Mission Completed


What a great feeling to have my to do list for the week finished early!

I can't believe what a glorious week it has been.  Tomorrow it is suppose to reach 76 degrees here in Boston and I can't wait, we will be once again working in the garden.  Hopefully the fence will be finished by the end of the weekend and I can post photos then.

Until then here is a purse I altered using the Beacon Hill Collection from Daisy D's.  Oh, I don't know if I mentioned it but Daisy D's has a blog and every Wednesday a design team member updates it.  So if you have a chance go check it out http://blog.daisydspaper.com/

Happy Wednesday!

Wow, I don't know where the time has gone this week.  

We have been busy gardening all week, getting the garden ready to start planting our vegetables.  Funny story, John and I started to build a picket fence today and while I was painting the posts I wore gloves that went about 2 inches past my wrist.  Well when I got out of the shower I noticed that my arms were sunburnt from where my gloves ended and where my t-shirt started.  It looks so weird. lol

Have a great night!

Happy Friday!

I am pretty sad, but due to American Airlines grounding over 3000 flight I won't be coming be coming to Tennessee SDV this weekend. I was on hold with American for 4 hours just to be cut off, then Icalled back and waited another 2 hours. Funny thing is I went for a route canal and had it finished while I was on hold.

If you were signed up for any of my classes and are still interested in a kit just email me and I will send a kit out to you along with complete instructions, colored photos. All the kits are pre-cut so all you have to do is put them together.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend! I will leave you all with a layout I did using Daisy D's Maybe Baby Collection. I had so much fun making the pieced heart, if you look closely I used seed beads in the centers of the flowers and liquid glass on the dots.

Happy April Fool's Day!

So, ever year I play tricks on Matthew.  I think this year was the best.  Last night I took a pair of John's jeans and stuffed them with newspaper, then I took a pair of his socks and stuffed them as well.  I then laid out the pants on the couch as if he were sleeping, added a blanket and a newspaper.

This morning when the boys woke up I told them that dad came home from work sick last night and was asleep on the couch.  So if they could GENTLY wake him up and then he can crawl into bed.  Well Nicholas went running into the living room and stomped on his dad's foot to wake him up.  He was so funny he said "what happened to dads foot"?  I was laughing so hard it was PRICELESS.

Then I went off and packed Matthew's lunch.  A sandwich, cheez its, a banana and a special cupcake make with lots of love (it was meatloaf on the bottom topped off with mashed potatoes and beets with colored sprinkles on top).  It really looked like a cupcake.  I also packed a word search he could do with his friends at lunch (the only words that they found was April Fool's).

So here is the picture of the John sleeping on the couch ;0.  Have a fantastic night.
