I'm so Excited......

actually, I'm so tired! But I am all done with the Quilt! Hopefully Shane won't be checking our blog in the next week. Shane went hunting today so I figured I better bust out the quilt frames & get to work. It is now 12:54 am and I am all done! It feels so good not to have to think about that now! YIPEE!! I'll post more of it when he opens it on his B-day! I think for now I'm going to BED!

A lunch Reunion....

I worked for a Dr. in Boise about 10 years ago. I made some good friends & made even better memories working with them. We got together for lunch & had such a great time laughing & talking about some HiLarIOus times! Thanks for a fun time everyone!

tHe RaCe Is On !!

Shane's birthday is only 3 weeks away & he's been asking for a huge denim quilt for quite a while so I thought I'd try to pull it off. We'll see, I told him he might have to wait until Christmas for that gift. All I know is I've been storing a ton of old jeans in my exercise room for a good year now. It will be nice to see them gone. So I wanted the girls to be involved in helping and this is how are night went! Shane was in & out all day so Bailey made this great sign for the door! Since the girls couldn't do much I told them they could have all the scraps. Boy did they LOVE that idea. Bailey started to use my sewing maching while I was out ironing......UH I don't think so Bailey!!
Brik even was in on the action. I got my fabric glue out and he thought he'd glue a rag to the back of some denim & make a ghost.....yikes!
Bailey was making something for her craft store! :0)
Oakley made a bat!
Mackenzie actually did help me, she was ironing all the squares!
After 74 big squares & 88 little squares all sewn into 4 piece blocks, (and by the way they all matched up sooo good, i was impressed with my skills) I was ready to call it quits for tonight. But here's all the fun stuff the kids came up with! We had a great time! It reminded me of when my Mom used to let us "craft" with her scrap material & even the pattern scraps. We thought we were pretty good seamstresses. Those were some fun times!

Twinkle Twinkle......

This is Berkley's new Favorite song, she has been singing it everywhere.

Two new BaBy GiRLs!!!

Shane's brother Travis & Mindy had their first GIRL, after 4 Boys..Yippee!! Jersey Marie Royce. I am so excited that they get to experience a Baby Girl, I still can't believe it was a girl! Was a Sweetie!

My brother Ryan & wife DeAnna just had their 4th Girl! Shelby Layne Hadlock. I think she looks alot like my brother! She is such cutie! Can't wait to see her!

SCARRY!

Brik & Berkley were keeping themselves busy while I was catching up on the ironing from yesterday! They came down stairs and tried to scare me! They have become quite good buddies since the big girls are at School all day!

Couponing??

So I've been a tad bit busy, with a new found love for coupons! I can't believe all the good deals I must of been missing out on! Just a few of the great deals lately 32oz. powerade for 10 cents a bottle, hersey's milk chocolate chips 70 cents a bag, 60 cans of stewed tomatoes for FREE (i did have to pay tax), and a few others pretty darn good deals. Crazy uh? Shane thinks I'm going to get arrested for using coupons! Oh & I forgot about the 9 boxes of cereal I got for 9 cents. Oh & also the Electrosol box of 26 tabs for 9 cents each box! I was so proud of myself! Me, Natalie & Robyn have been keeping eachother in the loop as far as good deals go....let me know if you have an Albertson's near & I'll let you in on the bargains!!
