Ten on Wednesday | Because when I woke this morning, I thought It was Tuesday!

1| Yep, three day weekends - they're awesome because I'm one full day into work for the week, and I'm already at the "Mid Week" happy.

2| Sunday night as I was cleaning up the kitchen disaster area, I slammed my finger in one of our kitchen drawers - I hopped up and down and cried. It hurt! A lot! Still does.

3| This weekend was FULL of projects - We Painted the bedroom, finished up my craft room, tore apart the upstairs, and laid new flooring!

4| I am thankful today that I am not a homeowner. I know there are several perks, but I'm learning what old(er) houses do when they need maintenance, and it's a never ending project, especially since I love old(er) houses!

5| Speaking of #4, on Saturday night when Eric was in the shower upstairs, I noticed a dripping sound in our bathroom downstairs, so I walked in the room only to find a steady drip of water coming from our ceiling. No Bueno!

6| Have I mentioned the SEAHAWKS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL! What a crazy amount of excitement and buzz around the city- SO FUN! Also, if you're hating on Richard Sherman... Don't - check this article out instead.

7| I ♥ Richard Sherman!

8| I have a feeling Eric and I have a hot date for Ikea tonight and I couldn't be more thrilled!

9| I'm PRAYING for flooring right now - the flooring gets done = we can move in!

10| Who wants to come help us move!?!?!

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!

R is for Ronnebeck!
