Laundry Room Shelves

Because Travis is such a handy-man he decided to build shelves in the laundry room. It was his first real attempt at doing construction and it turned out quite well. It only took like 3 months to complete everything. Emily is super impressed with her husbands skills and even more happy to have shelves in the laundry room.


Father's Day

Emily went shopping for Travis' Father's Day present on the 7th of this month. As the 8th was a Sunday, of course Travis thought it was Father's Day and he went to open his presents. Who shops for present a whole week early? Emily decided it would be okay for Travis to open one of his presents on the 8th, so he opened the movies. The following week Travis opened the second present, which was the power drill. It was a good Father's Day.

Summer Project

It is summer time!!! Emily received the last of her holiday plaques as a Christmas gift from Travis. They are now completed; besides a ribbon to be hung with on a wreath holder. Just inside our front door we have a cube shelf that will have seasonal blocks and plaques. Below are the plaques.

Family Activity

We tie-dyed some shirts as a family activity before Wyatt was born. He finally fits in his onesie we made him. Now we all match.

Love of Dogs

Wyatt has always loved animals. He does not always understand to be nice, but he is very fascinated with dogs. He loves to visit Aunt Leslie and her dogs, Minion and Dude. We took this video of Wyatt the last time he visited them.

Back to Elementary School

This weekend we had a Spackman Family Reunion. It was lots of fun for all of us. The theme was Back to Elementary School. Family members made request of activities they loved to do in elementary school. Travis mom, Kerri, collected the equipment and planned an amazing adventure for us. Some of the activities were four square, hola hooping, jump roping, dodge ball, pogs, and marbel. Our meals even brought us back to old days with sandwich sack lunches and chicken nuggets/ corn dogs for dinner.
