Cabinets and football and glasses, oh my

This week I finally finished refinishing our kitchen cabinets, phase one of the kitchen redu. I know I am glutten for punishment doing these big projects while the husband is away. It took a full week to get all the fronts off and refinished and back on. No small task that is for sure, especially trying to finish it up between naps and while the kids were at school. But its finished, I am not sure how I feel about it bieng so dark. It is 100% improvement over the look we had before though. They look new!

Thats not all this week, We had a mild break fromt he never ending rain long enough for the kids to play a game of football ( or what they called football). I laughed so hard when I saw they were wearing their bike helmets. Maddie and her friend made a perfect cheering section, along with every stuffed toy they could find. The game was full of confusion and tears due to a lack of knowing the fundamentals of the game. Still it was so funny to watch.

Today Landon got his first pair of glasses. I was happy to learn that he only needs them for reading etc. I know how rough kids can be on glasses and his pair cost an arm and a leg. He picked an Ed Hardy version with little skulls down the side. He feels so cool and thats what matters I guess. At least he will wear them. Actually he is still wearing them after homework, he refuses to take them off. He has to have bifocals due to some eye muscle disfunction the optomatrist told me about. I am sure there is a fancy name for it, but it escapes my mind a the moment. Anyway, He wanted to pose after homework to show them off.

I almost forgot... I made this cool spider web for our back door with puffy paint. i forgot that you can draw on your glass windows with it. I plan to make a whole family of bats for the front door. I was in a hurry with the web so its a bit sloppy but Landon thinks its sooo cool. thats all the thanks I need=)
