Monday Moanin

I always seem to moan and groan on a Monday ... so I find it fitting that I always want to title my Monday posts with "Monday Moanin'".

Eric and I had a great weekend, it went really fast and I don't feel like I hardly saw him! This weekend was full of Dog sitting, errand running and friends!

Ivan and Dawn came over yesterday eve and Dawn and I grocery shopped while the boys stayed at home with the dog. They remind me what it's like to have a great time with reliable friends.

Eric was a Special Olympics all day Saturday and loved every minute of it, Katherine and I ran around and played Saturday eve. It was great to hang out with her and conquer Ikea & Fred Meyer!

I'm exhausted this morning, I didn't sleep well. The heat is already getting to me and the fan's aren't helping as much as I'd like them to. Bring on the rain!

On the plus side, I got a new pair of Teva Sandals this weekend that I'm in L♥VE with! I can't wait to wear them - wish they were "work appropriate".

I also have my brain whirling for when Eric's gone in Mexico of all these fun projects I'd like to accomplish! I hope my energy for it now, keeps through the end of the month!

This month looks promising for a lot of social parties ... grad parties, baby showers, etc. Looking forward to seeing lots of people and sending the Mexico kids off with a LOT of prayers!

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!
