Hallelujah - The mold is gone!

After a lot of hard work the mold is gone with new tile in it's place! Mark worked his behind off almost every night after work to get the new floor in. It is SO NICE to finally have our bathroom back. Not that sharing a bathroom with Jaxson was that bad, but between the tub toys and the potty chair, we definitely are glad to have our own space again. Thanks SO MUCH to my dad for helping clean up, and for Mark's dad for helping with the tile--we couldn't have done it without you!

THE FINISHED PRODUCT

Happy Birthday to....EVERYONE!!!

This past month has been a busy one full of birthdays and fun parties! It seems like half the people we know were born within two weeks of eachother! Since we have had so many chances to sing it, Jaxson has got the song down--I especially like the high notes!

Happy Birthday to:

Grandpa Kelly
Cody
McKay
Makenna
Cami
Alyssa
Chad

Connor

Jaxson's cousin Cody had a birthday party at Chucky Cheese and Jax thought it was the greatest thing ever! It was a couple of weeks ago and he still talks about it everyday. It's a good thing we don't live very close to one, but I think we are going to have to go there for his birthday in July!

MOLD

The picture says it all...This is what we found last Saturday when we noticed a leak in our toilet. Mark took the toilet off, and apparently it wasn't quite sealed when we redid our tile a year ago. It has been leaking the whole time we think, just enough to grow a nice colony of mold under our tile and sub floor. So we had to rip out the tile and the sub floor, and scrub the mold away (what a fun and glamorous job that was!). Now we're in the process of retiling, and it's almost done! The upside is that since we had to redo the floor, I decided I might as well redecorate the bathroom (why not, right?) It's turning out cute so far--I'll post a picture when it's done. Thank goodness for my handy husband! He has had his hands full for the last week with this project!!

New Business!

Our new little business is up and running! My friend Holly and I decided to put our crafty skills together and start a business called Simply Creative. We offer craft classes and kits, with the products shown in the slideshow below. Besides selling the kits to do yourself, we do home parties and also large events, like Super Saturdays. Check out all of our information on our blog, and please pass it on to anyone who might be interested!

http://www.simplycreativecrafts.blogspot.com/

To get started, we're offering 10% off of the purchase of your first kit through the month of May. We both love the mom's long magnet board for a Mother's Day gift! We are excited to see how it goes--thanks to everyone who has been giving us input and support along the way!

Easter Pictures!

Okay, so I know these are a little late, but our computer has been down.

The boys and their baskets--notice Wyatt's basket is full of candy. I don't know what the Easter bunny was thinking, since Wyatt obviously can't eat candy yet...don't worry though, Mark and I helped him out with it.

Everybody in their Eater clothes!

Jaxson had a blast dying eggs the night before (even though most of them ended up cracked). The tongue sticking out means he's concentrating REALLY hard!
