Hey Crafters....GO TO COSTCO!

Hey all...just wanted to write a quick note and tell you about my AWESOME find today. Perfect for you crafters who do shows. I was at Costco buying the usual bulk items when I came across the GREATEST folding table ever!

It is a six foot table. Legs fold in and then the entire table folds in half for easy storage. It took up no room at all and went into my trunk easy as pie. Not too heavy either. AND it carries a lifetime warranty. Yeah...I'm so excited!

I found it in the office supplies isle.

Good price at $49.00.

Yay!

I *HEART* Fabric!

I love fabric. I will spend hours on Etsy looking at fabric. I go to JoAnns Craft stores and spend ages looking and feeling fabrics. Of course, I do have one major obstacle. I can't sew. I can't even BEGIN to sew. I have tried. I even have a sewing machine upstairs gathering dust. Ahhh well. Perhaps one day with more time on my hands I will take some lessons....

But for now I have come up with a solution for my LOVE of fabric but LACK of sewing skills!

Fabric covered button earrings! Handcrafted by me.

Now I actually get to buy some of that fabric I fantasize about.

Why Little Boys Need Their Momma's!

This is why little boys need their moms. I will let the pictures speak for themselves ;)

Traveling with the twins...

Long car rides with the twins can be really fun. Not quite as fun as the root canal I had a few years back,but almost.

In an effort to pass the time we started playing word and counting games with them. This inspired an immediate fierce competion between the two and ended in one crying "I don't know the answer and brother does!" and the other yelling "She's hurting my ears!"

After that really fun game we decided to quiz them a few simple things. After a few questions were anwered correctly we were on a roll. They proudly stated their address and state we live in once prompted. All feeling good about ourselves hubby asked one final question...

What country do we live in?

To which my 4yr old little guys ever so proudly exclaims...." The Mighty Snakes of Hysteria".

Hubby and I got a great laugh from that one. Reminding us just how fun this really can be.

Very close sweet boy, very close.

We're Drowning Over Here.....!

Southern California is drowning! I know we need the rain...but does it really have to come all at once?!

It has been raining incredibly hard for several days now. Feeling a little cooped. Plus, our hairdo's are suffering terribly.
