That's All Folks!

There you have it.  That's the end of my blog dumping.  Now I can get on with all my girls' September birthdays and whatever else I'm bound to find still on the camera:)   Till next time!

Tif's Surprise

Every month Terry gives me a bouquet of flowers.  Yep, he loves me!  He hadn't given me March's bouquet before I left town.  So what does he do?  He has them delivered to me at my mom's house!  Aren't they beautiful?!  They looked so refreshing compared to the drab, winter infested weather we were experiencing.  They lasted the entire 2 weeks we were in Utah.  Thanks, hon!

Anytime I leave town & Terry stays behind, he tries to do some remodeling work on the house.  I hate the mess that comes with remodeling, so I'm quite happy living with the 70's decor:)  That is except for the CAVE we live in on the main floor!  In the family room & front room there are no ceiling light fixtures.  We've made do with like 3 dozen lamps between those 2 rooms for lighting.  So Terry scraped the lovely popcorn ceiling in the family room & had a neighbor install the light fixtures.  He even had the ceiling textured, primed, and painted by the time we returned to WA!  

He left the actually light fixtures for me to go choose & purchase.  I like the marbled/swirled look of this one.  So we got 2 for the family room and one for our dining room to replace our lovely 70's chandelier.  

SO MUCH BRIGHTER!!!!  The switch is actually a dimming switch so that we can adjust it.

Terry is SOOOOO "MY MAN"!!

Scarecrow

While on Vacation, I wanted to make Sally's birthday present.  I loved this pattern when I saw it!  

I loved the patches on the scarecrow.  I even put one on his butt:)

The crow was simple and I also loved the straw hair on his head, arms & legs.  There's just so much detail in this pattern I can't name them all.  I had a TON of fun making this for my mom-in-law!

Now I just need to make ME one:)
