Snow Day... Play Day

Well it snowed like crazy here Thursday morning. It snowed over a foot. If we were in Rexburg, we'd just go on with life. But here in Kansas, everything shuts down. Even my doctor's appt got canceled (grrrrr). Travis' school canceled classes Thursday and Friday. So we've been hanging out and spending time together. It's nice to have some time together before the baby arrives (which is soon, hopefully!). Since we moved here, we've had this HUGE list of to-dos to accomplish. We've been way too busy between school and work to check anything off our list. But today we checked off one! We've had an empty wall above our fire place for two months now. We've been waiting and contemplating about what we should put up there. We felt like if it was above the fireplace it had to be good. I saw this idea on Pinterest and showed Travis. He loved it, so we did it! We bought an atlas from a gas station, some frames from Hobby Lobby, and got to work. So the idea is framing maps of places that are special to your family. We chose Idaho, Washington, and Kansas. It's where we met, were married, and where we will begin our family. They turned out pretty good! Someday we'll have vinyl lettering above the frames that say 'We Met', 'We Married', and 'We Lived'. But for now, we're just glad to finally have something above our fireplace. Here's a before and after. :)
