The idea to create this Hot Air Balloon Quilt has been in my mind since I was looking through blogs and saw one with a gorgeous nursery decorated using hot air balloons (of course I can’t find the link right now…I will post it if I do…).  My initial roadblock to creating this quilt was […]

I know!  Can you believe it!  I am actually done reorganizing my craft area…I never thought it would happen.  I usually get about 1/2 done and then get too distracted by other projects.  This time I really stuck to it and my quarter of the basement looks great (I haven’t created anything in yet though…) […]

Along with millions and millions of others, one of my new years resolutions is to lose weight.  Of course.  So, how do I plan on doing that?  With weight watchers, the Prairie Athletic Club and Hungry Girl.

I just have a quick update on a few things I don’t want to forget.  (I’m using this blog as a mini scrap book/memory keeper).  Cedi’s new favorite song when she’s riding in Papa’s truck is ‘BORN in the NEW SA! I took Cedi to her first movie in a theater on January 1st and […]

I have tried not to do double posts in my blogs but this is just too cute to not share with the ‘mom’s’ that may read this blog and not my others…Did you grow up spending hours of fun imagining a new world with your paper dolls? Now here’s the perfect opportunity for your daughter, […]

Here’s the newest addition to my quilt collection: Love is In the Air – Hot Air Balloon Quilt from KimsCraftyApple Gooseberry Mini Light Boxes-Paper Origami Box Frame With Printed Art-Hot Air Balloon from GooseberryLightBoxes  Old Fashioned […]
