Men in Trees!

Well, i knew one day it would happen, they'd begin to climb trees! Luckily they couldn't move once they got there and they smiled for photos. Here they are- my men in Trees!

Loving my new zoom!

Bit the bullet and bought a zoom lens that i'd been wanting. It's the Nikkor 80-200 f2.8. I couldn't be happier!!! Here are a few from Sunday while playing outside. I also have some of them in the tree outside at mom's house that i'll post later. They were really great shots of the boys but i didn't have time to do them all today. Just decided to crop a few throw them in a collage and post! So, i'll get those on here a bit later!

House update - we are painting! Praise God! Hopefully i'll have some photos of that by next week sometime! YEAH!

House has trim!!!!!!!!!

Here is an updated house photo. The trim is on the house now! Most of it anyway. I think one of those doghouses is still needing trim, but all in all, it's coming together. The front door is closed on this one but it isn't stained yet. I think it is my favorite part of the house-truly. It will be stained a very dark chocolate like the trim is. They are priming the inside - so i'm finishing up my color selection here. My dining room is going to be apple green! Then alot of the house has blues and chocolates in it. I love blue and chocolate!!!!!!! The floors will be a VERY dark hardwood - i mean dark! YEAH! I'm going to have to get one of those little robots to clean it. I hear they are amazing and practically clean the floors for you so you never have to sweep or mop as much. I LOVE that idea!!!!! Now, if they'll only, cook, clean the showers and tubs and pick up after my 3 men, i'd be in business!!!!!!!!! I'd pay alot for that robot!! Also, the brick is going to be cleaned in a week or so......AND that port-o-potty won't be there when we move in either!!!!!!!! Isn't it beautiful?????

Gotta run and get back to working! TTYL!

House Update!

Hey everybody! Alot has happened he house since my last post about the windows. Of course, if it hadn't been for the mess up on our windows, i'd be living in the house by now, but who's upset about that!!!! LOL! Here's a shot of the front of the house (at the wrong time of day for sunlight)! but as you will notice, the boys LOVE building a house because they get to play in the sand that is supposed to be for the mortar. I'm sure the brick layers came to work the next day and wondered why their sand had been spread everywhere and had little truck marks in it. But, the boys had a blast. Now, my story on how i had to get them home.... in these photos they are still somewhat clean. After about 15 minutes in the sand, they were so NASTY, i had to put them both in garbage bags from their feet to their armpits and buckle them in. They thought it was HILARIOUS and cool to be in a garbage bag! Now, that is what i should have gotton a photo of!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well, next time!

Who needs a Sky N Ty Fix?

I've heard that some people need a Skyler and Tyler FIX!!!!!!!!!! Well here's one. I desperately needed a photgraphy fix since being in the basement. I haven't taken ALOT of photos while we have been in Mom and Dad's basement - FORGIVE ME! Mainly, we are so busy with the house every weekend! It's beginning to work on my nerves! But, Chris and I got out in the yard with the boys on Sunday and i took some shots and made a little collage with them. It was absolutely beautiful on Sunday and the weather was PERFECT!!!!!!! I loved the color I got on these shots so much that it will be hanging in my NEW house soon! YEAH!

Tommorrow - Update and photos of the house (hopefully)
