Our Bed Frame

7 years ago, I saw this bed in the IKEA catalog and told Pete that I wanted to buy it. We were renting our first home together in Falmouth. "Hun, I can build if a bed if you want, it would be much more quality then this!" I was so excited! He went out and got the wood and made the bed frame. "All I need to do is put poly on it."..........7 years ago.

 



 It sat in our garage on Roberts street for a year. Then it was placed in Pam & Joe's garage for the year when we lived with them. This is where the bed frame has sat for the last 5 years........our garage.

So one evening in bed  a few weeks back when yet another comforter was ripped from our bed frame, I got a "little" iterated and mentioned I was going to buy a new frame in the morning. "Why don't I finish the one in the garage?"  he said. "Oh, you mean the one I've been asking about for the last 7 years?! Great idea, I'll belive when I see it!" Well he got to work! Sanding it down.

Adding poly to it.

Yesterday, since he today is spending the day working, he set it up for me so I could have it on Mother's Day. It was all I wanted!

The headboard.

This is the before picture with Jack modeling.

This is the after. My "it took 7 years, made with love, I nagged him quite a bit" bed frame.   I absolutely love it!! Thanks hun. Now onto matching nightstands.... I think I'll just take a trip to the Mill Store for those, hahaha.

Cinco de Mayo Celebration!

It's the 5th of May again! I always love to celebrate this holiday! This year between having the trip to Kansas, going to camp this weekend, it being on a Sunday and a bridal shower this afternoon,  I threw a little something together quickly! I didn't take many pictures but we all had a good time!

My Mom supplied Sombreros!

We brought out the bouncy house for the kids :)

Mackenna and her sombrero hairclip.

A few of our party guests....



The boys are use to the Cinco de Mayo photoshoot by now!!

iPhoto Friday- Camp Edition

I'm posting on Saturday again...oops :) Since most of the photos I want to share from Kansas are on my iPhone, and I'm going to be doing a separate post, I decided to do a camp edition one! We came up for the first time this year for our annual "Campo de Mayo" weekend!! The boys love being up here. It is always so relaxing up here though no surprise Jack is a busy worker around here! Here our some photos!
