I can't handle it!!!!!

Ok, I can't handle the suspense!!! I just have to post pictures! The piano is DONE!!!!!! It was a great project and I'm finding myself bored... I have nothing to do at night anymore! I guess I'll have to start reading again!! I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am with my piano! It looks a thousand times better!!!! I never thought it could look this good!! I know you have seen before pics but I have to put them next to each other just so everyone can get the full effect!! Enjoy!! Now, if you can't tell which one is the before picture then I have a huge problem! :) I love that the keys reflect on the wood. The stain is black but in some places it's lighter. Old:
NEW!!

Piano

Here's some pictures of the piano during the stripping process. This is when the piano was half way stripped I thought the differences were cool.

This is what the stripper looks like while it's working. Gross..

The side of the piano stripped and sanded!

Stay tuned for pictures of the final result!!

Summer Fun!


At the beginning of the summer we decided to get the boys a slip and slide! it's been fun but our water pressure isn't very good and so it doesn't spray quite as impressively as the picture on the box does!! :) But Cahlin and Eyan still love it! I need to be a better mom and get it out more often! Here's a pic of Cahlin the first day we got it.

Slacker

So, I've been a huge slacker when it comes to the blogging world. I haven't posted anything, I haven't commented on anything. I officially have lost my blog addiction. I'm very sad that it's gone. I need to get it back! We've done lots of fun things this summer and I haven't posted anything! I'm horrible. I've also lost my camera in the last 3 days so, if anyone finds it, let me know!! :) Hopefully I will jump back on the wagon and get going again soon. Sorry, I haven't commented on anyone's posts either. I do read most everyone's blogs I just haven't been commenting! Have a great week!!!

Slacker

So, our internet has not been working lately so I come to you from the LIBRARY! I love it! I feel like my whole life is out and everyone can see everything here! Anyways, life is great. Kevin isn't leaving for Basic Training for a long while and so we are excited to have a great family summer! Father's day was great fun! The boys got Kevin the Perfect Pullup.... he loves it! Plus, Cahlin gets a good workout too, ( with dad's help). We haven't been up to very much. We are excited to have a good ole' Idaho 4th of July. But we heard that it might rain... and that makes us very sad. We are also excited to go camping in 2 weeks and I have a wedding cake this next weekend so keep your eyes out for that! Oh, and for some big news...... Eyan is finanlly WALKING!!! Every single day he gets better and better! We are so proud of him for taking the plung into toddlerhood! We hope everyone is having a great summer and enjoying the sunshine while it lasts! We love you all!!
