Hey guys! So I know two posts in two days?! I'm on a roll!! Lol! But we had so many exciting things happen yesterday and I got to vlog it all!!

First Austin had his first real day of Preschool! He had so much fun and loved every minute of it!

Second we got a new car! We have been talking for awhile about buying a car for me instead of the Acadia! To save money in pretty much every aspect! So Ethan yesterday spent the day working and finding us the perfect car! We decided on the Toyota Camry! It's a black '09 and I am in love!

Third Nevaeh started gymnastics! She got a new leotard this weekend and would NOT let us take it off of her! She had SO much fun! I can't wait for her to do more!

First Panic Attack?!

2012-09-09T21:29:00.001-07:00

I am not much for being a deep thinker. I am pretty much a you get what you get kind of girl. Everyone knows what I'm thinking I wear my emotions on my sleeves for the most part...

Saturday I got to hangout with my parents and go car shopping with them! They were able to negotiate a good deal. Well my Dad did anyways. My mom and I get really uncomfortable once they start talking hard numbers. My Dad is a natural born salesman. He can talk anyone into getting what he wants for the deal. My mom and I on the other hand don't even like to watch. So while we sat in the waiting room my Dad got a new car. They ended up getting the new Camry Hybrid. 41 miles to the gallon! What?!

Anyways, after we got done we all decided to go out for dinner. My mom and I weren't hungry so we went to The Buckle while my Dad and Ethan went to a Burger place. (We of course got a babysitter for the night, we are very lucky we have a babysitter that we trust very much!) Well we all decided after we ate and shopped that we should go to the new Batman movie! I am all for Christian Bale! I am a huge fan of his! (Newsies=Love) Anyways so we went to Batman! There wasn't very many people in the theatre that night cause it has been out for awhile and I feel like a lot of people have seen it by now!

I was sitting there enjoying the movie, it was so great and I was so into it! Well all of a sudden fear completely came over me.. I don't know what triggered it, but I thought of all those people in Colorado on the premiere night of this EXACT same movie. They were all sitting there watching the movie suspecting nothing was going to happen. Just enjoying a movie that everyone was so pumped up and excited about. I completely had a mini panic attack. My heart was racing, I could barley breathe, I just had to get up and make my way to the restroom so I could think and pray for peace. I finally made my way back to the movie and sat on the end of the isle for a bit so I could scope out the crowd. (I'm a creep like that). I finally got up and sat back down in my seat. For awhile it took me awhile to finally focus back on the movie but once I did I finally calmed down.

I wanted to share that just because I just want everyone to think and be thankful that they are alive and well. Be thankful that you get to breathe and have life. Focus on things that matter. Be happy and make the best out of your life!

Have a great week everyone!!

Peace.

All these people make my life Oh SO happy and full of love!! :)

Peace.

Nevaeh's New Room! Redecorated!

2012-06-23T11:10:00.001-07:00

So about a month ago I got the itch to redecorate Nevaeh's room! I was looking for ideas on Pinterest like a CRAZY woman. I knew I wanted her room to be a dark purple with white accents. I have also seen a lot of those wall stickers that I really liked! I loved the branch ones that were white! So I googled my little heart out and finally found a website http://www.7decals.com/Default.asp that wasn't too expensive. I could not believe some of the prices! Like $100+ for a wall decal! What?! But I bought the tree for about 40 some dollars. I also got to choose the color I wanted and what side of the wall I wanted the branch coming from! But first we had to find the right paint color! Purple!

Considering the colors that her room was before, we had to do like three coats of paint. Ethan did one whole coat, then just half a coat on the top part, then one whole coat again. It was a little work but we did it! I also told Eth that I wanted all her trim to be white! Which let me tell you was a pain in the butt! But he took all the trim off the walls and then we painted it down stairs with a little brush! But it took probably about 3 coats! grr. But it was worth it!

Next was the sticker application! Ufta that was hard and scary! I am always nervous when doing those that it's gonna bubble up or not stick well. But the sticker we got did amazing!

Peeling it off!

The sticker ALL finished!

This was so time consuming! I'm glad Rachel was over to help because we had to do all those little green hearts separately! So it took a long time! But it turned out so perfectly! I couldn't be more happy!

After we got all the trim done we needed to finish the rest. I knew I didn't want her to be in her crib anymore. So Ethan sprayed painted the toddler bed white so it could match her room! Also Rachel suggested that we paint Nevaeh's letters on her wall green to match the birds & hearts! We did and it was so perfect! So her room is all purple with white & green accents! We also sold her dresser and bought a new white one! I'm so proud of how beautiful her room came out!

So my next decorating job will be Austin's room! Stayed tuned!!

Thanks for reading!

Peace.
