What I've been up to...

If you're wondering why you never hear form me anymore... it's because I've been busy!!! Doing what you ask...

~Cleaning out
Can you believe my mom found my 'POGS' up in the attic... and gave them to me... as if I wanted them!!! The sad thing is, I let them sit around my house for a month or so... feeling like I shouldn't just throw them away. Last night I decided I had to look through them and make sure there weren't any really cool ones I might want to keep. I find it hilarious that I really struggled to throw them away... what am I going to do with pogs??? How does Rich put up with me?? You'll be happy to know they finally made it to the trash... except the one that looked like a no smoking sign, but instead had SIN written in the middle... Rich thought that one was funny so he kept it.

~Decorating
I'm always looking for the right pieces to use for decorating in our house. I don't just go out and buy stuff... and browse a lot, and only buy when I find the perfect piece for a great price! I knew I wanted to hang a large picture in our living room, and new it needed to be a picture of nature. While Rich and I were at IKEA we found these awesome frames for $24.99!! When we got home with it, Rich insisted that the only pictures allowed in the frame would be pictures taken with my new camera... so for now, we're looking at the top of a corn stalk :).
~Crafting!
I've found some great crafting blogs lately and have had so much fun creating (copying) their crafts! I found these super cute baby booties here and so I sewed up a few to give as gifts. I gave these pair to that cute baby I talked about holding at the scrap party... and made a couple of boy ones for my nephew who should be making his grand entrance in just 6-7 weeks!


~Packing
Ok, so technically I haven't started packing... but I've been thinking about it and preparing for it! I've actually been cleaning and doing laundry, but the packing should hopefully start tonight! If I don't post at you tomorrow... I'll have a great time on my trip and tell you all about it when I return!!!
