Kitchen remodel

 
So we got a new kitchen. We had to get a new kitchen when everything started to fall apart. Like the oven only had one burner working and the dish washer would fall out every time we would try to use it! The fridge... though did still work and the sink was leaking. So as you can see we needed  a new kitchen. We bought all new appliances. We also took down a wall. We painted got new tile on the floor and just a LOT of WORK! I am going to just say I LOVE MY NEW KITCHEN!!!!!

 Here is our old cabinets. Very OLD from the 70's and we had yellow counter tops. Ugly stove that was yellow.
                                                       Here is the ugly stove:(

 Here is what it looked like with the wall:)
So here is the hubby painting. The wall was green and now it is Chocolate Red:)
This is what our back splash looked like. Yellow!

Crazy Summer

So some of you know that I found my birth family.  A while back I kept having these dreams that my grandpa was trying to find me and he was sick in my dream and told the family he wasn't going to die until he found me. I had the same dream 3 times in a row. So I decided to go to ogden were my grandparents lived. They moved and the family in the home didn't know who they bought the home from. But I kept trying and they said there was a guy 1 house down from there home might know who they were and where they moved from. So I kept going to the home and he wouldn't anwser. I did that for a 1yr and half. Then I had to go to a wedding up there and said I will try one more time and if he anwsers then I can find them if not then I would just leave it alone. Well as you know the man in the home answered. Then he told me there last name was Montoya and I thought that was my dad's name. I didn't know I took my birth mothers name. Then the father in the home that my grandparents lived saw the daughter that lived there and they said she worked at a bank. So the next day I called the bank and she was there and she called me back. Well she was there her dad ( my grandpa) was there visiting her. She told him guess who just called. and he told her to call me back. It was soooo cool to talk to my aunt Jennifer and my grandpa who I loved and adored. So that is the story.

                           Here is what I looked like as a newborn. 30 yrs wondering what I looked like and I have to say I was cute!
 
Here is my grandpa and my two cute kids. He has blond hair and BLUE eyes. So that is where my kids get there blond hair:)

 Here is both of my grandparents. This is there 50th anniversary picture:) They are going to be celebrating there 60th in 2 yrs.
 
So my grandparents, greatgrandparents are from Spain. I thought that was neat! My Brother who is the oldest is in Prison for lots of reasons and my sister is on drugs who is younger than me. She did have 5 kids but the state took them away from her and gave them up for adoption. Thank goodness. So it makes me very grateful for what I have and thankful for the parents who adopted me and raised me in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am very bless. So remember to always count your blessings.
