Happy 10/10/10

Something we thought you ALL might enjoy as much as we did!
A Letter from Nate and Leslie (Jameson's Brother and Sister-in-Law):


Congratulations!!

Our executive committee (Nate and I) have just nominated you to bear the 10th grandchild to the Steve and Patti King line.

Here are our 10 reasons

1. It's Kamrah's turn to be pregnant
2. It's not my turn
3. It's not Michal's turn
4. Carrie is on a mission (so it's clearly not her turn)
5. You make cute kids
6. Lochten needs a sibling
7. You make baby products, might as well use them yourself
8. Jamie needs to increase his training weight as he pushes or pulls the stroller/trailer 
9. Winter Olympics have passed and there is still no grandchild named after a US winter athlete
10. It's Jamie's turn to be the new dad.

We love you!

Leslie and Nate


Jameson's family nickname is Jamie, Michal is Jameson's sister, and last but not least Lochten was named after Ryan Lochte who competed in the last summer Olympics.  We hope you enjoyed this as much as we did!

We LOVE when Tutu and Papa Steve come to visit!

It was so much fun to be with Tutu and Papa Steve!We loved watching their excitement to be with and play with Lochte. We loved going to the Dinosaur museum with them, eating yummy French toast at Kneaders, eating plenty of Ice Cream and going out to the movies to see, "Knight and Day" such a good laugh! And just plain spending some time with them. We tried to convince them to stay longer but silly Tutu wanted to keep her job. :)
The Gardens at Thanksgiving Point.


He loves you guys! As do we!
Happy Happy Joy Joy is the day we get to take off our shoes!

This photo was taken moments after Tutu and I rolled little Lochte down the hill while he was trying to stop us, but laughing all the while. (I mean He was laughing but so were we.)

Our very own Tutu and Papa Steve photo shoot, Great job you guys!
Come back and see us soon we miss you guys already!!!

My forever Project

This is called my forever project because it took me forever to do, I re-apolstered this chair and then made matching curtains in the bay window and matching pillows for the couch.



This is a close up of the fabric

4 Months of Painting did THIS:

Welcome to our humble abode. Everything piece of furniture you see was bought on KSL or Craigslist, except our TV of course. The paint is the only thing we bought new :) if I could have bought used paint I would've :p

The kitchen

The Family Room

The sweet KSL deal only $400 (we almost paid $300 for a small TV stand that the TV just sat on top of but instead we found this great deal that matched so perfectly with our decor)

The dining room

Our Awkward cutout that we finally figured out what to do with.

All the walls in the yellow and orange rooms are glazed with the brown rustic look, the glaze just seeps into the cracks of the texture and then you wipe it off.

My fabulous D.I. find or for those of you who don't have D.I. it's basically a Salvation Army. $5

The living room

I recovered that chair I will post some more upclose photos later.


The matching curtains and pillows were also made to match the chair.


I know kinda boring compared to the rest of the bright and colorful house, but I just haven't quite found the right color for his room yet.

Lochte's room

And this is where YOU will stay if you come to visit.

Yes the ugly serger just adds that last bit to the room don't you think? jk

This was our ultimate sweet find on KSL... the bed and the dresser solid wood for only $350 comes with plenty of scratches but that is the way we roll.

The master bath: this shower curtain is where we got our paint color from in our bedroom.
