Basement Cont.

So after many weeks we finally got the carpet in and we could play! The kids loved it down there and I love when they are down there!! There is still a lot of finishing touches, but it is a place to play for now. Tyler the wonderful and talented man that he is did all the tile work again and I love it. My purple wall, yep bright purple, that's my room. I will have my workout stuff down there as well as all the craft and school projects. I wanted the room to make you smile so that I am happy when I am there doing things!!! Tyler got a room to, we call it the man cave, currently it has no paint or walls and a cement floor, but he is happy with it!!!!

The basement!!!!!

Ok so the project began in early December, thanks to some great family and friend we framed up the basement in just about a day. It was now time for the fun stuff! Oh wait the holidays have to fit in there so the basement had to wait. Finally we got all the guys here for the before the walls go up stuff. Then the MESS of the sheet rock. I guess I really did not know how much MESS that was going to be. But word the the wise it was the messiest thing ever! With the sheet rock up these pictures tell the story. Spencer is standing in his new room with his closet. Ryan and Aubrey are playing in the new princess house. (so cute) and then the family room.

Christmas Day

Well I wish I could say I have a ton of pictures from this day, however they are on the flip and right now I have no idea how to really get them on here! I will figure it out one day. Or just not use it on holidays!!! Christmas was fun this year. The girls got a huge kitchen and the boys got nerf guns and Spencer got his hunting game for the WII Ryan got a tag and a fishing game. It was fun to have everyone over and enjoy the days around this special time of year.

Where has the time gone!

Ok so here is a quick update, these pictures are from Christmas eve and the fun around that time. We made our first turkey ever this year and it was WONDERFUL thanks to a yummy brine that we got from a friend. The turkey was marinating for 4 days!!! Yummy!
