I guess it's been too long since my last post

I have been told by many that I needed to post something new on our blog. Apparently, it has been too long since my last post.

Anyway...

I never posted what we decided to name our kitten (who is now not so much a kitten anymore). We named her Charlie. Yes, she's a female cat named Charlie. I like it!

She and Asia are getting along much better than before. Occasionally they fight, but they are usually playful fights that only last a few minutes. I think they chase each other more than anything else. They both love to snuggle, more with us than each other, but every once in a while we catch them snuggling together. Here are a few fun photos of our girls...

I'm going to brag...since their parents don't blog...

Cleo and Flynn are two of the cutest kids I've ever seen!

Luckily, Jaren and Allison don't have a blog, so I get to brag about them and show them off, just as any adoring auntie should do.

Cleo all decked out for her first horse ride...


Flynn's favorite part of Spring City...the John Deere mower...


Cleo and Flynn playing in the rain at Red Butte Garden...

That smile just kills me!

Enjoy!

a few more pictures of the house

The living room...






The bedroom...



And the green room/office/Sylvester's room...

the bathroom...before and after

This was the bathroom when we bought the house...




This is the renovated bathroom...





Trent and his dad renovated the bathroom in about 4 days. They tore out the old pink shower tile and put in new white tile. They put in an awesome tile floor, a new toilet, a new vanity, and a new mirror. Trent built the new vanity with a corian countertop and we got a very cool vessel sink with a waterfall faucet. We got rid of the terrible mint green paint with silver chain gray (it pulls out the gray in the floor tile). They did such an amazing job on the first big renovation project! It looks and feels so much better! I am so grateful to Scott (thank you Scott!), and so proud of Trent. Yay!

the new addition

I found her in my work parking lot 2 weeks ago. We tried to find her owners, but nobody has claimed her. We struggled with the decision of keeping her or not.

We didn't think we were going to, but she tricked us and we fell in love with her.

We have two cats again! Now she's part of the family!

She needs a name...

the new house

OUR FIRST HOUSE!

with an AWESOME back yard...
