Home Improvements

July has been a busy month for us as far as repairs.  Larry Denzil finally got the boys triple bunk built.  Extremely heavy bed that is definitely staying here after we move.  Anyways, it has made their room less crowded and more livable.  




We also got a free bunk bed for the girls.  Savannah loves it.  Ruby could care less, but she is out of the crib and in a big girl bed.  Just one more milestone she has met.



Larry Denzil was out of town this week so I did some home improvements of my own.  I installed curtains in the kids bedrooms and I painted their bathroom.  Painting a bathroom sounds easy unless it is my kids bathroom.  I had to repair all the holes, do some sanding, and wipe down all the fingerprints and crayon marks.  My kids love me.  Anyways, after a day of sweat and tears, I was able to put a fresh coat of melon green paint on the walls.  Yes it is bright, but very kid appropriate.  They love it.

Wow, I would never even think of tackling a painting job on my own. It looks awesome!

I can't believe Ruby is in a big girl bed! Our kids are growing up on us. Actually, though, I still have Carter in a crib and am going to keep him in it until we have a new baby. It doesn't bother him to sleep in it and I know he isn't going anyplace!

What on Earth!? How can you not stop and smile?

This morning I woke up and felt really good and energized. I was just ready to start the day. I had a little fun on the wii fit at 5:30Am before waking the kids.   A Valentine's gift from a dear husband.  I love video games and well, you might as well exercise while playing. Afterwards, I started with my chores.  Just trying to tackle  one room at a time.  The first room I cleaned was the children's living room.  Why did I choose this room? I knew Ethan & Ruby would play and watch TV, but I had no idea they would do this!? Here is a darling Ruby Isabella exhausted and asleep after her mayhem and destruction. Yes, that is toilet paper all over the floor. An entire roll they managed to toss all over the living room. They also got a hold of the baby bath and made some bubbles in  the boys bedroom, and got a hold of the lotion and squirted it all over  the footboard on my bed.  Where am I during all this? Feeling really good because I had washed, dried, and folded 4 loads of la...

Apple Festival

OK,  I was too excited to wait on this new post.  We went to the Hendersonville Apple Festival this afternoon.  We have lived here 2 years and this was our first time going.  It was fun.  People had their crafts for sale and of course, lots of apples.  Anyways, center stage, a band was performing old rock n roll music.  We stopped to take a break and enjoy ice cream.  While sitting there, a square dancer asked Larry Denzil to be her partner in the square dancing routine.  Talk about a laugh, I hope you guys enjoy the pictures.  Did I forget to mention that the Hurts were in for a visit? Ok, here is Larry Denzil having a great time square dancing. I think he has found his true calling. Here is little Larry relaxing during the bands gig. Here is Larry Denzil and the little old lady who asked him to be her partner.  Poor thing, I do not think she read the back of his shirt.  He had the number  7 and at the top it said Baby Maker.  This was his work soft ball shirt. He is actually enjoying...
