Happy 7th Birthday Aquaman!

This photo shoot reminded me a lot of his 3rd Birthday...

He was super excited to go outside with me until he realized what day it was... and why I was carrying "the" hat.

So after some very unfruitful negotiating with "treats" I decided since he turned 7 today he must just be going for the older more mature "stoic" look.

What a Butt.. Gone are the days of my sweet smiley two year old.

But man, after a fresh hair cut, he's one sweet smelling 7 year old pup who still has his zest for puppy life and his love of his owners. He's always there with a sweet Hello from the end of the day and a tail wag and a lick when you need it.

Oh sweet boy, Happy Birthday - you have blessed our lives greatly in the past 7 years... Looking forward to the next 7!

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!
