old window/magnet board

Weekly craft project.

I turned this old window

into a fun magnet board to hang by my garage door

for all those important notes

that I need to remember.

Love how it turned out.

Thanksgiving Blessing Mix

First you take a bag of bugles, add a couple cups of

M & M candies.

Then add candy corn add peanuts and pretzels

Mix together and place

in bags and add a cute tag that

outlines why each of these ingredients is important

to Thanksgiving.

all done

I can't wait to give these to my family.

They will act as placecards on the

Thanksgiving table.

I also made cute coloring placemats

for the kids. (pictures to come)

Jeana's Picture

My sister in law Jeana is getting married.

She saw a cute picture frame she wanted made

from an old window.

I just happen to have this window in my garage.

With a couple coats of paint, it ended up looking like this I talked her into letting me print one of her engagement pictures and I blew it up to a 20x30. It fit perfect. I just love how it turned out. It was a big hit at her bridal shower. I will be making my own for my house now but I can't chose between a family photo or one of just Jason and I. More to follow on this project for sure.

Carving Pumpkins

Destri and Bentley loved carving pumpkins this year.

Final projects glowing

Witchapalooza

This year I was able to go to Witchapalooza at Gardner Village with

a couple of my sister in laws and my mother in law.

It was a fun night out with dinner and

a show. I must do this again next year.

Jen, Jaclyn, Me and Nancy.

I was the only one who didn't dress up.

Every party needs a pooper.

Moving, Moving and more Moving

At least the kids love it

Coming Along

We have been so BUSY at our house this week. We found a renter for our house. Super good news. I was surprised at how easy it was. We pretty much had our choice of who we wanted to rent it. There were 4 or 5 families who really wanted it. I feel really good about the couple we chose. They will be perfect renters. We should be moving in to our new house starting on the 22nd. Jason will be out of town the 17th -21st. Which will be a super crazy week for me. My sweet babysitter Gay will be out of town and it is fall break, so no school for the kids. Between packing, work, soccer and kids I have decided it will be best to pay a company to come out and clean the new house and have it all ready for us to move in. I have some touch up painting and cleaning of the old house to do.
