Birthday

Well it was a real quiet one for me. We went to the fair, which I LOVE the fair so that was nice. The fair here is HUGE. But it was really lacking in the arts and crafts section of the fair. I am definitely going to do a few outfits for this time next year. Someone needs to show them that the crochet stuff does not have to be all grannyfied (that is a new word.) The girls got to watch the Rhinestone Ropers. THey preformed at Michael Anderson last year as an asembly and they are awesome. I think their fair show is even more impressive. He did some awesome stuff with his horse. I was very impressed with his abilities and the horses too. We came home and had homemade ice cream and cake. I think I am going to head to Jo Anns and see if I can pick up one more thing to finish off a wall in my house and then home to relax. I love having all this space but I seriously need to entertain and am itching so bad to get to it. Maybe tomorrow I will invite a family over after church for some ice cream sundaes. Loves to all.

My wish list

Now this is by no means a buy these exact thing list. I figured I would gives some basic ideas and you can run from there. I am really getting into the shabby chic look for my kitchen. As you noticed in a previous post I have gotten a few things but I have a few more things I would love to have. These are just few. I like the white and the decorative look. I am also into anything that would go with my new Iphone. I really could use a case and I would absolutely love a docking station at home with speakers so I could use it here. Plus, my music was lost in our hard drive crash so an Itunes gift card would be absolutely WONDERFUL!!!! Now I also love my Cricut and I have a ton of cartidges that I would love to have. The ones I am posting here are ones I don't have and ones that I would like to someday own. I am puting them in the order, with the most wanted on top. PLEASE DON"T THINK THIS IS AN HAVE TO GET ME LIST! THIS IS JUST SUGGESTIONS OF THINGS THAT I AM INTO RIGHT N...

LOVE CRAIGSLIST

Since the new house has a room for each of the girls we ran into a slight problem. Basically how do you make two beds into three and one dresser into three. So I jumped on Craigslist this morning and found two twin size mattresses for $10 each and then another person had 2 box springs for $5 for both. I also found two dressers, nice ones at that for $20 and $40. So I furnished two rooms for $85. We already have a twin bed frame. So I figured I will keep my eyes open for another twin bed frame and keep the bunk beds together so that we have a spare bed for visitors. YES, I expect everyone to come stay with us at least once, we are the cool people. Kalaree is going to refinish (paint) one of the dressers and the bed frame that we have now for her beehive project. How cool is that. Not only does she now have a dresser but she also now has her beehive project to do. WOO HOO!!!!! I am really quite proud of myself to get all this stuff for such a great price and now I don't have to worry...

LOVE craigslist.

I was doing my usual cruise through craigslist tonight when I stumbeld upon a find. A family in a neighboring town is moving and needed to get rid of their loveseat. Slightly sunfaded is how they discribed it but it was free. Well to my surprise when I scrolled down to look guess what I found.... Yup the exact match to our living room set. It is sunfaded, it even looks purple in spots. But hey ours is not in the best of shape either so who cares. So now we finally have enough seats in our living room to have everyone sit without someone being on the floor or a kitchen chair.
