Lots of things going on....

  Well we are still busy with the house, the family room is all painted so it the bedroom. I am halfway done with the livingroom/dinning room. I love the color of our living room, it reminds me of chocolate milk, it makes me smile. Casey and I have been busy working, Casey worked 57 hours this last week. and I am still on a 7 days on 7 days off night shift for one more week. We don't see a lot of each other but we make time for each other at least a little bit in the day. We are going to see his family in Denver at the end of May which we are really excited about, we haven't seen his family since Dec, and we haven't seen his older sister and her family since the wedding. It will be good for casey to see them before he leaves. We are also going to Arizona at the middle of July, it was Casey's birthday present, He is SOOOO excited to go and see all of his friends.

Here is a close up of one, sorry the pictures aren't the best, I took them with my camera phone

  I have been working on a few sewing projects while I have been working on the house. I and almost done with the table topper I am making for my mother in-law, and I am making another one for a friend of mine. My newest craft I have been doing, is making flowers. I make them to put in your hair, on a shirt, on a bag where ever you want them to go. And they turn out so cute. Here are some pictures, I am going to be selling them which makes me really excited. I am going to start a little business selling my burp rags, and a few other things I make. Nothing big but I have been selling my burp rags at a local store and they are selling really well so I figured I would give them some place where if they wanted to buy other things they could order them online. Casey is working on my website and I have a friend that is working on my logo and some business cards, it will probably take me a little while to get up and running but I am excited. Other than that we are just going along, working and trying to make it from one day  to the next. Hope all is well with your families. Love to all!

We're moving....

Well I haven't been able to blog very much lately because I have been to busy with work, (I am working the graveyard shift 7 day on and then 7 days off for the next month and a half cause a girl had surgery) and we're moving!! YES you read that right we are finally moving. Not that we haven't appreciated that my parents have let us stay in their house rent free since November, but it will be nice to be on our own again. We are renting my grandma's old house, we have been working on it for the past week or so. We are tearing down most of the wall paper and painting it, putting up new light fixtures and stuff like that. Just so you all know, wall paper is of the devil and I HATE it! We started in the master bedroom thinking we would start small and work our way up cause there was only one wall in there that was wallpapered, and it had three closets on that wall so there wasn't much to take down. It can down so easily I was excited, thinking wow that came down way easier then I thought it would. Well we moved to the hall way and that is where I found out how much I hate wallpaper! I can't get it to come off to save my life, I have scored it, and then sprayed it with this special stuff and it still won't come off. So I spray it with water let it sit for a little while and then it peels off in itty bitty pieces. Therefore that is why we still haven't started to paint even after working on it for over a week. :(  But we are totally excited to be moving, and I love to do renovations and I love to decorate so I am getting excited for the decorating part. I have pictures but I am at work right now and can't download them so I will do that sometime this week showing our progress and at the end we'll do before and after pictures. Hope everyone had a happy Easter, and I hope all is well with your families. Love to all!
