Extreme Makeover Home Edition - Painting only

While the EMHE crew was in Lincoln this week redoing an entire 500, 000 dollar house, dad, Annie, Casey, Craig, Becca, and Mike were painting: 3 bedrooms, 3 closets, the hallway, stairwell, living room, and dining room. Which each room needed primed, and two coats of paint. Talk about massive painters! I just kept moving away from the rooms (due to fumes) and kept the food coming (more for myself than them!) Thanks again for all your help!!

We are almost finished! A hardwood floor repair guy is suppose to be coming tonight to give us the low down on repairing the floor in two rooms and the sanders/refinishers will be here 11/7. Everyone will be moving things upstairs while I am at the hospital with #2:) Thanks again for everyone helping out...

*Yes Kenner did help me take the wallpaper down. if you don't want your wallpaper removed while he is around, don't give him a wet washcloth, spatula and free reign to the wallpaper!

look paint! and no shaggy carpet!

oops picture for the look DRYWALL

Look DRYWALL

Look drywall from sitting at the bottom of the stairs!!! It is the simple things in life, like drywall, that keep a prego lady happy and an extremely busy husband motivated to keep working.

One Month and counting

Hello everyone - It is official that we have less than one month until baby #2 comes into the world and poor Casey has been working his rear end off in order to get us into the upstairs before then (as we don't have room for two pack-n-plays in our make shift bedroom).
The pictures in this section show how we no longer have a chimney in our house (which meant knocking out the chimney that went through the kitchen...Kenner will have fun with this) so that Casey can run the plumbing for our bathroom and our central vac plumbing down to the basement. The other picture is of the bricks that were taken out last night from the part of the chimney in the kitchen. Casey did the demo and I moved the bricks...yes all of them and 8.5 months pregnant. That is why I am being a lazy bumm today and can't move my right leg due to a fun little pain. I will be good...because I have a student teacher who will be my sub...but she won't be able to graduate unless she finishes her student teaching (her last day is Halloween). I at least have to make it that long. If everything goes as planned, 11/10 will be the big day. Have a great week!

My first trip to the zoo

I had a great time at the zoo with my friends from Central City, the Broman Bunch. I didn't like the petting zoo with the goats...they scared me too much!

Random pictures of Mister:)

These are pictures of Kenner from July til now...just hanging out at home with his new car.

Momma's first craft fair

Well my first time venturing out selling our honey and a couple things I made wasn't much of a success, but a good experience. I will be doing the Hebron Craft Fair and hopefully we will be more successful. Thanks to Aunt Jane for her tips!

Reminders for Aunt Becca as she ventures on into the real world!

Make sure to take time to have fun...especially riding the horses.

Don't forget to brush your teeth

Take a relaxing bath (don't forget the light up ducks!)

Get a good night's sleep.

I'm a BIG helper...

with my dad in his garage

with my mom and helping her sew. The thread is really fun to unravel.




















I have to make sure to wear my safety goggles when helping my dad with drywall!
