Here I am

I have been busy with lots of things lately!  My MIL passed away, we are moving into a new house, trying to get kids into new school..seems to all happen at once!!  We have been packing away and will be moving on the 10th!  We are all excited,the kids are kind of dreading a new school...but excited too. I have been trying to get over a horrible cough and that seems to be getting better! 

We have a few things to do this week to get ready for the move and everything. But for right now I am taking my time and keeping busy with the daily things and getting some packing done. 

Mollie has 2 teeth and is getting so big!  She is such a stinker. Kaylee and Nolen are growing like crazy and loosing teeth left and right..keeping the tooth fairy busy and broke..lol

I cant wait to get pictures of the new house and post them

Moving Day

Well seems we are moving...things have went very quick and all of a sudden!  We found a nice 4 bedroom perfect for our family of 5!  Have been busy with this and other things...will be back later!!

Thankful

I'm having a Thankful Friday today...Just because I am feeling thankful for my wonderful Husband who works hard for us, thankful for my 3 wonderful kids, and thankful for the little things we have..like a home..its nothing fancy..its just home.  Our Health..all 5 of us are healthy and happy..and that's all that matters!  We don't have to have fancy things to be happy..we live a pretty normal and simple life!  And we have each other..and that's all that matters!!

Wordless Wednesday

My First Before and After

OK..so here is my first before and after!  It took me long enough..but I think i finally got it to my liking! 

I found this old table at my Favorite Antique store for 5 bucks!  It was COVERED in chippy black paint and after HOURS of trying to peel it all off..I gave up!  It stayed in our room until a couple days ago and I decided I would try to salvage it! 

Before:

The After:

Not to bad!  I still need to put a glaze over it. I like it in the Kitchen, of course this is the ONLY spot I can put it..over the vent..so we will see how that goes!  I also got everything on the table from thrift stores!  The little bird candle holder was 50 cents, the glass jar was 1.00, the silver bowl was 1.00 and has a matching ppiece to it without a pedestal. And the picture was 2.00 and I LOVE IT..its all cross stitch and the colors are perfect for what I want to use in my kitchen!

BTW..Over look the dirty looking floor...its my kitchen floor and still needs sanding..that's not dirt, but old stain/paint from years ago that even a drum sander had problems getting up!  Happy 4th to everyone, have a fun and safe day!!
