Paint is a magical thing.

I find it amazing that some sanding, primer, and a bunch of spray paint can turn this table...

...into THIS table!

How fun is that color?

I have been wanting to paint this table since we got married. I had some extra time over spring break, so I bought some paint and went to town.

 Considering we got this table for FREE, I'd say the 30 bucks I spent on sandpaper, primer, and spray paint was worth it.

If you have not seen that youtube video then first of all, who are you?...and second, ignore my captions.

Meet Dexter. He is six weeks old and he is probably the most adorable fluffy ginger kitten you will ever see in your life. Just try to argue with that face. You can't. 

He is our new baby and we love him! Except when he pees on the carpet...BUT, he used his litter box for the first time today on his own!! YES! And now I'm blogging about excrements...

I'll stop and just let you look at his cute pictures again...you know you want to!

I spent my spring break...

-taking a road trip to Texas with the hubs

-experiencing my first In and Out Burger

-shoppin it up at Grapevine Mills and IKEA

-taking LOTS of naps

-working on some projects for our apt. (pictures soon!)

-spring cleaning

-going to house church

-getting in lots of David time

-eating at Cuppies and Big Truck Tacos (duh.)

-working a tiny bit on report cards

-finishing a book and starting a new one

-seeing the Hunger Games (Loved it.)

-hanging out at the new studio

-taking a trip to the zoo

-feeding giraffes

-adopting a new tiny baby fluffy orange kitten named "Dexter" (he deserves his own post)

It was fabulous.
I don't think I've ever not wanted to go back to school so bad.

But, nevertheless I did...and it was worth it to hear all my lil chitlins tell me they missed me.

If you have not watched this video already, take 30 minutes of your time and educate yourself.

We can make a difference if we spread the word and let others know that this is an issue worth fighting for. 

 

Pass it on.

So...

I got a job. 

I am now the newest Kindergarten teacher at Angie Debo Elementary. 

It's so wonderful and exhausting and fun and stressful and rewarding and crazy all at once!

So that being said...I haven't had a lot of time to blog...so I'll let my phone show you what's been going on in my life!
