Craft Project

Every once in a while I get the urge to be crafty, and yesterday was one of those days, so I did a little searching (I mean blog stalking) and found this cute in expensive project.

This is what I made today:

They are for holding hair bows, and having two girls in the house we have lots of hair bows! The nice thing about this project was that it was pretty much free to make because I had all the stuff to make them at home!

The needed supplies are:

8x10 photo frames

ribbon

and a hot glue gun

The one with the pink ribbon is for Jacey, and the one with the purple ribbon is for Jena.

for your viewing pleasure

Polly put the kettle on, or as Jena sings it Holly Put the kettle on!

This little girl provides us with hours and hours of entertainment!

You Know it's time to get your child's eyes checked when....

You are driving along I-15 and there are hundreds of deer out the passenger side of the van and your 11 year old can't see any of them.

We were driving home from a quick trip to Utah last night, and there were hundreds of deer on the mountain, we kept pointing them out to the kids every time we would see a heard of them and Josh kept saying "where, I can't see them."

We finally had to pull off at the rest stop, because there were some along the rest stop road, so that Josh could see them!

I guess it is time to take him in to have his eyes checked. It hasn't even been a year yet, but I have been thinking about taking him any way because he is always squinting, and this just confirmed my theory that his eyes have changed again. (We wanted to wait until closer to back to school in the fall because he wants contact lenses, but I don't think we had better wait much longer!)

Beautiful

These showed up yesterday afternoon, aren't they beautiful!

Thanks Honey!

Happy Anniversary Honey! I Love You!

Keeping Busy

We have been keeping busy the last few days, the boys are moving to their own rooms in the basement, so we have been busy cleaning, organizing (trying anyway!) and beginning to paint! Hopefully in the next week or so they will get moved to the basement, and we can get Jacey moved to her new room, and life will get back to normal!

I was feeling a little crafty yesterday so.....

I made these! Thank you to my friend Joanie for helping me cut down the wood to the size I needed!

I forgot how not fun...

Potty training is!

We decided Sunday Night after Jena had taken off a stinky diaper all by herself that it was time to potty train.

She actually isn't doing too bad, we have only had a couple of accidents, but I'm not ready to take her out in public without a diaper on and she still has to sleep in one, but maybe in the next week or so we will be ready to be with out diapers for good!
