Maintaining like a boss!!!

It's been a year-ish since I reached my goal of 125 ish pounds. As of today I am 122 and I hover between 121 and 123 lately. I can't believe I've done it. PS that's a bathing suit trying on picture. I don't do tank tops in real life.

Utah lately

Another furniture transformation!!!

This has taken me a while because I had to wait on that lazy bag of bones, Jeebs. He's always on that computer trying to find a new job, do contract work Yada Yada Yada. Anyway! He finally made some time to finish my shelf for me!!! I love it! I'm not particularly fond of where it is in my house, but that is the only place for it. So without further ado....

Before...

AFTER...with my crazy kids.

I'm still trying to figure out how to style it and obviously there will be something hung on the wall over it, but for right now, it is what it is. (I despise when people say that)

And the mooks...

3 birthdays in one month is too much, but we can't forget the mooks. This girl is such a sweet little twerp. She loved her birthday- I guess. We had to keep reminding her it was her day. 

This was the day after her birthday. She was rocking all of her birthday gear on our walk to the river. Have I mentioned I love the trails here? 

Ezra had his birthday!!

Ezra was so ridiculously excited about his birthday. He's been counting down the days for at least 2 weeks and beyond. By counting down I mean he would go through the days one by one until he got to his birthday and shout and jump for joy. We tried to let him have his presents spread out over the day so at least his siblings were involved, but he wouldn't have to wait for everything until they came home. He was most excited about his water balloons, I think. They cost me less than $2.

Another thing to remember...matches actually work okay as candles. I am lame. Hooray for another kid starting kindergarten at home! My little break is over.

This was Mother's Day

This is what my mom dealt with from me. I guess it's only fair. #sundayfun 

How I celebrate

I loved my birthday with my kids and Jeebs. I had a big burger and fries. Then finished off with a little cookie. I couldn't have asked for better company! These loud and crazy children. 

We have a front yard!

Shout hooray!!! Jeebs found someone selling sod for cheap down the road and we pounced on it. Several hours, sunburns and lots of dirt later we have a front yard. Behold!
