Our Awsome Fish

Here is our awsome aquerium. We were so excited to get this up and running. We went from a 10 gallon to this one which is 50. So it was quite a big jump. Its kind of hard to see details in this pic so I took some close ups from left to right.



In this one you can see the Ciclid in the front. He is a loner cuz he came with the tank and his buddy that came with him jumped out of the bucket the night we brought them home while we were sleeping. So he committed suicide!

Here is the ship and anchor. You can also kind of see one of the two silver dollar fish. The silver one to the left. They are hard to get a good picture of.
We took this barrell from our other tank. It looks cool with the bubbles coming out of it. There is also a rainbow shark swimming up stream.
This guy was also hard to get a pic of. He doesnt come out very often so I was lucky to see him. He is our amazing plecostamous!
On the left are the two tiger barbs. They move around really fast so these are not the greatest pics of them. I can not believe we had all of these fish cramped in a 10 gallon tank! There are 12 all together. We have two of each except the Ciclid and Plecco. And we are amazed that they have all lived through the transition. It has been fun!

Hooka Bar



A few Friday's ago Nathan and I shipped the kids off to grandma's and went snowboarding and went to the Hooka Bar with some friends afterward. It was the first time we had gotten out in a long time! We had tons of fun! I guess I don't have huge lungs cuz I had a hard time getting a good stream to some out! I wish I had more pictures, but I didnt take my camera. I will next time for sure! The Hooka Bar is awsome. I highly recomend it!

My Huge Project










Its been almost a year and my huge project is almost complete. It used to look like this...except with the wall paper in tact and a chair rail between the two.







Now it looks like this...








I may have been done sooner if it wasn't for a bunch of mishaps like these...







Where the tape pulled the paint, primer and everything else down to the wall board off. Then when I would try to fix it the paint would just keep coming. Talk about aggravating! That's what I get for painting with latex I guess! So now I just have to put another coat of primer on those spots and then spot paint. After that we will seal it with a clear coat so hopefully the precious stripes wont peel! Then come the accessories! We are all excited to have it finished!
