Swimming
Grandpa with Kaia & Blake
My sister-in-law Brooke met me down in Az and we did a little home make-over for my parents. They gave us a budget and we shopped, decorated, and rearranged all week. My mom was a pretty good sport as we tore apart her house. We had a blast!
The kids at a furniture store
Another store- we ended up getting this table
Poor Blake trapped at yet another furniture store
My AC went out in downtown Arizona! Not good.. We got smoothies. The kids were troopers all week.
We forgot to take before pictures but here's what we did on top of the cabinets
We did a photo wall
Finally hung their 2008 Christmas gift of Hawaii temple & added a console table
Decorative cork board for cards, announcements, etc..
New couches!
The new table

Curtains (we haven't cleaned our messes up yet)

It was so fun shopping and decorating all week! Kicking ourselves that we didn't take before pics because the difference is a 180! It was kinda crazy tearing apart the house, we probably should have taken it a little slower (for my mom's sake) but, oh the fun we had ;) Thanks mom and dad!
