Valentine's...

I didn't post last week on Valentine's Day but I had a great one!! Morgan sent me some beautiful flowers, which was delivered with a box of chocolates but me and Leigh ate most of them before I thought to take a picture of it) and he also gave me a Cricut for Valentine's and a early birthday present!! I was super excited! He knew that I had have been wanting one...I may have mentioned one, two or 50 times! Ha! But he listens pretty well, most of time! : )

Snow Day!!!

When the Mickey Fergerson (Weatherman on Fox 6 news out of Birmingham) first started talking about the snow we might get, I didn't believe him! We have had a few other days this month when snow was in the forecast and all we saw was sleet and ice, which is NO FUN! So I have been sick with bronchitis and sinus infection this week and went to doc yesterday to get two shots and some anitbiotics! So when when came and got me out of bed this morning to tell me to go look at the snow, I didn't really feel like it but I didn't want to miss out! My sister, Mary, was already outside riding the boogie board down the hill in our backyard, I had to join in! I got all bundled up and went and played in the snow for a little bit! We have a chocolate lab, Gunner. He DID NOT like the boogie board. I have attached videos of Me and Mary going down the hill and Gunner was having a fit! Ha! He even bit a chunk out of the board.

Snow in the front yard!

 Gunner didn't know what to think about the snow, this was he first real snow to play in!

Me and Gunner! : )

 Sick but still had to act like a kid when it snows...doesn't happen very often in Alabama!

 Me, Mary and Gunner!

 

More Cupcakes..

So the last picture I posted I took of the GiGi's cupcakes I was supposed to take to Kaley and Courtney and I kinda forgot them when I left home! Opps! So I went back tuesday and bought somemore...this time I got two red velvet, one wedding cake and one birthday surprise. They were all WONDERFUL!! My favorite was the wedding cake!!

YUMMY....

If you haven't been to GiGi's cupcakes in Midtown...you need to go!! Even though I waited in line for 30 minutes, it was well worth it! These are 3 wedding cake cupcakes and one champagne cupcake! : ) There are many flavors I would like to try, go see all them for yourself at GiGi's!!

Lost Socks??

You ever wash clothes and when you are folding them you come up with a odd number of socks?? Ha! Well, we do around our house so I found this idea on another blog and I just had to make one for our laundry room. I have listed the materials and steps below you will need to make it, except for the letters to say "Lost Socks"....I haven't gotten to this step yet, I have to cut my letters out, but when I do I will just use mod podge to put them on!! I will post a picture once I do that.!


Materials:
-Wood board (I found mine in the craft section at wal-mart, I think around 2-3 dollars)
-Paint ( I used acrylic)
-Paint brush -I used a foam brush
-clothes pins - as many as your board will hold, I used 8
-Cardstock or scarpbook paper
-mod podge
-glue gun
-ribbon
-stapler

Steps:
1. First you will paint the board the color of your choice
2. While you are waiting on your board to dry and to see if you need a second coat, get out your clothes pins and cardstock paper
3. Measure the length and width of the clothes pins and start cutting out our strips of card stock.
4. Put a layer of mod podge onto the top of one of the clothes pin
5. The place a strip of your cardstock on top of the mod podge
6. Then put another layer on top of the cardstock, sit aside to dry
7. Repeat steps 4-6 for all of your clothes pins
8. Once your board and clothes pins are dry, use a small dab of hot glue on the back of the clothes pin and place on the board where you want it. (I like things even and symmetrical so I place my two middle ones first and then worked outwards)
9. Now cut a strip of ribbon according to the size of your board, mine that I used was about a 18inches.
10. Staple the ribbon to the back of the board.

T-shirtI

I also made a t-shirt for Mack today too...I get all my fonts off of microsoft word, I just print, cut, trace and cut again. Pretty easy, but I really want a cricut!! Maybe I will get one for my Birthday! : )

More baby stuff....

I made baby Mack a few bibs today, I found them at Wal-Mart..6 to a pack, all different colors! I used fabric and wonder under just like I did on the onesies. Here are the 3 I made today....
