To-Do List

There is going to be a few changes going on in the Vargas household. Everyone say a little prayer for Jesus and me, because I am not his favorite person when I am redecorating.

  1. move my computer to the hall linen closet
  2. remove the desk in the living room & replace it with some sort of seating
  3. switch the girls room around-Brynlee & Adrienne are going to be sharing a room & give Leah her own room
  4. Build a built-in shelving system around the window in the girls room
  5. Paint both rooms...again(this will be the 3rd time since we moved in)
  6. put up a new tile backspash in the kitchen
  7. possibly paint kitchen cabinets
  8. master bedroom make-over
(rough drawing done on paint of the girls new room...hopefully)

We'll see how it goes;)

Brayden's 3rd Birthday

As I mentioned before we celebrated my great-nephews 3rd birthday one week ago. It was a good time. It was just fun getting all of the family together. That doesn't happen very often.

Catch-up

1.  Homecoming was two weeks ago. We WON! I made Leah and Adrienne's mums this year. I thought Brynlee was still too little, so she had a spirit stick.

2.  Leah tried out for the all school play. She is going to be an angel. We are excited.

3.  Leah & Adrienne are taking gymnastics in a town about 35 min away. They love it.

4.  Brynlee's favorite new gesture is shrugging her shoulders. So if you ask her anything her response is always "I don't know."

5.  My house is under "Extreme Makeover Brenda Edition" ( dang you pinterest).

6.  We celebrated my great-nephews birthday last Saturday. My brother and sister and their families came over. It was a good time.

What have you been up to lately?

(Poor Leah. It was early and my flash was a little bright.)










Good Luck Bobcats! Beat Canadian!

Hello October



I can't believe it's the 1st of October already. Where has this year gone? This has to be my favorite time of year. It is the beginning of fall weather, pumpkin patches & Thanksgiving. I am a little sad this year, because we didn't make it to the Annual Balloon Fest in Albuquerque, NM. We have tried to go almost every year for the last few years.  If you have never been, I suggest you try to make it at least once in your life. It is something you will never forget. I can't explain how truly amazing it is and pictures don't do it justice.

Here are just a few from our visit last year.
































I promise they were happy. They were just tired from the long trip the night before.
