New Bathroom Vanity!!!

This past Saturday we finally got a vanity for our mater Bathroom. Finally as in, it's been 2.5 yrs since we've been moved into our bedroom, and had only a toilet in our master bathroom. We ordered the vanity a few weeks ago, and D surprised us on Sat with it done, and wanting to install. We (I) was sssoo excited! As soon as it was done, I filled it up! Now I can curl my hair again!

Ist vacations in oregon

Back in the middle of August we went down to Oregon with Andrew. That time, we stayed in a yurt. Here are some pics of it. Andrew finally brought his camera in the house, so I will be posting a few things that we did throughout the summer.

In the yurt- the girls slept on the floor.

2nd vactation in Oregon

The girls and I just came back today from visiting Andrew in Oregon. We had a lot of fun, and a nice relaxing time! We stayed in the same resort as we did the frist time, but this time in a cabin. The cabin had one bedroom that slept 5, a bathroom, and a great room (maybe the size of the kids room) that had a small kitchen, table and chairs, and aa couch. It was quite cozy, and despite it's size, we ad a lot of room, and didn't feel crowded. We swam in the pool, goofed around, read books, and watched TV. Bed time was generally early since Andrew would fall asleep by 9:30 anyway. I would either read (Arguing with Idiots- Glenn Beck) of do my Sudoku puzzle book. I took my sewing machine with me, but only ended up sewing one day. I made the girls slippers. They turned out to be quite slippery on the wooden floor of the cabin, so they spent some time "skating" too. On our last full day there, I treated the girls to ice cream- since that's what they remembered from when we stayed there in the summer. They even remembered where to find them in the store! Here are a few pics from the trip.
