Oops A Week Went By!!

Wow it is Monday again and it has been

a week since my last post...that just tells ya

how busy we are over here!!

Here are some pictures of what we have been up to 

over here these days!!

 Last week Andrew celebrated the 100th day of school!

We counted out 100 Fruit Loops for a school project!!

He did really well making groups of 10 and counting them

all out-I was proud of him!!

My # 1 guy also created Andrew's birthday invite for me!!

He did an awesome job and Andrew loved it!!

Andrew liked it so much he taped it to his bedroom door.

It is hard to believe that in 2 weeks my peanut will be 6.

Birthday planning is now in full swing over here!!

I have been really busy this week making custom wreaths.

 This wreath was for my cousin!

I will be making myself one soon!!!!

Andrew and I made a batch of homemade

chocolate chip cookies and they are delicious!!

I had to have some cookies with milk when 

I was working on a scarf for a friend!!

Saturday morning I woke up to this 

heart cut out by Andrew!! 

He made it all by himself!!

Saturday morning fires and coffee are pure bliss!!

I got a lot of things sanded, painted and completed

over the weekend but still have more to do!!

Kev told me last night I am basically working two full-time

jobs now with the amount of stuff HOMESPUN has

going on but I don't mind it at all...it is all good stuff

and HOMESPUN is GROWING so that ROCKS!!

Saturday night we went on a family date to

Dunkin Donuts-fancy right!!!?

Andrew was checking out the ice cream cakes for

his birthday-he is set on having a Super Mario cake.

On our way out I spotted this t-shirt!

I want one!!

Sunday afternoon my mom helped me set a space up

in-- Classic Country Consignments!

Stop by and check it out if you live in the area.

They have a wide variety of products to look at!!

Today...well I had to take Kev to the eye specialist and

we had a good laugh...he was the youngest patient in there!

I also delivered some products to a salon in Chesterland-Skin Unique!

So much good stuff going on these days it is hard to keep track!
Oh yeah...today I also ordered HOMESPUN t-shirts to wear to all
of our upcoming shows---can't wait to see how they turn out!

Well I hope everyone has been doing well!!

Stephanie:)

Monday.

Hello Lovelies!

It is Monday afternoon and a brand

new week is in full swing!!

I have been writing down all the stuff

I need to get done this week and I am

going to be a busy gal.

All the things I need to accomplish are good things

so I should be able to get through them rather quickly and enjoy them all
at the same time-BONUS FOR ME!!

It is crazy that it is February!

We are that much closer to SPRING!!!!!

What does your week look like?

Do you have any exciting plans?

This week I have a lot to accomplish:

1.  Finish a bunch of wreaths for friends and families.

2.  Fill out show applications.

3.  Get  products ready to be sold in a Salon!!

4.  Create new chalkboards.

5.  Order new business cards.

6.  Write out Andrew's birthday invites and mail them --or-

send out an email invite? 

7.  Help Andrew write out his Valentine's for school.
8.  Work on stuff for Andrew's birthday-he wants to
have a Super Mario themed party.
9.  Start writing out my sister's baby shower invites.

The list goes on and on.....but you get the drift!

I am busy-you are busy-we all are busy!!

If you haven't had a chance stop by my Etsy shop over the past weekend

I was able to list 4 new wreaths!!! There is something in the shop for everyone!

Enjoy the rest of your Monday!!

Wrapping Up Our Weekend

Wrapping up our weekend short and sweet so

I can hop on the couch with a cup of tea, strawberry shortcake,

and Kev to watch some of the Super Bowl.

Our weekend was good very productive

 and we had a lot of time well spent with friends and family!

On Friday I had to get some more products

together to drop off at Kelly's Korners.

It is nice adding something new-stop by and check it out

if you live in the area!

On Saturday we were pretty much snowed in again

so I had a lot of time to clean and organize some of my stuff.

My yarn basket is finally organized and I was able to 

complete three more scarves.

 I then went straight to Andrew's room and threw away

three bags of junk.....it is amazing how

much stuff kids accumulate.

He was not happy with me but oh well his

room looks so much better now.

Sunday morning we woke up to of course more snow..

but the sun was trying to come out!!

I am in need of some sunshine and cannot wait till Spring.

I also woke up to a nasty cold so nothing is better

then Blueberry Tea when I am feeling under the weather.

The gang was all here watching cartoons with Andrew!

He is OBSESSED with Super Mario these days.

Sunday afternoon my sister and I had a 60th birthday dinner for 

my parents.  Here are some snap shots.....how funny is it that

you cannot get everyone to look at the camera at once!!

 

Try #1.

Not sure what my hubby and brother-in-law are doing?!

But my sister and I managed to look straight at the camera this time!!

Try #2

Wow....we are special!!

At least we tried!

 My mom and dad both enjoyed spending time with everyone

and it was nice getting together! We have a BIG family and I

wish we could see each other more often. 

I am so blessed to have an amazing family!

Well I hope everyone had a nice weekend and are gearing up

for another week.  Happy Sunday!

Stephanie ;)

Snow Day Bliss

The joys of being a teacher are waking

up and getting the call that there is no school

and we have a SNOW DAY!! 

After my stressful day yesterday it was just what I needed 

to put the "pep" back into my step!!

I was lucky enough to get a snow day but poor

Andrew did not so I have been home all day

in my sweats with Pez, the fire going, coffee,

and Pandora playing in the background.

It is simply my slice of heaven today!

I got to put Andrew on the bus this morning 

which is rare so that started my day off right!

He loves riding in the front seat up the driveway and being able

to be in control of the radio!!

I have been getting some stuff done around the house today

and squeezing in a few new wreaths that I will be 

listing on Etsy later today!

Here is a sneak peek.

Love this color combination of pink, yellow, and blue!

Hello gorgeous.....simple and classy.

This wreath has to be one of my favorites.

It will be hard to part with this one but I know

someone will love it as much as I do!!

Make sure and stop by my Etsy shop later tonight and

check out some of the new stuff!

Well I am going to go enjoy my last 2 hours of quiet time

before Andrew gets home from school and I think

I am even going to enjoy a bowl of Coco Puffs

for lunch!!

I hope everyone is staying warm and is 

having a good Friday!! 

Have a good weekend!

Stephanie ;)
