Guest Room Renovation!

Since we have moved into our new home, Brandon has a list on the refrigerator of what he wants to change/update about our home. We moved in at the end of March, and we have been busy working away at his list. One of the items on the list was to update the carpet in the spare bedroom, so we decided that Memorial Day would be a good day to knock this project out. We ripped up the old ugly purple carpet and laid down a light tan colored piece of carpet. We thought we would try this project on our own and see how it would turn out--luckily it turned out great and we now know how to lay carpet!

Here are the before, during, and after shots!

Brayden's 2nd Birthday Party

So first of all I have to apologize since it has almost been a whole month since I have blogged! This summer has been absolutely crazy for us, and I can't believe that is already half over!!! I swear I just changed my calendar to the month of June, and now I have to change it July already! Time goes by soooo fast!!

Here are our memories from Brayden's second birthday party which we hosted on May 18. We had a Minion party for him and it was so much fun! We started off the day by making cupcakes together. I just love baking with my boys. They make it so much fun and I will hold onto these memories forever! Since we are in our new house and we have a garage that doesn't terrify me, we were able to have an outside party! Brandon and I thought it would be fun to get a pinata for the kids, and we even found a Minion one so how could we resist getting it. I thought Brayden would be too little for this, but he dove right in and knew exactly what to do! They had a great time with the pinata--huge hit for the party! At the end we loaded up and hit the Dariette for some ice cream. You can celebrate a birthday without making a trip to the Dariette!

My Two Silly Boys

A few weeks ago, when the boys were suppose to be taking a nap, I could hear talking outside their bedroom so I had to peek in. This is what I found.... two boys in their underwear reading a book together. Laugh Out Loud! This made me crack up- but also melted my heart at the sametime! Needless to say, no nap that day :)
