Homemade Curtains for the kids rooms

My son loves the Texas longhorns. His room is "in construction". I made these curtains for his room this weekend. :) He didn't like the fabric at the store but I told him they would look good on the wall. He was very surprised at how much he liked them once they were on the wall.


My daughters room is a very bright pink. She loves this color blue for the accent color. She wanted a light sheer for her room, the window is very high up so no one can see in it. I sewed these up real quick and put them up. She loves them! Her room is also "in construction" lol

Zoo Trip

We went to the Pittsburgh Zoo. The girl in the blue shirt is my sons girlfriend. It was a fun day but very hot and muggy out! My hair was soaked from sweat...gross I know!!

~*~Happy Birthday Steve~*~

Old Friends

Yesterday I met up with my old friend Kris. I haven't seen her in almost 10 years. We used to work together in Kansas. She moved to Maryland and was near where I live looking at colleges for her son. We decided to get together last night for dinner. Even though it had been almost 10 years it felt like just last week that we hung out. It was great seeing her and was just what I needed! :)

The kids and I being goofy in the car lol

Me and my friend Kris!

Lost Links

I updated my blog background and didn't think to write down all of my favorite blogs. I couldn't remember then all so if you know I had you on my blog roll please let me know if you don't see your blog now! :) I just hate that I can't remember all of those great blogs.

Pennsylvania Skies Last Night

Here is the view we had of the Pennsylvania skies last night right before it started pouring.

I know I know....

I know I said that I would be gone and I am lol. Things are a little slower today so I thought I would drop in. We had some pretty hateful storms last night. The kids took some pictures of the sky, as soon as I can find my digital camera cord I will upload them to share. Cords in my house have been disappearing lately. It's very weird! First the sewing machine cord came up missing and now the digital camera cord...hhhuummm...

I plan to work on various things this week and weekend. I need to get my budget, menu, and home management binder in order. I also have various crochet projects going on right now that I need to get finished. I am making a baby blanket for a friend and I don't really like the yarn, its very thin and keeps coming apart on me..its very frustrating!!

We have to deliver subs and pizza's this Saturday. My daughter did a fundraiser for cheerleading and Saturday is the day to deliver. She sold quite a bit too.

Well time to get busy. I am dragging today. I decided to cut back on my coffee.....what was I thinking? I love my coffee and I am not very with it or motivated this morning with just one cup lol.
