Today I'm participating in a series called Die Ugly Toys Die, thought up by the amazing Stefanie from Brooklyn Limestone.
The concept behind it is taking toys that you would normally throw out and transforming them in to something cool and usable. If you've been following the series on her blog you've seen some really cool DIY transformations so far.
Today I'm showing off what I do with toys that have reached the end of their life at my house...or have they?

Bathroom Review, 1 year later…
I recently visited a dear friend and toured her custom home that she her husband built and have been living in for about 3 years now. On one hand she was house proud but then revealed that she wanted to move. As she walked me around she recounted how intimidating the building process was and she picked a lot of finishes on the fly that she was really unhappy with now.

Plans for the shed.
Behold the backyard Tuff shed.

Tuff Shed makes a dang good shed but they are severely lacking in the eye candy department. Well that's all about to change. I've been collecting ideas for years and have talked the Mr. off the ledge to let me tackle it (which means he'll be doing more than his fair
Boy Bedroom Reveal.
It's the oldest boy's bedroom reveal day!
Let us all sigh a breath of relief.

2015 Family Reunion.
Where has the summer gone?
I blinked and we were in July.
We've been keeping crazy busy and sad to see summer go by so quickly.
A few weeks ago we met at the Warm Springs retreat in Hanna, UT for our 2015 family reunion.
It was the same place we met for our 2012 family reunion but this time it was immediate and extended family...aunts, uncles and tons of 1st, 2nd and 3rd cousins.
