Toy Box Project

I have been wanting to "update" this little toy box for some time now. It came from my grandma's house, and it was the perfect size for a little toy box to fit in Brody's room. The only problem was, it didn't match the rest of his furniture. We went to Lowe's last weekend to pick up a few things for another project, and I bought some paint. Brody's furniture in his room is a dark brown, Expresso, to be exact.

Here's the BEFORE:

And the AFTER:

These letters were some I painted before Brody was born. I had planned to put them on his wall, but they ended up being too small. I decided to add them to his toy box. I LOVE the way it turned out!

Not a great picture below, but I added a little detail to the buttons on the side.

I was so glad to be done with that thing! It was not as easy as I had expected, but I like it so much more now! Hopefully, Brody will appreciate it one day!

Old McDonald Had A Farm

Brody is obsessed with cows! He has never seen a "real" one until this past weekend. Everytime he sees one on TV or in a book, he moo's like crazy! I called my friend Mindy, and we decided to get our boys together to go to the farm to see some "moo's"! Every event leads to a photo shoot, come we came prepared with jean overalls! There is nothing cuter than a shirtless little boy in overalls! I have to say that we have some pretty cute boys too!!! We decided to go to a hay field for some pictures, and there just happened to be the cutest little pond nearby. It may a great scene for a photo shoot, so we broke out our Nikon's, and went to snapping! Here's some pictures from our day at the farm:

Brody had so much fun looking at all the animals, and hanging out with his friend Payton!
