Graduation Day!

Well, it finally came..  My little girl graduated from Preschool...  She is getting so big.. 

 Her graduation program was great.  We laughed A LOT.  Each graduate had to do a solo song/nursery rhyme.  They did great. 

 Jordan wanted to sing "Mary had a little lamb"  and do a little dance called "Step Step"...  She had been practicing for weeks.  Singing all day every day..  Like she was an opera singer..  No seriously..  She sang like an opera singer..  The boys were so sick of hearing her sing they would not go to her graduation.   When it was her turn to sing she was super shy and kept singing "Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little,lamb" over and over..  No other words escaped her mouth.  It was a riot.. :O)

 Oops..  Forgot to turn this picture..  my bad...

 Here she is with her teacher Mrs.Alesha...  She is the greatest...

 Walking in line to receive her diploma..

 Out door after shots..

 She was so happy to say that she is now in KINDERGARTEN...

 Oops,  forgot these too..  My bad again...

Taking a bow..  Thank you and please come again... :O)

New Updates to the Living Room...

Since I had so much time on my hands because I could not blog, I added a few things to the living room.  I started this make over last year..  Like June of 2010..  So yes, it has been slow going on this one..  I hope to have it complete this summer.  Or as close to complete as possible...  :O)  I started off by forcing persuading the hubs to visit a store I have been wanting to go to for like EVER... DownEast Basics...  LOVE IT....  I found a new sofa to put in the living room..  I have been eyeballing a Pottery Barn one but could not afford it.  I know I could have gone to IKEA and gotten theirs but it just is not that comfortable..   So I kept looking.  So off to DownEast Basics we went (dragging the hubs to whole way)..  I walked in and there she was..  Just waiting for me...  I sat on it for like 30 minutes before I even bought it so I know it is comfortable..  And trust me...  I have already taken a nap on it and it was heaven...  The best part... It was only...  WAIT FOR IT...  $650.  Yes you read that right...  And it is the Pottery Barn sofa I wanted....  :O)  And for half off...  Score!!  Doing a happy dance right now... 

 I got the pillows from a friend that got them with her Pottery Barn club chairs she got off of KSL...  They did not match her decor and she so lovingly gave them to me..  I forgot to take a close up of them so I will have to do that soon...

Next update was the new area rug I got at Lowe's...  I have been looking ALL OVER for the perfect rug for this room...  But I was not willing to pay over $150.  So the hunt went on..  I found this one that is 7'7'' x 9' I think at Lowe's.  Best part...  It was on clearance for $ 87.  HUGE SCORE and even bigger happy dance now....  :O)  I love the way it looks with the new sofa...  :O)  It does have a large floral pattern but it is still a neutral rug...  AND super soft on the tootsie... 

 I know, I need to slip cover those wing back chairs...  That will be happening hopefully this summer...  I have been pricing the fabric for it..  But we have to put a new roof on our house this weekend so slip covers will have to wait for awhile...

Here is a close up of the area rug...

I love it...  It is so pretty..  It did take some talking to the hubs to convince him of this purchase as did the sofa...  He thought we were fine with what we had...  Which was only 2 wing back chairs and a computer chair in this room..  Not going to work for us when we have family coming this fall to visit...  He was upset with me for a little bit..  But he came around and likes it now...  As always,  I am right and he is slow to realizing this...  Wish he would just grasp this concept now so we could move on to bigger and brighter things..  :O)

Well, thanks for stopping by...  And please have a safe and fun week...

Back up and running...

I mean blogging...  :O)  We thought we had gotten the computer working again and was able to use it for about a day then it crashed...  BIG TIME!! 

We decided to head out and check out some new computers just in case..  Found one we like and ended up getting it..  Luckily the old one still has 3 weeks left on the extended warranty so we will be taking it in to get fixed and that can be the kids computer...

So if they happen to TOUCH my NEW computer it is off with their hands...  J/K!!  (kind of)

So hopefully I will have a great post for you tomorrow...  I have several  that I want to do...  So much to catch up on...  :O) 

Until then ladies...  Have a great weekend...  :O)

I {HATE} computers... Sometimes...

Have you ever had one of those weeks?  You know the one..  Nothing is going quite right,  the sun does not shine AT ALL, and it seems to never stop raining or snowing..  Yeah, one of  those weeks...  That is what my life has been like for the last TWO weeks...  Is it ever going to end? 

My loving children did something to my computer a week and a half ago so now we can not get on the Internet...  We have had some one come and  take a look but they could not even figure out what was wrong.  We have a signal but can not connect...  Children are now band from ever touching my computer again.  So here I sit at the Library using their computer.  So no pics to add to this post..  Or any other for that matter..  The Hubs is at home trying to figure out how to fix it..

At least the sun is FINALLY shining..  I hope it lasts.  I am tired of overcast weather.  Utah is definitely NOT in a drought anymore..

This will be short because I would like to visit some of my favorite blogs...  Which makes me think of some good post spot lights for in the future.. 

Have a great week and keep your fingers crossed that we can get the computer back to normal..  :O)
