Before and After of the Fireplace

After a couple months of hard work our fireplace cabinets are done! Drew and Nathan put in a lot of time getting these babies done!

I can proudly say that I tiled most of the fireplace (alright, maybe half). woot!

What a way to end the summer!

We loaded up the kids and met Mike and Teawna in Parma at the Drive Inn. This is an excellent excuse to load up on bean dip and caramel corn . . . yummy! The double feature for the night was Harry Potter 7 part 2 and Cowboys and Aliens.

Don't ask me why Mike will never give me a real smile. He is so silly.

Here is what the kids looked like at the end of the 2nd movie. I admit to falling asleep also. My bedtime is usually 10pm not 1am.

Emma's 12!

I am now a mother of a 12 year old! Where has the time gone? Emma has turned into one beautiful young women. She is a thoughtful, smart, loving girl. She adds so much to our family and we wouldn't trade her for anything!

So for Emma's party we had some of her friends over for pizza, cake, a sock exchange and a movie.
