Wrestle Mania

C.J. had his first wrestling match. Who knew my quiet little C.J. would be such a great wrestler. He won both his matches 19-1 and 20 -2. But whether he wins more or looses some the look of determination on his face was priceless. We are so proud of him.

Our new love for all things OLD ....

Jesus and I have always loved old things. He grew up on a farm in the country. So anything old reminds him of when he was little. My dad always collected antiques. We also went on alot of trips to Nebraska where my dad was from. On the way stopping at pioneer villages, Old buildings and cemeteries.I always loved wondering what things looked like when they were new and who used them. Jesus has been watching the show American Pickers lately. He brought me home this old window one day. So I put it in my family room.


I also have been wanting to refinish my bathroom cabinets but couldn't afford all new ones. This was quit the project. I love to paint but am defiantly not a professional. I get paint everywhere then get all stressed out about it. Thank goodness my husband was home sick to calm me down. Let's just say there where some tears shed in this project. Also some touch ups to be made but all in all I like the way it turned out. And plan on doing it in my master bath but black.



Sorry for the sideways pics. If any of you out there know how to turn them please let me know. I hope to visit our antique guy soon to check out his collection of old handles to add.






Lastly this is Jesus's newest collection. Cool huh?
