I know, I know,

I haven't posted in a decade. At least it feels that long. I'm such a slacker. We are alive and so busy lately! We have been renovating our kitchen and the end is in sight so I will post more about that soon.  It's been quite the project and we just want it to be over with. We originally just wanted to get new countertops, then it turned into re-doing the walls, banister, new windows, molding, cabinet hardware, and some extra painting, and staining. O boy, I deserve the biggest ice cream sundae after all this work, and maybe a day at the spa.

In the meantime (before I eat my sundae), I found this cool blog on eating greener. I've gone through spurts trying to cut out processed foods and cook with more veggies etc.  I don't want to be a hard -core vegan or anything, I just like to try and eat healthy and cook better meals. This website has some great vegan recipes I'm excited to try and stick with it.

Kyle is doing great. He got a promotion at work and is liking it. Weston spent the weekend at his grandparents house and was spoiled rotten while we worked on the kitchen. We just wanted to get it done so that other weekends we can spend as a family and not worry about it anymore. Remodeling is not ideal with a curious, active little toddler running around. He had so much fun with his grandma and grandpa Emmett and his aunt Amy.

Well, that's my update. I realize this post has zero pictures so the next one will be doubly loaded with pictures, promise. That is if anyone even cares or reads my blog.

You better post pictures of your kitchen in your next post! I'd love to see all your hard work finishes!

Can't wait to the pictures of your kitchen. I'm sure it will look great!

And kudos to you for even considering some of those vegan recipes...I need to do better at healthier cooking, but I am not sure I am ready to be including 'baby food prunes' in my baking! (:

Excited to see you guys in a few weeks!

We absolutly LOVED having Weston come and visit he has to be the CUTEST little boy EVER, his personality is something else, and he gets along with everyone, we miss him SO much, we've been finding little things in interesting places the last couple of days and just stop and think and talk about how much fun he was and is. Thank you soooooo much for letting him come down. It was fun to see and visit with you and Kyle too. Love You All!
