My little girl turned 3 this year!! Can you even believe it. I know i can't. She wanted a friend party this year so i said what the heck i'll give it a go. It was princess themed cause that's what she is into right now. They wore their dresses and we found tons of princess dress up stuff to make little goodie bags for the girls. My niece Leslie helped them get their make up on and we did nails and Dan made a balloon arch for them to take pics under. It was a lot of fun. Her two cousins Danica and Olivia came and played with her. It was a great time.

Painting



So Dan and I have started painting the rooms. We took on the biggest project first which was the two front rooms. We decided on a green color for both. The living room color is just a little darker though because its a lighter room. It took us literally 12 hours to get everything moved around, covered, painted (both coats) and everything put back together again. We also did house cleaning, Dan went out with the Elders and dinner at Grandma Jones' house in that time to so it was a busy day. Not to mention the fact that we have three small kids running around. But its done and it looks great. The pics are a little darker than what it looks like in real life but its still a good representation. The first one is the dining room and the second is the living room. We still have to paint the ceilings a white white white but we got the primer on them and we have to get the crown molding back up in the living room before all is said and done.
