Vacation - Florida, January 2012

We spent a few days visiting my sister in Florida.

This is me at the beach.
That's about all the skin I'm willing to show ;-)

Love is...

For all you wonderful people I have created for you my first printable.

To celebrate Valentines Day

I copied 1-Corinthians chapter 13 the New world translation of the Bible.
I usually prefer King James, but this is really worded beautifully.

Will you be mine? #2

On Monday I took the kids to the dollar store to kill some time.
I told them to choose anything they wanted, and I would buy it for them.

It worked better when they were little they were in awe at such selection,
But now the older ones look at me like "Seriously mom? It's a dollar."

However, there was a pretty nice selection of valentines craft-ables
that I decorated my chandelier with.

What? Twelve Years Old!

Last week my oldest son turned 12 years old.
How did that happen?
I mean, I'm only 22, how could I have a..... Oh, wait that was 10 years ago.


I surprised him for lunch at school with balloons and doughnuts for him and his friends.
Its amazing how many friends show up when your mom brings doughnuts.


He's a great kid.

I can prove it because even though he's a big, cool, 12 year old,
he still lets his mom kiss him in public.


He looks grossed out but he's a pretty good sport.
We had to pose for that picture 3 times because the random kid
taking it for me couldn't figure out which button to push on my camera.

So I know that under all of the preteen orneriness he is still my sweet boy.

Here are some questions I asked him.

Look out world! Here he comes!

Thanks,

Faux old window - for those who can't find one

It seems like everyone has a cute old window to decorate with.

Not me, I have not been lucky in finding them.

What do I do when I want something and I can't find it or it is too expensive?

Why, I make it of course.

What? It's already Thursday!?!?!

*** This post was actually written Wednesday night ***

Today has been a little crazy.

This evening I was helping out at a church function so I got home late.

I decided to listen to Justin Bieber while I did the dishes.
 I just barely saw "Never Say Never".
I was once a twelve-year-old-boy-crazy-girl so this movie made perfect sense to me.
Although, the pre-teen heart throbs back in my day were New Kids on the Block.

Will you be mine? #1

I love celebrating love.
Gotta decorate!

The "word" of 2012

The popular thing this year is coming up with a "word" that describes what you want to improve.

My word is "deliberate"

I kind of fly by the seat of my pants a lot, I need to be more calculated and purposeful.

This weekend I decided to shake my kitchen up even more
by painting my boring white pantry door.

Recipe: Green Smoothie

A lot of us have made it a new years goal to eat healthier.

A great way to get extra fruits and vegetables in your diet is to drink smoothies.

I like the green ones.
This smoothie is sweet and yummy.

Toilet Target

Yes, this really is a picture of the inside of my toilet, posted here on my blog....
I'd better hurry and type this before I begin thinking clearly again.

*****

One thing I would like to have in the new year is cleaner bathrooms.

I have four sons.

The target I put on the inside of our toilets shouldn't need any more explaining then that.

Little Red Table

I actually did this project over a year ago, but it is still one of my favorites.
