So this morning I had the sheets off the bed and I was washing them and Taegen decided to pile up all the pillows in the bathroom and lay in them. Don't ask me why he chose the bathroom, but it does look kind of comfy!

Jared and I decided to be crazy and go away for the weekend, I wouldn't call it totally crazy since it was only to Gettysburg, but we had a ton of fun. The ride was almost 3 hours each way, but Taegen was a champ and did awesome(have I mentioned how lucky we are)! We learned a lot about the civil war and were able to see many of the sites. Unfortunately it was cold and rainy most of the time.
Here Jared and Taegen are on top of the monument for Pennsylvania, you can see out to all of the battlefields and and the two mountains in the back are called Little Round Top and Devil's Den. (Big) Round Top. Here is the monument for Pennsylvania.
When we got to the visitors center it was pouring rain, by the time we got inside we were completely drenched and cold. I was able to dry most of my pants with the dryer in the bathroom though, and Jared and T did it the old fashioned way(air dry). Gettysburg is a very quaint town with lots of fun stores and restuarants and lots of sights to see, but as always its good to get home, sleeping in the same bed as Taegen does not equal a good nights sleeep!

Here are just a few updated pics on the house. It is now sheet rocked and the floor is layed as well. The cabinets are going to take longer than we thought to get in so I'm guessing the finished date will be pushed back-but isn't that how all remodels go!

So for those of you who don't know, we are remodeling our kitchen. They started 2 weeks ago and I think are making really good progress. We are living in a total mess with absolute disorganization, but I am trying to deal with it. They have put up a temporary wall that runs down half of our dining room keeping out a lot of the mess. There is dust and smells and very loud noises but somehow Taegen manages to sleep through it. We are taking a door that was inside the kitchen and making it a window and knocking a whole in the dining room and making that the new door. We are also expanding our kitchen down into our dining room to enlarge it with more counter and cabinet space. They pretty much gutted our kitchen down to the studs and started from scratch. Here are a few pictures of before and after, actually there after and before because I'm not sure how to switch them.
