Couple of weeks ago I was able to take off for the day and go with Evey's school to the Pumpkin Patch. It was a fun day. This place is both fun and educational. It is a working dairy farm.
Couple of weeks ago, we went to the County Fair benefiting the Youth for Tomorrow. We had a really good time again this year. They have all kind of booths handing out free stuff, bounce houses, pony rides, food. It is so fun. We meet up with our bible study group as well.
Our view on the way to the fair
Tractor Driving
We learned about Tee Pees (sp?) and American Indians. We also ate lunch
in one to get out of a quick rain shower
Jack and Austin watching the little pig races
Not even sure why Evey got on this or why they let her but James is
holding her in the seat. She liked it but I would have thrown up everywhere.
I was so tired of having Evey's jewelry items all over everywhere. Jewelry boxes and cabinets are pretty expensive and not very big so we made a custom one for her. This is pretty cheep and easy. We found this medicine cabinet at a resale place for $5 otherwise they have them new at Lowes for $25.
Light sanding and leftover paint $0
Add picture hanging hardware $3
Line the box with velvet $10
Add simple white hooks $10

May: Garage: I don't have before pictures but we found this awesome stuff at Sears, now everything has a place.
June: Kids' Rooms: We gave the neighbors a bed and some bookshelves and now Austin has a new room...not a big boy room yet. James added new electrical for the fan and light...best handy man EVER!
August: Bathroom [Not much to do here but I did get Evey's stuff organized with these]
Bow Storage
Hair Accessories Storage...so much easier to see everything and keep it organized
This is my favorite...A hook for hanging clothes for the next day
It is a sticky hook by 3M Command...so no drilling in the wall
