About Me

My photo
I married my best friend two years ago and we are expecting our first little one in June. Riley is still pursuing his mechanical engineering degree and I'm working at a gym teaching fitness classes. We are so blessed and love all the insane things life has to bring.

Remember the Mustang?

Remember the Mustang?
Well, it's all finished and looks a-mazing! Like I said in the ealier post, it had been sitting for over 10 years, at first glance it didn't look like that big of a project, but underneath the paint was a whole new story. After practically losing my husband to the shop for about a month, the big reveal was on Father's Day and the smile on my dad's face was all worth it.


 



Kyle, Mat, my Dad and Me helped with what we could...
It was fun working on something together.




Every panel and door was ripped off, stripped down and repaired.
Then on to the paint.








Once it was painted and put back together it was time for...

THE REVEAL

We had everyone waiting in the front yard, Riley and I drove up the street blasting my Dad's favorite song through the new stereo system we also put in for him. 
Did we make a scene? Yeah probably, but what are families for?








It was pretty priceless to watch him tell "his babe" to get in the front seat and drive away playing Beach Boys.  I think at that moment he was back in 1969, I'm sure he'll come back soon....maybe.

This couldn't have been made possible without Riley, thank you babe for taking all that time and effort to make my dad so happy! I Love You.
