So a couple weeks ago my Mom and I went thrift store shopping. *and for those of you who haven't been over Javis and I only had two chairs at our dinning table _so we were in need of two more. So we stopped at this thrift store and they had two matching chairs... I looked at my Mom and said well I wouldn't pay more than 5dollars each... because I would need to fix them up. She agreed and went and asked how much they were. The lady said... 5dollars each!! And Bam I left with two chairs! They were both a lighter color of wood and had a pretty poor quality of fabric on them. I had to sand them down first then re stain them. I bought new padding for the seats and then put on new fabric that was more my style. They turned out very nice! The wood may look black in the pictures but it is just a dark brown. I love refinishing furniture. I have a big project after this. I have a rocking chair that is most likely over 100 years old. It needs all new upholstery. Which is quite a job. I bought the new upholstery fabric yesterday !! And now I need to find a book that will help me through this project. I know its pretty complicated but I know I can figure it out! I just love doing furniture! I must say I have a passion for it... it just helps me relax. No matter what happened that day .. all the stress just disappears as soon as I start working on my furniture.. : ) weird huh?

Brother & Sister



Just this past weekend Sarah and I were talking about our siblings and I realized that all I could do was brag and brag about my little brother and that got me thinking...I've been thinking how lucky I am to have him in my life! I know I only have one brother but I am lucky that we are so close and that we can talk about anything! I know that he will always be a big part of my life! I am so proud of everything that he does, I know that he makes good decisions and I know how hard that can be during high school!! He is just so hard working and Javis and I cant wait to start going to his football games !!
Jerry I want you to know that I love you very much <3
Also I am even luckier to have so many brother in-laws & sister in-laws!! It is so wonderful to have such a big family! & it is even better to have two families that get along so well! Javis & I are so blessed!!
Family Matters
So we just got back last night from Moscow! We had such a great time! We left Saturday morning and stayed till Monday! We got to spend time with baby Sienna and play with little Breck-a-million!! We all went to church on Sunday which was wonderful - I always enjoy Sundays a little more when we're with family : ) We were especially excited because we had a special surprise for Sarah. We know how hard she works and we wanted to let her know how thankful we are for all that she did to help us, how thankful we are that she took so much time and threw me a wonderful bridal party!! ... and so we got her a Maya wrap! Its the coolest thing, she can hold Sienna and have both hands free. The really cool thing about it also is that Josten can use it!! I hope that they enjoy it : ) We are so thankful for our family and the time that we get to spend with each and every one of them!

Just the beginning

Today we decided to set up our own Blog website- that way we can keep in touch with all of our family and friends!! We are trying to get all of our honeymoon pictures up and, as soon as we get all of our wedding photos we will put them up as well!! We know that everyone wants to see : )
We are so excited to be starting our own family-it is a wonderful thing to join two families together!! Our wedding was so beautiful and perfect. We can hardly believe that its over. We are officially husband and wife and we couldn't be happier! We have come so far- it has been over two years since we met at the lake. We were complete strangers and now we couldn't see our selves without each other! Our love is so strong- we have been through so much and it has only made us stronger! We are looking forward to our future together!!
