Holy Week

This week is one of my favorite weeks of the year. I love Holy Week. I know it may be a little sacrilegious to mix the commercial side with my love for Holy week, but the truth is it brings back good memories, and I don't think God is so opposed to that.
When I was little Mom always used to let us dye eggs on the Sunday before Easter - I missed that deadline by one day this year and since Eric isn't nearly as excited to dye eggs as I am, I only did a dozen this year, and by the time Eric and I were done "testing" them, I dyed 10 total.

Look folks, Egg decorating and dying is serious business... obviously.


And just like last year, I couldn't resist a little photo shoot with the worlds most photogenic dog; Aquaman.







God Obviously knew what he was doing when he brought Aquaman into our lives for many reasons, but mostly because he's so good and humors his human Mom with lots and lots of pictures that I treasure...

Happy Easter everyone!

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!
