Need Some iPhone/iPad Help?

Wanna know what I am good at? iPhone and iPad tutorials! I've helped my friends with happy tutorials that make what you want to do with your phone easy to understand. My friend, Lisa, says that I am her Apple Master. My mom sent me a message the other day asking what was going on with  her picture on her phone and also how to make albums on her iPad.

I've decided to start putting my tutorials here on my blog. Mostly so Lisa can always find the help that she likes. Haha. Hopefully, there is a tutorial for you. If there is ever a tutorial that you would like to see, let me know in the comments and I will make one.

Good Luck.

More....Painting the Inside

Last summer, we refinished our kitchen cabinets as our Summer Project. It was a giant pain in the butt. It was so worth it though. They're so pretty.

We've picked this years Summer Project. We're painting the downstairs! Finally. The whole house has been the same color white since Wade and his ex wife moved in years ago. I'm not sure why they never painted. Actually, the one powder room downstairs is yellow and Rylee's room was purple and green. Haha  Two rooms in the house. That was when I met him. While we were dating and knew we were going to get married one day, he painted our master bathroom my favorite color. Grey. So, three rooms.

A couple weekends ago, we painted our Master Bedroom and Emma and Rylee's room. Who can forget the Cheeto/Dorito/Goldfish room? Haha. Tuesday's room was painted Mint Green over the summer already.

So, now it's the downstairs. It's going to be so much work. We are going to replace all the floorboards with prettier wider ones (yay) and paint.

We chose a taupe for the kitchen and shades of grey (no, not 50) for the living room, family room, and dining room.


I'm a little nervous. What if I don't love the colors after we've bought the paint and the colors are on the walls? Whatever! We're doing it! Woo Hoo!!

So keep posted for that. Happening this summer.

Some Exciting New Stuff Goin' On


After weeks and weeks of preparation, Wade has been promoted to Master Investigator IV B. I am so so proud of him. He worked very hard for this. He had a very good case and his presentation was spot on. Apparently, the board thought so too.

Unfortunately, he's taken to every once in awhile saying, "You will now call me Master." Hahahahahaha.

The waiting was the hardest part of the whole thing for me. Twelve whole days they had us on pins and needles. On the 12th day at about 5pm, the email came with the good news.




During the wait, Tyler would text asking if we'd heard yet. I looked forward to those texts because they made me laugh every time. "Has Wade heard about his Master of Disguise yet?" "Have you heard about the Master of Puppets?" "Master of the Universe" Cracking up everyday at the texts messages.

Wade had his new stripes put on a couple of his uniform shirts already. He gave me an extra pair, we are going to frame along with his others (Corporal, Investigator, Lead Investigator, and Master Investigator).

I'm excited for Wade. I'm proud of him. He's not sad about the money. Haha. Congrats Wade! I love you.
