Cabinets Have Arrived!
I ordered my cabinets on February 4th. And Now I can actually see them, and I seriously am in LOVE with them! I took these pictures tonight and seriously they are super cute! So if anyone is in the market for new cabinets you should look up Lynn and Fashion Cabinets! So I hope you all like them as much as I do!

This is the Laundry room!

This is a close up of the upper cabinets above the washer and dryer! The knobs aren't all on yet because they are still on order. But they should be here tomorrow or Thursday!


This is the Desk and the bottom of the stairs!


This is in Thomas's gun vault, that I keep forgetting to take a picture of it, I will say that it looks pretty good! (I'll take the picture tomorrow! )


Here is the Wet Bar in the basement! It will have a mini fridge and a microwave.

This is the Guest Bathroom!


And Here is the best part! THE KITCHEN.........



Seriously LOVE IT!



This is where my cook-top will go, and those cute little side things by the drawers pull out and are spice racks! TOTALLY FUN! Straight above the cook-top is where the microwave will go!


This is where the dishwasher will be and then the sink right next to it!


This is the Master Bath!

And This Stinking cute wall is in the Master Bedroom! I am Totally in LOVE with this!


And last but not least, this is in the Guest Bedroom! I also LOVE this, I'm going to hang three super cute yellow mirror's above the bed on the gray wall!

And I got a phone call tonight from the guy who is doing our Granite Counter Tops and a job they had scheduled for tomorrow isn't ready yet, so they are installing our Counter Tops TOMORROW! HOLY SMOKES! I wasn't expecting that at all. They are actually coming back Friday to do our kitchen, but the rest of the house will be installed tomorrow! Things are seriously coming together super fast!

Getting Really Close!
The house has been moving right along.... I'm getting really excited about getting moved in! Thomas has been working night and day on our house, and I help out when there's something that I know how to do. Right now the house is painted inside, and out, and my cabinets are coming on Monday! I think this is the thing that I'm the most excited about! I have been waiting for about two months for them to be done! So I'll take some pictures and get those posted as soon as I see them!


The front porch, before the put soffit and fascia up.
This is before they put the soffit and fascia up.

The Garage's before they were even painted.

The back side of our house, right after they finished the stucco. I think it turned out really good!

Thomas built this totally cute railing for our house! I seriously am in love with it, the picture doesn't really give it justice. Seriously the color of the powder coat is awesome! You will just have to come see how cute it is when we move in!

This is at the bottom of our stairs in the basement!

This is the railing up stairs! Thomas and his Dad actually built the newel post as well and they look so cute too! My cabinets are going to be the same color as the newel post, along with accents of white!

This is What the house looks like now, all painted, and with all the soffit and fascia on! Cute!

Here is the tile in the master bath room! I seriously am in LOVE with it! I think it turned out great!

This is the tile in the guest bathroom! If you ever come stay you can shower in this!

House Update!
So I know it's been way to long since I've updated, but the only thing we have been doing is building our new house! Which I think is going to turn out really nice! The house is moving right along. I don't see Thomas much, because he seriously is putting everything he has into this house, which I'm so grateful for, he knows how to do all sorts of stuff, which is totally awesome!
Every time I go to the house Thomas calls me the "GC" aka General Contractor, he claims that I show up, shout orders, and then leave... which is NOT true! We have really enjoyed building a house so far. So here are some pictures of the outside. They are insulating today and hanging sheetrock on Wednesday! So it's going to look a lot different in the next few days.



Our garage's!

Front of the house, you can't really see my super cute front door! I LOVE IT!

In the last few month....
Well a lot of you probably already know, but for those of you who don't, and for those of you who want to see some picture's I have finally sat down to give you all an update of what's been going on in our lives.

Thomas and his dad drew out a very important archery tag in the Paunsaugunt unit. It is a little town, well I'm not really sure if you would call it a town, but it about 15 minutes from Bryce Canyon. Apparently this is or was a really big deal. So we packed up for nine days so they could shoot their deer. Well Thomas ended up shooting one on the very last day we were there, and his dad never got one. I can't believed I survived nine days in a camper... who would have thought!

Tootsie loved camping! She was so dirty, but loved every minute of it!

Here we are at Bryce Canyon! It was pretty cool. I had never been there before!

Thomas's Dad, Thomas and his Grandpa with the deer Thomas shot right between the eyes. He was so proud of himself!

Thomas and the Deer.

Shortly after we got back from hunting. We started building our house! We have had a few bumps in the road, but that is expected when you are building it yourselves I guess. We are super excited! It's going to be in Riverton, about 1.5 miles from where we live now. We feel very blessed and thankful for the opportunity we have to build a home right now. Here are a few pictures. They have started framing it now, I just haven't taken any pictures of that yet, because we fired our first framer, and the new one starts on Monday!

The hole half way dug.

Basement walls!

Thomas, his dad, and uncle did the underground plumbing. I would like to say a big THANK YOU to Cory, and Clay for helping us do this!
Thomas, his dad, Ryan, and our neighbor poured our basement floor last saturday. It was raining that day, so I didn't go get any pictures, but a huge THANKS to them as well!

Tim McGraw
Last night we went to Tim McGraw and Lady Antebellum with some of our good friends Brandon and Kylee. This was the fourth time I have seen Tim, I had seen him at the Blackfoot Fair years ago, then I went to his and Faith Hill's concert twice here in Salt Lake. This concert was at USANA, we got seats this time rather than the grass, and they turned out being really good seats, I don't think I'll ever go to another concert out there on the grass!


The man himself Tim!


Here we are with our $3.75 bottle of coke, what a freaking rip, I really wanted water, but they ran out! Mind you this was before the concert even started... Who Does That?

These are our good friends Brandon and Kylee. It seriously was a really good concert!

Happy Mother's Day!
I thought I would write a little about my wonderful Mom! I am very grateful for all that my mom has done for me in my life. She has always been there for me through thick and thin, even when I was a brat. I totally appreciate her for all the love and support she has given me. She truly is the most giving person I have ever known. She has taught me how to do the best I can in everything I do, how to be caring for others, to stand up for what I believe in, and many other things. Thanks for all you do mom you're the best! Happy Mother's Day to You! I love you more than you know!

We're Still ALIVE!
So I know I haven't posted since like November.. So this is going to be quite the post.. If you continue reading you will find odds and ends of what we have been up to.... I haven't been taking any pictures lately so this is what you get!


Thomas has been super busy. He got a new job at EIMCO, which is a place that designs water treatment plant. He is loving it. He is doing what he is earning his degree in so he is really enjoying it. We are so blessed for him to be able to find a good job, and we are so grateful!

Thomas has also been working really hard on this wonderful piece.. which they call a Moonbuggy. It's his senior design project, and it consumes most... well I should say ALL of his free time. Him and his group are going to Alabama in April to compete, and hopefully they will win.

Ali got married. I am so happy for her! It was also so much fun seeing all of my friends!


Thomas turned 24! I got him an ice cream cake with an ice fisherman on it... totally up his alley!
