Making a Home!

The house is coming along..here are some pics of progress. You won't find my kids in the house though they have made a new house out in the two big Date trees we have in the back yard. What are dates good for anyways? Cause we are going to have a million of them..Okay now this makes me Happy! My Favorite photo finally displayed. I bought a backless frame for 60% off because it was on Sale and had a booboo. So its framed with no glass and looks REALLY good. I had to cut off about 2 inches of the original photo to make it fit which kinda makes me sad. WHY don't they make frames to fit pictures? Did you know that it is more appealing to the eye to have an 8x12 photo than 8x10 but all the stupid frame makers make 8x10s so you end up chopping off your picture!! Just like this photo when I take the picture full frame with my camera its a 16x22 but absolutely could not find that size of frame so I had to adjust my picture and it bothers me cause it doesn't look as good to me. I should have had Bill just make me one but I couldn't wait! Oh well I still Love it!




The stairwell in progress!! Loving it still!My brother makes frames and I went to his shop and snagged some backless frames forever ago. I really didn't know what I was gonna do with them. But thanks to Bree she gave me this fab idea to put the kids art work in there! I have a little plastic hook so I can switch the artwork out whenever I want. I so love it, I have these up in our toy room and they make me smile! I had each kid do a self portrait-even Hayman:)

okay well enough bragging on my projects.:) I have to go get a replacement SS card now. What a pain in my ass. I guess I have to prove I'm a citizen here before I get my Drivers licence in TX. Uhhg I hate dealing with stuff like this but it has to be done! Have a great Day!
