F is for Funny Girl; F is for Fixing up the House




F is for Funny Girl:

Ava has been super goofy this week, she's taken a liking to trying on people's glasses. We think she's a tad upset that she doesn't have any glasses of her own since both Mommy and Daddy wear glasses, as do Grandma and Granddad has reading glasses after getting his eyes fixed a couple of years ago. She also likes to wear glasses as a belt and thought it was so funny when Grandma told her "those aren't a belt" the other day. She likes to put glasses on her CareBear and other toys as well.

F is for Fixing up the House:

When we bought our house over 4 years ago we knew there was a lot of things we wanted and needed to do to it. The first thing we did was get rid of the horrible curtains that were hanging in the living room out to the patio, then the first big project we did was new counter tops and hardware in the kitchen, we also painted and had a dishwasher installed, that was year 1.

Throughout the years we have painted various rooms, and done small little things to make the house more of a home. This year we replaced all the carpet upstairs with Traffic Master Allure Plank Vinyl flooring. It looks great and really helps cut down on the amount of dust upstairs. Our next project we'd like to tackle are the floors downstairs. We would like to get rid of all the carpets and replace the old linoleum in the kitchen.

Another thing we would love to do is fix up the bathroom upstairs, there is a lot of empty space in there and we would love to add a double sink in there or at least replace the vanity that is in there now.

So much to do, now if only the lottery gods would pay attention to us!
