Sorry for the long delay of posting...Our lives have been very busy between a family reunion, to building a closet, to raising a new puppy...all changes that we are pleased with I might add.
The weekend after we got Tyson we headed back to Sumner, IA for a family reunion. I should mention I didn't take any photos at the family reunion (sorry), but I did take some when I spent Friday afternoon
with my nieces! Two of which (twins) are here in town so I get to see them a lot, the other three is fe
w and far between. For those of you who know me and know how much I love spending time with family, this is very hard for me. I get so excited to go and see them, then when the weekend comes to an end I just want to cry because I don't know when the next time will come. Either way though Dan and I are
going to work on getting back there mor
e this fall, and it was a GREAT weekend with them, they are all amazing in their own ways :) Check out some of the photos of them playing together at home and then at a parade we went to.
This past weekend I decided before school starts up on the 30Th, and I start working two jobs that I wanted to get the closet I wanted built. In the 3rd bedroom the closet was like 3 feet wide (see photo) no joking here....
Well that was not near big enough for all my stuff. I will admit I have a lot of clothing (not near what I used to however), and the two closets I use in the house total about 6 feet, have 1 bar, and 1 shelf which for storage is terrible considering I can't reach them. The change is this, they (Dan and my Dad) tore down one wall and just expanded the length of the room, then built two small encasing walls, next we need to kilz and paint the inside before we hang the shelves so that's where the project ended late Sunday afternoon.
While the men were working on the closet my mom and I had our own little project....changing my hair color per request of Dan. He was looking through some of my old photos and thought I should try it out, since he had never actually seen me with brown hair before. Which I find this funny because when Dan and I met for the first time my hair was black on top with hot pink under, it was in my crazy college days....if you are wondering what prompted me to do that. Either way, Dan said, "the first time I met you, I thought you were crazy and way to hardcore for me." Mind you it was post season of soccer, and I was getting ready to go for a long run, and probably had just finished doing Tae Bo...so yeah I would say I was pretty hardcore...or not..either way he thought I was crazy. Part of me thinks he thought I was actually pretty cool but just didn't have the guts to really talk to me so he used my hair as an excuse. Take a look...this is how my hair was, and now is....
That should get you all caught up now, we have another busy weekend ahead of us. Dan has to work on Saturday, I have a bridal shower on Saturday Morning, and I'm also shooting candids at a wedding :) Sunday we have some friends coming into town and I think we are all planning on going to the fair. That all being said, tonight my goal is to get the closet walls ready to hang the shelves, then tomorrow go buy the shelving so that maybe we can get them hung Friday night "Date Night." Only a few weeks until school so I am trying to get all our home improvements done for this summer before then!
Check y'all later!
