Here are a couple projects of mine. The pictures are I took on our vacation that I thought were so pretty that I needed to frame them and hang them up in our bedroom. Our room is the only one with blue in it so I thought they'd work in there. Aren't they pretty! And finally, we have the unveiling of the curtains I sewed. I think they turned out really nice. They go perfectly in our livingroom and Nathan and I love them. I think the easiest part was sewing them. The hardest was picking out the fabric. I think I made a good choice though. I still need Nathan to take down the awful blinds we have hanging up in both the rooms. He's been really busy lately though and I feel like the time he gets to spend at home should be spent relaxing. Oh, we also finally got our bed in. I'll have to take pics of our bedroom and office after I get it all done. I decided to make our bedroom into an actual grownups bedroom. So, I packed away all of my bears and super girly stuff. Surprisingly I didn't have as hard a time with it as I thought I would. I want to make curtains for our bedroom now. I think I've found a fabric I like but I want to wait till it goes on sale. I'm really excited about painting Alex's room. I think that when we get back from our trip we'll have to go out and pick out a color. We leave for Florida on Wednesday morning. I can't wait! It's coming up so fast. I just hope that I don't miss Alex too much.

you're curtains are really cute, at first it looked like you have hung blue curtains outside but then I realized that it was dark and it was the flash on your sheer curtins.

I was most shocked to see Nathan wearing cut off shorts, lol! Knowing how particular he is about his jeans and all, but I suppose lounging around the house doesn't really count. I just thought of this while I was away: "Those jeans didn't make the cut, so they got cut!" . Hahaha.

Totally cool curtains! I like the combination of the sheer and solid, very nice.

I like the pictures too. And is that vase with the flower arrangement new on your dining table? I just noticed it, and I really like it.

Dude, your comment about the shorts made me laugh, and then Jeremy asked what was going on so I had to explain the whole thing. So yes, I think he needs new jean shorts. Jeremy wears his clothes to the same extent too, as I'm sure you might remember from the Christmas time I tried buying him new jeans because his were all holey (sp?) and he totally flipped out. That was a few years ago.
