Mini Kitchen Remodel

We decided to join in the fun in changing up the kitchen. Although it wasn't a major operation, it did keep us out of the kitchen for a day. We got some cool wood(like) floors. For the price, I'd have to say it looks pretty good. Oh yeah, little dude can drop all the bar stools he wants on it and it won't scratch. The dogs, can also run around on it no problem. I believe the wood was called walnut something or other. We thank Candice's mom for our cool new floor.

Trip to the Zoo

We decided to go to the zoo today. Grandma and Grandpa Ekberg joined our adventure. We had to keep the little dude leashed although that at times didn't work. I believe Quin's favorites included the Leopard, the Meerkats, the cougars, the giraffes, and the giant black marble ball on water. We splurged and got the family year pass, so this won't be our last trip to the zoo.

Babysitting The Little Dude

So Candice had her first night of Bonko or whatever that is so I got to be entertained by the little dude. We've been teaching him some mad hoop skills so enjoy. He's as independent as they come.

This is bonus footage of our little dude figuring out the slide at the park all by himself.

$1500 Impulse Buy

Well we were not planning on doing this for a while, but we figured it was a pretty good deal. The previous owners left the east side of our backyard a complete disaster area. They had a dog kennel, and there wasn't alot we could do with it. We talked about putting in a porch/basketball court area but not for a while because of how expensive it would be. Well a dude called us up and said he would do the whole thing for $1500 bucks. Before I knew it, they were pouring and we were writing a check. It should be fun and now we don't have to worry about that part of the yard. Quin sure liked the big cement truck and them pouring the cement. So if you need cement for cheap, we can give you a referral. (I still think it was some shady black market business, but at least we have our cement).
