Laundry Room

Our laundry room has changed much over the time of us living here.  It has never been utilized very well until now. 
This what it looked like when we moved in.  A pretty dull room but we did have another old but functional oven which was so nice. 


This is what it looked like for a long time.  The frig was kicked out so we had a place to fold clothes.  The table is behind the kids.




In the spring of this year we tackled the room full on.  The ceiling tiles were removed and everything else so that sheetrock could happen.   This was a long project that drug out more than we had intended.  
Almost done with it.  The doors to cabinets, the ceiling, and window trim needed done. 


The finished product and I love it.  The amount of space in those cabinets is amazing and was so needed.  BTW Nathan upgraded the washer and dryer a year ago (bought on craigslist) and I have loved having them stacked up so they take up less space.  This room is so much more usable now.

Late Fall random

The laundry room is the place to be on this day.






Jarom and I got the last of the cedar fronds out of the yard and to the dump.  We had to send these pics to Josiah because he dreaded the cedar frond job.  So do I but it has to be done.  Jarom is a good worker and I love it.





Nathan decided to do rotisserie chicken for Thanksgiving instead of the turkey and it was some good stuff.  We will have to do that again sometime.

Halloween 2023

Decorating for Halloween didn't happen till later this year.  Elijah was somewhat excited but most of us are kind of bleh about it anymore.  What happened to the kids who loved to dress up?   

Our skeletons that I purchased for the ward activity.  The kids were having fun posing them.  These skeletons should be ripped now.  Ha ha!


This was my station at the ward activity.  I had Nerf guns set up to shoot at the skeletons, bats and ping pong balls.   It seemed to be a big hit.

This is the Anderson and Hyde family kids.  So funny.

Elijah with some friends from school.  This was a party they had.


We had some cool Jack o lanterns till they started to grow green/grey all of them.

 

The Betta and The fish tank

We have had these big jars like forever and really haven't done anything with them except put change in one.  Well while Josiah was here...
