We finished up our time in Washington!! We squeezed in a few more things before we left ...

Then some last min visits to some friends, and the rest of the projects!!

Here are the last of the befores and afters...

Family room After:



Yep... These boys went crazy and killed themselves everyday. I think both Grandpa and Adam will be glad to be done with projects. Although, Grandpa did just start on his bathroom... maybe he's not done ;) And for that matter, neither are we! We'll get to Pocatelo and start right on our addition and bathroom! Ug. Too much rennovation for me. Oh, well. The after is what is worth it for me!!
Goodbye Washington, for now!!

Seattle Visit and (of course) More Projects!

A couple weekends ago we got to travel up to Seattle to visit Matt and Jeralyn Brewer! It was fun to get to go spend a fun filled day with them. We visited a park right on the edge of the Puget Sound where you could cross a bridge over some railroad tracks and walk along a beach. William was scared of the very loud, fast, and close trains. He clinged to Daddy for dear life :)



Cousin Grant!

Enjoying a view of the Space Needle . . .

. . .From the carseat. (William got quite upset whenever we drove through tunnels, lol)

Then we went to the Seattle Temple and walked around the grounds.
This is us outside the distribution center with cousin Leah.

Us walking around the grounds.




Then we got to go on a favorite walk of theirs near the University of Washington.

And now for some more project pictures!
Big Bedroom before:

(sorry for the mess of rolled up carpet and everything... that makes it look worse!!)

After:


hmm... You can't tell the difference in the carpet at all, but it's very different, believe me. Anyway, everything is turning out nice, and the bathroom and laundry room are on their way now. Our time is running short, we've only got a week and a half left here!! We'll see what we can get done in that time.
