Witch Broom- Halloween Decorations

     My kids and I got together this weekend and made a witch broom decoration. I think its the cutest thing. We bought the broom at Michaels Crafts and we bought the pumpkins at the dollar section in Target.  We got the stickers from Michaels too. Oh and the ribbon was from a craft bucket we also got from Michaels as well. I really regret not taking pictures of the kids actually doing it because it was a fun project for them. 

Exterior Finished Playhouse. Update

I spent my entire morning painting. I think I did  a really good job! Its not the best and its not perfect. My kids love it tho.  The paint on the door is paint I got from Home Depot, it was one of those return paints, so I got a bucket for $5. Then the outline brown paint my step dad had in his shed. I mixed those together to get the red brink paint. I think it came out really nice. I am proud of myself for saving money!

I took out the window for now, I am not sure what I am gonna do with it. 

I love how it came out. 

Side view there no was sun, so the picture is kinda bad. 

Play House *Project 1 Update*

Just wanted to inform you guys of the playhouse update.  I  maybe scraped and brushed all the paint chips off of the house. So we could primer it. This project is not close to being completed. We have a lot going on right now, with our time and money. So I am hoping to have this done by the end of this year. 

This is after scraping for about two hours

This is the best picture I could do.

After. We added fake grass.

The kids they love it.

Added their toys .

What the kids did for Easter.

I found a recipe online for coloring eggs using kool-aid packets. It was really neat, they came out great but I forgot to take pictures of the eggs when I was done with them. It was a great day tho, We had a brunch with my family. When Tony got off work we went to my dads and had a dinner with him, and then off to Tonys mom. We were so exhausted.

Side note, yet again   I think I went just a tad bit overboard on their Easter backers. After doing the math later, I spent a lot more then I had realized. Next year I plan to do better!  I think. ha ha.

later that day at my dads, I forgot to take pictures of them. In their cute outfits.

Trick or Treat...

Happy Halloween! I hope everyone enjoys today! Be safe, be careful!
So far today has been eventful. Lily's school had a harvest festival and we took lots of pictures! I will post them either later or tomorrow. We carved pumpkins! They look really neat. Later tonight we are taking the kids trick or treating! What are your doing on this festive holiday?

Im back!

     Well I have been extremely busy! I finished summer school with straight A's. Yay. Go me.I really worked hard on those classes. I just wanted them done and over with. I am glad they are in the past. This semester I am taking 17 credits. I have no idea how I did that without realizing it. I am taking BIO 108 Plants and Culture, MAT213 Calculus,  CIS 105 Computer survey, PSY 142 People and Culture, MGT 253 Small business Management. The course work seems pretty good, so far. So we will see how much busier it gets towards finals. (I shiver at the word) But most of my time goes to homework. I will be updating now, that I am in school more, and I have free time.
     I also  had gotten a part- time/ temporary job. At the college bookstore.  That was fun. But I was at school from 7-7 . Half school, half work. The month of August is really a blur to me now. I did run into some bad luck, my vehicle broke down (still broken) . I had/have trouble with my financial aid. Its still being worked out. But good news is the job is now over. I have a little more free time now, haha. 

       My family is doing great. My little Sammy is potty training. He is only 16 months. He wanted to go on the potty because his sister went and that how it all started. He doesnt tell us all the time. But he yanks off his diaper when he wants to sit down. Its so cute. Im proud of him for making the effort. My Lily is getting bigger currently we are working on her ABC's. She is a really great artist.



This is her face she drew. Lily 3 yrs old.

  I will put up family pictures as soon as I find my sim card.
          I also recently went to visit my dad, I will be posting  about it later. But that was interesting. I am trying to involve him more in my life.
What have you been up to?

Hello Chica's!

Sammy loves water now.

I have neglected this blog. I am sorry. I have been so stressed with summer school, and just life. I just had no time to post.

Summer has been very busy for me, hardly any time off. I have read a few books here and there. Usually in between everything. I forgot how much I enjoy reading. I am going to go back to reading. I am determined to go back to the public library and getting my card renewed.

I have gotten a temporary summer job at the boo store at my school. This means I can get a huge discount on my text books for fall. I am very excited about saving money.

I haven't did much shopping but I will be posting what I have bought and old items that I have bought and never posted. I've taken pictures but just never really had the time.

My kids are growing so much. My Lily save her cousin from drowning. Shes an incredible artist and dancer. She is truly talented. I cant wait for her to go back to her dance classes in September. Sam is growing like crazy and hes a fish when it comes to the pool, he doesn't ever want to get out. He's a little dancer too. He bops his head and spins in a little circle. He has always been a daddy's boy. I came home from work today and he was so excited to see me. He looked at me and said "momma momma." I wanted to cry. I love my babies.

My husband and  I have been good. We have gotten in little arguments here and there. But what married couple doesn't argue. We have been house sitting for a family member and were on our own vacation here. Away from the family for awhile. Quiet time together with the kids. We have been in the pool all week. Its nice to have a pool, especially in Arizona.

About my weird bad habbit. I have progressed a little. I dont do it as often as before maybe three times a day. Thats way better than what it used to be. Well thats is so far. I will have more posts soon.

Willy Wonka (Lilys first Recital)

             Lily had her very first recital yesterday. There were two shows. Tony and Lily also did a Daddy/ Daughter Dance. It was so adorable. Lily was the smallest. It was really adorable. The rest of the show was amazing too. These kids have alot of talent.  They wouldn't let me take any pictures of the recital or video. They are going to make a DVD for the parents but it wont be ready until mid July. I will try to upload it when it come out.
