.before and after.


The boys "additional" picture day? I can't remember what they call it exactly, but they've already had their school pictures. They were just doing them again with the fancy, gag me waterfall background. I remembered and didn't tell them what to wear or to do their hair. This is what they look like on a regular basis. That green hoodie TJ is wearing has grown right onto his body. I have to steal and hide it from him or he'd wear it every.single.day...AND to bed! I took a picture of the picture and sent them back so I didn't owe the $35!

I've had fun shopping for apps for my phone. This is a free photography one that adds fun filters and borders to the pictures.

I tried my hand at painting furniture for the first time. Mom gave me her sofa table awhile ago. I spray primed it, painted it and stained it. No sanding and easy peasy!

I also go some upholstery fabric and stretched it onto a few canvases for some cheap wall art. I put 3 of the matching fabric over the fireplace.

Ha so what's the last picture about? Fishing? Your front room is really coming together. I have some questions for ya about all of that. Love the waterfall background. Remember one year Katie got her school pictures with like the 80's grid/lasers in the background? Too bad they don't have that option. And I do love the boys just how they are....so handsome!
