Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween to everyone. It is so hard to believe that this will be Tessa's second halloween. Paxton and Tessa are both getting so big. This year Paxton wanted to be a turtle, and he is a really cute one. Tessa is a ladybug this year and so adorable. We will be going to grammys work and gradmas work and also to old town Pocatello and maybe the mall. It will be great fun. Here are some pictures of the cute kids.

New pictures

I finally got some new pictures of Paxton's trains and also pictures of the cabinets. I will be finishing up Paxton's room this week so once it is fully completed I will post the finished pictures. The cabinets are a spiced Hickory. Chad and I both really love the look of them and can not wait to see them with the counter tops. Here is a picture looking from the dining room into the kitchen.

Big number 1

Tessa just turned 1 on Oct 17th. We all had a great time. Grandma, Auntie Kris, Uncle Kevin and Auntie Jess, Grammy and Papa, and Rick, Sari, Harlee, and Trayton were all here to help us celebrate. Tessa's cake was fairies. Thanks everyone for coming and enjoying the time with us.
Yesterday Tessa had her one year appointment with the doctor. She is 22 lbs and is 29 1/2 inches long. She also had to get three shots, poor thing.
She is getting so big. She walks every where she can, jabbers all the time and just loves life.

House Update

I know it has been a while since I updated the pictures of the house. Sorry. It is coming along great. Yesterday the installers started to put the cabinets in and they look great. They will be finishing them today. The house is finally painted and I am still working on Paxton's room. My friend Amanda came up on Wednesday last week and helped me sponge the bottom part of his wall and then my mom came and helped me stamp the train all around his room. All I need to do know is fill in and outline the train and install a chair rail for the tracks. Sorry no picture of the train yet, but thanks Aunt Deb for the stamp. I don't know how you manage to find or make them. Here are pictures for all the paint colors.
Paxton's room is a pale gray sponged with polished silver and then the train is stamped in red. I will post an updated picture of his room later once I get a picture.
Most of the house is a mesa tumbleweed/light tan brown. This is a picture from the dining room looking into the living room.
This is Tessa's room and it is a light sage valley fog. Her room won't have anything stamped on the walls. I am just going to use decor.
