Score!

I will finally say it...
I am a closet ribbon horder!

My husband laughs at how many spools of ribbon I own.
I cannot stop collecting them.
Glass jars overflow with all colors.
I love ribbon!

I tell myself I don't need anymore,

and then this shows up in my cart.

How can I resist?

Oh ribbon....you make me so happy!

I stink!

Apparently, I stink as a blogger.

There is so much I want to write and post and at the end of the day,

I just cannot keep up with being a nurse, mom, wife, crafter...etc.

So, here is my lone post and some fun stuff I have been working on.

My best friend is having her 3rd baby.

He was a fun surprise!

We just threw her a boy shower last year and I used up all my super fun shower ideas.

I have been struggling to find something new and fun for this new little boy.

Enter Pinterest!

So, after a few hours on pinterest,  I found out what my creative soul needed...pinwheels!!!

Holy cow, how have I never made these before?

They are SO FUN!

So here is a sneak peak for what is to come this weekend:

A frame that sits on my fireplace mantel has been converted to shower mode.

Love using mixed pieces of milk glass and glass bottles.

 Loving the paper fans and pinwheels!

Trying out a simple diaper cake since it is a diaper shower.

Cannot wait for this weekend!

A little sunshine

I have had the flu for the last three days.

My poor son has been stuck with me at home and

 he has entertained himself with movies, xbox, computer and phone games.

I feel like a complete failure as a mom!

I hate being sick!

So, today I finally feel better and we invited some friends to swim.

My poor boy put himself to bed and now has over 104 fever.

I gave him some medicine and now he is peacefully sleeping.

So, what in the world do I do with a whole hour of time in the afternoon to myself?

CRAFT!!!

I saw a similar garland on Etsy and have been dying to make this beauty.

 Let me tell you...these are SO fun to sew!!!

It brought a little sunshine to our gloomy house this week.

4th of July Fun

One of my fav holidays.

I love everything about it.

Yummy food! 

Fun decorations.

Loving roses in jars lately.

Cute desserts.

Brian launching all the kids in the pool.

Cutie friends.

Best picture ever!

Handing out glow necklaces and getting ready for fireworks.

Watching fireworks with my two favorite boys!

Super great day!

So young!

Brian got carded at Target and I wondered...

Was he being sneeky with some beer or wine?

Nope!

He got carded for poppers!

We were cracking up so hard.

RSM better watch out...the Glaser family is out on the town with some poppers.

Brendan is extatic.

He cannot wait to mark one thing off of his summer list: 

"Scare daddy with poppers."

We are devising our tactics.

I hope we get him good!

Seriously...

This is what I found on the day we were going to pick our one lone plumb.

Brendan was pretty bummed.

He has been asking and asking when he could eat it.

Such a bummer. I have no idea what ate this!

So much to learn about growing veggies and fruit.

Welcome Summer!

These past few months have been so crazy.

I have neglected my little blog.

Summer is here and we are anticipating a lot of fun!

And hopefully some much needed crafting.

Here is our summer list:

Let summer begin!
