Happy Earth Day!

I've been so busy posting about Las Vegas that I haven't gotten a chance to post Eric's new herb garden! In honor of Earth Day (retrospectively) we planted Herbs on Monday. We have Basil (two pots), Parsley & Chives. We also repotted a cactus that we had that needed a bigger pot.

Also, Aquaman turned two on Tuesday. I posted an older picture of him, but naturally like the crazy pet mom I am, I put on his birthday hat and gave him a frosty paw as his cake. I didn't buy the 2 candle for his birthday specifically ... i'm not THAT crazy - it was left over from my 25th and since Eric didn't plan to use them again till my 52nd I thought I would let Aquaman borrow it.
I can't believe our little puppy is 2 all ready!
Oh and this counts for something new too because I've never had potted herbs before... only flowers :)

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!
