Well it is more like awesome news!! The truck has sold!!!! We're soo blessed and thankful for God finding us the right buyer for the truck. We now have the $$ in the bank not in the driveway. We're happy to get moving forward on taking care of other needs and wants.
Thanks for believing with us!!!
My sister has been doing coupons lately and getting tons of stuff free which has been a big benefit to our family and friends. So she had a bunch of coupons for huggies products so we went shopping. Had to do a few transactions at a couple different stores but all of the items in this picture were free!!! Yippie...that really helps our budget & pocket book.
Not sure if this is surprising or not...I saw this on my friend Jane's Facebook profile.
What Kind of Drink Are You? | |
 | You are a Juice Box. Some say you're no fun, but you know better than to waste your time drinking. Not only does alcohol cut down on time better spent being productive, studies show it can have an adverse effect on your long-term health. You have plenty of friends, but you don't get invited to the coolest parties. Sometimes you might wish you weren't so different, but other times you consider yourself better than the rest. |

Well happy new year to all!!! I enjoyed my day off working on DS's play table. I got the holes filled, primed it and put one coat of semi-gloss on it. Still looks like it needs minimum of one more coat of paint...but i'm really thinking it will be 2 coats.
Jack still loves the table alot...he goes straight to it with his cars and little people. We got out his little people airport and he played with it for atleast an hour.
I'll take more pictures once I finish painting.

As you know we started a home organization process and have been purging lots of unnecessary STUFF. In that process we rearranged the living/dining room in our home. We've made more room for Jack's play area and consolidated the furniture to make a more cozy living room area.
I wanted to get a train table (you know the ones that are everywhere right now) but I wanted something more built in and something that would be more than just a train table. So I came up with a design to put a table all across the back wall in the dining room area. We had one design in mind going to home depot but while DH, my dad, and I were there shopping we changed the design and simplified it and we bought all the materials. Plywood, decorative molding and fence posts for table legs, etc.
Well we had thought we'd work on it on Saturday but the day went by too fast and we spend alot of time at Home Depot and then had a family dinner later that evening. So we said Sunday. We ended up playing games with some friends from fellowship after fellowship was over until about 5:15. Thankfully I was able to convince dh that we needed to start it tonight so we could finish up painting it on Tuesday when we both had the day off. We got all the construction done in less than 4 hours. The next step is to fill in all the nail and screw holes and then Paint Paint Paint!!
So here is the before picture:
and here is the after photo from tonight (we just finished at 10:15pm)
I don't think these pictures do it justice. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE how it turned out!!! I can't wait to get it painted and put all his toys on there so he can play with his little people and his puzzles and legos there is room for storage under there too. Then he can invite some little friends over to really test it out!!!
I'll post more pictures once we get it painted.

Yesterday was my birthday I'm 26 now! It was a pretty good day didn't have tooo great of a time I have a stuffy nose and a scratchy throat but i've been loading up on vitamin C and taking colloidal silver. Jack has a stuffy nose too. Not a very fun holiday so far I really want to get better quickly so I don't have to feel soo yucky. I was surprised that I didn't get many greetings or phone calls but oh well the ones I got were special. And it's pretty typical for people to not remember since there is so much going on with the holiday.
We went to Dh's brother's house for the cousins to exchange gifts and that was nice. Jack had some good practice opening presents. I'm glad I brought one for him then he'd have 2 to open. It was a 45 minute drive to their house things went pretty well Jack got a bit restless going there but had lots of fun playing in his cousin's kitchen.
Today we're having dinner with my parents, dh's parents, 2 sisters and 1 BIL should be fun. I will be preparing my first glazed ham. I have to get some sided together too. We still need to get the tree finished and put the presents under it. We got the tree out of the box and a strand of lights doesn't work so we've been trying for a few days to get it going but nothing is working...very irritating.
I'll take pictures of our holiday gathering and post them soon.
Hugs!
