We are Building a Home!



I think we are here to stay.  Denver has been great for us so far, our Business, my job, church and of course the beauty of "Gods Country, " so we are building a home.  

This is a link to check it out.  The link is not to the same neighborhood or price,  just floor plan and specks.  We are pretty excited!  We got to go to the design center and pick out the flooring, counters and cabinets ect.  two weeks ago. 

Our neighborhood is great.  We are 15 houses down and on the same side of the street as the elementary school and a block from the park.  

This is actually our third home to build but we get all excited every time we go thought the process.  We should be moving in at the middle of July.

1950 All Over Again!

Our Ward had a little party!
The kids loved dressing up with lipstick and in the clothes Amie skillfully make for them.  

Then Benjamin saw a cake that he just had to have.... we won it in the auction and everyone got a little buzz.  (of sugar)

Pay it forward ~ with Crafts

While looking at my sister-in-law's blog I couldn't help but get excited about this wonderful idea she had about paying it forward. It's a great way to spend some time thinking about someone else and getting those creative juices flowing for the benefit of others! So thanks Misty for the motivation and here's how it works:

The 1st three people (and only those three) to leave a comment on this post will receive at some point during the next few months a handmade gift from me. If you don't live nearby, leave me your address on my email, isonhouse@me.com

What your gift from me will be and when it will arrive is a total surprise! But here's the catch: you must participate as well!

After leaving your comment you MUST write up a “pay it forward” post on your own blog (or, do it in your neighborhood if you don’t have a blog) to keep the fun, creativity and good-works going. So, as you wait for your own gift, you must be making gifts for your three friends who commented! Lets share the love and have fun!

remember the snow?

Here is a small clip of good times in the snow.  Including tunnels snow balls tromping in quicksand snow and more.  Even some training passed down from my father to me and now to my son about a well placed snow ball onto a tree heavy with snow on the branches.  

My office closed down one Friday because of all the snow, so we did the only reasonable thing... find the biggest hill in Boulder and take Claire and Benjamin on their first sled ride.  

This was a great winter!
