Our house!

I wanted to show our before and after pictures of our house. I only have a few before pictures and I"m in the process of taking pictures of it now, new and improved. I just want to take pictures of a clean house...you don't want to see our new floors with a couple of baby puffs on them and some spilled milk, that would not make me happy. So, today I plan on cleaning the house and taking pictures of it. But for now, here are some of it BEFORE the renovations.







We have painted everything, changed all the floors, got a new bathtub for the master bath, changed some of the light fixtures, etc, etc, etc.


On another note.......

Weird things happen to me, and by this I mean people talk to me and say odd comments and stuff to me a lot. There can be an entire grocery store or mall full of people, but for some reason some weirdo will come up to ME and talk to me or ask me something. They're not always weirdos, but a lot of times they are. I like to think of it as God showing me his sense of humor. Like he's watching me and thinks, 'hmmmmm, I think that guy should say something to Laura'. So some guy asks me a question about my clothes or something and God gets a big kick out of it. hence, the inappropriate story the worker told me in my bathroom a couple weeks ago. Although, I don't think God initiated that one to happen. So here's an example: I go to sonic and I get a grilled cheese. I know....I know, you're thinking, grilled cheese! Who orders a grilled cheese?? Well, I do. Thanks! I used to eat them all the time when I was younger and then I got them on the way to my friend's bachelorette party and now I just can't stop. I think about them all the time. They are glorious!! ...okay, back to the story. So, the guy on rollerskates, Michael, comes to my window and hands me the crispy brown sonic bag. I give him the money and say thanks. He decides he wants to chat, so he leans on the sonic menu and says, "Man, I love grilled cheese. Everyday when we're about to close I have the cook make me a grilled cheese with extra cheese and a ton of bacon. It's so good. Sometimes I get two. I get them literally every night." So I say, "Neat, ya, they're pretty good." So he keeps going on and on and I"m wanting to leave, but he keeps talking. So I have to wrap it up and say, "Okay well thanks a lot...see ya" I know God was laughing at that one!! I'll keep you posted on anymore that happen like this. This same kind of thing happens to my mom a lot too. A while back she was in the grocery store, minding her own business, and this lady comes up to her and says, "Should I cut my hair?".....what!! how weird is that!! So, since my mom is so wonderful and so nice she gives her honest opinion!! haha! I love that one.
