Changes

So there has been a lot of changes here in the Timoteo household. Out with the old and in with the new. I have been slowly working on remodeling some of the rooms in my home. My house is no where near where I want it to be but it is a work in progress. I still have a ton of ideas. Sometimes it is frustrating because I think I have got a room closer to what I want it to be but then I see a million different things I want to change and add. However, the best way to see the improvement is to see the before and then the after. I will give this disclaimer.....I am not a great photographer. I have a great camera and everything. It is just the operator. So I am sure that if someone else took it they would look like martha stewart up in my house.

So I present "Changes"

This is the last thing that I have been working on. We bought this dresser on Craigslist for $60. I finally refinished it. I learned alot and if I ever refinish anything again there are a few things I would different. I hope to do a blog on here about how I did. The pictures of the after did not turn out how I want, but you can at least see the difference.

The coming and goings

Whew!!! I have been a traveling monkey. That is why there is a lack of post lately. That and I don't have a really interesting life. So where have I been. I have been to Las Vegas, Utah, Colorado, and Louisiana all in the past month. Like I am said I am a traveling monkey.

First I went to visit my sister in law Lynsie and her hubby Ezra and her new baby for a week. It was so much fun and lynsie is the best host. She made breakfast for me every morning and drove me around every day all with a baby in tow. Seriously she is superwoman! She has so many qualities that I want to emulate. After that all of us traveled up to Utah to welcome home my in laws. They have been in Samoa for the past 18 months serving a mission for our church. It is so great to see everyone and it was really fun too.

After that Milton and I were home for 5 days before flying to Winter Park Colorado for skiing. This was the first time we have ever skied for the both of us. I am happy to report that there were no major injuries. Although Milton did make my heart leap into my throat when he ran into a pole and my sister lost him on the mountain and it took him forever to come down the mountain.

After that I went to see my momma and my family for my brothers 18 birthday. Man am I getting old. I did not get any pictures of this because my mom has a fancy camera that takes way better pictures than I did. It was so much fun. I met new friends. Shout out to Emily and her crew. Saw some family....What up Mullets!!! Went shopping and ate. Played games, watched movies, and just had the best time.

I have pictures from Vegas, Utah, and Colorado. The pictures are way out of order but I am to lazy to rearrange them. It just takes to long. So I will add a caption under each picture.

Milton is the one that is in middle of the picture farthest down the hill.

this is not a group shot of all of us but this is a group shot of most of the skiers. Let's just say this, little kids put adults to shame. They take the little kids to the same spot as the adults. Even advance skiers were getting passed by kids and they do not use poles.

Hot tubin it in Colorado

This was on the sleigh ride we took. It was only 10 degrees and snowing so hard. I was freezing even though I have 3 layers of clothing on. I never drink hot chocolate but I was downing the stuff just trying to keep warm. BRRRRRR!!!!

We had the biggest horses named Chad and Chase. They were like six feet something high and weighed over 2000 lbs.

After a day of skiing. It started snowing at the end.

this is a set of my parentals in front of the tubbing hill. It was my favorite activity. We went two nights.

My sister, dad, and me

Me and my niece. Who recently was the star of Annie in her schools play.

Lynsie's husband Ezra at the feast on Sunday. Such good food.

Okay stop growing up. These three of so fun!!

Lynie and me in Vegas waiting for the "show" to start. My mom insisted that we see this show at Ceasars Palace. She said it brought tears to her eyes. UMMMMM... mom were you pregnant at the time of something?

We went to Serendipity's like the one in New York. They have one in Vegas. It was so good.

This is at the Bellagio. This is chocolate dripping from the ceiling. Yeah. I almost broke the glass.

Before anyone ask....no he is not mine. This is my cute little nephew Cyrus. He is the happiest baby and when you are around him you just want to kiss him and love all up on him.


This is us going to to ski resort in Colorado. You have to take this lift thingy to get to the resort.

Hopefully my mom will be posting pictures of our time in Louisiana. Hint Hint. I had so much fun and now I am home. It is good to be home in my own bed. However I did have fun going on trips. And now I have the trip to New York in July to look forward to.
