My latest craft project

This is the finished product - same chair, new cover.

This is what the chair looked like before I got crafty.

Basically, we ended up with my Granny's dining room set and Pete & Vanessa had recovered the chairs to their liking.  Ever since we got the set from them, I had wanted to make an update, but wasn't sure what I wanted to do. 

I found the fabric last weekend and went to town.  I really like the finished product and am proud of my handy work.  We now have a hipper dining set. 

Like my outfit?

Just found this in the draft blogs - Caden has quite the idea of what is cool to be wearing.  I like to call this the tacky tourist.

Bloomsday for my dad & me

This was my 4th Bloomsday and my dad's first!  We did it together and finished at a respectable 1:49 - That is 8 minutes better than last year!

If you are not sure where we are - I am the one in hot pink shirt and he is in the red shorts!  Feel free to join us and 55,000 of our closest friends next year at bloomsday on May 6 in Spokane!

Seriously Awesome running!

This is Justin running in bloomsday!  He had his best time ever - 1:08 one hour, 8 minutes

More good deals in spokane!

Today I got out of work a bit early and was able to hit up Spokane Discount with my coupon.  I spent less than $20 and was able to get Speedo Swim Trunks for Justin, a bathrobe for Caden to wear when hot tubbing at my parents, 2 cami's for me, an adidas workout shirt for me, and a cardigan sweater.  Oh yeah, and 3 dish scrubbing sponges! 

What a good day of bargain hunting! 

Elton John Rocks Spokane!

I had the opportunity to attend the Elton John concert in Spokane on Friday April 8!  It was amazing!  We had a client event and we invited clients to dinner and the concert and we had a blast.  He sang, and played, and just provided some great entertainment!  These pictures were taken from our wonderful seats! 

What a great event and so nice to have it in Spokane!

He even did a bit of an encore! 

Spring at the park

I am not sure about you or anyone else, but I am ready for Spring!  Since it is April, we have decided that we should do spring activities which include going to the park and seeing the Spokane River in full force!  So this Sunday, that is what we did!  We hit the park, saw the river and bought our summer passes for the park.

Caden got to go on his favorite ride - the planes.  They go up and down and I couldn't get a good picture, so this is as he went by. 

Hello Spring!
