Preparing my Craft Room

I started working on my scrap room this weekend. Saturday we moved Tanner into his new room. I am still waiting for the rest of his wallpaper to get here. It should be here within the next three weeks. I tore off all of the construction border, painted, and hung the bottom half wallpaper. In the picture below it is not completely dry yet.

Here is one completed area of my scrap room.

And here is my border close up. This border was really hard to hang. I was able to hang one whole roll at a time. I got one hung, walked to the other end and the whole strip fell to the floor. It did not have much glue on the back so I ended up having to apply some Elmers glue to it. That seemed to help.

I have almost three rolls left over so I am planning on cutting out all of the hearts and hanging them as a border on the top of my walls.

I will post more as I am moving my supplies in.

Yard Work

What a beautiful day to be alive. I think it was about 67 degrees outside. We were finally able to open the windows. The guys were outside today doing yard work and Tanner loves driving the lawn mower. He thinks it's cool and that he is big like his dad. He is so cute.

My Craft room is well on it's way I will post some pictures tomorrow.

Naughty Dog

Good Morning to all.

I hope everybody had a better morning than I did.

This is what I woke up to this morning. And let me tell you it is not the first time.

I think it is time the dog goes for a looong ride to the shelter.

He started in thr garbage in thr kitchen and ended in the livingroom.

P.S. Becky would you like to trade messes?

Happy 6th Birthday Tanner!

Friday was Tanner's 6th Birthday already. Time is flying by so fast. For Tanner's birthday treat at school I took a bunch of cut up fruit and the kids loved it. After school Tanner opened up his gifts then we went out to eat at the olympia restaurant.

On Saturday Tanner had 12 friends come over for a birthday party. We played lots of games, ordered pizza, had some punch, ate cake, and opened presents. The kids had a blast. And let me tell you the noise level was off the charts. WOW! As a thank you to all the kids I bought sand buckets and filled them with bubbles, squirt guns, flarp, and jump ropes. Plus the kids won kites, more bubbles, bracelets and a bunch of other toys as they were playing games. Tanner said it was his best birthday ever. It was fun but very exhausting.

I really need a new camera !

Painted Bedroom

Wow, It sure has been a long time since I posted. I have been so busy. We are still on 50+ hours at work. We repainted and wallpapered our bedroom. I needed to make it a bit more relaxing. I think it turned out pretty good. I need to find the perfect curtains now. And for the record my husband did the painting with a double roller and two colors. He did a great job.

I still have a lot of painting to do in my house. Scott moved his room downstairs. I was going to paint and wallpaper but he is not sure yet how he wants it done.

Tanner is moving in Scott's old room and wants it done in nothing else but "JOHN DEERE." I have ordered wallpaper and border it should be here be the end of the week. I will post pics. when it is complete.
