IS THAT WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO SAY?

I WAS PUTTING UP THESE CUTE LITTLE LETTERS MY FRIEND SHAYLA GAVE ME.

I PUT THEM NEXT TO MY WEDDING PICTURE

I WAS PUTTING UP EACH LETTER AS I GRABBED IT FROM THE CLOSET WHEN RICHAEL SAYS....."UM IS IT SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT?" i TOOK A STEP BACK AND SAW THIS....

WE BOTH BUSTED OUT LAUGHING. TOO FUNNY. 

Valentines + Dad= Ice cream cake

Once upon a time Dad brought an ice cream cake home to 5 girls for valentines day.  We all LOVED and Fought over it for the couple days it actually lasted.

Once upon a time Dad dug himself a pit...because we have expected one every year since.

THis year was no exception.  Dad came through just like always. We love him for it!

Thanks for the Valentine Dad! loves. RONNIE

Valentines Decor

Here is the Valentines decor I so creatively came up with. lol.  I needed a filler so I threw this little dilly together and I laugh everytime someone starts to read it.  lol.  NOt sure how to turn this picture right side up.

Dropcloth Curtains

I didn't even plan on putting curtains up in the house but much to my surprise Richael said we needed some.  So I started trying to find curtains that I actually liked and there were VERY few that I liked.  I finally came across some in a magazine that I liked and I figured I could just stencil the design on there.  Then I went to JOJO my so savy friend for a sewing consultation on how to make it work and she told me about drop cloth curtains.  You buy a huge drop cloth for painting and cut it up, stencil and whoala!
It was more work than planned but super cheap and I still have enough material to do my other window.  I couldn't find an exact stencil of what i wanted but rolled across this one and made it work. I have my flaws but I pretend to not notice them. The nice thing is when I get tired of them I am only out about 12 bucks.  Still havent decided what I want to tie them back with...I am open to suggestions.  Anyhow... love a good affordable DIY project and this one saved me LOTS o money.

Why you should marry a tomboy.

                                                

 So HERE is the reason you should marry a tomboy...you get KICKA gifts from your wife. While everyone else is tryin to fake their smile while they put on their new sweater ....this guy gets to play with his new tools! 
  I got these jacks for Richael about 4 months ago and hid them in the trunk of lucille. It was so hard waiting till Christmas to give them to him. I was so excited!  Richael has been talking about these forEVER now and of course they are 500 dollar gift so he assumed he would never get them.  So much to his suprise....I got him some! ( for a quarter of the price of course...cuz we aient rich).
  Here is a the longer unedited video of Richasl 2012 Christmas gift.

Before and After

 Here is the BEFORE of our hallway...pretty dark and dreary with the bland colors........

 And here is the final FINISHED project.  It brightened the place up sooooo much. 

I did this entire hallway and I am not sure why I was foolish enough to do a hallway with 4 corners on in...but I did.   Now on to the master bedroom!!!

Going Bold

Painted my wall ORANGE...I love orange and I went bold this time....and questioned my decision...but I am LOVING it in the end.  Lots of hard work paid off. (ignore the part that still needs done).

Richael: Well, if you go pickout paint colors 2 morro I don't mind picking them out with you. After all, it is probably best since we all know I have great taste and you have terrible taste.

ME: Clearly, YOU have better taste since you ended up with me.  As for me on ther other hand, terrible taste....afterall...I ended up with you.

halloween finishing up

 Thought I outta finish up with a few more Halloween pictures.  Here is the cool nylon mask the dollar store had.  Just have to say that the dollar store has some o the best decor for halloween.

 Here is my other pumpkin.  I was going to do the brain for hospital contest but didn't want to be too gruesome...so I did it for my front porch.

 Thank goodness for Shayla coming over on Halloween so I could split the important responsibility of handing out candy to kids on halloween as well as successfully scare them.  Turns out my coat closet opens up right to the front door.  Whey shayla said the code work "trick or treat" it ment the kids looked old enough that I could jump out and scare them.  And boy were they surprised. 
   There was one kid that I scared when I jumped out behind Shayla....turns out it was Richael.  He was in the neighborhood doing a delivery and stopped by... and I scared him. He threw his candy at me.

Here is a quick little shadow I made for our attic window.  Next year richael wants to put a red light in our attic.  That will be fun.
Anyhow..that is about all for halloween. SO sad it is over.  I was soooo glad I got to hand out candy but I am so sad that I couldnt go trick of treating. 

Halloween Decor

I have a few Halloween decor I got finished this year that I have wanted to get done LONG ago but just now finishing up.

Potion Bottles

Spell Book (didn't turn out quite how I imagines but I am relatively happy with it)

Lastly...we had a pumpkin carving contest at work.  I whipped this little number out..preeetty sure we are taking this one!

2012 Halloween Costume Unveiling

YZMA

 

 

 I was tickeled pink for this costume this year.  It was going to be perfect....but Richael "did not want to be kronk." I have to say my sister Chewy first brought up the idea last year and the wheels started to turn!

 The most important part was the saggy boobs.  HIilarious. I was so proud of how they turned out. I just laughed and laughed and laughed . Giddy beyond belief. lol

He skeltons

Him....  Your lucky

Me...  Why is that?

Him.... Cuz I was going to have all your skeletons posed in suggestive and inappropriate poses when you got home but it wouldn't work cuz I realized their arms dont move.

Me thinking....I don't even want to know what poses required arms.
