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?
This year Uncle Clause payed a visit to our annual Christmas Eve party. It was hilarious!!! He tried to suprise the kids but he couldn't fool anyone especially when his beard started to fall off but the kids all loved it anyway.
Kaylee's favorite present and they even have matching jammies!
The boys favorite presents!!
Out of all the presents she loved this pretend purse and lipstick.
This was actually the day before but the kids built quit a fort.
We took our annual trip to see the lights at Temple Square. This sure is becoming one of my kids favorite traditions.
Nobody would stay still long enough to get a good picture. Oh well.
This hotel has the funnest swimming pool and it even has a water slide.
This little rascal turned 9 months. she loves animals, daddy and playing peek a boo. Unfortunately she has had 4 ear infections in the past two months. So she will be getting tubes in Jan. She weighed 16.1 lbs at her 9 month check and was in the 8 percentile but I'm sure we'll catch up. Mine don't stay little for too long. She is an expert crawler now and pulls herself up to standing. It's hard to believe she will be walking soon.
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.
