Tear it Down!

 I think I've mentioned before how much I HATED the super icky wallpaper that was up on the walls. Halloween night I packed up all the decorations & got to work peeling the first layer of wallpaper off.

It looked 100% better. Then it was time to take off the second layer.

Dean showed me how to wet down the walls and then I went to work.

I spent the better part of 5 hours peeling paper off of this tiny entryway. Look how yellow it was!

The end results were so worth it though. Now its ready to scrape the ceilings, remove that hideous light fixture, add can lights, rip up old flooring & add in new flooring, replace the trim & paint the door & walls. We have also discussed adding an arch to make the entryway look a little more finished. So much to do in such a tiny space but it will look amazing when we are done. 

I've been working on a few other projects & can't wait to share them with you tomorrow!

Halloweeners

In a galaxy far far away..............

Lived a princess & her adorable ewok.

 And right next door under the sea...........

lived a little mermaid.

They went trick-r-treating with an aristocrat & her flapper friend. I hear they had a howling good time. Hope you had a Happy Halloween too.

P.S. I made all the girls costumes (except Abbys) & had the best time doing it :)

Hello 5!

Guess who turned 5 yesterday?

So we headed over to the Andelin Family Farm Pumpkin Patch

For a little pumpkin picking.

& we visited these guys

We might just have a cowgirl in the making.

The girls had a blast holding the new kitten

Even though it was freezing outside (Omri was wearing pants, they just kept bunching up) I think it's safe to say we all had a fun time. My little Zoe girl I love you more than all the stars in the sky. We are all so glad you came to our family to fill it with such laughter, compassion & love. Hope 5 is the best year yet!

I Spy.........

 I spy,

with my little eye, 

a monkey in a tree....... 

& there she is!
