The Little Girl's Room

I went through the 3-year-old girl's clothes and got her warm weather clothes out.

This is what I'm taking to the D.I.

 And I've had pictures waiting to be hung for about a year in her room.

 I got that taken care of too!

 The picture of the little girl is one from my college days that I love.

I love the feet even more.  One of them is hers and the other one is her twin brother's!

E6000

I just bought my first tube of E6000 and put it to work.

It's permanent and flexible and thick (not like runny super glue).

I have three of these in my house

that now look like this...

And I used two candlestick holders from an estate sale

along with two glass plates from the D.I.

and made these...

 (I tried to get a picture of these with the cookies and brownies on them,

but I wasn't fast enough!)

Mother's Day Flowers

I got a new toy a while ago.

It's a scoring tool/board made by Stampin Up!

I played with it this weekend by making

these cute flowers to put in a pack of petunias 

for each of the mothers who came to my house 

for Mother's Day.

Love you all!

No More Piggies!

Two of my boys got guinea pigs about a year go.

They were fun for a while

and then they were neglected.

I have a friend whose blog I was looking at who was looking to get a pet rat.

I emailed her and asked if two adorable, free guinea pigs would work.

She agreed.

And on Tuesday, I took them to their new home.

Look at all of the attention they're getting now.

I'm thrilled and I'm sure that they are too!

Shower Steps

My mother-in-law was in need of a ramp or steps to get into the shower.

I have a little experience with homemade physical therapy devices so I went to work.

Here's what I started with...

Here's the progress...

And here's what I came up with...

Hopefully it's just what she needs!

No More Mud

I didn't get a before picture of this something

so just imagine a dirt/mud spot in the middle of the grass.

We let kids cut through our yard to get to the school

and that hasn't helped the situation.

I'm hoping that these

will help.

I'm also hoping that I can get grass to grow around them!

Lots of Case Lots

There have been great sales at the grocery stores around here lately.

It's always fun to get a good deal,

but then I have to put it all away.

A well-stocked food storage room makes me smile!
