Things we have worked on.

Happy Thursday Everyone!!!

So today I thought that I would be painting, because were I get my baking supplies from is closed today:(.  Tomorrow is going to be a bit of along day.  But who doesn't love baking.  (I may get a little head start tonight)

To many grey to choose from!!!

Iv narrowed it down to three swatches,  I purchased a test pot, brought it home, I was sooo excited!!!,  painted some areas,  and its not the right colour.  So sad. 

Thank god for test pots!!!

Happy Mothers day to me!!!   Going to a green house was part of my fun filled day!!!  My plants are all planted and looking great!!!

Bringing these home was pretty funny in our Ford Escape along with three kidos, plus five bags of soil. I wish that I would have gotten a picture.  We were just one big flower, hahaha

Chris and I put these up on the back end of our house.

I still feel like there is something missing. Not sure what. My vision was a little different.  But Chris was happy!

As we were heading out the lane way to go to town these sweet little guys were perched on our new decorations.  Chris took a double take, it was priceless. I wish I had it on tape!!!  And I burst out laughing!!!  There not real.  I sure got a reaction!!!  LOL!!!

Chris also made the girls some new swings.  After i search all over the Internet I found great swings but there was no way I was paying $60.00 plus tax and then shipping on top of that for 2 swings.  These swings cost us nothing because we had everything, and it took Chris 15 minutes to make these and hang them.  Everyone loves them!!!

Everything was re-purposed!!! How awesome is that!!!

Enjoy the rest of your day!!!

Until then, Kendall  oxox

Painting EVERYTHING that I can find.

Hi Everyone, hope that you are having a great Thursday!!!

Here's a little tid bit of what I have been up to when its not raining and cold.
This is our outdoor dinner table, it was white, then a rainbow of colours,(yes this is the table that i have been doing my painting on outside), and now it's black to match our other wrought iron furniture.  Chris also made this as well.  Hes pretty darn talented!!!

 I ran out of paint, with just a very small spot to finish

I made this wreath last spring.  It has been hanging around in my craft room waiting for me.  And now she waits no more.  So I decided to paint her up.  I have a great spot for her!!!

I have also been wanting to paint this for same while now, but undecided on a colour.  So white it is.  This once served as a bench at our back door, but now a coffee table.

This is one of our favs.  From Martha, Everyday Food.  I was asked countless times were the broccoli was.  lol.   We had none on hand:(

And yes that's lemons sliced up tossed in there as well, so yummy!!!

Into the oven we go.

And out we come.  What in world have I done?  Sweet potato doesn't taste to bad a little black, hahaha.  It was pretty caramelized to say the least!

Chicken was perfect!!!

I think we have another super star in the fam!!!

Mr. J just had to put these on and then he posed foe me.  Too cute!!!

I think it might be a bit early to hit the rink.  What do you think???

What a clever idea, a handle to pick the kids up off the ice with!,   LOL,LOL!!!

(its sooo not for that!!!  How about to hang them up after the game)

Now off to planning my baking weekend.  Hard at it!!!  And loving every minute of it!!!!!

Until tomorrow
