What I've been up to...

So, in my spare time these days...which isn't much....I have been sewing and crafting. I love to peruse crafter's blogs and find cool stuff to make. I have to get started on Christmas already:). So...I thought I would share a few of my favorites.

5-How about orange--howaboutorange.blogspot.com

Those are just a few...I don't have all day to go through my bookmarks. But I created a cute backpack and skirt for my niece's birthday. I am also working on a wreath made out of an old dictionary...its taking a while...

Some other cool sites I have come across...
--myjobchart.com--a cool website that lets kids keep up with their chores in the house and earn points. Now, I never got rewards or money for doing chores in my house...but I do see the value in teaching them to earn, save, spend, and give away money.
--datingdivas.com--fun ideas for date nights with your husband. Andy and I are working on getting some dates here and there these days. It's important to make it a priority...some times it is tough financially, but there are some great ideas on here for cheap dates.

So...just thought I would share those. More deep thoughts to come:)
