We built a compost bin this past weekend! Well, Shaun did most of the building. I helped by keeping him company in the garage in the middle of the night. AND I helped him move it, which was crazy because that thing is heavy. Here are the instructions he followed. It ended up being quite…
I finished up this drawing this weekend! I love how it turned out. Aren’t these two adorable? While hands are my least favorite thing to draw, hair is my favorite and this photo had lots of it! I had fun drawing her pretty, long hair. It made up for all of the hands! I’ll be…
I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day today. Our whole weekend was full of family-fun, the best kind of fun. I’m pretty exhausted. And yet for some reason, I’m still awake at 1:00am and I decided that I should post these awesome cupcakes before heading to bed. I seriously need to work on my…
Day 121 We got the second half of the garden planted today! We planted some radishes, zucchini, onions, sunflowers and watermelon! (And I might be forgetting a couple.) I’m excited about the watermelon, I hope it does well. That would be awesome! Juniper’s favorite part about gardening is getting to use the hose. (And Flynn’s…
I have a slight obsession with Hot Air Balloons. (I got that awesome print here.) I have this extremely vague memory from my childhood of not being able to ride in a hot air balloon because I was too little. I have no idea if that actually happened, it could very well have been a…
I have never been very good at drawing hands. They are so hard to get just right! And when you screw them up, even the slightest bit, it makes the person look REALLY WEIRD. So needless to say, I’m always glad when drawings don’t involve hands. The drawing that I am currently working on however,…
The first time I dyed my hair I was twelve years old. It was a rainy day, and my mom suggested we go to CVS and buy some hair dye. I was in sixth grade, and a lot of the girls at school would always complain about how their moms wouldn’t let them dye their…
About a month ago I decided that my craft room set up was just not working. I was having to dig through too many boxes and such to get all of the supplies I needed for any given project. And I’ll be the first to admit, I am dang lazy when it comes to putting…
Day 114 Today was pretty great. We spent the day at Ehren and Lindsay’s house for a BBQ celebrating Ehren’s graduation. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious, we got to see lots of friends and family, and all of the kids were in good moods all day! It was fun watching the littles…
I’m so sad right now! But not I’m-in-my-bedroom-crying-because-some-terrible-thing-happened sad. It’s more of a I-had-an-awesome-idea-that-someone-else-beat-me-to kind of sad. I had this post planned for the past couple of months and it was going to be awesome! But these folks beat me to it! That is how I eat cupcakes, and it is definitely the best way…
