Remodeling, and other random things

Last weekend my parents went out of town and I went to stay at their house with Marla for the weekend. While they were gone we did a little bit of re-modeling. We got some new TV stands and storage (funded by my parent's of course) and got rid of the old ones. So, here's some quick before and after shots that we took.

Family room:
Before:

and After: (there is blue painters tape on the TV because we forgot to get the flat screen TV anchors. Don't worry, we weren't planning on leaving it that way, we just wanted it a little more secure until we got a flat screen anchor.) Also, notice the nice DVD storage shelves that we got. My mom went and got one more so now there are 3 shelves.

Living Room:
Before: (actually there was a different really wobbly TV stand and smaller TV in this room but I forgot to get a picture of those before sending them out to the garage.)

and After: There are now some silver legs on the bottom of this TV stand to make it a little higher of the ground. It looks really nice.

While we were at my parent's house I let Gabby go to sleep on my parent's bed. There is a reason you shouldn't share even a queen size bed with her. She manages to take up the entire bed.

Last Saturday we went over to my friends house to help her move. I got really distracted by Bella. My dog that moved to Idaho was there. She lives with my friend's bro and sis-in-law and they brought her with them to help my friend move. Bella still remembers me and came right to me, she listens to my commands, and wanted me to take her home. She has gotten a lot bigger, but is still a nice small dog.

We went to the library, my kids favorite thing to do while I look at books is to sit in the reading room and read until it's time to go.
