I'm taking my own pictures....

Yesterday my daughter came home from school and handed me this piece of paper. I looked at it, then look at it again. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Are you kidding me......prices on the school pictures have gone up and I mean UP.

Looks like we will be playing dress up and taking our own photos. I will get the cheapest package for $15 so she will have a few photos from school but I just can't bring myself to pay $50 just to get a package with a 8x10 in it......too much.

Okay, now that I am done fussing about prices......LOL....I hope everyone has a GREAT WEEKEND.

Oh Baby....!

I decided to feature a few etsy sellers today.....the theme....BABY!
There's a lot of Baby items over at Etsy. I hope you will check these sellers out.

I LOVE these little knit booties from Sheknitsamy. Don't they just make you say Awwww!

Now what little girl doesn't want her own little Tutu. Think of all the spins, twirls, and laughter this tutu would cause..... Check it out over at Mom2twogals.

Let's not forget about the little boys... I love this Chenille Bib and Burp Cloth Set over at GirlieBirdBoutique. This would make a great little baby shower gift.

**Happy Birthday**

Over the weekend I went to a birthday party for my niece. Today she turns Sweet 16 , I am wishing Miss Anna Maria a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Before and After

I am a little late blogging today.....! Sorry

So today after picking my daughter from school, we thought it would be nice to get a haircut. We normally have to fix it every morning....wash, dry, straighten, and spray. Ever since she was a baby she has had a head full of hair. BUT she has straight hair except for one spot...it's very wavy.

I use to be a hair stylist before my daughter was born. My good friend Karen and I use to own our own hair salon, I have been cutting hair since 1990. Long time...huh? I only do it at home now, mostly family.

But anyway, I cut her hair today. I love it, it's so much nicer. She loves it too! Maybe our mornings will go a little smoother......yeah right! !

Well Well Well.......

Just look who has learned to climb a tree! Sunday I caught Push Up in the tree twice.


Watch out birds......he's playing in the trees now!!

Happy Weekend!!

It's here! The weekend!
I hope each and everyone of you have a great weekend.

I will be spending the weekend with my hubby. Our daughter is going to stay the weekend with her best friend. We don't have many plans, just going to stay around the home and relax. I do have a 16th birthday party to go to on Sunday...I can't believe my niece is turning 16...yikes!

So with that said I will end this post with a few photos taken outside with our new camera.

The moon, My hubby took this one night....


This is a mushroom in our yard.....now where are my little blue smurfs???


This little grasshopper was so happy to have his picture taken.......

A man loves his tools

My husband loves tools.....we have spend many Saturday afternoons walking around Antique stores and Flea markets looking at old tools. I do enjoy it because I have come across a few old sewing notions and fabrics while out looking. We also love...LOVE finding old furniture.

Well, my hubby does furniture repairs and builds furniture on the side. Our dream would be he builds his business to where this is all he does and can work at home. Maybe one day!!

Over a year or so he has been wanting a spray gun.....not just a spray gun BUT the spray gun of all men's dreams. It's called the Critter Gun. It's a cute little thing....and I mean it's little. He stains and paints furniture so he wanted it because of the easy clean up because you use canning jars to hold the paint or stain. SO, this past Father's day, daughter and I purchased one for him. I have to say.....if you paint or stain large items.....it's well worth the price. He loves it.

Yesterday he was out in the workshop building a cabinet section for Mr. Bruce, and I caught him using the critter gun............he is a happy man!!



oops...he heard me.....:-)



One day I will have to post pics of items he has redone or build. He is my favorite handyman!!
