Dan and Heidi's Wedding

On Saturday, June 5th, my brother Dan and his fiance Heidi got married. Dan and Heidi have been together for about 3 years now. Dan is leaving for the Army this summer and will be gone for over a year and they decided it was time to get hitched!! They held the ceremony/reception in Heidi's parent's back yard. It was a very beautiful wedding and we all had a good time celebrating their marriage.

The Bride and Groom

After the ceremony they had the reception. It was the most perfect day with warm weather and blue skies. We got to hang out with a lot of our family that we don't get to see all the time. Tyson especially loves playing with the little one. This is him and my cousin's new baby Kemson.

Sisters! Me, Patrice, and Bree just havin a good time.

Mulligans with Bree!

On Saturday, Bree and I headed up to South Jordan to help set up for my brother's wedding. Well we finished WAY early and we needed to find something to do until the wedding. We were driving towards the freeway and drove past Mulligans golf course. Neither of us had played mini golf in ages so we decided to go play! It was a bit of an adventure with my crazy sister!

Hole #1. This is where Bree is still acting sane haha

I can never seriously smile....

Looks like a friendly golfer, but don't let her fool you!

This is where Bree starts to lose her mind a little bit. Haha it was really HOT!

Really getting into it.

This is when Bree got pegged by a stray golf ball!

Haunted House

After about 2 hours, we finally finished the course. I'm pretty sure I won...! We had a really fun time but we might just stick to wiffleball from now on:)

Tyson's 26th Birthday!

Friday was Tyson's birthday and it is now tradition to have a BIG BBQ to celebrate his and Eli's birthday. It is always so much fun and it is great to get together with our family and friends.

We had just cleaned our house to get ready for the Party, so we decided to go to IHOP for Tyson's birthday breakfast.
We had about 40 people over for the BBQ! Good thing we have plenty of parking space:) We had lots of yummy food and of coarse birthday cake.

Devin, Shawn, Chelsie and Tyson having a pow-wow.

And of coarse it wouldn't be a BBQ at the Brown's without a little Badminton Comp!

Tyson and Eli opening their birthday gifts.

Birthday Kites! I got one stuck in our apricot tree 10 minutes later... Whoops!

Jana, Julie, Laurel, Marnae, and Shaunae just relaxing and having a good time. Cute girls!

I have the best husband ever! Happy Birthday:)

Latest Project

I painted this for Tyson's office with his Quikfix logo on it.

Woudn't This Be Awesome?

I Love Lamp...

Made this for $3. Not bad eh? I love the thrift store down the road from our house!!

Keepin' Busy

Tyson has been really busy lately running his business, so while I'm not working, I'm always looking for a good project to keep me busy:) Lately I have an obsession with thrifting. We have a pretty decent thrift store that opened up just down the street from our house and the owner is always up for a good bargain! Here's what I've been working on.

Before
After

I made this lamp shade awhile ago. It was fun to make, but I wasn't really lovin' the look of it in our family room.

Ahhhh, much better!

Mother's day gift (From Bree, Made by ME) haha

I've been on the hunt for a new night stand for our bedroom. Found this little guy at the D.I. It just needed a make-over.

Pretty bold, but I LOVE the blue, which is one of the colors I've chosen for our bedroom ReDo.
This one was a little more back-breaking, but very rewarding. This is even half way through!

We can now see our window! This project wasn't as fun as the others, but very rewarding in the end.

Right now I'm in the process of redoing our bedroom. I've done projects on everyroom in our house except our room. It has been really fun, but is moving pretty slow. I've got some ideas that I am so excited to try!

P.S. I bought a projecter at the D.I. for $5! Yeah like the kind we used in school... Can't wait to experiment with it!
