Fun times in July!

I went to St. George last week to see my friends
Kelly and Trevor! Since St. George is so blasted
hot we took the kids to the splash pad down there!
Camrynn had a ball running through the sprayers:) And here she is chillin' in the waterfall, so nice on a hot day!
Look at these cute kids:) They just had a
ball of course!! What a fun day!
And on Saturday when my Mom was down
we went to the July Jamboree here in Cedar.
It is a car show, craft boutique, fair thing on
Main Street and it is something we go to every year!
Camrynn enjoyed the bounce houses:)
Here's Camrynn with Grandma! Thanks Mom
for going with me! And for watching Camrynn
while I worked and helping me pack:)

New/Old End table

I am a big fan of the 'All Things Thrifty'
website and love how she can transform
old things into new thing for CHEAP!
Gotta love the cheap aspect:)
So I have been wanting a table for my
guest room for quite some time. I didn't want
to spend the money for a new one, so I kept my eyes
out for something I could transform!!
And after some time searching, I found
this beauty at Dean's in Delta of all places:)
I didn't get a before picture, this is after I had
primed it. But I love the design on it,
and the legs, and wire on the side! And it
was the perfect size I was looking for!
I choose a color that the 'All Things Thrifty'
girl uses all the time. I love the pop of color!
And since my guest room has alot of blues,
I thought it would go great without looking
overboard:) I am getting more color a little at
a time! Slowly....
After I glazed it (which I learned how to do
off the same website!) I think it turned
out PERFECTLY!!! I love love love it!
And not bad for a first time, right!?!
I did all this for the price of 1 can spray
paint of my choice, 1 can Kilz Primer, and
1 can glaze. My mom is the one who actually
bought the primer and glaze:)
And the table was a steal at $5!!!!

My Mom and I spent the weekend re-doing 3 shelfs also. And they turned out FAB too:)

4th of July

I love the 4th of July, it is my FAVORITE holiday:)
Every year we spend it in Delta, because Delta
ROCKS the 4th!! Sorry my pictures are
backwards, but this is how we spent the 4th...
Derby time!! Woot! Gotta love the derby:) And I got to go to the derby with a couple of my favorite people- Shanna and Alan!!! We had a lovely time, except the horrible people behind us who were total JERKS! Gene was in the pits of course, and next year he will be doing the Figure 8 races again! The park is another great thing about the 4th. Good food, good family, good friends and FUN! We love eating there, riding the rides, and buying the crafts:) Well, I love the crafts! Not like I bought anything though;) Camrynn and her candy! I wish there was more than salt water taffy though...
Here we are all at the parade! The parade
was great and the flyover was awesome
as always, too bad I didn't get pictures
of it though this year....
I LOVE THE 4TH!!!!
