Where We’re At

20 Jul 2012

We are back from Camp July, and the house is painted!


Camp July Denver, 2012, was so much fun. It was a well deserved vacation with lots of swimming, shopping, cooking, drinking, swearing, all that good Camp July stuff. Hopefully it won’t take me a YEAR to post the photos! We even got a taste of the Rockies! So beautiful, and adventurous. Photos soon I promise.

Anyways, back to the house.
I know, crappy iphone photo, but IT MAKES ME HAPPY:

If you had told me this would be my kids room, even a couple months ago, I wouldn’t have believed you. It’s just exactly what I wanted. When does that happen?! (Thank you, Honey!!) Apparently it happens 7 years after you move in. The floors were literally giving us splinters, and once the floors were done, (during Marie & Alex’s Wedding!?!?) well then we could not let the opportunity pass to paint. Our stuff is all helter-skelter around the garage, and downstairs. Oscar and Lucy are sleeping in the mud room. The Piano is in the Kitchen!

I hope to to a “before and after” post with lots of photos.
But before that can happen I have Soooooooo much work to do! Happily, it’s all good stuff, and maybe we can lighten our load. Too many things have gotten oppressive! Salvation Army, here we come.

I feel like I should mention Oscar & Lucy, as this is their blog. Oscar knows everything and wants to play video games all day. Yawn.
Lucy (a.k.a. The Kraken) is asking to go to Laurel Hill every 30 minutes. She’s ready. I keep trying to explain how much summer we still have! Camping, Disneyland, and breaking news, Fiona is coming to town! Lots of cousins are in the kids’ future. :)

Ok, signing off from my folding table. (jiggle jiggle)

CAMP JULY Slideshow – Denver 2010

24 Jun 2011

Just in time! I finally got this off my “to-do” list, and it only took me eleven months. :)

Show notes:
Most photos were taken by Kristi. Yes, she does rock. No, Rob played his “get-out-of-jail” card. Yes, the head lice were successfully fended off with lots of Tea Tree Oil. No, that was a bee sting. Yes, Calamity Jane, a.k.a. Kristi, was on crutches. And antibiotics again. Lucy was 8 1/2 months. The puppy, Stella, was *brand new*, the weather was Gorgeous, and this WILL be the last year of cute kids with no clothes on (in pictures anyways). And YES Camp July is on for 2011, San Francisco!!!

Mothers Day 2011

09 May 2011

I think Mothers Day is better than my birthday.
It’s the same “hook up” but with out the aging!

Oscar drew me a card:

and wrote a lot of nice things!

Mark gave me a very sentimental gift! And it was a surprise, too.
The first time I saw it was while shopping in Denver last summer with Kristi and Melissa.
It was love at first sight, but I did not think I would ever see it again.
I guess I got a little help from my friends! Thanks you guys! xoxo
