"In The Dog House"

Ben has been working for Loftco Framing as their estimator for little over a year now and he had a change to help build this dog house it is up of auction on June 3rd at Town Square there are more dog house that you can pay $5.00 for a raffle ticket and you will be put in the drawing to get one. This is to help a non profit company hear in Southern Nevada called HomeAid.


 No one really new how to build it so Ben was the one to come to the rescue I think it turned out great!
 Ben did the wood work on it as well as putting on the red siding on the back. It was a fun outing for the family that ended with us eating at the pizza factory!


  Paige loved this dog house she was very sad to leave :(

Ever day I would text Ben and ask hem how the dog house was coming along and he would send me a photo on my phone so hear is the first one I got of the dog house.

 This is the next photo that Ben sent me he was all done with it and it had to go off to another company to get the brick and inside things and windows.
this is the last photo that i got from Ben  He did not to the brick but he did the back siding of it I think it turned out well I guess I should have but this up at the top oh well.

DIY Upholstery

 I just wanted to share a project that I have been wanting to get done for a long time know and I finally did it! I re-upholster my dinning room chairs I have a little girl named Paige that has been reeking havoc on my white upholstery. I know your thinking why would you have white chairs! Will they were cheap and I new some day I could cover them. Also back when I had bought them I was not married and did not have a kid. Well hear is the before Photo with Paige in it.
And this is after a long day working hard trying to get out all the staples so that I could reuse the bottom coverings.Paige was loving all the tools that I was using she keep stilling them and then trying to do what I was doing, not always a good thing! I hope you like them it was hard trying to pick out a fabric but i love it know that its done!
