it all done and be able to relax together!
A couple of outlets, my backsplash, a set of curtians and the pendant lighting and we will be done!! (for this round anyway:)

We are sooo excited!!!!


We are so excited for Katie and Benny's baby!!! Is it totally wrong to hope for a girl so that I can use this, cute as all heck fabric, that I could not leave the store without?? Maybe my tearing things down addiction is not the only one I have:)!!??

Why do I do this to myself?????

The whole remodel process is a crazy mess. I know this, but I just keep doing it!!!! Does that make me some kind of addict!? Could I be hooked on ripping things down? Where do I go for HELP?

Have I been gone that long??

I wanted to see if I can really do this blogging thing without help from someone younger than me!

Potato Slide!!!



Grandpa thought it would be fun to take the grandkids on a ride on his homemade slide!! And also give their mother higher bloodpressure!

Bumpa and grandkids riding horses!


When the grandkids were up for potato harvest, grandpa took them on a horseback ride. Alex thought she was the real deal cowgirl and Jake just kept saying wwwwooooaaahh!! They had a great time, and grandpa was equally happy.
