July 8, 2008 Nursery

Got the nursery painted!!!! The walls were already this gray blue. Our desk is to the left and I am standing in the doorway. This is the room that was added on to this house a few years ago. It is long and narrow just like it looks. We're doing polka dots as our theme. I was doing polka dots and stripes, but have not found stripes that I like here. So, right now it is polka-dots in cream and brown. If the baby is a girl, I will add a few pink dots.


Okay, the cream looks pink right now...but it's brown and CREAM.

The bulletin board is my next project, but after the baby is born. I will do pink ribbon if it's a girl, and don't have anything yet if it's a boy. I also got some big brown buttons to put at the cross-sections.

Other projects are the curtains and the rocking chair covers. I am getting the campus seamstress to do that for me and make a few pillows too. Fabric is chocolate brown and tan. I am excited to get these things done. =) As of tomorrow, 4 WEEKS til due date! Long time, but finally down to one month.

4th Of July!!!

The girls loved having their faces painted for the 4th. I got some face painting crayons from the Eaglets room and decided what better day than the 4th to bust them out. Are those the cutest little sisters or what!?!?
Dawn sent the girls these ADORABLE headbands and they are so excited to wear them! The little decorations on the table beside them are made with toilet paper tubes by Abby, Kaylee, Gabe, Caleb, Ann and myself. Aren't you proud of our crafting abilities? =)

So, we celebrated the 4th at Pamma and Grandpa's house with the Greenwich's and the Canadian Krymusa's. The kids had a blast playing together and we even had some sparklers and spinner fireworks that surprised us all!

Here is our family! Tried to give you all a belly shot, but it isn't angled enough. Oh well. Happy 4th everyone!

Kiddos having a blast acting CRAZY and SPAZZY!!!! It took a while to get Caleb in the picture, but Jeremy bribed him with cookies.

July 1, 2008 Canada Day

It's Canada Day! Yes, we're wishy washy and will celebrate any country as long as it means free cookout! =) Kaylee with her Canada flag tattoo from our neighbors. She did NOT like me putting it on her, so the water got under it and it stayed on for all of 15 minutes.










Magdalene is a true Canadian, but Abby didn't mind being Canadian for the day either. She didn't really appreciate Phil's rendition of "Oh, Canada" though. =)












We had a fun time in our front yard and the Krymusa's backyard having hot dogs and sodas. It was fun chat time and the kids loved roasting marshmallows.









Probably talking about golf...but who knows. Wes and Phil are being greatly entertained by Dan's stories. =) The baby is Josephine who is just now 2 months old. Kaylee LOVES holding her!
