Guest Room!

My dad thinks he is sleeping on a couch when he comes to visit... boy is he wrong! Check out this awesome guest room, it is cuter then the master!!!

Busy, Busy day!

Today was the first real Saturday we have had in a long time to go and run errands for all the little things we need for the house. First on the list was getting our new couch!!! It is SO cute and fits perfect in our little family room. I have been searching endlessly for pillows for it, and could not find any thing with red in it to match the kitchen. So, I resorted to just finding pillows I liked and "Making it work" -Tim Gunn. I think when the wall decorations are finished, it will definitely work. (You will just have to wait and see once those pictures are posted:-)) Thanks to the very kind Easter Bunny this year we found pillows and all the nic-naks we have been looking for at Target. 4 pillows for $25, not bad! Not to mention today in Las Vegas was FREE GOLDEN SPOON DAY!! And it wasn't a mini, it was a small! Don't worry, we went for both lunch and dinner. We took our nephews Mitchell (the birthday boy) and Owen to Golden Spoon for their first experiences. I think all in all they enjoyed it!

As our rooms get put together I will post more pictures. For now I have our family room couch and our guest room! (By the way, the pictures do not do the guest room justice...) I hope everyone had a good Saturday today too!

The Awkward "In Between Stage"

I love my short hair, I really do. But I HATE that I cannot do it curly, like I can when it is long. Which stinks because it totally dries out my hair blow drying it every day, and I like it curly. I have tried many a times to make is curly, and it looks like a big ole' furry fro on top of my head. So, the conclusion? It is time to grow out my hair.... Not TOO Long, but long enough to do it curly. And where does that leave me? In the awkward in between stage of not short, not long just in between where I want it to be... and every morning I feel like this....



Anyone else feel like this?? Hopefully, in a few months my hair will look like this:

(Side note... look how cute Ava was when she was 6 months old!!)

Flip that dresser...

So I totally forgot to take a before picture... But my mom had an old dresser that was her dad's and was green, then yellow, then they painted it white and gave it to my mom to use in high school. It has been sitting in her office and I asked if I could have it. And sanded it down to its original wood, then painted it white. We bought some new hardware for it, and decapoged (spelling?) a piece of paper to the top. All in all, it turned out very well!! It looks SO cute next to my red/tan desk (more pictures to come once the office is in a more orderly manner!

Sorry for the delay....

I'm so sorry we haven't posted in a week or so. We just go internet at our new house and we have been moving, painting, and decorating all week. Once it is all in I will post pictures of our new and much improve house!

Happy Easter everyone!!

Bows Part 2

This weekend my mom and I tried once again to make bows. They are improving, not perfect, but definitely better!



My favorite one...

We have a house!!!

After months and months of looking and looking, pre-qualifying and going through the house hunt we decided a place to live. We also decided that since buying a home is a permanent thing... and dental school is not, renting was our best option. We looked at dozens of homes and finally found one that we liked, both agreed upon, and accepted dogs. We met with the owners, signed the papers and got the keys!! We decided to go to California this weekend to pick up some furniture pieces that my parents were giving us. So, here are the before pictures of the house (don't worry, we are painting the family room this week) and fun pictures from our trip to California!
