Parade of Homes

What a busy month! The Southeast Idaho Parade of Homes was last weekend and it was a huge success! Now let's all pray the home sells fast! Here are a few pictures. I think Heath did a wonderful job with this house, and given the interest that has been generated, it should sell fairly quickly. Yeah!
If you know anyone interested in moving to Inkom, let us know!

Look at this handsome builder!
This is the front entry. The door is solid knotty alder adorned with a beautiful deer engraving! This was custom made for this house and it absolutely gorgeous!
Of course I could not pass up the opportunity to try to boost my Uppercase Living business so I did a few custom things myself! This particular expression is in the living room.
Laundry room: The comments about this one were very creative! Some even attempted to remove their own "drawers!"
Dining room.

Thank you Aunt Melanie

Aunt Melanie gave Kenidee a handmade nightgown for her birthday and all I can say is, "We need more!" Kenidee will not go to bed without wearing her "Princess Nightgown." Needless to say, I need to wash it sometime! Kenidee loves it! Thank you Aunt Melanie!

On this particular night Kenidee had talked Dad into dancing with her at the "Princess Ball." I took lots of pictures of Kenidee and her "Prince" dancing, but Heath threatened me within an inch of my life if I ever posted the pictures of him on here dancing. I complied, but told him that I was not going to delete them. Hint, Hint! :-) LOL (One can never have too much blackmail arsenal!)

My little princess showing off her dance moves! (Uncle Kevin, your time is coming soon! :-) LOL)


She really wants to take dance lessons! I guess she's old enough now.

Thanks Mel and I'll be contacting you soon to get a few more nightgowns!

Happy Birthday Kenidee!

Ok...so Kenidee's birthday was more than a month ago, but my motto right now is "Better late than NEVER!"

We had a lot of fun! We decided to have a princess party! We invited lots of friends to meet us at the park dressed in their favorite princess costumes. We jumped on the jumper, had snacks, cake and ice cream and opened presents. I tried not to make it a big deal, but it just so happened that that is exactly what happened. I didn't know it, but a group of people here in Pocatello get together every Sunday evening at Lower Ross Park and pretend to be knights. They wear suits of armor and practice fencing. It is actually sort of neat. Well guess what?!?? Kenidee's party coincided with the knights! A friend of mine knew one of them and asked them if they would join our party for a few minutes! It was great! Kenidee actually got to have "Real Knight" join her party!

Kenidee and her "Knights in Shining Armor!" (Doesn't the bigger one sort of look like Shrek? NO, my princess is not FIONA! Although, sometimes at night if she's really tired she does act like an oger!)
Only some of the party guests. Others were a bit apprehensive about the knights! LOL!
No, the sword was not sharp! Doesn't she look so happy?!?
Fun on the jumper!
Our little princess eating her favorite! Chocolate Cake and Ice Cream!

"This is my song!"

I am a huge country music fan and therefore that is all my kiddos listen to while making the long trip into town from our house. Usually the music is turned down fairly low so that I can carry on conversations with the kids a little easier. If the music is too loud, Kenidee hollers, "It's too loud! Turn it down!" Well, the other day, while driving into town I hear, "Mom, this is my song! Turn it up!" It was the cutest thing! I then hear, "Doo, oooooo, oooooo, ooooo, ooooooooo!" (singing) She was listening to Sugarland's "All I Want To Do!" I loved it! I've added it to my playlist if you want to listen to it! Some of you that know Kenidee well might even be able to picture her singing! The things our kids do!

In February I became an Uppercase Living Demonstrator and absolutely LOVE it! For those of you who don't know what Uppercase Living is, it is a wonderful home decor product. I have had so much fun in the last few months decorating our house and helping others to do the same!

Heath and I built our house and moved in a little over two years ago and I had been spending countless dollars on home decor magazines trying to find just the right look. In many of the magazines I found great pictures where it looked as if the owner paid someone to paint phrases and pictures on the walls. I can only imagine how expensive that could get! I was not going to pay someone to paint those phrases on my walls, but I knew I couldn't do it myself! What was I going to do? When I came across Uppercase Living my dilemma was solved!

Here are a few pictures of my house!

Framed "Love" and "Life" around the fireplace in our living room.

Custom made Psalms 118:24. I love this Bible verse! It says so much!

This is in our master bathroom.

Picture window valance one.

Picture window valance two.

Picture window valance three.

All three valances in our living room. This was Heath's creation. I think he did a great job!
