Redoing My Room

The room redo process started when mom and dad surprised me by buying paint one night while I was babysitting. 

Prepping the room

We never completely finished pulling out all the old tabs from my closet so we did that and filled in the holes

Starting on the edges

One corner mom let me paint

It's tough work watching everyone paint!

Edges all done

Starting in with the roller

DONE!

Then Dad started building me a loft bed about a month and a half later

After a few hours here was the progress

The finished product!

The completed room with all my stuff and decorations in it!

I absolutely love my room, and I plan to keep it this way until I move out!

Shooting with Friends

Today we had the privilege of going to our friends house for dinner and shooting. They live on some property in the hills of Dayton and it is always so cool to go to their house because they have such an amazing view. After a dinner of delicious tacos we went outside and did some shooting. 

 The view is amazing from their front porch!

Showing me how to shoot

Lets just say I was terrified and Dad had to help me shoot all 5 bullets because I couldn't even hold myself steady.

Looking goofy just to prove I shot a gun (and I probably never will again). From now on it's nerf guns for me!

Practice shot

Lauren shooting by herself (she's much braver than me)

You can see the bullet coming out of the gun in this one

Go Mom!

(She's also much braver than me)

The sun started to set and it was so pretty!
