Day 4 of 31 Day to Clean

Day 4! Create a Sense of "Put Your Feet Up"! Well personally when you enter my home I feel like it is very inviting and that you can just walk right in and sit down and relax. One thing that has been bugging me is that I packed all out pictures when we thought we were moving and I didn't want to go through hanging them all back up again if we were going to be moving. Well I changed my mind. I went ahead and hung up all our pictures and now I feel so cozy at home (it's almost a bad thing). I love having pictures of family everywhere having fun and enjoying each other.

On our dining room wall (also our computer area).


Up our stairwell. I think this is my favorite set of pictures.


On our living room wall above our couch.

So now that I feel our house is looking pretty inviting and relaxing (and it must be working because Miah is passed out on the couch) I have two more things I need to do. One is buying extra padding to go under one half of our sectional as the hid-a-bed is bent and makes it uncomfortable to sit on but that is going to have to wait until Miah gets back to work and we know what his new job is paying. The other thing I need to do is clean the oven. I have a self cleaning oven but when it's done it doesn't look very clean so I made a call to my mom and she told me the only other thing to do is scrap it out. So here I go. I'm going to get the shop vac out of the basement and my Pampered Chef Scraper (which I love) and I'm going to scrape out my oven.

So no shop vac. Couldn't find it but the oven is cleaned. We have no microwave so that was the easiest job so far in my cleaning. Now it's off to cook dinner and enjoy some more family time.

I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family.

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...
