Almost Done

We are almost done with our basement. We did everything ourselves with a ton of help from our neighbors, brother in laws, friends and family. We had no idea how to do any of this from the framing to the carpet. Bryan our brother in law would come and teach us what to do and then we would work on it late into the nights. Our neighbors let us borrow every tool they own it was very sweet of them. All we have left is the framing in the windows and the molding around them, hopefully we will get that done this coming week. We also haven't finished the bathroom that will have to come with time. It is amazing how much more space a living room, and a bedroom gives you. We love our new space. These pictures are of both sides of the living room.

This is the little hallway. There are 5 doors in this little spot the bathroom, bedroom, furnace room, stairs, and storage closet.

Our Neapolitan Life

When I decided to do this blog I asked Josh what should the name of it be? He didn't even hesitate, "Our Neapolitan Life". He loves to refer to our children as chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. Not only do they look different on the outside, they aren't much alike in personality either. They truly add flavor, and a lot of it, to our lives.
For those friends and family who we haven't seen in awhile I will give a short update. Josh and I will celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary this March. The seven year itch is a bunch of crazy talk. I love him more today then I ever have. I truly found my soul mate and he makes my life fun and happy.(If you know Josh at all you would agree) He works for a medical company as their IT Administrator, or as I call it their computer guy. He loves his job but is also trying to get in to pharmacy school. He is a busy guy. Not only do I have an amazing husband, but I also have 3 healthy, happy children. McCaden is 6 and started 1st grade this year. Austyn is 3 going on 14, and started preschool. Jed is 18 months and into everything he shouldn't be. I will leave it at that because I am sure you will here so much of them throughout this blog you will get sick of it. They are my life and my profession, and I love it.

Let's Pretend

I am sooo pretending like I know what I am doing. All I know is I am starting this blog because it seems like it is the next step needed, in my already crazy life. Why not add something else! Right! As you read my blog know that I don't know how to spell, while I am typing I rarely use punctuation, and I am so computer illiterate it isn't even funny.

However, I am excited to record a little of my everyday life, bad days and good days to help me with my poor journaling skills. Something is better then nothing!
