latest project

I have been wanting to make the kids aprons for awhile and since Eliott is coming home late today I just did it.
Super easy too! I made them extra long too (on purpose!) so they wouldn't mess up their jeans when they wear them. I always hestitate to let them help cook or do crafts because I don't want to worry about their clothes so it will be nice now to just throw on the apron.
Not to mention they were super duper excited. and it only took me about 45 minutes from start (picking out fabric from the stash) to finish (tying lexi's on)!! Great project!! Guess now I actually have to make dinner now!

How cool is this...

Okay so this is a sheet that you put all the way around your mattress then the top zips on and off so you can change it w/out having to take out the bumber pad! I wish I had known about this with Seth, I was constantly changing his sheet. And taking the bumber pad off. It would even had been worth the extra money. Anyway I just thought I would share this marvelous idea!!

Awesome Deal..

For the scrappers out there, I am offering free shipping at my site.

Spread the word!!!

Quite the spread...

So my soon to be sis-in-law had a birthday last week, Happy b-day Jess!! So we had a birthday dinner for her over here last night and I gotta say it was quite a spread. I haven't really been one to take pictures of my food before, but last night I just had to. We had sweet-n-sour chicken (I make the sauce and fry the chicken and everything, thanks Nat for such an awesome recipe, my family loves it!!) Lettuce wraps (mostly because I love them, Jess requested the chicken, at Carly and Pat's suggestion!) Then I made cream puffs, that are oh so yummy!! Anyway here is my awesome no make-up face and my sweet apron!! I don't look fabulous, but look at all that food!! (Eliott cut the raw chicken fore me! What a great guy!)
