Ms. Breanna is 11 and makin' some curtains

 

Ok, here we go! So, The day before yesterday I set out to finish the curtains for Jack and Jacie's closets. Well, let me tell you that my back DID NOT like that!

 

whew!! Then yesterday was a crazy day of running around everywhere, so I wasn't able to rest it, and it yelled at me again last night. Which brings me to today.. today is rest the ol' back day, and this is why I sit here and write a blog to you!!

First I will start out with yesterday. Yesterday was my amazingly beautiful, smart, talented, wonderful, neice Breanna's birthday!!

Oh my, can't believe she is 11!

So after getting the kids off to school, and finishing their curtains I got a phone call from the school telling me that Ms. Jacie-girl was in the nurses office for an ear ache. Yuck! So I went to pick her up, and I am chalking it up to allergies. Anyway after picking her up we headed to





Yellow Basket (little place to eat) and met Nana, Papa, Aunie (Yvonne), Alex, Katelyn, Uncle Allen, and the birthday girl for a birthday lunch! From there Jace and I went to pick Jack up from school, but before we got there it started pouring down rain..

POURING! By the time we got there, Jack was soaked and thankful to see us!

After coming home, I got some things done around the house, and decided on another project. Breanna said she wanted a stuffed pig for her birthday. Well, of course because I was looking for a stuffed pig, none of the stores had any. Now, if I hadn't been looking for them I woulda found a bundle of them, I'm sure! Anyway, I thought since I couldn't find one, I would make her one!! This is what I came up with...

 Yeah its a stretch, but she loved it! She named it "bacon."

Jacie and put her gift together..

 So last night we all met up again for dinner at the Yard House restaurant and then back to their house for ice cream cake, and presents.

Saturday we are all meeting up at the ice rink for some more birthday fun, with her friends.. and no, you will not see ice skates on my feet! geesh..

So as you know I am a Pinterest freak! I mean it, I love it! I get amazing ideas, and its just so much fun! Anyway, I saw some ideas on there for closet decor, and followed suit! I wanted to hide the junk in the kids' closets, so I used their old sheets and sewed up some curtains..

So, if I sit on the floor Dolly thinks thats an invite to sit in front of me..
I don't think she was gonna measure and pin for me either

This is the finished product.

This means I'm that much closer to finishing their rooms. Granted by the time I finish, they will be older, and want to go with different themes. Whatever..
