Family Friday: Thrift Store Challenge

Authors: Krystle

Happy Friday, y’all!  Life’s been crazy here at Color Transformed Family this week.  For the first time ever I am serving as a juror on a civil case here in Jefferson County, Alabama.  The thought of jury duty to some seams like torture and completely boring but not me.  The geek in me is loving it.  Hopefully, we will w...

Cut That Out

Authors: Krystle

Last week, I mentioned that our kitchen counters had a story of their own.  A story I really could have done without but have tried to find the silver lining in it and have learned to be thankful for what I do have.  Ok… enough rambling and onto the story.

So back on January 7 our new kitchen counters came in.  ML left for...

After talking with Shannon about her book she sent me a portion of it to me to read and review.  At first, I let it sit in my inbox.  Still not s...

Family Friday: Adoption Update and Gender Reveal

Authors: Krystle

Earlier this week I told you I would be back to share the most recent update to our kitchen renovation… our refrigerator.  Well, all the pictures are edited and loaded but the post just didn’t happen.  Why?  Because Noah is teething right now and that means our normal schedule has been temporarily interrupted.

Let the Transformation Begin

Authors: Krystle

Things have been a little quiet on the blog concerning our kitchen renovation but that doesn’t mean it has been moving forward or that we haven’t been working on it.

You may remember from this post that we had already bought our Whirlpool microwave but still needed to install it.  Well consider it done!  Thanks to M...

Merry Christmas: Noah Christmas Morning

Authors: Krystle

Merry Christmas!

We made a little video of Noah seeing her presents for the first time Christmas morning.  A way that all her family could still get to see her on Christmas.  (Warning: The above video contains images of me without any make-up or shower.  I apologize in advance if it scares you.)

We have been enjoying spending time...

Family Friday: Homestudy… Check

Authors: Krystle

I have been wearing this bracelet since may.

It is a reminder of our child.. our child we are in the process of adopting.  Today I wear and rejoice in the fact that we are one step closer to bringing our child.

We FINALLY finished the homestudy for our adoption!

Clocking in at a little over nine months, we took a little bit longer...
