Why I am a horrible mama

Right now I am probably not a favorite in our house. At least not with our children anyway because I cancelled out Spring Break trip. Yeah, I told you, mean mama.

Last year we went to Breckenridge, Colorado and we had intended to do the same this year.

But I started thinking about the cost of the trip, and quite frankly, there are other places I would rather spend our money; like on a new white subway tile backsplash in our kitchen.



So pretty.

I also love the white cabinets. So now our plan for Spring Break is to paint the kitchen walls and paint the kitchen cabinets. Then we can hire someone to install the subway tile back splash and also tile our kitchen floor.

I am sure we can find someplace to take them in the area so they at least feel like they got to do something over Spring Break. Well, maybe hubby can. I might be at home admiring the tile.

You can justify it by saying "We're having a family bonding experience!" :) Can't wait to see what you do. Subway tile is wonderful. I was hoping to get my hands on some but I doubt it will happen anytime soon.

So...how is the boys room? Just asking!! lol

I don't blame you. We are minimizing our trip this weekend so that we can save to knock out a wall and redo our kitchen floors. The joys of being an adult...
