my latest Project!

****UPDATE****

a few of you aske me how long it took to get me to this point. It took me about a week to get this point!

This is my latest Project. I have had a few people ask me what I have been working on and this is it!

This is for Ella. We are moving her up to a twin size Bed and we needed blankets to fit it. She is loving the super girl squares. I based the colors off of those squares.

I was trying do decide if I was going to hand stitch it or tie it. I think I am going with tying it with black and pink yarn.


This is the first quilt I have done on my own. I have never done one with so many pieces before! i am really excited to see it done! I have been working on a quilt for me and Josh's Bed. However we are going to get a king size bed and I was making it for a queen... now I have to figure that in and try to figure out what we are going to need to make it a king size quilt...so I have tons more work to do on that...


My friend Ceri is having a baby (boy) and I think I am going to work on a quit for her next! a peanuts baby blanket with a flannel back so it will be snuggly!! ( I will have to get one in the works for Sara TOO...when I know what she is having! ( or had they wait to find out)!)


Any way there it is...is any one working on anything???

I haven't gotten to scrap booking...my garage is still in a state of ciaos!

We've moved...settling in!

Here the house we moved into. It is my parents. They have been traveling for work and are not using it. It has sat vacant and they have been working on it for a while.

it is still in need of some tile and all the baseboards and door frames.

we were here during the summer helping put in the lawn and drive way and fixing the yard up!

this looking out the front door...

Above is the front door and below is how it looks when you walk in.

above the kitchen and below that dining room

this is the living room

above is the office in the living room

below is the hall you walk down to get to the rooms and bathrooms

the door on the right is the garage and the door on the right is the closet and the other doors down a little farther and cupboards

when you get to the need you turn right and there is a short hallway( below)

the first door on the right is the kids room below is the room and then the closet

the next on teh right is the other bedroom. it is a bit bigger and the one we have been in. My parents have been here since we moved in because the job they are supposed to go to isn't ready yet.

this closet has been fixed up. the shelves have been added to make it more usable space!
This is the master bedroom. IT IS HUGE~below is the walk in closet

the kids still call it grandma's and grandpa's but I think when they move onto their job it will make it our house!

The kids have so much more room to play. The back yard is pretty big too

this cupboard is big and exits into the kitchen they think it is a secret hiding place with secret passages...they are so funny...they are having a snack in there in the picture!

this is the kids hanging out on the patio in the back...they love being able to go outside and play in the dirt and to explore back there with out me telling them not to wander to far!

Say Cheese

Chritmas... is there such a thing as to much???

Christmas was fun this yr. they were both old enough to get what was going on.

They were excited about ripping them open as fast as the could they played with them all a little before moving on.

I am not sure if any one saw this on commercials. Brandon and Ella love dinosaurs. We went looking and they were 300 dollars. They were just out of our range. On a strange random decision to visit a wal-mar-t by our house we found this one for 99.00. We couldn't believe it. We decided that that was a great buy and that we would never find that price again. the kids love it. it is so neat it moves and interacts with the kids touch. they can get on it and pretend to ride and and it makes galloping noises. It also its when you put things in its mouth...the kids let it eat there hands daily!!!

My parents were her Christmas day it was kinda nice to spend Christmas with some one we have been alone for the last few yrs!

Down below

I made a few Drafts at once and they put the last one I posted under this one! so scroll down!

3 strikes makes a bad day!

Brandon is great at hurting himself. This is proof that he is crazy.
the day started with him opening a door and it smacking him ont the bridge of his nose! His eyes watered he actually cried On this one. ( most of the tears were he eyes watering from the pain)

then he was out riding his scooter and hit a bump and the handle bars turned and he got himself in the fore head.

Lest but not least he did the same as a bove but got himself in the lip...It was swollen for 2 days, He looked like some one kicked his butt. I got a lot of questions bout is apperance...but any one who knows him KNOWS he is fear less!
