Most exciting news is... We got our basement finished!!! We had lots of family help, which we appreciate tons!

So, I had an unexpected, yet delightful "accident" happen in the process of finishing our basement. See this deer head in the family room? Well, this is the last time you will see it there! While Dave was carrying in some drywall he accidentally smacked into the deer head making a huge hole in the wall and knocking it unstable. Aw, shucks, so sad! It has since found a new home in the garage.

Hardest part for me was trying to cram all our junk into one small storage space, which still looks a MESS! I need some organization tips, if you have any.. send them my way!


My dad and brothers in law did so much to help us out! It's nice having family members with skill! Dawson was always downstairs helping "gumpa."
FINISHED PRODUCT!!!

This is a favorite for the boys! Pizza parties downstairs while watching the Jazz game/movies!
Landon really got into watching the Jazz games this season. It was convenient for him to quickly become a Lakers fan when they were winning though.

We've been lucky to have my brother's baby, Eliza on Tuesdays. She is the worlds best baby, I kid you not. She never cries and is just content to be wherever you put her. Both my boys are smitten with her! Landon, as you can see is in love. I've never seen him take to a baby like this before. (Please refrain from the "You need another one now" comments. )

My Uncle Josh taught my family how to go Geo caching. It has now become an obsession with Landon! He can't get enough. Dave's brother gave him a GPS a few years back.. it's not near as nice as the one my uncle had, but it serves it's purpose, for now. We really want to get a new one!


Dave was looking at the GPS and trying to figure out if we were in the right location while Landon went off searching.. sure enough he found it, and he couldn't have been more proud! They are camouflage little boxes, can you spot it in the picture?
