We interupt our scheduled programming....

Ok, I was going to show some pictures of Seattle but I haven't gotten around to it yet. However, I bought some stuff last night that I started using...its called Heat 2 Bond. I was looking for Stitch Witch, but Walmart didn't have it.

On my list of things to do, craft wise, was to make dog beds. We were using four old pillows with old pillowcases that were hideous, but I couldn't afford to buy 2 $60 dog beds. Remember how I said I was going to spend $10 every couple of weeks for my house? Well, this was my week! I also had a seam that came out of my new pants, so I spent $2 on some of this stuff and I was addicted as soon as I mended my pants!! I was just looking for things to "mend."

Before I bought serious material, I wanted to see how this stuff would stand up to the dogs first. So I just found an old sheet, cut it down to size and started mending. It took me all of 30 minutes from start to finish. I left one side open so I could take the pillows out and wash them. Right now, I am just putting two pillows in the bed, but next time, I will use stuffing and make it with heavier material. They got a stamp of approval from Molly right away!!!

I am so glad we got at least something decent for the dogs to lay on!!!

It was a very good day.

I love it when God smiles upon us. I mean, He smiles upon us all the time. But sometimes, it's like sunshine, and Christmas morning, and rainbows, and babies, and awesomeness. On steroids. And I know that those times are not always permanent, so I learn to really wrap myself in His goodness, to take it all in, be happy, and just sit back and wait to see what He is going to do in my life. We have been struggling so long. I knew it was only a matter of time before things would be OK again. Where we would feel a little stability. Where we would take all of the things we learned while struggling and apply then when times are good. We have alot of great things going on in our lives right now. Some really great things. Some amazing, mindblowing, off the grid kind of great things. I wish I could share more, but for right now, let's just say that we are incredibly blessed with some great opportunities God is putting in our lives. I leave you with a gorgeous picture of our biggest bl

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best.   So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System.     This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst

Dancing With Dad

I have been working on a project these last couple of weeks for my previous company. Yesterday, I was working on my computer and heard roaring laughter coming from Avery's room. I walk in and found Jason and Avery dancing and singing away.   By sheer coincidence, this popped up on my Timehop today. Avery was only 1 in this picture. Boy, are these kiddos lucky to have such a great dad! It makes me heart melt.
