Happy Mothers Day!

Aquaman jumped on my chest and began licking my face to wake me up this morning. Happy Mothers Day! He's still very much a puppy in that regard; and Gracie... really didn't want the Love that I was willing to give her.

Oh seriously woman... you call yourself my mother... I wish you would move out!

I am so blessed to have my furry kids, but really today and every day I'm blessed to have my Mom. After the past year it is even more important to celebrate Mothers Day! I called her today to tell her I love her, but I call her every day to tell her I love her. It's important to me to talk to my Mom every day, it helps bridge that 1,800 mile gap from Seattle to Watertown. My Mom is a brave woman and I count my blessings for her every day, and I can't wait for her to come out in 35 days!

And a very Happy Mother's Day to my 2nd Mom, Kay. She's staying a float down in Tennessee and we've been thinking of her lots! I'm so very blessed to have you as a Mother in Law. You're wonderful!

Enjoy your day Ladies :o)

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!
