Growing like a weed

He used to stay where he was placed all night long. Not anymore! He moves all over and he also moves everything around him. My sweet little boy is growing up. He is becoming mobile!

Sneak Peak Sundays...

Stay Tuned to see what I have up my sleeve for all these different Fabrics!

Frames hung with care

I found a the saying I wanted for my frame and cut it out with my Silhouette. Then Found some scrapbook paper...two different kinds and added it to the red frame.

Some shots of the wall

I love it! Now for the vases next to the frames. Oh and I still have 3 frames to put pictures in.

Wall of FRAMEs

So here are all my frames! haha! Found them all at Good Will...You should have seen my cart. Oh and the barrel...That is the next project. Stay tuned...

So I first started out by painting them all Chocolate Brown

Then I got side tracked and saw that I had a frame that was a like a shadow box. I remembered that I had this lower case d that I haven't ever figured out what to do with it. It was from my work shower that my friend Brandi Jo put on for me. So I figured what a perfect place to put it... in the shadow box on my new Wall of Frames.

I Mod Podged some scrapbook paper to the back of the shadow box. Spray painted the frame and stenciled the d.

PERFECTo!

Here is another frame that I am painting green then I will glaze it.

The frames dried so I sprayed some blue, green, and a dark red, and of course left some chocolate brown.

I brought out my ugly teal BONJOUR sign that I have never liked and figured I would paint it the new pretty blue I got today at Freds. So spray paint I did. Then with the Idea from above with the lower case d I stenciled on the wood letters... and now I like it so much better.

No I just have to put it together and hang it up!

Here are some of the other frames...

Here is the ugly wall that I am re-vamping. I have always hated this wall since we built this house. Time for something pretty. A little surprise for my husband too! Now time to choose the pictures and edit them for the wall!

Feeling Funky Friday

Well I finally did it! Wow! Sweater dress with leggings. I have pulled it off just hanging out around the house but I finally went out.

When I came down the stairs this morning to give the baby to my husband, he said to Torelan, "Wow look at mommy she is trying to be sexy." So of course this made me feel wonderful.

{sidebar} Torelan doesn't know what sexy is... LOL

Facts:

1. After I graduated I moved to Washington to pursue a Career in physical Therapy... This meant me moving out their with my biological father. I had the time of my life for the short time I was in Seattle, but I came back to Oregon the next year and haven't talked to my biological father since. Not sad just how it is.

2. In November of 2001 not yet knowing that ...I met the man I would someday marry. I actually couldn't stand him when I first met him. I thought he was a turd! :) We got engaged in 2003 on Valentines day!

3. My husband and I both went back to college, part time, to get our degrees while still working a full time job. It took many years but we did it! ahhhhhh....

4. Then immediately after that while still working 40 hours a week I went back to school for massage therapy because I felt like I was missing out on this part of my life that I had originally moved to Seattle for.

5. We got in a really bad accident with and herd of on the toad side and I think this was a huge impact on our relationship. This marked a huge turning point with us. We are together today because of this event in our lives. It showed us what our true feelings and thoughts were. TOGETHER FOREVER

6. As we were doing school we cleaned up my husbands credit and got it better than mine...ha! My husband got a house building software for our computer and for 2 years we fiddled with it in our computer. In 2008 we finally built the house of our dreams!
