I have been enjoying doing so many projects around the house the last couple of weeks. I have some pictures of some makeovers. One piece I remodeled for my bathroom I had a while and it needed to be freshened up. It became a ton more useful too. The flour hole has necklaces hanging in it.
The boys both have had their birthdays in the last two months. Rob is 15 and Lewis is 9. They both had AirWalk parties. Really there wasn't much difference between the two parties, the boys were just bigger at the 15 year old one. Rob got his permit on the first try, guess that mean I have to let him drive right?
Clara was elected best all around girl on her team at the middle school. It was announced at the dance and she had a great time with her friends before the dance. They all looked so pretty.
Tracy, her mom and I went on an excursion to Gadsden, Boaz and Attala. We found some friendship pyrex and a cool picture that was found in an old house in Mississippi. They were cleaning out an old house and found it hanging on the wall. When they removed it there was a hole in the wall that it was covering. Emma Kate's Cottage is where I found it, it was such a cool place and such great service too.
We loved getting to see my sister Sarah and her family this weekend. They came for a wedding and we got to keep the little love muffin in the pictures.

| This is Lewis's Valentines box, same child who just read Moby Dick (abridged version) made this...... |
 |
| Let's just say there was no question who made it, no parental help with this one. It was supposed to be about a book and his was Holes. |
