Ok....I have to apologize first for the crappy pictures. I promise they are cuter in real life. These pictures were taken on a super dark day...hence the white balance being TOTALLY off, and the super photoshopping. Yikes, I am kind of embarassed. Learn from me, never take photos on a dark day (unless you have a post to finish for tomorrow and you are scrambling....then you will get something like the following. Argh.) As I said before, all of our boys needed shorts. So, I got busy for ... View the Post
Start of Our Boys week–Peggies
Peg dolls are not just for girls anymore.....I have to brag about Liz for a minute. She came up with this idea and gave these to Aaron for Christmas last year. She knows that Aaron loves Harry Potter and Star Wars and let me tell you they are a favorite toy around here.So, if you need an airplane or car toy for vacation this summer, I highly suggest some painted peggies in your boy's favorite characters. They are definitely going on vacation with us (we have a long car ride ahead of us ... View the Post
The Art of Homemaking—A Chart For All Specimens
Yesterday I posted a tutorial on how to make this: A "Cereal Specimen Chart" that I made for my husband for Father's Day.

SO it really was a perfect gift.But as I was making it I thought how it could be made differently to fit what other Dad's might like. For instance what if you had a dad who loves candy? You could ...

A Fun Father's Day Idea: A Cereal Specimen Chart If there is one thing in this world my husband loves (besides me and the kids of course) it's cereal. The man REALLY loves his cereal. In fact, he would be happy eating cereal for all 3 meals everyday for the rest of his life. Seriously. So awhile ago when I saw a menu with actual pieces of cereal glued onto it I started thinking how I could adapt that into something funny for my husband. This is what I came up with: "The Cereal Specimen ... View the Post
Thrifted Thursday: Gracie’s Summer Sun Suit
Hey! So, welcome to our second week of Thrifted Thursdays. Let's get started.Awhile back I bought a Strawberry Shortcake sewing pattern for a sun suit. (It cost $0.25 and came from the basement of someone selling off boxes her aunts old patterns. What a find!)Then a few weeks later I saw over on Kojo Designs a series on coloring your summer. For some reason that series got me to thinking about the summers of my childhood. All those memories were filled with warmth, and sunsets, and the smell of ... View the Post
It’s all about the boys.
In honor of Father's Day this week...and because there is always an unequal amount of girl projects that are going on around here, Liz and I decided to spend a few days (we'll see how many) next week focusing on our boys. Mostly because they all need new shorts, and a little bit of extra attention in the sewing, crafting department.So, here we go.And we need a cleverer name. Any suggestions? BTW, we got hacked this week. (That's probaly not the right term...) But some complete idiot decided ... View the Post
