Craft weekend project. Sadly this cute hat and witch letter set doesn’t belong to me 🙁 I made it for my Mom (because I am awesome like that). The cute bats can be yours if you enter our giveaway!! We’re lucky enough to live close to a place called The Wood Connection. They have the…
stain remover – carpet – seriously amazed!
I should start this post by letting you know that when we bought this house it had new carpet, it’s been nearly 5 years and since I am pretty sure it was the worlds cheapest carpet and we have 7 kids it is awful (we have new carpet plans just need to get it done)….
Halloween Wreath – 1st Halloween decoration to go up this year
To gear up for my 24 hour craft day I sat up Thursday night and completed my 1st new decoration for the year. During my blog hopping I came across the CUTEST wreath I’ve seen. Jenni Roseland shows you how she made hers here. One of the things I have to admit that drew me…
Bedroom Before – Little Miss’s Room
So, THIS is the baby’s bedroom. It has need of some help. It isn’t *awful* I mean, she is the 7th child 🙂 It could be worse, her bedroom could be a closet right? She’s pretty lucky to have her own room and I can’t wait to get it done. Anyway – here are some…
My Fall Decor – Living Room

Re-purposed/refinished dressers for the boy’s room
SO, the boy’s bedroom is coming along. I’ve showed you their beds, their desk (which I still love so so so much), and even told you about the frustration I ran into with their nightstands. Today I have another 2 pieces of their room to reveal. Their dressers! These dressers are kind of interesting. They…
Mary Poppins the Musical Play
Today I was blessed with the opportunity to go with my older 3 little girls along with all my nieces on Nate’s side of the family, my sister, my sisters in law and my Mother in law to go see Mary Poppins. I cannot even begin to explain how wonderful it was. Honestly, there aren’t…
Chocolate Cake Batter Cookies
Some of you may remember the recipe I posted in July for Hawaiian Snowballs. Those were some yummy cookies made from cake batter. Again in desperate need for an after school snack idea, I’ve turned to my trusty cake batter cookie recipe again! This time I used a chocolate cake batter. I modified the recipe a…
Boy’s bedroom re-do = FRUSTRATION!!
Just when things were really starting to go well disaster has struck! First we had the boy’s beds that aside from the little *missing paint can incident* turned out fantastic and I am so excited about them. Then we had their desk that makes me so happy with the result I can’t help but smiling when I…
