Visit to Austin

We went to Austin last week and had lots of fun with our sweet friends there. Lizzy and I stayed for one day, and then Katie stayed two more nights by herself. While we were there we went to the Austin Art in the Park and got to hear the Biscuit Brothers sing. They had a really cute show. Then the kids got their faces painted.

Sunday School Swim

We hosted our Sunday School Summer Fun night the a couple of weeks ago and had lots of fun with some of our friends.

Amazing Trasnformation!

Worked on the fifth bedroom today. It was a disaster. I think the gravity is really thick in there and things just whoosh right in from all around the house. Katie's been doing a lot of crafts lately too and sometimes (always) forgets to put things away. I wanted to document it while it was clean because I know tomorrow morning I'll go up there and it will be a mess again.

MOPS BBQ

Last night, we had our fifth annual Mops family BBQ. We had a great time with our friends!

Doesn't everyone wear cowboy boots, a swimming suit and a headband?

Rearranging the girls' bedrooms

I've been searching for a new comforter for Lizzy for awhile now. Every time I see one I like, they only have twin and full sizes. The one we had was a full/queen and didn't cover the bed completely. And it didn't wear well, so it was all lumpy. Yesterday at Penney's, I found a cute one on sale for $50 with a coupon! And they had them in queen size!!

So this inspired me to clean out the girls' rooms and rearrange their furniture. Lizzy's bed had been shoved against the wall which gave her more floor space, but made it a pain in the neck to make. So we decided to try it in the middle, thinking it would be too big, but it worked great.

We even got her closet cleaned out!

Katie's bed had been against the window. I decided to move it against the wall again and I like it better.

I'm still deciding how to arrange her letters and bulletin board.
