Designer Housewife

We have been working on this project for a month but finally have it done!  We applied 4-5 coats of magnetic paint and then 2-3 coats of chalkboard paint! This way we can hang things magnetically also.  We also mounted 4 cork board squares and a calendar to help with organization.  I would also like to add a couple bins for papers and all Kendall's school stuff!  We decided to do a whole wall in our mud room.  We pass by it everyday to leave and thought it would be the perfect place to keep everything we need.  So far we love it and Kendall enjoyed drawing on it last night.  I'm still getting over the mess it makes every time you draw on it but I'm sure I will!

We had our Jorgensen family Christmas on the Sunday after Christmas!  The girls opened a ton of gifts and fun playing with new games and toys!  And of course we ate more! Ella tearing into her gift Getting rid of the wrapping paper Yeah!  Game and Justin Bieber! Diapers and food for Baby Alive Papa wants her to learn her states Ella slowly opening Kendall playing in her favorite thing... a box Grandma even got to play Hedbanz

Kendall got out of school early on December 22nd and was on break until January 3rd.  I went to eat lunch with her on her birthday!  She was excited!  Friday afternoon Joe started his Christmas break and we went to the Nutcracker.  It was really good and there is not a bad seat in the new Kauffman Performing Arts building.  I was worried she wouldn't be able to see but she could've from any seat. Picnic lunch at school on her Birthday! At the Nutcracker! I was hoping you could see the stage:( We had a play date at the YMCA while on break!  Kendall and Shelby had fun and I even made it down the slide a few times! New iPhone camera isn't that great!
