Our Bungalow

Our house was finished...um I can't remember but it has been a while :)

Here are before pics. So tiny, it makes me cold just thinking about it. 



Nate, Chris, and Chris hammering up the nasty, cold tiles. 


Ripped down the back wall and basically pushed it out WAAAAAY over there. 



Added sheetrock

 The rest of the other wall that got pushed out and sheetrocked

PAINT! a lovely olive-y green for the kitchen


New tiles for the kitchen. They are supposed to be heated (oooooh) but I can't figure out the little thermostat so I gave up. They're still cold. 


AND the finished project (almost)
Here is the living room, grey paint. 
We have new couches that are the most comfortable purple monsters we got from the Morins. 
In the corner the woodstove is also put in and our house is so toasty (when we make a fire...) we no longer live in the frigid tundra cove. 


And a view from the kitchen.


We are very excited to not have to live in our bedroom anymore 24/7. We can enjoy watching TV and movies, hanging out in the house, anywhere!
I need to do some decorating but I kinda like it plain sometimes, its not too busy but we do need some pictures so people know who live there :)

Hangover Scramble

I almost forgot. 
Before celebrating the anniversary, Nate, Billy, and Brad raced in the Hangover Scramble on New Years day (1/1/12) up in Washougal, WA
They woke up bright and early and made the drive. Me and Matt drove up later since I was more interested in sleeping in :)
Nathan placed 50 out of 160! Pretty impressive for first-timer. Next year he is hoping to do a lot better, especially with being a lot lighter. 

Here is Billy

Nate all finished up, waiting  

Muddy face 

They all got swamped in mud.

All cleaned up!

Hey Look at Me!

I realized I can't let it be a whole year since I updated this thing. Nathan asked me why I hadn't written and I told him we didn't really do anything. He said well, yeah we did! We do tons of things. Hmm maybe I just don't think anyone would be interested in them. Anyway, since last August...let me look thru my pictures to refresh my memory.

Well folks, I don't have any pictures from about end of August to the beginning of December. We were doing far to important things than carrying around a camera. DUH

Here are December/Christmas pictures.
Here is Paisley and Kevin enjoying their Christmas Goodies.



Christmas afternoon/early evening we traveled down to Sunriver to Colbys Sunriver house for the last time before they sell it. We didn't get to eat Christmas dinner anywhere so good 'ol Subway was our delicious meal. 
Here is the gang, minus me of course!

 We went shooting one morning, here are some pics from that. 
This is Jonica (Brandon's girlfriend, Jessica, and me)


Aaron brought the Biebs for target practice. 


Here is my 'I'm feeling artistic' capture of part of the multitude of guns everyone brought. 

The results of Justin Bieber.

And last but not least another artsy-fartsy shot of Paisley, cuz who can refuse a face like that! This I believe was taken by Jew.


When we got back from Sunriver we celebrated a new year, which also means another year married!
We worked during the day and went out to the Ringside for dinner.


We then realized we needed to loose weight and this was our last dance with yummy, delicious, mouth-watering food. :)
Ok, we didn't just realize this, it was planned out for a little bit.
NEXT!
