lately

i'm lacking in post material because i've been swimming in projects (but this also means a flood of posts is on the way). having stevie home makes me feel like a free woman and i've been cramming in as much as i can before school starts again. like:

finally making a girly bedroom for havey (she's been sleeping in a portacrib in the basement. rather depressing, don't you think?)

reading the saffron kitchen

making valentine's decor

shopping at DI (i'm averaging 3 trips a week and some seriously good finds)

working on the house (painting, redecorating, reorganizing...this could be an entire list in itself)

prepping for bunco-it's my first time to host!

awaiting a visit from my parents & my long lost bestie

awaiting the delivery of my christmas/birthday present...

hooray! thanks for the shout out. can't wait. let the countdown begin! when are your parents coming?

The DI is my parents favorite place to go. My Dad hits it everyday. Most of the employees know my Mom's name. I try to remind them the store is for people who can't afford the regular store prices but they keep going. I tell them once they die most of their stuff will go right back where they got it. Be careful--it's obviously addictive

talk about taking advantage while the hubs is around! can't wait to eye your DI finds. in fact, i do believe you have inspired me to take a trip this afternoon- in honor of your big day of course.

happy birthday!!

I have so many to catch up on too! Which DI do you like best around here? (Yes, I said HERE ... we're finally in UT!) I'm always up for a bargain.

oh you will love your new camera! I have the rebel xt, and don't know if I could ever go back to a point and shoot! Have fun!

I can't wait to see pictures of these said projects. You are one crafty lady! I wish I was that productive while Sean was around.
