Check ups and painting and beading, oh my!

Time to get this party started!  Lots of projects to wrap up this week.  I want to be able to have any and all domestic messes cleaned up before the start of the new school year.  We're starting our new year on Aug. 5th, so with that in mind, this week is going to be a wee bit crazy~ Hope everyone has had a great weekend!  I'm going to try and post pictures later today.  =0)

Weekends, Birthdays, and Gardening

Well, we will be celebrating my son's birthday this weekend. His birthday was on the tenth, but it was a matter of getting everyone where they needed to be.  Sometimes it works out that way.  I have a feeling he kind of enjoys it.  Who wouldn't want two birthdays?? We have family coming in from the upstate for the festivities and my daughter will be coming home from camp. I've missed her soooo much.  A week can seem like an eternity when one of your children is away!!  At some point I hope to start some seeds/plants for our Fall garden.  Can you believe we are already thinking of Fall?  The summer is flying by!  Hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend  =0)

Stairs Redo

I'm loving the fact that the carpet is slowly, but steadily, disappearing!  My hands are killing me.  Five hours invested at this point, but I'm thinking it will be all worth it!  I am headed to Lowe's to pick out a color for the stain.  Keeping my fingers crossed and hoping this project will be finished by tonight...

We have traveled from SC to TX and back again!  No rain in Texas, but we came home to what is evidently, monsoon season.  The garden looks so lush and green.

So far this week we have celebrated our son's birthday, looked for treasures at our local haunts, worked on many a craft project, and we're continuing with our remodel here at the house.  Our farmer's market should be jumping this weekend. We may just take a couple of hours and peruse the vendors this Saturday. Busy, would be an understatement, but we like it like that!  =0)
