The Glider/Rocking Chair

Jim and Paula Bess gifted us with this beautiful glider. Jason put it together and is modeling it.
Here is the room thus far. We still have a little bit to go but it looks more and more put together every day!


Wicked!

Pam took Jason and I to see Wicked last Sunday, October 19th at the Pantages Theatre in L.A. The theatre itself was gorgeous. There were carvings and paintings all over the ceilings and walls. The show was everything I had hoped for. The singing was amazing and the costumes and sets were so elaborate. I think Jillian must have liked it too. She was pretty active that day! We also visited Jason's great-grandmother in Commerce, CA and went to dinner that evening at Las Brisas in Laguna Beach. It was a wonderful, wonderful day. Thank you Pam!

Can you guess what Kristyn is pretending to be?


You guessed it.... a rocking chair!

The Dresser Is Finished!


Hey everybody, this is Jason! My first post on our blog! I've been working on getting Jillian's dresser ready for a while now but finally after sanding, multiple coats of paint and shilac, and some new flower decorations and knobs (whew!), it's finally ready!

Our Little Skeleton

This is from Ron's birthday a couple weekends ago. How cute is my nephew?! His pjs glow in the dark and of course his dad had to get out his Surefire flashlight to get the glow going. I can't believe how big he is.

The Mural Part III

Here is the almost completed mural. Mom spent another several hours with me on Saturday shading in sections (I called it "The Joy of Shading") and outlining. Now we just need to apply a clear coat to protect the paint, attach the moulding and hang.
