Bob the Builder


We went to a Root Beer Tasting party at some friends house and had a good time. I didn't know there were so many different kinds of root beers! We did a taste test of the normal one's which I did horrible at and then tasted some unique one's from all over the world. It was a fun night. These little mugs were funny. Here I am with Natalie Scollick and Robyn Vanderheyden.


Some preschool things I've been doing for Chelsea's co-op I'm a part of. For "D" week we did dog puppets and dinosaurs and fossils with dinosaurs. There are 6 kids in our preschool so each mom teaches for a week at a time. Over the course of the year we teach 6 times. We do it Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9:30-12. Chelsea likes it, but is sometimes naughty and doesn't sit still. She's just 3 so it's good experience for her for Sunbeams and for real preschool next year. I do the preschool with Shannon Wright, Adrienne Peterson, Laura Allred, Kim Asay and Lorane Willyerd. 


I have been working on redoing our bedroom. We got a king size bed which means we needed new bedding and it was a domino effect because then we needed new sheets, mattress pad, bed frame and a king size down comforter!!! Yikes. I painted the walls a blue color to match the light blue in the bedding. It's a grey aqua color. Then I made some coral euro pillows for a pop of color. We needed night stands so I found this Ikea hack on Pinterest and fell in love. I convinced Kyle to help me and got to work. It was a lot of work, but I love how they turned out. They were much cheaper than buying two similar night stands like these. So I bought those pine plain ones on the left then added trim, molding and a bigger top then painted them a white color to match our new white Ikea dressers. We gave our old dresser and night stand to Preston. I found new lamps at Walmart and voila they are done! Now to make a bench for the foot of the bed and decorate the walls. :)
