Weekend..what weekend...

Funny how I look forward all week to the weekend...not because I get to do projects or anything...no because my hubby is home!! Though this weekend is going to be a busy one...
Ballet, land closing(sold a piece of property), baby shower, Ballet performance with the family, 6 yr. old b-day party, church, and a 3 yr. old, 1 yr. old and 35 yr. old birthday party!!! Whew that is going to be one busy weekend......oh and I still need to buy some birthday presents! I am actually looking forward to the parties!! If only my teeth didn't hurt...I have never had any probs with them but all of a sudden on Wednesday my jaw and teeth started really bothering me and it hasn't gone away....I HATE going to the dentist, but I am at the point I am going to have to just call and make an appointment.....Well, it is past midnight and I had better make myself go to bed or I won't be fit for all the parties this weekend :)
Have a GREAT and Blessed Weekend!!!!

What a day....

Here are a couple Kitchen Ideas that I am in love with....
Please tell me your favorite!!!
#1: is from Coastal Living

#2: from Sarah Richardson's Cottage

#3: This one is from A Beach Cottage

#4: last but not least is from Better Homes and Gardens
Ok, it wasn't a bad day...it wasn't even an ok day... it was just a day... got to sleep in...got to eat lucky charms cereal for breakfast...and then spent 4 hours at a homeschool curriculum fair...and ordered all of NEXT years curriculum for my soon to be 1st grader!!!...yes, that means I am 4 months ahead of schedule!!! compare that to this year when I ordered his curriculum in September.. after school had already started...I am soooo excited and ready for next year... he wants to start now and forget the rest of kindergarten...gotta love that!!
Now, both girls are napping and I am wandering in blogsville and debating on how I should redo my kitchen....yes, I have the ugliest kitchen in the world!!....No, really I do....I have bright orange countertops, linoleum countertops and plywood painted black countertops...YES, 3 Different countertops...about 10 or so different size cabinets, all not even remotely straight, some with large holes in the bottom so I have to be careful what I stick in them....oh and my orange countertop is rotting away and has a huge hole next to the sink so everything drains down towards it and ends up in the sink cabinet.. oh and the sink drain isn't actually hooked up so it all drains into 2 buckets that I dump daily!! Oh, did I mention that the floors which are tile aren't sealed so every stain is permently on the floor!!
Ok, I was having a good day...Now, I am just sad about my kitchen.... I do have plans....lots of amazing ideas for my kitchen, then I look on blogsville and get even more ideas.... I will post a couple here...
If anyone reads this let me know which one you like....

Plants...and a Cold

Well, I haven't posted anything in awhile soo.....here I am ...... funny how life just gets in the way of this blog...but as I am putting the baby down for a nap and she insists on me being in the room (ie..screams) then I am here on the lap top... we haven't done much on the house lately....just some family pics on the wall and rearranged the living room to discover I liked the original way better so rearranged it back...I have been doing some planting...tomatoes, onions, zinnia, vinca, sunflowers, lobelia, rosemary, dill, basil, hmmm think thats it.. The tomatoes and sunflowers are about 6 inches.. the rest about 2..they are now living downstairs in the bedroom/craft room in a nice sunny window and seem to doing well :) as long as I don't forget them and not water them...but being this is day 2 of them downstairs we will see.... I do have pics, but once again if I leave the room to download the pics, Savannah will start screaming and will have to start all over in getting her to sleep so instead you can just imagine the plants.....haven't we all seen starts anyways :) oh and I have a cold, thank you hubby and baby!! :) (I actually avoided kissing my hubby the past few days to make sure I wouldn't get the cold, but how can you not kiss your baby girl....so needless to say I know have a cold....)
Well, Savannah's eyes are getting heavy and in a few minutes I should be able to leave the bedroom.....we will see...................................
