And fun was had by all

Happy Birthday Ella !

The cake was made of creamfilled cupcakes. They were pretty good. Way too much frosting because I had to use it as a crack filler but it was pretty good.


She loves to sit on boxes. This one was her birthday present. Pretty cute!

Here is a video at the birthday party. We had a combined one with Cousin Brynn. Lots of family in attendance. Including Jack the infamous dog. He goes by many names, Jackie do right, Jack the crack, all very original for the Jack Russel Terrier from Aus. He loves balloons some would call it cruel but it makes for great party fun.



They love to swing! They both actually like to swing together better. I think they feel more safe. This picture is at Manito park. They have a great park.



This one is for Aunt Julie she keeps the kids well outfitted in Vandal gear. Thanks!


This is Josh at Treaty rock. It is a fun place with a great old merry go round. you know the ones you spin. It was great. Wyatt didn't like it though.





My mom and sister came to visit over conference weekend and we had a lot of fun. Oh

A video of Ella laughing in the swing it's great.

Which do you think is Store bought?

Without cheating ell me which you think is bought from the store and why. Strictly for quality control. (There are two pictures of each piece)






How well do you think they match?

Now scoll down and look at which is our and tell me how much you think it is worth.

I would love any sort of feed back positive or negative. We hope to have some sort of website soon even if it is just another blog.

FYI I mixed the stain this is not a color you can buy at home depot. The spindles are held in place by a little square hole that Josh chiseled by hand.

Look What Josh Did!!

Well here is is Werill Woodworks first piece of furniture. Josh did a lot of it by hand and earned enough on it to go buy some tools to do it for him next time. I did the finish and over all we are very happy with it. We learned a lot and hope to improve with each piece we do.

From a distance and Josh's parent's house.

From the top. You can see the color and the wood grain. It is quarter sawn white oak.

Up close.

More pictures to follow as long as a comparison to a Stickly piece.

February/ March Update

I had some great pictures I wanted to post. So here is a visual update.

Wyatt burned his hand on his grandparents stove but has healed pretty well and I think the scars will fade.


Wyatt and Ella playing in a wagon. It was a good game, but that wagon is so tippy that I had to put the kibosh on it.
.
The cake I made for Josh for Valentines day. I was going for red, but I decided I didn't need that much red 5 in my system so we got pink.

Also Ella with a clip in her hair. I love that her hair is a little curly after her bath. It is fun to put something in but also kind of bothersome. I'm not overly good at accessorizing since I don't do it often myself.

Wyatt Tracks

We had a significant spring snow in the middle of March so it was pretty warm outside as it melted off. Wyatt had a lot of fun playing in it. Making tracks and eating snow. I think this is one of the first times he just really enjoyed snow. Ella was sleeping. It was nice to sit on my aforementioned green bench and enjoy the sun. Not to mention my son and how enjoyed making tracks.
