In need of a little color/change

I've been feeling like my house is very blah lately and in need of some color! Here are a few pictures of what I've been up to. With a little birthday money I of course headed over to Ross and found these amazing trivets that I love!

Next up...Goodwill. I found this chair (I may have a slight obsession with chairs. I bought three that day.) A little spray paint and denatured alcohol later, and I'm in love.This has been on my wall for a while. It needed a little help though. I ripped of the black backing and modge podge some paper on the background. I still need to make little tags to go under each picture, but it looks a lot better.

Then I refinished this table I already had in my entry way. Spray painted a few frames and made some flower balls to go on the candle sticks. I'm wanting to paint the candle sticks I just can't decide on what color yet.

A closer picture of the frames.

I also finally painted the office and made a new board for the kids backpacks and jackets.


And last I hung Justin's guitars on the wall. Maybe next I could organize that book shelf?!

Just some cute pictures.

After a long day of running errands (Justin was on the hunt for an old rotary dial phone. Don't ask.) We had a nice late lunch at Fuddruckers.

I love these boys! Of course Riley wasn't with us. She has friends that are more important. :)
Oh...there she is. Having dinner at Texas Roadhouse after the kids winter sing.


Flash back to Halloween....

We had a great Oct. after my sister weekend it was time to start celebrating Halloween. My friend and I took these three cuties to a pumpkin patch. We went for a hayride, saw some animals, jump in a bounce house and then they each got to pick out their own pumpkin on our way out.


Next it was to my friends neighborhood for a party. The kids had fun.


Here are the kids along with a friend getting ready to go out trick-or-treating.
This picture is from our ward party. After we got done cleaning up we look over and all these cute kids are sitting on the curb eating as much candy as fast as they could.
Halloween is definantly not my favorite holiday, but we has fun none the less.
