New Dining Room Furniture!!

This past weekend Kirk and I took a trip to El Dorado to visit my parents. We always have such a great time, however, this trip we did have ulterior motives. NEW DINING ROOM FURNITURE! I've always loved my mom's stuff so I "forced" her to get new and I took her's. So Saturday, Kirk and my dad went and picked up a U-Haul and loaded it to the top! Since we had all this extra room...Dad got a little carried away and started cleaning out the garage. He piled in old dollhouses (which I love and once I get set up I will post pics), All American Girl Dolls, my old dance bag (leotard included which made me wonder why those were ever in style...), and lots more!

Kirk showing off his muscles and Dad being very excited about cleaning out his garage!

I'm not completely done setting up the dining room. I'm still working on the buffet and I need something lime green to put in the bowl on the table but I couldn't wait to post pics!

I think the most exciting part is finally getting to display our china and crystal!! Thanks Mom and Dad for the gorgeous furniture!!!

Happy Birthday, Owen!!

Sunday afternoon Kirk and I went over to his brother's house and celebrated our nephew's 3rd birthday. Owen had a great time eating chili and cake frosting and playing with all of his cousins. After he opened up all the presents, Kirk and Owen started a band with his new keyboard!

Owen eventually got bored with Uncle Kirk's keyboard playing skills and he got kicked out of the band. Luckily, Uncle Kyle was there to take his spot. This upset Uncle Kirk a little so he decided to find another toy to play with...

As you can see, he was very upset about being replaced in the band! The picture's a little blurry but I couldn't get anyone to stand still during the shootout!! Luckily, everyone survived!!
We had a great time! I'm still trying to decide who enjoyed all of Owen's toys more...Owen or Kirk? At least now I have some ideas for Valentine's Day!!!
Happy Birthday, Owen!!! We love you!
