The Selfie Stick

Am I the only person in the world who just heard about this magnificent device called a Selfie Stick?!

Instead of taking pictures like this...

I can now take pictures like this!

More background, less face... perfect!

Now our whole family AND the background can fit into one shot!

Anyway, while the kids have been doing this...

 SLEEPING!!!

 ... and more sleeping (and obviously not in their own beds)

 ...and waking up not in their own beds

We finished our first DIY project together ever! See that beautiful backsplash? Yup! We spent an entire week working on that bad boy. It took a few minutes to get used to it, but we both like the new look it gives to the kitchen. According to YouTube, this is a "simple" weekend project. Yeah... a weekend project ONLY if you have no kids. Our kids usually pass out a little past 9. We spent an average of two hours each night working on the back splash. So I think it took around 8 hours to finish the entire project. Now, nearly four months after we moved into our first home together, our kitchen is FINALLY complete! 

 Voila!
