*{Under Construction}*

So my husband comes up with this great idea for a do-it yourself home improvement project, stained concrete. The whole idea sounded pretty easy and not ever having to worry about a spill on my carpet again...sign me up!! After reserching different techniques we figured out the color we would use, a neutral brown/beige. So we set off to destroy our house and rip up all of our carpet(we are just doing the living room & hallway), which was a project in itself! I stood back to look at the destruction and immediately thought "what the hell did we just do"??? I will update this weekend with pictures of the wreckage that we now call home. Wish us luck on our journey! Here's a picture of something similar, I figure that some throw rugs will give it a warm look!

Pumpkin Patch

We visited the pumpkin patch yesterday & had alot of fun. It was still so HOT out, made me wish for cooler weather! Halloween is just around the corner :-)

Toys for the Boys

We got our selves one of these puppies last weekend!















A Yamaha Rhino! The boys are thrilled to say the least! It was quite a splurge but this is definitely one thing that can provide alot of quality family time for all of us. It is currently having back seats installed that way we can all go out safely at the same time. There are sure to be more Rhino pics posted here soon

Choices, Choices??

I know, I know, it's been awhile! I am back on it ladies, promise! Between colds, vacations, work, weddings, baby showers it's been a little hectic!
My photo printer is on it's last leg & I have been shopping around for a new one. I would really love a Canon printer and I am thinking about this one or this one?? Does any one out there have one of these? I am not totally sold on the Canon so if there is anything else out there that you think is great please feel free to let me know! I appreciate the input :-)
