Sherpani & Slam Dunks!

Happy Monday to me! I got my package in the mail from Sherpani today! I got a new messenger bag and a new baby purse! I was pretty excited to get them, I haven't even been waiting for them for a week, so I guess I'm a little bit impatient.

When I got home from work, Eric and I went out to grab some Thai food, and the guy who runs the resturant was telling us all about his Thai Kickboxing career. He said he was 67 but Eric and I think he looks more like he's 40. We decided maybe eating Thai food is his "secret", but most likely it was the exercise and hard work. More people would be kickboxing champions if all they had to do was eat Thai food all the time!

When we got home, Eric taught me how to play the slam dunk competition on our XBox 360 on 2K9 NBA Basketball. I was playing Dwight Howard and dunking like it was my JOB! Now I'm pretty sure I'm addicted as you can tell from my white knuckled grip on the controler below.

It was a good Monday, pretty average as far as work & play go. I hope you all had a wonderful Monday!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
