Go Hawks!

I can't believe I have yet to blog in 2014.  I think this is my longest drought since I started blogging a little over 5 years ago.  It's just hard to find time even with the girls in Kindergarten, there's always so many things I want to do with that 4-hour chunk of time.  Anyway, here's what's going on.

The Seahawks are going to the SUPERBOWL!  Yay!  I'm super excited.  I've been a huge fan since the early 80s (they started in '76 but I was only 7 and didn't care about football, but came around when I was in Jr. High) and this is only the second time they've ever made it and the first time (2006) they lost due to some bad calls.  Here's a cute video someone posted on Facebook.



We'll be watching the game at the same friends' house we go to every year.  Usually all the women hang out downstairs while the guys watch it upstairs and it's hard to actually watch the game because they're all talking and what-not, and usually I don't really care because I'm mostly just interested in the commercials, but this year is different.  With the Seahawks being in it I really want to actually watch the game plus I really want to experience it with my husband, not in a separate room, so I may have to hang out upstairs with the guys for at least some of the time.  But I think even the women will be more into the actual game this year anyway with the Seahawks being in it, so we'll see.  I bought t-shirts for me and the girls (Paul already has one plus a sweatshirt) so we'll all be decked out.  I can't wait.



GO HAWKS!!!!!!!

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}

First Snow of 2025

Yesterday it snowed for the first time this year.  I love when it snows when I don't have to go anywhere and can just stay home and admire it.  It snowed more today, and we took Kona out for a walk in the woods.  So pretty.

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...
