Before and After

We got this dresser from Luke's cousin Mandi and I decided to paint it and put it in the girls bedroom. I took Ava and Tess to the paint store and I let them pick the color. Below is the before and after pictures:

The color they picked is called Peacock Blue. And I spray painted the hardware white. This is my first furniture paint job and I think it turned out pretty fun! Perfect for the girls bedroom!

Kindergarten!

These pictures are from Ava's "meet the teacher" day. Her teacher's name is Mrs. Belnap, which is funny because Luke's kindergarten teacher's name was also Mrs. Belnap! And Grandma Jill's too! Anyway, Ava starts Kindergarten officially on Tuesday. I'll probably take more picture then, but just in case I miss it, then at least I've got these!

My Family - I Love Them!

We took these pictures last Friday night before going to a wedding reception up in Salt Lake.

I don't often remember to take family photos, so I'm really glad we had Phil snap these quick!

Gymcats

Gymcats is a gym that is super close to our house, in fact we can walk there. Well, on Thursdays and Fridays they have open gym for kids and so we took Ava and Tess. It cost $5 per kid but they played for almost and hour and half! It was totally worth it. Luke and I had fun watching them. Scroll down to pictures 10 - 15 and you'll see a funny sequence of Tess falling down. Don't worry, she wasn't hurt or anything.

I should put my kids in gymnastics lessons, especially Tessie. She's a little monkey!

Highland Splash Park

We've been here several times this summer because it's free and only about 10 minutes from our house. The girls have a lot of fun and the cool water really helps with the summer heat!
