Upward Questions

For Kirra's Upward basketball she had to fill out this form and I thought it would be fun to remember what her 'favorites' were in November 2011.

The Lists 2011

 

They are a little hard to read as Kirra and Kade did their's in pencil.  

If you click on them they show up bigger and you can read them easier.

Kade's Bad Dream

 Kade came into my bathroom this morning when he woke up and told me all of this. . .

"Daddy made me stay in my own bed all night long and I had a bad dream just right now when I was waking up.  I was half Batman, half policeman and there was a really mean witch with a poison apple.  She threw the apple into a volcano and Kirra tried to go and get it!  I called Iceman, Firestar and Spiderman to come and help me.  They fought the really mean witch while I went to the volcano to save Kirra!"

I asked Kade if it was a "Bad" dream because Kirra was in trouble.  He said, "that's what made it bad."

This is a boy who has always wanted to be a Super Hero so he can fly around and save people.  Now he's adding other things in there as if being a Super Hero wasn't enough - so half Batman, half police man is pretty typical right now.  All he knows is he doesn't want to get married! :)

  Family Room (view from kitchen)
Please excuse the BARE walls in the whole house.  The pasty white color is killing us - we need COLOR!  So we're not very motivated to put things on the walls when we are going to be painting soon!

This kitchen is so amazing!  

I still have some cupboards that don't have anything in them!

 

Pantry (have to say this is awesome!)

 

Back porch

 

View to the West

 

Awesome view to the East that we will be losing in the very near future!

Stinkin' neighbors building a house!

Powder Bath Room

Our Bedroom!  

So excited to actually have bedroom furniture.  

We've been married twelve years and finally have a headboard!

Master Bathroom

We can see the mountains from our toilet! :)

 

Master Closet (or basically the 5th bedroom)

 

Office/Play Room

Kirra's Room!

She's totally OVER pink and blue is the "in" thing with her.

 

Kade & Keian's Room

They are getting fun Lightning McQueen and Spiderman decals for their walls this Christmas.

Kids' Bathroom

Love this shower curtain!  I wanted to find something that was for kids, but gender neutral.  This was the jackpot!  Scott always calls the kids his MONKEYS so this was a perfect fit.

The laundry room of my dreams!

Full sink, cupboards and drawers galore!

 

1st set of garages that will someday be converted to a playroom (as soon as we sell our other house).

An to end the picture show with a BEAUTIFUL Sandia sunrise!

 

We are loving more space inside and out!
