Happy Holidays!

Wow! Spring, Summer, & Fall has speed past us! The simplest way to say what we have been up to ...is well...busy....feels like we are constantly busy with something! We are enjoying ourselves and will catch up on our major events in the near future.

What we really wanted to say to all of our loved ones is Happy Holidays and that we hope you all have a relaxing and joyous season!

Ugh 27....really?

Yes, I'm getting old...we're both getting old...or at least feel like we are. This year both Brian and I turned 27. 

Even though I was not happy with my digits changing I loved celebrating my Birthday with my husband!  We both took the day off and spent our time visiting LA. 

We spent most of our afternoon at the Griffith Observatory.  

Anyone who knows me knows I love James Dean and of course I love Rebel without a Cause too!  Not only did I get to enjoy astronomy but I enjoyed pointing out scenes from the movie! 

Brian and I enjoyed the scenic background of the observatory...both the Hollywood sign ... 

... and the city skyline. 

We ended our visit by going to Bob's Big Boy in Burbank for lunner! Followed by driving home via PCH!
Thank You, Honey for a great day!!!

Upgrading

We have a lot of ideas and plans for our house. This summer we decided that we wanted to redo the floors and our closet in our bedroom. We started our project in August thinking our closet would be a weekend project...but after a weekend passed we realized it was a bigger job and decided if were going to redo our bedroom then lets really redo the bedroom! We started our project up again over Thanksgiving break and finished it right before new years!

So from Thanksgiving to New years our living room became our bedroom. It was kind of nice sleeping right by our Christmas tree and heater....until our air mattress sprung a leak.
We pulled up our subfloors, put in recessed lighting in the living room, and added insulation in the floor.
After we put in new insulation, we also put in new, more thick and sturdy sub floors.
Our closet.We made our closet door smaller, this made our closet seem bigger. We did more to our closet but its a lot to explain!

Brian, he's so handy! He worked so hard on this room and now its my favorite place in the house!
Brian scrapped the popcorn off the ceiling! We did a random texture and added crown molding!
Our closet almost done! Doesn't it look great! ...finish product to come soon!
