I'm a Tiger

So I hope you are all ready to be scared, because Blake is ready to scare people this Halloween.... Watch out it's scary. We went to the Zoo on Friday night for a little thing they had and Blake loves his costume this year!

Funny Moment




Okay so I just want to explain as this picture is a reenactment of an earlier moment, but as Nick and I were sitting talking about when/where/how to get started on the laminate floor. Blake comes walking into the room puts his hands on his hips with his little tool belt, and goggles on. And says 'So, what ya thinks' then just stood there and looked around all serious like. It was Hilarious, and just the medicine Nick and I were needing. We are getting so close to being done and so sick of working on this, but are taking pride that we've done this almost completely by ourselves, we've had a little help from my dad, and from Nick's dad on laying floor, other than that it's been us. We can't wait to show it off at Blake's birthday party!

The Laundry Room




This is what our laundry room looked like when we moved in before we've done all the work to it. This is probably the most updated room in the house. Doesn't really make much since, but it has been the most functional now, and we LOVE it!

Now here is a picture of what it looks like now, after we've; added cabinets, changed the floor, built a lift for the washer and dryer, and painted it.

What new

Okay so we are STILL working on our floors (I promise pictures will come), but we are getting so close the laundry room is all but finished, The front entry is as finished as it can be until we lay the laminate in the living room, that's the same with the kitchen and dinning room. We decided as we were going we needed to pain to get rid of the flat paint we have, so Blake's bathroom and the laundry room have fresh paint, and we are going to paint the giant wall in our living room. We're trying it as an accent wall, so we'll see how that goes. We are both loving it so far. Well I should say starting to love it, since the work is getting closer to over (with tile that is).

We have been to a pumpkin patch so I thought I'd share some pictures with ya... Here ya go.



It was a little cold but we had fun anyway!




Blake was a little overwhelmed but loved picking out his own pumpkin, once we get it decorated, I'll post picks of that too!




The kids sure thought the slides were awesome they spent most of their day going on the slides.



Loved the jumping Pillow at the pumpkin patch, it was really cool, I'd never seen anything like that, but all the kids loved it. We didn't get to jump though.




Then I just wanted to share to; the other day when leaving the house we say a double rainbow.. Thought it was cool, then in the car we saw a whole rainbow, but of course I didn't get a pic of that. Just wanted to share.





Hopefully very soon I'll be posting pics of our newly updated house, we are loving it more and more every day even if we are SOOOO tired.
