Military...

I didn't have access to my computer yesterday so I could not post about something that I am so, so proud of and that is of my 2 sons who are currently serving our great country. I have one son in the Army and one in the Navy and I am so proud of the men that they have become. I am also so thankful to all the men and women who have served or are serving for their great sacrifices made for everyone's freedom. To my sons I miss you everyday but I am PROUD. To all in the services THANK YOU!

Weekends...

I love weekends, time to spend time with my family and play in my house. Right now I am getting ready for a pretty big project - I am going to remodel a tiny room into a nursery/craft/guest room! Woot-Woot!! Wish me luck! first tho I think I will go home and cuddle with these two to get some motivation!

Plate rack..

I have to admit that at one time I loved to just peruse many fantastic blogs and steal very clever ideas!! Therefore, now that I am actually living my own bloggy adventure I can't remember who I stole some of the most clever ideas that I have copied. So in advance I am going to apologize for not giving credit where credit is due. So here is one of the many projects that I have stolen, I mean borrowed :)! I made this plate rack out of my granddaughters crib and I love it and so does she. She thinks it is very funny that her bed is now on Nama's wall. LOL!

So beautiful...

Everyone really needs to run and check out the nativity set give away at The Best Mama Chef it is really so beautitul, especially if you are a collector! Good luck!

Sorry no pics of the how to. I made this a couple years ago but I really love it so I wanted to share: It is made of 3 half circles, 10 inches, 8 inches and 6 inches. The ten inch one has ten holes drilled in it for the suckers, the 8 inch has 7 and the 6 inch has 5. The turkey head is kind of shaped like an 8 that is about 2 1/2 inches wide and 3 1/2 inches tall. Clear as mud? He is loved by all, I have him on my desk at work and I am constantly refilling the suckers!!

Congrats...

Congrats to the Birthday Blog! 200 followers, woot-woot!! Hopefully I will be following in your footsteps!!

Family....

So obviously in my all about me segment I mention that I have a large family, with the hubs, our 8 crazy kids, and the 8 1/2 perfect grandkids. But, that is just the begginning of it. I also love, love animals so from time to time you might get to meet a few of my petlets!! I have 3 dogs and a granddog living with me, a kitten and a bunny. I love them all them make my home even more cozy!!

More of fall, just a little different angle!! More to follow!

So here it is my very first picture on bloggerland!! I am so excited! This is just a brief look at my indoor fall deco's.
