Randomness

I love our home in Levelland, but my kitchen needed a little "flare"!=) I bought this red dish/stand and bird at Hobby Lobby (50% off)! The pic makes them look more shinny than they really are. The bird has celery green coming through the red on her beak and feathers. (Below pic) I also bought this bowl and fake pears to go on my island. The bag of pears actually said "Warning! I am not real. DO NOT EAT ME!" I thought to myself, "Seriously?"
I also bought this red tin frame on sale for $11. Can you believe it? The flash messed the picture up, but it looks really nice on my plain Jane beige walls. Now all I need is a red reg and a red valance above my kitchen window.
Ronnie went to a Kairos meeting on Saturday, and I cleaned house. This activity, courtesy of Tiffany, kept the boys busy for not one, not two, but THREE HOURS!!! They just scooped and hauled the dry beans and popcorn kernels with their tractors.
What's new with the boys?
Kade's new thing when you hand him something he dropped or tell him where something is "OH, oh, oh, oh!" Almost like he is saying, "Oh, I forgot!" It is so cute!
Drew's came up with the following words to "This Little Piggy" the other day,
"This little piggy went to Wal-Mart,
This little piggy went to the mall,
This little piggy went to church,
This little piggy ate pizza,
and this little piggy went, "Wee, wee, wee, all the way home." "

Looks really good, sweet sis. I really like all the touches of red and I can't wait to see all of it in person. I just saw your comments on Steph's blog and I thought I would try to help. I used one of those weight loss tickers for a while...after you build it, you have to copy the code it gives you, go to your blog and add a gadget called HTML. Then, just paste the code into the box and hit save. You can then move it to wherever you want it. BMI stands for Body Mass Index. It has to do with the relationship between your height and weight and what is healthy for your particular height. Here is a link to more information. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_mass_index

That box is great, I'm going to have to make one of those for my son for his birthday. Your new accents look great too. A lot of times you can print a 40% off coupon on Hobby Lobby's website, it can only be used on regular priced items but if there's something you really want it a good way to make it affordable.
