Saturday and Sunday & This and That

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE

this idea for a small island in the

kitchen. 

I actually have a sewing machine like

this at mom's that I need to get

someone to help me drag over here.

Many, many years ago (many) my 

great granny gave it to my mom. 

I do not wish to take it apart for this

purpose below but I could make a wooded

piece to slide right over the top of the old

machine. 

There is thought!

HAHA...

I have a lot of those!

This morning it is a warm  cool

morning on the deck but at 8:15am

it is so nice. I have my furbabes

with me. One jumping here and there and

from one side of the deck to the other and 

one curled up next to me sleeping and snoring,

I will let you guess which is which!

Anyway, on the deck, camera by my side,

laptop in my lap and coffee within reach,

the birds are singing, no mowers running,

no kids playing....beautiful.

Here are a couple more cute laundry

room sayings that I found a few days ago.

I so need to make one of these for my

home!

Yesterday was a slow down day for me

so I tried to just rest and take it easy.

Tried napping on the deck but there

was too much going on around me

so I decided to do some painting.

My neighbors might run me out of the 

hood if I don't stop painting things!

HAHA

I worked on my stepping stones.

Dakota of course is never far from

me and here he is checking out

my work.

I got a tad carried away on this one,

I did some spatters on it!

On purpose of course.

A view from the deck!

I am calling this my 

Colorful Brick Rd to the 

shed look!

Sandra over at 

http://snapperone.blogspot.com/

is a friend on FB and she

loves the flower on the shed.

I painted that about 3 yrs ago and 

sealed it...looks as good as it 

did the day I painted it.

Although I know that sealing the 

stepping stones will not help all 

that much. They might not fade as fast

but walking on them and running

the mower over them will break it 

down faster. 

WHO CARES!

A worn look will look just as cute.

Yesterday while sitting on the deck 

I watched a couple of Chickadee's

visit Lily's feeder. The are eating yellow

cake! haha...had to get it out of the house.

Last weekend I went to my daughters house

to work on the boys bunk beds.

When they moved they lost some pieces

and since the new hubby knows nothing

about tools it took mom to fix things.

I told Amber this is what we needed to do

instead of me fixing them.

Then I saw this!

HAHA

Here are two of my boys.

This is Braden, a pic Amber

sent me of him after being at the 

ball park watching Will's son play ball

all day!

This is kid can walk from the house

to the car and start out clean, 

but by the time he gets to the car, dirt

has jumped all over him!

This is DJ. Our accident waiting to happen.

The day before he was walking and tripped

over Braden's scooter, DJ took a slide

across the asphalt on his face.

The life of boys!

HAHA I remember when I had my son and 

he was little, I told everyone I was so not

ready for a boy! Harder than dealing with a little

girl!

So how is your day going so far?
