A Fun Week

We had an awesome week.  We went to Crescent Bar for the last of 3 trips this summer (although we are going for just a weekend with some friends in Septmeber).  We left last Friday (the 12th) and on Saturday we left the girls with grandma and grandpa all day while we went up to Wenatchee to watch my cousin race sprint boats.  It was really fun to watch and I enjoyed seeing him and some other cousins that I hadn't seen in a long time.



My cousin got the fastest time of the day, but still ended up tieing for 1st



On Sunday my dad and stepmom, who had been camping in Wenatchee and gone to the races also, came down to Crescent Bar to spend the evening with us, staying in an RV park just up the road from our condo, then on Monday they headed home while we (Paul and I, the girls and Paul's parents) took a day trip to visit some friends that were staying the week at Sun Lakes.  The girls enjoyed playing with all the other kids and Paul and I got to ride a Sea Doo.  Fun!

The rest of the week was just the typical lay-by-the-pool-and-boat-rides-to-beaches Crescent Bar stuff.  I think I am the tannest I've ever been, between Hawaii in May and 3 trips to sunny Crescent Bar, plus whatever minimal sun we've had at home in-between.

I was really lazy about taking pictures this trip.  I just am not motivated at all because they never turn out good.  The girls never look at the camera, or at least not long enough to snap a picture.

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer!  5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago).  It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old.  I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours.  Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over.  We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins.  I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do.  They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white.  It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side.  I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done.  We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains.  We're also going to paint.  I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...
