There's grout in that thar tile!

We now have grout in our tile and it looks great! I can't wait to post on here the final result. I'm married to the best handyman in the world. Now if we could only get the kitchen sink to stop springing leaks every time we turn around. :) I'm all for replacing the whole dang thing and I know just the the guy for the job. :)

Here is the tile master hard at work. You can't see it in the picture, but he's wearing a pair of old DCU pants (Desert Camo for those who don't know what that means). I'm so proud of him and the tile looks awesome. I now don't mind the cabinets as much as I did. Now I'm thinking with the new tile that the bathrooms need a bit of sprucing. Who's in for a visit to Target? Oh yeah!

While I'm at it, here are some other cool things to show off.



This is an awesome spit up and drool rag from the Kiss & Koos baby line created by my very talented SIL, Julie. There are several rings on here, one holds a pacifier while a large ring links onto a car seat. I love the multi use of this ubber ubber cute baby item. If you notice the cloth part, its double sided so cute flannel flowers on one side and super soft green fabric on the other.


These double sided burp rags from Kiss & Koos are flannel on one side and terri cloth on the other. I love these because the terry cloth is very good at soaking anything up. You can get them personalized too! Mine have Sarah's name on them. There are also a few more with sayings like, "Mommy's Miracle and "Daddy's Princess".



My MIL bought a bassinet for Sarah and then proceeded to remake the entire thing. With out a pattern she made this super cute frilly bassinet cover and a place for storage under neath. There are three layers of fabric. Besides the pink gingham and bright green, there is a pattern of glittery dragon flies. This will be next to our bed for the little lady every night for the first bit.

More pictures to come. I do have quite a creative family so I just have to show them all off. My mom embroidered burp rags and my sister already scrap booked my AZ baby shower. How awesome is that?!

While I've shared all this cute stuff with you, I would be remiss in sharing with you some other things as well. As some of you know on my side bar you have been able to keep up with Stellan and his previous very serious heart condition (God miraculously healed, Praise Him!) and Audrey's blog about her family to keep us updated as she has gone to be with Jesus yet still glorifies Him with her beautiful memory. Well, I have another blog for you to visit that all our prayers and support banded together may both heal a beautiful little girl and glorify God. Abby was diagnosed last July with leukemia and now is going through a very serious form of chemotherapy. This beautiful life needs our prayers. Please join the fight.

DIY Day a bracelet and another Frenchh Memo Board

Image
This week, I have two DIY projects. This is a faux pearl bracelet I made last week for a friend. It is a three strand bracelet. I couldn't really say how I did it though. I can say it has taken me a while to get the nack of jewelery making. One thing I have sufficiently gotten the nack of is this French Memo Baord thing. Here is a magnetic one I made for my fridgerator out of left over scraps from the window from last week . For the month of September, all my DIYs will be giveways. Atleast one will be...well, a guest DIY and a giveway by my SIL over at Read Be Tween the Lines. My sister, Candy and Ladybugs has a picture in her side bar of her latest crosstiching (did I spell that right? My spell check didn't catch it but I don't think thats how it is spelled) project. Its pretty sweet. Check their blogs out on my side bar of my favorite blogs. I've found so many new favorite blogs, I need to update that list. Add that to my to do list. :) Update: Happy To Design...

My second greatest creation!

Image
I did it, I really did it. I've never done something to at this scale of work. It took me many hours but I did it. I am so proud of this DIY project. My first DIY Day! I would be remiss in mentioning that this little beauty is my best DIY and that handsome man there, well, he just melts my heart and fortifies it all at the same time. Here is the plain old dirty six paned window I have been hauling with me every where since I found it a few years ago at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. I had it done up before but that was a novice's attempt at crafty. I knew when I saw the other crafty DIY projects floating around the blogosphere that I would need to get serious in order to play with the big dogs. Good thing all you blogger peeps were also my inspiration. ;) With out further adue . Did I spell that right. I need to learn French. Not really. I'm so doing this on purpose. Ok , here it is..... Three French Memo Boards, one cork board, one pane for a grocery list and ...

Inspiration

So, I am reading this book, $100 Startup by Chris Guillebeau. I'm not planning on starting a business or anything. Its just super inspirational. I like inspirational people. I have this friend, Kathrine who is the best sewing person, sewer or whatever you call it in the whole world. When inspiration strikes, she sews stuff.  I think that is freaking awesome. I have friends who have passions and they just go for it. Love it! My brother, Justin wanted to design toys. He did it. My brother and sister in love, Scott and Laura wanted to start a youth horse ranch. They are doing it. My husband was a sweet little country boy who wanted to go to the Air Force Academy. He did it. See the pattern? I like being inspired. So $100 Startup is a book full of people who find themselves not so much in a career or really intending to make it big but they just start down a path and do what they love. I asked a musician I know where he dreams of playing someday. He said that he just wanted...
