what color?....now updated

[it's not a very good picture, 'cause I ran out took it really quick and ran back in to post it for you :), I'll take a better one later :)] Thank you all for your opinion, it was a toss up for us and Will made the final vote since it was 50/50. We are happy with the results :)


the front door and shutters are now painted a very dark brown...(bitter chocolate) now it's time for the garage doors, my first instinct was to paint them dark too, I think it would look cool. the other option is to paint them the lighter trim color....what do you think? I have to decide tomorrow :)

Good bye September...HeLlo OCTOBER??

Well that went super fast...didn't realize that it's been a whole month since the last post...soRry :)
I can't believe September has already passed by and now we are into October, that means it's almost time for another Eastern Washington Winter....SAD... :( But as Pollyanna Harrington would advise me on this seasonal downer...find something to be glad about...I guess that means it's time for vacation planning to go elsewhere...haha. We were so happy to have my cute little Mazzja...(aka: Mom) in town to play in early September. Jax loves his Grammie, it was too cute, every morning he would greet her with a smile and finger point. As predicted, he waited to officially start walking until she came in town. When my mom is in town we enjoy just hanging out at our house, eating cookies, and shopping. ;) Its always a sad day when my mom and I have to say good-bye, we hate that we live so far apart. After my mom left it was hard to get back into the swing of things. Then our sister-in-law, Michelle was in town for a visit with her two cute little ones...Dayton and Daphne. It was fun to have them staying at our house because we got to play all day and get to know each other better. Dayton will be two this month and Daphne is 6 months. Jaxon and Dayton were fun to watch interacting with each other, I think they will be little buddies. Dayton loves to build and Jaxon loves to destroy...haha. Whenever Jaxon would get close to something he was building, Dayton in his cute little voice would say, "nooo jaxon" but it sounded more like, "nooo chicken." Now that we have no visitors I have to get back to my huge TO-Do List.... :( SAD. haha. Don't we all have one...it almost seems never ending...but I guess thats life, what else would we do...what would be our motivator? hmmmm. Anyways.

Will has started Officiating football, I'll have to post a picture of him in his uniform for you all to see, hehe. Will's friend JJ has introduced him into the world of flying remote control airplanes. I got him his first plane for our anniversary because after he flew JJ's, he "Had" to have one, and would pout and talk about it all the time. Then JJ got a bigger one that goes super fast...Will "Had" to have one too, so he could go out and play :) Needless to say Will got his Christmas present already...spoiled. It is pretty cool though. Just a few hours after he bought it he decided , despite the weather conditions, to take it out for its first flight...4 seconds later...crash...he broke the nose. Good thing you can glue and tape it up a few times before you have to buy another body for the plane. Next time Will gasps at the price of a pair of shoes, purse, or home decor item I want...I will remind him of his airplane. :)

Will and I cannot get enough of Jaxon...we love his guts! Despite the fact he is only 14 months old he has such an individual personality...he is such a boy. He loves trucks, destroying stuff, machines, dogs, rocks, dirt, watching basketball, bugs, being outside, and flirting with older girls. Right now he is into waving and saying hello to everyone, walking down the street collecting rocks, pointing and saying "thieese, thieese." He doesn't say too many things clear but he does say: Da or Dada, side (outside), thieese (this), shoe, oh, no-no-no. He loves to dance to classic rock, but not so much to hip hop. He's tall, skinny and has little buns. :) Its funny how naughty little kids are, they know when they are doing something you don't want them to...I try to keep the bathroom doors closed, but within the last two weeks he has managed to get in there the two times I've left a door open. Splish-splash...he loves the toilet. He looks over his shoulder and just laughs and tries to do as much splashing he can do before I can reach him. Naughty &&& GROSS. I wasn't too grossed out because both times were pretty much after I had just cleaned them, but still. GROSS.

News with me...Besides new home decor, I have some cute new shoes, a beautiful coat my mom got me for my birthday ( when I wear it I will take a picture and post b/c it is fabulous!), ohh, I don't think I ever did the post I wanted to about my piano. Yes, I finally got a piano. After two years of watching craigslist I found a piano that I never thought I would get. I couldn't decide whether to settle for an older one or keep saving to buy a new one in a few years. I am soo happy I didn't settle for a few that I was looking at, because I finally a newer one was posted for an awesome price and Will said "go for it!" I was so excited! So, I have a new piano, its a Kohler & Campbell black upright piano and it sounds beautiful. Jaxon loves it too. :) I have recently started selling Pampered Chef. I love selling it, its a fun thing to have on the side and the products are really cool. So if you are in need of any cooking products or want to know more about it you can go to my website @ pamperedchef.biz/sweettooth (I am not allowed to post a link to it on my blog, but if you do want to check it out for those of you who don't know what it is, don't forget to put the www. before it ;) )
Somethings up with my camera and the usbport so I have to post some updated pics tomorrow...I promise. ;)
