Hot Water...

Whew! We dodged an expensive bullet today. The house has two 40 gallon hot water heaters and up until today we thought both of them were going to have to be replaced. A $1000 for two new ones, BUT, thanks to Mr. Handyman (my dad :)) and with a little help from our friends the two hot water heaters are like new and there is more hot water then we know what to do with. WOO-HOO!!!
Stella and I primed her room tonight. The electric purple and neon green are almost all gone. She got home from school and helped me for and hour and then went up to the house with my mom to have dinner and do homework while I got another coat on the wall. There is still some color showing but I think with one more coat tomorrow we should be all covered, and then the real fun begins. Stella is so excited to start putting the color she picked out on the wall, it makes me excited to start painting it for her, ever though I've been painting for 3 days straight, she keeps me going.



The bugger and I. Check out the awesome colors behind us! All gone now!! :)


Concentration!! :)



I finished tonight at about 9:30. I'm a tired girl and there is still TONS more to do, but I love this kind of work. Instant results for putting in the time and effort. So excited to see this house coming together.
Off to bed.....MUCH Love!

Meaning To....

I've been meaning to post pictures of the finished wall at the office for a while now but it seems like every time I remember I'm either not near a computer or something else gets in the way. Well ...here it is, we decided not to do different patio layouts on top, those are going in a different spot but we did put some large slabs on top so we could display our furniture. Now, on to the next 1,000 different projects I have in mind for around here... only that's going to have to wait till tomorrow, the lil one is not feeling well so my mama went and picked her up from school and I'm heading to the doc with her in a few hours to get her checked out. Don't think it's anything major just chest congestion , runny nose but no fever. Nothing a little rest and TLC wont fix! I love the fact that everything is finally starting to turn green. Green makes every thing look better! :)

Ski Team!

A few weeks ago Stella started training with the Eldora Ski Team every Saturday. Now Saturday's can't come soon enough. I get up at 6 and get Stella up at 6:30 and we are out the door by 7. Usually we get up to Eldora around 8:30 after making a stop to get mama coffee and Stella and donut or two! :) By 9am Stella is ripping up the slopes with her coach (Dave) and 5 other little girls her age. She is having such a blast it's hard to believe we didn't do this sooner. I never noticed these signs before and thought it was pretty cool the ski area was showing some love to the local ski programs. Stella proceed to then inform me that they've been there for quite some time. Oops! :) Stella and two of her little ski buddies! Stella ripping up the GS course! At the end of the day which is usually at 3 all the kids have to help tear down the course. Stella is doing such an awesome job that it makes me one proud mama. Much Love!!!
