Kitchen is Complete

We have been in the process of putting in Pergo flooring and painting our kitchen walls. And we are finally done and we love it! We still need to put up the baseboards but that won't take long at all. I also made the flower baskets that are up on my cabinet shelves. I am having a sunflower theme in my kitchen :) Eventually I would like to get barstools with backs on them, but as for all the major stuff we are done! Here are some pictures.

  

The old laminate flooring and flat brown paint on the walls.

Benjamin being helpful while laying the floor.

Yellow walls with a faux finish, if you can see it.

Michael's Birthday

Michael turned 28 on August 2nd and I decided that I would try to decorate a cake for him. Since Michael loves soccer I found a picture of a soccer cake on the internet and tried to make it look like the picture. I think I did pretty good and it didn't taste too bad either ;)

For his present I got him a memory foam pillow because he always tries to steal mine at night. So now we each have a nice pillow to sleep on! It doesn't stop him from teasing me and trying to share my pillow still.

                                    Benjamin really liked Daddy's pillow.

Three Year Anniversary

July 28th was our 3 year anniversary. We spent the day doing things that we remembered from dating and our previous years of marriage. We went to Denny's for breakfast, we went on a walk and played at the park and had a picnic, we did some painting of our kitchen because we like to do projects together, and we went to dinner at Red Rock Canyon Grill. It was nice to spend the day together and enjoy the memories that we have made over the years.
