The project that is complete is in our master bedroom. On Memorial day, we drained our waterbed and got it out of the way to paint the wall behind it. Now that it is done, here are some pictures. The only thing left in our bedroom is to finish the baseboards (we did the wall behind the bed while it was out of the way) and replace the light fixture with something brighter and not so ugly. Enjoy the pictures! (Sorry if they look blurry, I guess the lens got dirty. I'll take care of it for future pictures)

Another weekend project...
We were busy this weekend to say the least. Saturday, we went and got a car load of stones and starting building a retaining wall in the backyard. Our 4Runner was riding pretty low with 50 blocks in the back (about 20 pounds each!), but she got them here just fine. We still need a few more loads of stone before the wall is done, so no pictures yet.

Baseboards
In addition to seeing the new baseboards, in the last picture you will see the results of one our first projects. I don't know if the family we
bought this house from was color blind or just didn't care, but it seemed that all of the electric
One funny story that goes along with the electrical outlet/switch changing project is how we couldn't find the circuit breaker. We obviously didn't want to be changing any outlets with the power still on, but we just couldn't find the
breaker. We checked all the normal spots (garage, basement, closets, etc) and nothing.
Keep posted for more home improvement projects. We don't know what is next, but it will either be a retaining wall for our backyard tiered

Anniversary Trip
If you haven't visited Zion's before, we strongly recommend it. We picked a good time of year to go. In August, it's way too hot. It got up to 97 degrees while we were there! Make sure to drink lots of water.
We went on a couple of different hikes, including one called Emerald Pools, which is a series of 3
All in all, it was a great weekend. It was nice to get away and spend time together. Now that we are back home, it is time to get started on home projects, check later posts for updates in that department.
