The Bat Cave!

Our landlords are pretty awesome - hey, they let us get married in their back yard for craps sake! But even better than that, they allowed us to live in this house while we were homeless, and now, we are on the brink of moving in. 

John had a "Vision" for Eric's upstairs "nerd room" and so they decided to paint the floor instead of installing carpet. And John wanted it to be special for Eric, so we've kept him downstairs while we all work on the floor in the evenings. John & Kerri did most of it, I only helped here and there, but they finally revealed the floor to Eric yesterday, so I'm free to post these pictures now!
 
Here's the FULL floor!
Here's what's at the center!!

A little "Before / After" action!

I anticipate better photos of this being taken this weekend - before we move furniture up there!

He LOVES it! And it truly is now, a nerd cave!

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!
