new kitchen floor

the old ugly floor

brady ripping off the ugliness.

after all the ugliness is gone.

the new floor. the pic doesn't do it justice,
but trust me its awesome.

lately we have been in the home repair mood, if you haven't already noticed. today we took on the task of replacing our kitchen floor. the people who lived here before us put in this AWFUL grayish linoleum. they did a terrible job and didn't even cover the entire floor. whatever. we have been unhappy with ever since we moved in, but didn't do anything until now. we ripped out the old 2 layers and put down a new fresh, better looking one. we love it and find ourselves in the kitchen staring at the floor. (no joke)

bull


so, ive been known not to be the most graceful sort of person. i run into things, drops things, knock things over, and fall down quite a bit. my friend brent has been diagnosed with the same symptoms; probably not as severe as myself, but in any case, we've been compared to bulls by our significant others. its a title i wear loud and proud and i hope brent does too. so here i am embracing my role as a "bull".

what the...

we found this treat in our backyard a couple days ago. i don't have anymore words for the things that like to haunt me. one thing i do know is that i'm over it.

new bath tub??


when we moved into this house the bath tub was
a bit undesirable. i chalked it up to it being old and
that the stains and "brownness" was due to its age.
gross i know, but it could live with it. i just didn't
want people seeing it so i always made sure the shower curtain
remained closed. well, one day last week i came home to this wonderful
surprise. brady had spent all day scrubbing and scrubbing
and i seriously thought that bath fitter had come and
put in a new shower/tub, but really brady had just
gave it it's beautiful sparkle. i LOVE it. and now i don't
have to worry about keeping the curtain closed all
the time. it's ok if someone sees it now. it looks so new.

camping in VA beach

matty in his tent


eating our awesome hobo dinners


brady, trying not to get any sun.

we went to VA beach this weekend with matty and jess to
have fun and do some camping. we hung out on the
beach the first day and got really burned so the
next day was short lived on the beach unfortunately, but
we had fun none-the-less.
