Transforming my House into a Home

For the last three weeks This is how my kitchen has looked. About 1 month ago we decided to pull up all my flooring in the kitchen and in the family room and redo it all. We pulled up all the nasty linoleum in the kitchen and laid new linoleum tiles which turned out really nice. We were able to do it all in one weekend. That was great. So since that went so well, Robbie decided that we should go ahead and tackle the family room as well. One night he came over and said "let's pull up the carpet then you can get started". And so it all began.


















It wasn't too bad the first week. We had to get the flooring which took a few days. Then we got this part of the floor all laid about one week into the project.

Then it got so hot that there was no way we were working in this house which only has fans to cool it down. So about 4 days later we got to the next phase of the room.


Isn't he so cute. It is so nice to have someone so willing to help me and be there for me through all this fun.

Since I had no kitchen this was how we ate for about 2 weeks.

Finally about 1 week ago we finished. It looks so wonderful. It's amazing how good it looks. At points it seemed like we were never going to finish, but the end result has been so worth it!!! Don't you just love it?

Events that May or Maynot have Happened!

So I have heard tell that many events have happened with my family since my departure in May. However since I have yet to see any evidences of these things I am unsure at this time whether they are fact or fiction. According to these tales, Chad graduated from high school, Heidi got married and a week later Craig got married. I have no physical evidences of any of these events, I can only go off of what I have been told. Hmmm is it true or just a tall tale for my family to tell??? I hope someday to see actual pictures of these so called events that took place. It seems that unless you live close you don't get to take part in these events. I guess since everyone else in my family lives in Utah and were able to attend these alleged events no pictures were necessary. Therefore I have no pictures to post at this time of any of the events in question. If and when I finally do receive some "pictures" I will be happy to share them with all of you! Then and only then will I actually believe that such events took place. I am very hopeful that this may persuade the guilty parties to actually send me proof of all the proceedings that have taken place in my absence. I guess we shall see!
