Sneak Peak :)

Hooray! The pic uploader behaved today! :)

I hope you're not surprised that I've slacked off in the bloggin department again! But we do have some big news...We passed our final inspection!!! Soo..we got right on it this weekend and moved most all of my stuff in! It pretty much looks like a bomb went off haha. Therefore...I don't have extremely recent pics of the inside for ya! But! i have a handful of all our bargain shopping that i've been meaning to share! So here it goes..


This is our new couch...that came in a tiny lil box for us to put together. I wish i had a pic of the "instructions" for ya. this thing was a beast! we spent FOREVER trying to figure it out. So cross your fingers we did it right lol.

And here we have the new bed. it's not at all what we had set out to buy but it was a good deal and I'm liking it more and more all the time. I want to paint the brown wood pieces black to match a bit better.

I'm extremely proud of this baby! BRAND NEW with TAGS...Ashley Furniture... and we got it for $80. Yeah...EIGHTY BUCKS!! This desk..along with the table you'll see next were used in a model home in St. George...they ended up being stored in a lil craft store that closed down in South Jordan. Well...the building was being sold so they had to get rid of this stuff and we just so happened to be the lucky ones browsing ksl when it popped up!

And here's that table...$75 brand new but no chairs. So we're workin on that.

These barstools were another find on ksl...they're used but we got all three for $45 and they match the table perfectly!

We also got some amazing deals on our appliances. We went to Sears and picked from all the clearance items. We got over $5,000 worth of appliance for $2500. Everything we picked were just discontinued models and they were half off..!! This fridge was originally $2499...we paid $951!!

And here's our stove! Another half-priced beauty!

Here's both the barstools and table together!

Malad had a "Scarecrow Festival/Contest" They picked a winner in the 'city' and a winner in the country based on the block with the most scarecrows. There were all sorts of scarecrows...ours was an actual scareCROW. :) we helped Josh's parents put it up at the last minute and it just so happens that our block won! We we got a big ol block party with the city winners! haha it was pretty fun!

And of course...our baby boy. We weighed him not long ago and he was 55 lbs. but the other day he was only 50...either way...he's a fatty! haha.

Now for the exciting part! We also started the rock this weekend! and i literally mean WE did it. Josh's bro-in-law came over to help us out (thank goodness) and with a crash course we just went for it. so far this is what we've got done..its WAY time consuming but we're moving pretty quickly. If Josh has his way we should have it done this week. but we'll see ;)
