Our Dear Elder Downs......
So I am starting to hate missionary transfers! Elder Downs has been here for 4 1/2 months and our family has just grown to love him! Our boyz get so excited when he comes! They talk about things he does (lifting them up with one hand, mostly), how much University of Wyoming is not as good as BYU (he played football for UofW), etc. He goes home in 9 weeks and we were sure hoping the Lord would let him finish here in Fallon. NOPE! So he came over last night to take some pictures. Of course we all got our BYU shirts on to take pictures....he KNEW we would, so brought a UofW t-shirt to wear in the picture, too! (Actually signed it and gave it to use to keep) Anyhow, what a good young man he is! We will miss him and can't wait to see him again someday!

My September project
I have to share what CONSUMED my entire month of September. Don't want to do it anytime soon, but glad I did. Nathan and the twins keep bugging me when I am going to do their room! Anyhow, here is 'THE BYU ROOM':
Their door:
Gotta love a Cricut and some white vinyl! Cheaper border! The "Y" is a poster board. Painted the walls.
Stripped, sanded,primed and painted beds to match. (WORSE part of the whole things!)
Made them all matching quilts with extra fabric for a throw pillow. (Yes that is how they make their beds! I don't care!)
Since we will NEVER be able to add onto our house because of the economy.....I needed to clear out the 2 dressers that were in there so they had more floor space. So made these cubbies....ended up nice, but where not well thought out. Lesson learned! Finally got done!
Shelf for Ryan's legos and things he doesn't want brother's to get to!
Quote over window from President Monson.
Surprisingly the kids REALLY are loving it. I thought they'd be more 'cool mom'....they are boys, right?! They think on the blue wall under the "Y" there needs to be the cougar fight song or a flat screen TV. Took 2 hours to do the quote! Either way.....not happening! Maybe after the holidays I will tackle their bathroom. It's in need of some TLC!
