Hot Summer Days

This is what the kids do on hot summer days. The recipe? Two kids in swimming suits coated in high SPF sunscreen, a trampoline, a garden hose, and a couple-a otter pops! They are good for hours! Just make sure to bring'em in before they are crispy!

What do I do on hot summer days? I add little updates to my home that make me smile.

The Inspiration
This light fixture which hangs above our kitchen table was the only "upgrade" done to the home before we purchased it.  The previous owners had started to remodel, but then decided to move instead. This explains the green wall in the background because it's a color we never would have chosen. It goes with nothing, but unforuntately is next to last on the "to-do" list. 

Hmmmm... 15 wall covers done and only 43 more to go!

About Me

My photo
Shane and I met my senior year of high school in 1996 and were married in 2000. It's just crazy to think we've known each other for more than a decade and still learn new things about each other. We both graduated from the University of Utah. I have a degree in Finance and Shane has a degree in Biology. We are both enjoying jobs in our respective fields. Our favorite thing to do is travel. Before we started a family, we spent two weeks in Europe touring Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and France. We want to see the world and hopefully take our children along with us when they are older. Our children are our life. Alexander "Lex" is our little man at 7 years old. He loves to try lots of new things. He's currently enrolled in soccer, tumbling & boys' hip hop. Isabel (or Bel as Shane likes to call her) is 3 1/2 years old. She is also enrolled in tumbling & dance. All in all, life is wonderful and we couldn't be happier.
