Haven't written in awhile

I haven't written in awhile... But I've done lots of projects since! 

Just tossed a bunch of pins up from pictures of my projects:

I've been keeping all my projects in a photo album.  We've definitely made a lot of things along the way and have really had some fun.  I'll try to keep up here better -- because sometimes the story behind the reason something was created adds more to it. 

We've been staying busy and having fun.... making stuff when we can!

What's on the list? 

A Toddler Size work bench for Connor's 3rd Birthday -- Tool Man 3!

Maybe some pencil toppers or sucker holders for Valentine's Day

Little something for Katie's Baby

An old teammate had her first baby.... had to put a little something together... small personalized baby blanket and diaper clutch.

Project Painting with Connor

Fathers Day is around the corner and we've been making odds and ends. Today we set up a little shade station for Connor to paint.... I had primed all the pieces ahead of time. Connor painted all the pieces and me too! We had fun. During his nap, I finished the messaging... turned out cute for making something out of scrap wood and odds and ends I had on hand already (eyelet screws, chains, paint and wood). The only thing we bought was the stars--Connor helped pick those out at Walmart During our run this morning.

Blake's Door Hanger

Love this beachy door hanger. The pattern was a little off from the instructions to the design for 6x10 hoop but we made it work. This is a great entrance that matches the colors of his room perfectly for a Sand Castles & Beach Balls!

Gift for Mom

"G" shirt with all the grandkids names on it.

Brother Pillows

Made these for Connor and Blake--they were brother gifts I had ready at the hospital when Blake was born and when Connor came to meet Blake for the first time.

Baby/Big Brother shirts
