What was once lost now is found!

Before I tell you what has been found let me tell you about my laundry room. Well for the past 6 months or so the laundry room has been just kind of a catch all for whatever. And we have had this shelf for the long as well and I have been wanting DH to hang it for me but there just hasn't been time. So today I asked him pretty please could you hang the shelf. And he said yes he would so it is so nice to have everything put where it belongs here is the after shot.

Here is a sorta before shot I didn't think to take a picture until I was half done. But doesn't it look so much better?

Well there are a lot of things that are lost in this house but today DH was looking for his Fly tying books that his grandpa gave him. I know they are here they are just put up somewhere real good. But anyway while he was searching he found the old nintendo that my family had from probably before I was born. Oh I don't know how old it is but it is pretty old. But I was excited and big brother loved it so much he played duck hunt for quite a while. Now I am off to finish cooking granola. Love you all tons.

6 more weeks of winter!

Yesterday was groundhog day. I didn't even remember until DH came home from work. Every year DH Family gets together and watches the movie Groundhog day. We all love it. All the adults watch the movie while the kids run around the house. There were 2 two year olds there, one of them being my own. They were happy because no one was really paying attention to them. They got into everything. The most destructive thing they got into was Grana's Pero bottle and dumped it on the floor and scattered it everywhere. I guess that is what we get for watching a movie and not paying attention to the little ones. It was a great party we had popcorn with hot tamales mixed in MMMMMMmmm.
Here are a couple of projects if am working on. I am attempting to build a grandmothers flower garden quilt. But at the moment i have lost my template to cut out more hexagons so that project is on the back burner for a little while. I am determined to finish it though. Then there is the fabric covered tin, my mother gave this tin thinking I could us it for something. So I covered it in fabric and filled it full of coffee stained cheese cloth witch kind of looks like dirty tissue but it looks great tied onto primitive stuffs. And then the third picture is of a pincushion I made. I found the pattern over at the The pickled pepper patch. It is supposed to go on a wide mouth mason jar but i haven't found the right jar yet. When i find it will post it. Everyone have a great day love you all!!!

snow play





Well last week after an awesome storm. DH and The little ones went out side and made a snow man. They had such a good time. The sun was shining so they stayed warm. DH was sweating. I got to go out and help put the body and head on because it was too big for DH to do on his own. They had fun eating snow and rolling up the snow man. I do love the snow it is beautiful. Unfortunately We didn't get the snowman arms or any other accessories because DH was called on a fire so our snowman is arm less:(
