Thursday Update

It's the end of summer and I have one project that i have been working on here and there. I have been seeing this on blogs lately and have been wanting to do one. It took me awhile to find the old windows and then they did not look the way I had imagined them. They had nasty paint colors on them. So I would go out to the garage and try to sand, but it was just way too hot until about a week ago.  I like how this one is turning out. I have another matching one that is in the process of being sanded.

I want them to display all the fun things we do together with family each year. I think I will change the pictures around at the end of each summer to enjoy all winter long! I will have a total of 12 spaces. I will share the finished project after it is hung.

Tuesday Update & Second giveaway!

Fabric Flowers made using this Tutorial by my friend Jessica! I made mine using some

 left over flannel.

This bag just needs a button and it is complete. You can get the free pattern from one of my favorite blogs here!

This is the fall craft that I was working on in the previous post. I plan on changing the frame content each month and then at the end of a year I will have 12 blocks and can make a quilt. We will see how well I do. This is an Applique on a 10 inch square with a 2 inch border. Not too hard really, if you try it let me know so I can see yours!

Tuesday Update

Nothing new on the crafty side this week! It has been a week of moving and cleaning!! Darren also decided to remove some overgrown bushes out front and get our yard ready for fall. We still have a ways to go but it is a work in progress. My cherry tomatoes have started to ripen and are so yummy!!

I have to say I was really not liking the whole idea of pulling the whole bush out root and all with the truck!!!

These two are hard workers I tell ya!

25 years of fun:)

Twenty Five years ago today we were Married here.

I received these, they are beautiful!

We ate dinner here with the family. I had Salmon and Darren had Lobster, we all had our fair share of their hush puppies!!!!

Here are a few shot's of the beautiful flowers in the arrangement.
