my weekend in photos

Posted on April 21, 2013 by Kendra G.

this is what our friday night consisted of, much like the rest of america, i’m sure.
as soon as kenley went to bed, we sat ourselves in front of the tv, computer, twitter screens,
watching the events unfold. much love to the people of boston and watertown.

saturday morning began bright and early at ikea.
i’m happy to report the piggy-tails lasted the entire trip!

errands continued saturday. this is what happens when you have a crappy cart,
and are shopping alone with an 18 month old…just have it. ha.

we headed to sea world sunday morning for the first time!

we chose not to touch the sting rays this time.

she loved the dolphins!

watching the dolphins from below.

intrigued!

so awesome!

kenley talked about the “big turtle” later in the day.

hanging with daddy.

this was the best picture i got of them, being twins!

first ride! i call it a merry-go-round, while i’m pretty sure the rest of the world calls it a carousel.

kenley loved having meemaw and grandpa back for their last leg of spring break.

we loved it too!

i mean, let’s be serious, how cute are they?

our community had a block party saturday night, which was super fun.

rice for dinner. just saving some for later.

kyler and kenley had a great time riding around together.

hugs goodbye.

i said smile, and she actually did. this was a proud moment for me.

someone reeeeeeally liked ikea today.

greg and i were twinsies for college colors day on friday.
i was wearing cream and crimson in my heart, don’t worry.
please ignore my awkward hair/sunglasses on my head.

melissa was in town this weekend. so happy.

we celebrated with beers and friends.

greg celebrated by drinking a 40, which you cannot buy in florida. fun fact.

kenley, sporting her college colors, and kyler

…and then they were bored with me.

Transforming the EXPEDIT

First of all, thank you all so much for the comments
and kind words about the nursery.
We are so happy with how it turned out!

***

Our first project in the nursery was the EXPEDIT!

I mentioned here that this was one of my visions and inspirations
for the nursery, but I cannot take any credit for it.
Of course, I’m not crafty enough to think of this myself,
so thanks to Pinterest, I found this blog.
Genius!

This…

turned into this…

with a little help from…

Updated links:
DRONA Box
EXPEDIT Insert with 1 Drawer – No longer available
EXPEDIT Insert with 2 Drawers

and…

Updated link:
CAPITA Leg – 6″

These little guys are located in the kitchen section, by the way,
which is a whole different story in itself.

The added bonus were the light pink knobs from Lowe’s for 96 cents!

Now that we have made this into a dresser,
we are planning to put the changing table pad on top,
which I’m glad we planned on doing, because I don’t think
another piece of furniture could fit in that room if we tried!
