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
Ta Da
Already had the ribbon and picture hanging knob thing
March: Living Room [Not much for me to do here, worked in the yard]
April: Laundry [Not much for me to do here, worked in the yard]
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
September: Master Closet [Not much to do...trying to gradually donate instead of keeping stuff for the "in case of" times that won't happen]
October: Media Room [Not much to do here, will skip]
November: Dining Area [Not much to do here will skip]
Last weekend we went on our first family camping trip with another family. We borrowed a bunch of gear from all the neighbors. We went to a state park really close by in case camping didn't suit us. We all had a really good time. It was a little chilly so I don't think we slept that well, but it was fun. I forgot the camera so these pictures aren't very good.
This was such a cute birthday party. The mom must have spent so much time preparing for this. Princesses and Knights. She made tutus for each of the girls and an armor vest for the boys, crowns, swords, jewelry...the whole works
Pin the Kiss on the Frog
Princess Pinata
The party table was fabulous...straight from a magazine

PS. I think Evey thinks that she can only wear her Dora dress to parties cause that is what she wore to her party.
Evey started her new class last week. So far she really seems to love the Montessori class. She has some old friends and new friends in the class. Here is her first day
Course cutie tootie needed his picture taken too
Thursday was Evey's first day of gymnastics. She was so excited I couldn't get her to hold still to take a picture. She LOVED it. It was the was when it was flooding here, so she got a semi private lesson.
