Spring Break? More like Spring Busy!

We've been bizy beavers as usual around here!  A few weeks ago, when the weather was starting to turn good, Matt came home and told me he was going to paint the shed that weekend. He was all geared up to get painting, then it snowed. But snow doesn't stop him, nothing stops him once he's put him mind to it! 

Here is the before of the shed in the corner. It also doubles as Shaiya's pent house.

 And here is the after of the shed. He even re-roofed the entire thing! Matt literally did everything while I was at work, I didn't lift a finger on this project.  I don't call him my Boy Toy for nothing!

In other news, Matt turned the big 24! We had quite the celebration! I love love love to spoil Matt. I knew I wanted to buy him a bike for his birthday, and so did he. He just kept telling me how much he wanted a bike for his birthday. But I also couldn't help my self from buying him a few other things, I think I may be addicted to buying things for Matt. 


Here he is with all his presents. Yes, I bought him a steam mop. Yes, I want him to do all the mopping. And yes, he loved it. I also got him a remote control helicopter. He was giddy with excitement about it. He broke it  2 days later. But it lasted 2 days longer than I thought it would.

His dinner request was steak. He only wanted steak. So steak it was! He couldn't stop talking about how much he loves steak. 
He also got his weight in candy, from me and from my family. He loves candy! The candy was gone in less than a week.

Last week was Matt's spring break, it wasn't really a break for him since we spent the majority of the week trying to fit a couch in our basement. But we did get away to St. George and Vegas for a few days. 

The first night we got to hang out with S&J and G-baby. 

It's weird that neither Scott or Jen have blue eyes... and Matt's eye's look just like Gracie's. So weird....

We played some killer frisbee at a park for a while.

Then we went on a sweet bike ride.


We hung out with this guy for a while in Vegas. He was a hoot!

  We got poured on while we made the 2.5 mile speed walk back to our hotel.

Even though the weather wasn't the best, we still had a lot of fun!
 I'll be finishing up our family room this weekend (hopefully)  and Matt has huge plans for the backyard (I'm hoping none of them involve me helping out). We'll post pics once we're all done!

  3. Hi there,
    You two wear me out just looking at all the projects you tackle. That shed looks fantastic! A dog never had it so good. You two are amazing. I'm not sure who spoils who around your house. I think you two like each other a lot. That's a very good thing. Love you. Grandma Smith
