Beautiful views, weather and fun time spent together sums up our weekend! We had a wonderful trip and are so thankful for our friends and family even though they are far away and we couldn't be with them. Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving weekend!

Once upon a time....

In a faraway land called California, there lived a family who didn't blog for a long time and kind of forgot to take many or any pictures for a long time too....So oops, here are some random, random pictures and a few updates! We haven't been all that busy since Halloween but we had some visitors a couple weeks ago. Our friends Kirk and Melissa who were married this past summer are moving out here! So they were house hunting and stayed with us for a weekend. Other than that....a few house/decorating tweaks, a quick trip to MN for hunting and a baby shower and then just normal life stuff that apparently didn't need much photo documentation, except for a few random moments.

Like this girl who has been on/off interested in the potty. And for those of you who might notice that LOVELY tile in the background....well this is where I've been spending a lot of time and (needless to say) I think some more house tweaking will be happening soon and it will begin with a sledgehammer in this room!

The house tweaking....back hallway before.

Now, painted the same color as the entryway.

The living room/entryway before.

Where we are so far....decided to take down ski pics in other living room as they looked more at home here!

Photobucket
Fireplace wall before

Photobucket
Still a work in progress, but I'm liking it better. The ski pics were too tall/big.

Photobucket
Finally, an event to take pictures of! Tonight there was pj story/music time at our neighborhood clubhouse.

Photobucket
With snacks!

Photobucket
Not the greatest pics, but I felt I really needed to update. So hopefully in the coming week with Thanksgiving coming and Gretta off school we will get out and take some fun pictures to share! 
The End.
