Easter 2014

 We had a Easter party with everyone from Reese's command yesterday.  We had a big egg hunt, games, and food.  Estelle did really good egg hunting this year!  It was cold and a little windy as you can see in the picture but thankfully the downpour held off til after the hunt!

 Lane was quite focused.

 There was an egg throw competition.  Lane is intense and has a good arm :)

 Estelle and her very best friend Emmy.  This picture really shows off these two's personalities.  Oh my.

My two sweeties.  Next year we will have another!  Can't believe she'll be here soon!

Home Improvement Project

The previous owner of our house was a glass artist.  So she had made a backsplash for the kitchen that was removable and she took it with her.  So it left us with no backsplash which was fine, but I always thought the kitchen would look a lot more finished with something there.  So in January we went to the local home improvement store.  We picked out some mosaic tiles and ordered them, they said it would take about 3 weeks.  Well It is now April and the backsplash is finally complete.  No, not because Reese and I are procrastinators.  Because the company that the home improvement store ordered the tile from, "lost the order."  So we went to pick that up when it finally did come in in March.  But they were the wrong tiles... So we ordered them again. And finally last weekend we got them and put them up the same day!  Such is life in Kodiak.  Don't even ask me about the couch I ordered on March 1st.  Another "lost" order, which has delayed that too.  Thank the Lord we didn't buy a fixer upper!

BEFORE

 Well, I do love the new backsplash.  It was a super easy project (says the person who didn't do all the work), and it didn't cost too much.  Click on the picture to make it bigger and see it a little closer :)
