Spring Fever at the Smith House

The sun starts shining, the birds start singing, the dogs start going slightly crazy... all signs that Spring has Sprung!



I've never had kids, but I'm pretty sure these two are worse than a couple of bickering siblings!
Although, I do have to admit it's kinda entertaining to watch... I mean Hurley's a third the size of Roxy, but give the little guy some credit, he holds his own! And you just gotta love Roxy's big Chow smile at the end of the video... I can't help but laugh at these two! I just love them!

What was once old…

Is new again!

When I moved to Idaho there was one piece of furniture that I begged my Mom to let me have, it was an old console style table.  There is nothing particularly special about the actual table, in fact it was quite run down and beat up, but what makes it dear to me is the fact that it belonged to my Grandma Forchuk.

So I have had this table sitting in the living room since we got married and I ‘ve always wanted to refinish it but we just never got around to it… until now!

Using just a Saturday, a few different sanding tools, black paint and some stain, we transformed this dated table into something modern and cute looking that will always mean a little more to me than an average table.
