BIRTHDAY WEEKEND

I have been totally M.I.A. lately.  We have had so much on our plate.

We are getting ready to add on to our home.  A BIG renovation...adding rooms, tearing out old ones.  It's gonna be CRAZY.  So, we have had trips to the bank, meetings with builders, designing of cabinets, kitchens and bathrooms.  Scrolling through magazine after magazine...and my favorite Ipad app HOUZZ.  I am in LOVE with that app.

Here is an example of an inspiration kitchen:

If our kitchen looks HALF that awesome when we are finished we would be thrilled!!!

Everything begins on Monday.  I like to call it my birthday present.  My birthday is Tuesday, so all the excitement is going to be crazy.  REALLY crazy.

So, I will start with some before pictures and keep you updated the best that I can.  This weekend we are making a trip for a beautiful 5 year old's bday party...and to celebrate OURS too.  That's right I said ours, because I get to share my birthday EVERY year with my favorite person in the whole world, Adie.  I  LOVE being a twin.  I wish that I have twins...someday maybe!!!!!!!!
