Projects, projects & more projects!

My computer desk is slowly disappearing...this is the right of my computer desk....This is the left of my computer desk....
Somewhere under all this is my kitchen table...
I did get 5 of these finished tonight...
I only embroidered a name on 1 (special order)...
I can't even tell you the last time I saw the top of my kitchen table & used it as a kitchen table. I think it might have been when we celebrated Trav's birthday over Labor Day. Wow...I have a problem, don't I? I blame my mother entirely!

The boys get a haircut...

Well, I told you Nash cut his own hair.....His excuse? "I thought I was cutting above it." Right...like I'm really going to believe that! Sam did this when she was 3 & Caleb is the one I worry about doing it now. I didn't figure this one would be the culprit. Guess that's what I get for assuming, right?
You can still see where he cut his hair. I had to use the 1/4 inch on my buzzers. Nice Nash. It's not like it's snowing or anything!
Of course if big brother gets a hair cut, Caleb needs one too. So, we put the cape on him & I put the 1 inch attachment on the buzzers. I didn't think that much came off but this morning, I realized more came off than I thought had!
Much to my pleasant surprise, this is what I found at 7:30 last night. I figured he likely wasn't out for the count. He woke up once about 30 minutes later, but mostly just long enough for a mama hug and then he was out again. I thought he'd be up at the crack of dawn (he usually is anyway). He woke up at 5:30 but a sippy cup of pink milk knocked him back out until the pleasant hour of 8:30. Whooo hoo!

I'm still waiting to hear if I got the booth in Lewiston on Nov. 20th. I actually ended up buying one of the things my team put out at the auction at Relay for Life and I'm glad I did because it was good inspiration today! Grandma Bown gave me this tree thing for a display... (should have rotated the pic)...
But, I created a giant copy of what I bought at Relay this past July. Hair bow central!! Samantha (or maybe Nash) told me I need a bigger one! I think I'll just make a bunch more bows & stash them in a gallon zip lock bag to fill in the empty spots as they appear. What I thought was funny was that the fabric I used to cover the board is some that I saw this summer at JoAnns. I had no idea what I was going to do with it, but I loved it so of course I had to buy it! Glad I did! I might have enough left over to cover another board!
