Almost done... finally....

Well, our replacement carpet has now been laid & it looks fabulous!
New tile in the foyer is done.
My bathroom is painted.
The end is in site.
All that's needed to be done now is put the pool table back together.
Today's post is all about pics.
A few pics of my bathroom & a few pics of the foyer:








I have been so busy lately that I haven't had time to read anyone's blogs, I'm sorry :(
There truly just isn't enough time in a day, believe me.
Hope you're all well.

TTFN!

Keeping up & toys

So I suck at this blog thing lately.
I restarted it with hopes that I will be able to keep it up more and hopefully read more back, but I'm not having much luck here.
There is just not enough hours in the day to do everything I want.
As it is, I don't go to bed early. Never before midnight but as a rule of thumb always by 12:45am since I do have to get up at 6:00am for work, I find that if I sleep less then 5 hours I have a real hard time getting my ass out of bed.

Woo hooo!!!
We're officially toy testers for Hasbro. We applied a few months ago but got rejected... till last week when I got an email from them welcoming me to the program. I had to complete this form saying that I will give them my honest feedback on these toys they're going to send me & then we can keep the toys. So I agreed & faxed the from back friday. Looky what we got in yesterday:


Isn't that cool!!!??
I think I was more excited over these then Nate, lol!
Gotta love the freebies!

So they started slowly working on our basement.
It will probably be another 3 weeks since it's back to what it was as the carpet is on order & it will be made on July 11th, Ugh. My basement is all in disarray.
Since the kids can't play in their playroom they keep bringing toys in the family room and now this room looks like a toy room. I can't wait till they have their toy room back.

Pssst.... I have to tell you something....













Are you ready???......














Really? You really wanna know????













GUITAR HERO AEROSMITH IS COMING OUT IN 4 DAYS!!!!!!!
YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!!!

And what did you think I was going to tell you???

Till next time...
TTFN!

Vacation recap....

In Nate's funny hat

In the big chair

In his silly hat
Ugh... where do I start?
Well, as you seen in my prior post, we completely finished our games room, then on monday morning our hot water tank burst & flooded the kids playroom & 1/2 of our games room.
This all happened in span of 10 minutes!!! Yes!! 10 minutes!!!
I was doing laundry and just grabbed my clean clothes & started folding them when I returned to go back to the laundry room to only walk into my nice, warm, squishy carpet in the games room.
So our vacation did not start very well.
Needless to say we had to put a claim through the insurance. They came out did emergency clean up. Luckily they didn't have to cut out any of our newly painted drywall. We are however, getting all new carpet. We're just awaiting as to when this will all happen.
The kids are getting anxious without their playroom (but I think the big kids are more anxious then the little ones, lol).

On tuesday we took the kids away & that was nice. The pics are from our trip.
We came home on thursday to the mess in our basement & have been living with it since. I hate having our house in disarray. We were supposed to have everyone over last saturday for Father's Day but ended up having to cancel because of this.
The thing that burns me up the most is that we just finished that room & now we don't even get to enjoy it for who knows how long.

So it wasn't the best vacay ever but what can you do. It could have been worse. We could have been already gone & the whole basement could have been flooded out.

Till next time...
TTFN!
