our new toy




we have always wanted a projector but never could afford one...until we discovered byu-i's surplus sale...its a silent auction so we bid on 6 different ones and we won 5 of them so we got first pick of which one we wanted. we were very pleased with ourselves because we got a great deal!!!
so we took a little excursion to lowe's in idaho falls and bought the longest closet rod we could find and found some big bike hooks to hang our screen. next on our mission we went to joanne's fabric and bought some blackout material(its used for curtains to block out sunlight). so we sewed two pieces together because it wasn't wide enough... and voila we have a wonderful new movie watching, wii playing, computer using experience!!! yeah baby!

We have a friend that has a projector in their bedroom and instead of a screen they framed out a section of their wall with trim so it looked like a picture frame and then just painted the inside of it bright white. It was very cool.

Wow, cool projector, we can't wait to see it. Clint has wanted one of these and now that you have one he wants it more. :)
