jeff about to try some KILLER hot sauce

YIKES!!!

erin and i had a conversation yesterday about how we are afraid of giant animal costumes. (think mascot-ish) i don't know what it is about them, i think it's bc i can't see their faces and i don't know who it is. PLUS it's worse when they don't talk and just wave or stare---stare--- OF COURSE they just stare they are giant fake heads!!! so i had a photo op at an easter egg hunt and look at the first thing erin and i saw: WTF!?!?!?!

that was the easter bunny there. are you kidding me? that's the scariest thing EVER!!!!

Project 101 Fairview Update

Wow! what the heck happened to the house? Lookin' GOOD! Our house is really coming along. It should be done real soon. *fingers crossed* We've been out since August of last year. I can't wait to move in and decorate, that will take a LONG time though, but i'm really excited about it. It's really nice to see color on the walls compared to the white wash from when we moved in like 5 yrs ago. And i LOVE the new color of the hardwood floor. That blonde color just wasn't doing it for me. he he. The guys are working on the tile floor right now. It's looking good. We really don't have much left:

* tile floor
* finish baseboards, chair rail, wainscoting
* counter tops
* install island
* shelving for closets, pantry, and DVD collection ; )
* MOVE IN!!!
* PARTY!!!

will keep ya updated!
