Fall Days

We are enjoying this weather, and hoping it lasts for weeks and weeks! The boys always love to be outside, but something about this weather makes me want to never come in. It must be thought that winter is not far off and then we will spend way too much time shut in doors!! Last week we headed to Clinton for the Apple & Pork Festival every year my aunt has a family weiner roast, usually during this festival so everyone can go there first. We love it, there is great food- real food, not just fair food, if you are local you should defienetly think about checking it out next year. They even had green ice cream cones, Rowan's favorite color!!! Rowan wanted his picture taken in front of this green tractor, but other than that, lately he has been boycotting the camera, so most of the pictures I get are when he's not looking or expecting it.

One A Day

After: Boys room curtains, it's a pretty bad picture, but you get thepoint- before it was a blanket hyanging up tp block the sunlight.

The floor Before: Now I would like to say that we did not cover the floor before painting the fridge, because we planned on replacing it soon, so this is a pic after the fridge was painted. So the black stuff all over the floor is paint, not dirt :)

After: but before fridge was put back, you can see Eli is already throwing stuff on it

Wordless Wednesday: Brothers

Taste of Summer

Summer is ending, which means soon the tomatoes will be gone. Poor Eli I don't know what he'll do when he runs to the garden to pick a nice fresh juicy tomato and finds nothing but straw!

Wordless Wednesday: Carrots

One A Day: Day 3 and 4

Day 3- Paint the fridge
Day 4- Rest from being up late painting the fridge!


Mike did more work with this than me, but I was up late, way later than usual so I'll still rest!
The fridge before was very old, yellowish, and had rust spots (which are usually covered by magnets), last year we got a new black stove and dishwasher and have been wanting to paint the fridge to match. We did it last night after the kids went to bed. We covered everything w/ paper and plastic since it is spray paint. Mike had to make something out of styrofoam to put over the fridge, since we had to have the doors open all night and we wanted to be able to leave the food in (rather than use a bunch of coolers), so he covered both sides and the seal worked great- the doors were open all night and no cold air leaked out so the food was fine!

It looks like a black fridge! We are replacing the floor anyway, so didn't cover it much.
