Decisions... Decisions.. Decisions...

I like the tones of these colors..
I LOVE this bright blue with the lime green.. and i could always add a hot pink accent to make it girly ha
I really like the gold and green..
I need help deciding on what colors to paint Kinsey's toy room!!! these are some of the color ideas i have found that i like but i am VERY open to suggestions ;)

one step closer..

Well here are the windows that i found and am so excited about!! I bought them off a younger couple that bought an old historic home in Bountiful and these came out of their basement! aren't they great?! all i did was give them some TLC with a damp cloth and windex and TA-DA, my very own vintage windows haha.. i found the flower stickers at Hobby Lobby (the coolest store.. well, besides IKEA) and i think they give the perfect finishing touches! these are in my upstairs living room and i want that place to be simple, relaxing and just comfortable.. I dont want to go all out with decorating in this area because i want that old home feel to it :) next project... Kinsey's toy room! 

newest member of the Kunz family..

So along with owning our first house comes  A LOT of expenses.. one of them being a lawnmower!  Since "she" was so expensive we had to give her a name and include her as a part of the family lol.  She is a Craftsman with a Briggs and Stratton motor and is even self-propelled.  We decided to name her "Willis" lol We cant wait for the weather to warm up and take her out to "play"



P.S. My not to handy husband is actually becoming quite handy.. he put this beast together all on his own and it even starts on ONE pull!

REFRESH!

So I have made some very important decisions and feel so VERY proud of myself.. Ever since my junior year of high school i have felt rushed to grow up and be perfect, and then even more rushed my senior year when i was in college full time and only taking one class at my high school, and even working 2 jobs! that left me with no time for friends and unfortunately i lost a LOT of friends that year because i wasn't around anyone. i also got engaged my senior year and was planning a wedding and graduation at the same time! i wouldn't take back getting married at a young age for the world because i married my best friend and such an amazing person who will always support me 100 %, but i do wish i could take back a lot of other things and just enjoyed my time in high school.
today when i was driving home from school i realized that i am ONLY 21!!! why am i rushing through school to get my RN and not enjoying a second of it! i used to LOVE school and i LOVE learning new things, especially about how the human body works and now i feel like i am in a race to get done.. for what reason?!?!? I was even considering going to a private school and paying twice as much in tuition just so i could get my RN sooner.. So from today on out i am going to start enjoying school again, STOP comparing myself to others that have gotten their degree at a young age, and just have fun being a 21 year old wife and mommy ;) If it takes me 5 years to graduate, so be it! at least i will have fun learning and not be a stressed basket case 24/7.  LIFE IS WAY TOO SHORT TO BE STRESSED ALL THE TIME!
I have accomplished so much in my 21 years of life so far and have a wonderful husband and BEAUTIFUL daughter to show for it!

I get to spend everyday with this happy lil girl! and i LOVE it!
she is always laughing or smiling ;)
BFF!
