Just an Idea

Okay so tonight I came out to the farm to bring Sean some supper. Walking around the new house this crazy idea came to my head. All this left over materials here for example flooring, wood etc... I should build Miss Grace a Barbie house for her birthday. Come on girls you all know you played barbies when you were younger and I am sure one of your friends had an awesome barbie house. I remember Leslies it kicked butt. So anyways maybe I want to do this cause I would of loved to have one when I was a kid. I had a trillion barbies that is for sure, youngest daughter I got everything I pretty much wanted. But I am seriously thinking I want to do this and used some leftover material from building the new house. So throw some ideas at me so I can get moving on this.

House Updates

Garage doors on and just rock work, driveway and gutters.

The house is really coming along just a few short weeks left. The plumbers need to come in and do their thing. Then the electrician needs to finish up his things. Carpet gets put in the 10th of August. Then it will be about GO time!! We are so excited to get back to the farm. Just in time for school to start let me add!!
(Val no more giving me grief now I posted Ha Ha)

Cheer Camp


Sorry these pics are a little dark. Miss Grace at cheer camp Val has been awesome and has been taking her every Tuesday and Thursday for the last month or so. Thanks Val so much for doing that for her.

Hunter is so good with Grace. He is always catering to her and making sure she has anything and everything she may need.










We can not wait to get back out to the farm. We never hear "I'm bored what can we do" As you can see from the pics they get pretty creative when we are at the farm. Hunter took a chain hooked it up to the riding lawn mower then connected it to the go cart. That entertained them for hours. Curious how many times they can do this without getting hurt. Austin wiped out a few times but never got hurt.
Just a few short weeks and we will be living out there once again.

Heath and Miss Grace
This picture is not very clear but was taken from my cell phone. Grace just adores him and I don't think Heath wants to believe it but she has him wrapped around her little finger.

Buddys

Brandi came for the weekend and stayed with us. Grace loved having her here and even spent the night on the couch with her Saturday night. We had a blast catchin up with each other. Granted she only lives an hour away but I hadn't seen her in a month. We already miss you Brandi and can't wait for you to come stay again.

House Updates

The outside has been pushed to the side so we could get going on the inside.
I love the color and I believe we are pretty close to the red of the old farm house that burned down.






Miss Graces room the pink is a bit bright but will look good with the pink and brown quilt I got her. She will have white bedroom furniture


On the left is a short wall that seperates our bedroom to my vanity. On the right would be my walk in closet and straight ahead is my bathroom




I love the colors of our bedroom!! I got the duvet cover and throw pillows at bed bath & beyond. It is mainly white with silver and brown. We will be getting ebony colored furniture.



Bonus room above the garage. Awesome place to curl up and watch a movie on a rainy or snowy day.


Sean painting in the loft





View from the loft of the dining room. Plastic still covers the timbers.


view from loft



Staircase will go here. Kitchen is to the right but still has not been painted.


Logan and Hunters room. They will have a hunting lodge theme with loft beds.




Austins bedroom is going to have a rodeo theme with western bedding and log furniture.
