Baseball and Baseboards

Last night, we headed out to the baseball game. We didn't realize that there wasn't a game last night, but fortunately for us, there was a high school game going on. We stayed and watched half of the game enjoying really good free seats.



Enjoying the view. It's so pretty looking over the field at the mountains. You can see the temple steeple from the field. We spent many happy summer nights at this field watching the games. We went to quite a few, even if it was for just the last few innings.

And cute little baby faces. Afterwards, we went to Farr's Ice Cream for a treat. Yummy! Then we took a drive down memory lane and drove past our old house and got some good fresh water from the "water tree". The neighborhood has had a few minor changes. Someone finally bought the really cool old house that we called the beach house. They stuccoed it and put new windows and took down the shabby chain link fence. It was looking nice. Our neighbor, Charlotte, finally had her house painted white and hot pink like she has always wanted. It's interesting.

Our house looked unattended. The horrible yard was growing tons of weeds. We are so thankful for our new home. Just driving past the old house and neighborhood reminded us just how much better our new place is. The old house served us well. We have lots of good memories there. We grew out of it before we moved in. Funny how we still don't look at it as a mistake living there. I guess things are meant to be.

Finally after taking the baseboards out of Mia's room on March 1st, we have new crisp white baseboards in her room. It's so nice to have a definition between the warm wood floors and the oh so pink walls. I am starting to wonder if I will ever get her room done. I still need to trim out the windows, paint the window sill tiles, make curtains, make a bedskirt, find a rug, paint the desk (ahem, yeah, it's not done yet), hang pictures and decorate.

Not much.

(Excuse me while I pass out for a minute. List is a lot longer than I thought it was. Okay, all better.)

Hey! Did you notice that I took my camera?
