&lt;br /&gt;
I know, I have been so bad lately. I just feel like I have so many irons in the fire and the blog just sometimes falls by the wayside. But I literally have a camera FULL of projects to show you! For now, I wanted to direct you to a little DIY Thursday lovin' over on the &lt;a href="http://stencilwords.com/blog/2012/06/21/diy-thursday-chandelier-for-the-office/"&gt;EAD Designs blog!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pop on over there to see the process behind this little beauty!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;

I am referring to the chandelier on the wall. Not the totally organized office that I have yet to show you. I am so sorry! Coming soon, I promise!&lt;br /&gt;

So you remember how I mentioned a new business venture like oh...a billion times? Well here it is! As of mid-April, I am an Independent Consultant for Thirty-One Gifts! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-e6Kgc-uclpk/T7_ra9sQfwI/AAAAAAAACdY/6NFkwzpzhh4/s1600/SU12_index_Utility.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="195" qba="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-e6Kgc-uclpk/T7_ra9sQfwI/AAAAAAAACdY/6NFkwzpzhh4/s400/SU12_index_Utility.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am not sure how much that you know about our company, but it is a Christian company that's mission is to celebrate, encourage and reward wonderful women! I have only been selling it for a month and already it is changing my life! We sell amazing handbags, organizational products, functional totes and cute accessories!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;nbsp;We just came out with a super fun new Spirit Collection, too! Makes me anxious for football weather!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;

&amp;nbsp;And how about this fun new summer print, Minty Chip! I love love love it!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;

So, here is the fun part! I decided to have an online party just for my OhhBaby Designs readers! (And their friends). The best part is, one of you will get all of the hostess benefits from the party! (&lt;a href="http://www.mythirtyone.com/content/hostess.aspx"&gt;You can view them here&lt;/a&gt;) This includes lots of FREE stuff! :) Here is how to get your name in the hat for the benefits!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. View the catalog (&lt;a href="http://www.thirtyonegifts.com/catalog#/1"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;) and find some fun things that you want. There is a special where for every $31 that you spend, you can get the All-In-One Organizer for $5 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VUn0g83diSs/T7_rcFAj61I/AAAAAAAACdg/Ai-EzYxWCyw/s1600/SU12_Utility_19.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" qba="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VUn0g83diSs/T7_rcFAj61I/AAAAAAAACdg/Ai-EzYxWCyw/s200/SU12_Utility_19.jpg" width="198" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
2. Shop the party online (&lt;a href="http://www.mythirtyone.com/shop/eventhome.aspx?eventId=E1807735&amp;amp;from=MYEVENTS"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;
3. Spend at least $31 and you will be automatically entered. Please provide your email address when ordering so that I can contact you. (it wouldn't hurt to leave it as a comment on here too!)&lt;br /&gt;
4. If you want more than one entry, share this page with all of your friends! If anyone that you share with orders at least $10 worth, you will get another entry. All you need to do is comment on here with their names.&lt;br /&gt;
5. If you book a party (it can just be online if you are out of the area), you will get a special gift from me! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
***I will be closing the Party and choosing the hostess on May 30th!***&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, if you are not in the area, you will probably want to have your products direct shipped to you. It is much less expensive than shipping it to me first and will arrive much faster!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With Father's Day coming up, I would highly encourage you to check out the men's products! The Textured twill fabric is a hit, as are the men's wallets! Also there are some excellent summer solutions as well! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, if any of you are interested in starting your own business, whatever the reason, I would LOVE to talk with you about the opportunity! Just let me know :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please let me know if you have any questions!&lt;br /&gt;

I have been giving a lot of time and energy to my new business venture (post on that coming soon) and trying to spend as much time as possible with my sweet Grandaddy.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;He has been fighting the battle with lung cancer since October, and 3ish weeks ago, we were given the news that it had spread to his liver. Those next weeks were filled with a lot of love and round the clock care for him, and then Friday morning he went home to be with Jesus and with my grandmother, who he lost when my mom was eleven. Here is a photo of us with him on our wedding day, almost exactly 2 years ago (the 22nd was our Anniversary).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hrs-h5dhRNA/T75C0XUiHYI/AAAAAAAACcA/dftFIQTPOGk/s1600/Grandaddy+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="266" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hrs-h5dhRNA/T75C0XUiHYI/AAAAAAAACcA/dftFIQTPOGk/s400/Grandaddy+2.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;We all knew where he was going when he passed, but it had still been so hard to let him go. His final night here on the earth, my sister and sister-in-law sat by his bed singing him his favorite hymns. Also, for Christmas 2010, I made him a jar of memories that I collected from all of the members of our family. I wrote them each on a piece of paper and put them in a ball jar so that he could pull out one at a time and read them. He loved that jar. My mom and her sister (and other family members that were there) pulled those out and read each one to him, one by one. They said that he smiled as they shared precious memories with him. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;He had a beautiful life. He fell in love with my grandmother and had 6 children with her. He served our country both in the Navy and the Air Force. He lost my grandmother to cancer when his children were very young, and met Jeanette, the grandmother that I have known in my life (in the photo above). He had so many grandchildren that I lost count of us. And he lived for the Lord, the most important legacy that we can leave.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;I remember when I was little, he used to bring us fresh vegetables and I would help him clean and prepare them. He loved to garden. I also remember his smile and his laugh and how he always made me so happy. I remember the silly way that he used to ring the doorbell 4 million times when he came. It was only him that did that. There are so many things that I remember that I will not write here, or else this post would go on forever. But the best memory that I have, the one that I will hold on to forever, was from last Sunday. It was before he had progressed too far that he was not coherent. I had been to his house visiting with him and was leaving to go to the grocery store. I leaned over to kiss him, he kissed me and then looked in my eyes and said "I love you. SO much." It was the last coherent sentence that I ever heard from him, and I will treasure it in my heart always.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="goog_1724783762"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;My uncle Darryl was supposed to be baptized on May 20th. My grandfather passed away on May 18th. It was very important for him to know that his children would all meet him in heaven someday and he really wanted to be there. So as a family, we decided to baptize my uncle at his funeral, as a way to honor him. It was such a beautiful thing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="goog_1724783762"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783761"&gt;Now I ask that you would pray for peace and comfort for my family. Especially my mom and her siblings. Now that the hustle and bustle of the funeral has passed, they have to face taking care of all of his earthly matters, which as any of you that have lost someone know, is very hard to do while you are grieving. I leave you with this beautiful quote from a story that my sweet, sweet Grandaddy wrote:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;"A better life is not necessarily how much money you have, or how big 
the house is where you live, how fancy your car is, or even your 
friends, but how you present yourself to others, how compassionate you 
are, and how thankful you are."-Harold A. Hudson&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span id="goog_1724783762"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I see beauty and potential in things that most people would walk right by or throw away. Upcycling is a love of mine, so I also have plenty of items in my shop that I've rescued and made beautiful again! Verucas Vintage Treasures has a little bit of everything vintage. Collectible items, handbags, and lots of unique, vintage home decor. I love the Shabby Chic style of decor, and have an entire category dedicated to it in my shop. Temporarily, I also feature my handmade items. Lots of framed mixed media, mini albums, and brag books."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;Here are a few of my favorite things in her shop right now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Super Shabby Repurposed Antique Door - Wall hanging Coat Rack" height="226" src="http://img1.etsystatic.com/il_570xN.325394549.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/96660486/super-shabby-repurposed-antique-door"&gt;Super Shabby Repurposed Antique Door - Wall hanging Coat Rack&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Vintage Upcycled Syroco Wall Scones - Midnight Chic" height="300" src="http://img0.etsystatic.com/il_570xN.331046076.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;I am getting ready to kick off some super exciting giveaways as a way to say thank you to my wonderful readers that I L-O-V-E so much! Today is the first one and I am giddy to share it with you! And jealous that you are going to get it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;I stumbled across this ADORABLE Etsy shop a couple of weeks ago and had to tell you guys about it! The shop is called “&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.%20dgordon.etsy.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;dgordon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;” (direct link: www. dgordon.etsy.com) and is a lovely collaboration between Deb and her father! They create handmade, hand built ceramic pottery, with an earthy look and feel. &lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;Lots of texture and all hand glazed too! I am IN LOVE with some of their items! Here are my favorites:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Coral Lotus Ceramic Ring Holder Bowl" height="317" src="http://img2.etsystatic.com/il_570xN.294667962.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/96706666/coral-lotus-ceramic-ring-holder-bowl"&gt;Coral Lotus Ceramic Ring Holder Bowl- $14&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I am in love.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img alt="TWO Ceramic Owls  Seconds Sale" height="256" src="http://img2.etsystatic.com/il_570xN.327969314.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/97320140/two-ceramic-owls-seconds-sale"&gt;Precious Ceramic Owls!&amp;nbsp;-$22&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Or how about this BEAUTIFUL sushi set?! I don't even like sushi and I want it!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Ceramic Sushi Set Water Lily with Flower" height="241" src="http://img1.etsystatic.com/il_570xN.213349761.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/89049735/ceramic-sushi-set-water-lily-with-flower"&gt;Ceramic Sushi Set Water Lily with Flower- $36.00&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I could go on all day. Their shop is amazing. And I think I want one of everything! So now on to the really fun part! Deb has agreed to give one of my lucky readers this &lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;set of 5 itty lace hearts ring bowls. And I am very jealous! But happy for you!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Its in the back yard. But for some reason that is what the before pictures made me think of, so that is what you get! Last Saturday (I know...fail that I am just now posting from last Saturday) Michael decided that our rusty shed needed a little love.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Qlf5scXbwD8/T4Tk1C4XP_I/AAAAAAAACQ0/Y_dFuXvIfI0/s1600/DSC_1350.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Qlf5scXbwD8/T4Tk1C4XP_I/AAAAAAAACQ0/Y_dFuXvIfI0/s400/DSC_1350.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;It really needs a coat of paint, but that is not what we did. It will happen in the future, just not yet!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sn2LVqFsku8/T4Tk6e3dEgI/AAAAAAAACQ8/i2ZbPyJok_I/s1600/DSC_1351.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sn2LVqFsku8/T4Tk6e3dEgI/AAAAAAAACQ8/i2ZbPyJok_I/s400/DSC_1351.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;He decided that it really needed a bit more landscaping around it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ej4fAd19JRE/T4Tk_9S5b6I/AAAAAAAACRI/Q1InrFK9j10/s1600/DSC_1353.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ej4fAd19JRE/T4Tk_9S5b6I/AAAAAAAACRI/Q1InrFK9j10/s400/DSC_1353.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;First, he dug around the front and sides the shape of the bed that he wanted. This is easier with a square shovel, but we don't have one, so he made do with the one in the pic!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8rrFdViyppo/T4TlGwsXteI/AAAAAAAACRU/9G7J2gAPP1c/s1600/DSC_1356.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8rrFdViyppo/T4TlGwsXteI/AAAAAAAACRU/9G7J2gAPP1c/s400/DSC_1356.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Here she is with the bed shape dug out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-W4TCIvizVsc/T4TlMiRG6BI/AAAAAAAACRg/gDb7nSaE6Io/s1600/DSC_1359.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-W4TCIvizVsc/T4TlMiRG6BI/AAAAAAAACRg/gDb7nSaE6Io/s400/DSC_1359.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Then he let me place the plant variety that he bought how I wanted them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LSl-_0WGwNc/T4TlTO6y08I/AAAAAAAACRo/PWyLN-VaU1U/s1600/DSC_1362.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LSl-_0WGwNc/T4TlTO6y08I/AAAAAAAACRo/PWyLN-VaU1U/s400/DSC_1362.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The next step was to get the edges straight in the back and then lay out the edging.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GDQK59ri6l8/T4TlZwD8b6I/AAAAAAAACR4/QOCUCTW7swg/s1600/DSC_1363.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GDQK59ri6l8/T4TlZwD8b6I/AAAAAAAACR4/QOCUCTW7swg/s400/DSC_1363.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Edging is important! It helps to define the bed and keep weeds and grass out!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E42n_I3gb04/T4TlgiTrwtI/AAAAAAAACSA/jRvc1dxPE0U/s1600/DSC_1364.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E42n_I3gb04/T4TlgiTrwtI/AAAAAAAACSA/jRvc1dxPE0U/s400/DSC_1364.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
He carefully lined the edging along the side of the bed and drive edging steaks into it. This helps to hold it in place.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MG0oOxLknrE/T4TlnTh2cSI/AAAAAAAACSM/_x5TpoKSJQM/s1600/DSC_1367.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MG0oOxLknrE/T4TlnTh2cSI/AAAAAAAACSM/_x5TpoKSJQM/s400/DSC_1367.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wdAMkX_dLVY/T4TltYJ3TmI/AAAAAAAACSU/Le6q4CQ-a5U/s1600/DSC_1368.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wdAMkX_dLVY/T4TltYJ3TmI/AAAAAAAACSU/Le6q4CQ-a5U/s400/DSC_1368.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Here is the other side of the ramp with the edging down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Ed7VhewUrWE/T4Tlz2KTjHI/AAAAAAAACSg/pkpYsKiUL30/s1600/DSC_1369.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Ed7VhewUrWE/T4Tlz2KTjHI/AAAAAAAACSg/pkpYsKiUL30/s400/DSC_1369.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Next he put down underlayment weed guard. This helps keep the weeds from coming up from the bottom.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oqVIqdo5DUc/T4Tl5C0RvXI/AAAAAAAACSo/wdvswQ3Ok6I/s1600/DSC_1372.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oqVIqdo5DUc/T4Tl5C0RvXI/AAAAAAAACSo/wdvswQ3Ok6I/s400/DSC_1372.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;He cut holes for the plants (with potting soil under them). Once the plants were in he filled around them with black mulch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iD80GJnoN9I/T4Tl9CpkHsI/AAAAAAAACS0/Xh7N_Svnfsk/s1600/DSC_1375.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iD80GJnoN9I/T4Tl9CpkHsI/AAAAAAAACS0/Xh7N_Svnfsk/s400/DSC_1375.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t9U1j1IORdE/T4TmDc7H56I/AAAAAAAACS8/KNImNn7UnkQ/s1600/DSC_1376.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t9U1j1IORdE/T4TmDc7H56I/AAAAAAAACS8/KNImNn7UnkQ/s400/DSC_1376.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Here is the left side of the shed with&amp;nbsp;the underlayment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fAzeiSqklSg/T4TmIlwuugI/AAAAAAAACTE/t5eVEUAkMF8/s1600/DSC_1378.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-fAzeiSqklSg/T4TmIlwuugI/AAAAAAAACTE/t5eVEUAkMF8/s400/DSC_1378.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;And the finished product!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SKPWrMNIeb8/T4TmNzzu2rI/AAAAAAAACTQ/-EW4lEO-DNU/s1600/DSC_1382.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SKPWrMNIeb8/T4TmNzzu2rI/AAAAAAAACTQ/-EW4lEO-DNU/s400/DSC_1382.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-l9MKAWJUB04/T4TmTG1148I/AAAAAAAACTY/qJtVh3WIY4I/s1600/DSC_1383.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-l9MKAWJUB04/T4TmTG1148I/AAAAAAAACTY/qJtVh3WIY4I/s400/DSC_1383.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LTySVOKfpkc/T4TmXFEaPzI/AAAAAAAACTg/-QYa5zo5SHI/s1600/DSC_1385.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-LTySVOKfpkc/T4TmXFEaPzI/AAAAAAAACTg/-QYa5zo5SHI/s400/DSC_1385.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;It made the shed look so much nicer! Someday soon (probably not soon) we will paint it so that it looks better itself, but for now its spruced up by its surroundings!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Today I used quatrefoil vinyl to make a simple green planner look custom! I am so in love with the way that it looks and totally proud to whip that baby out in front of people!

I totally forgot I did have one other Easter project that I did on Saturday to share with you! In addition to the Waffles, I decided to make deviled eggs. But I did not want to make just any deviled eggs, I wanted to make them festive! Here is a little tutorial for ya!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, get a glass for every color of egg that you want. Fill the glass about half full of water, add a little (I mean little bit) of white vinegar which is optional, and a few drops of food coloring. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-20e9Z6Bzmoc/T4TcylXL1ZI/AAAAAAAACPA/RfSfYkg-1ZY/s1600/DSC_1399.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-20e9Z6Bzmoc/T4TcylXL1ZI/AAAAAAAACPA/RfSfYkg-1ZY/s400/DSC_1399.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I wanted to do the whole rainbow! For the purple I just mixed blue and red drops.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dS5gtErD2Gc/T4Tc2Y_uvII/AAAAAAAACPI/EBzgxgkS4II/s1600/DSC_1400.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dS5gtErD2Gc/T4Tc2Y_uvII/AAAAAAAACPI/EBzgxgkS4II/s400/DSC_1400.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Take your shelled hardboiled egg and cut it in half.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lPswHy_APZE/T4Tc6fBcxoI/AAAAAAAACPU/Nf3IDmmnLNA/s1600/DSC_1401.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lPswHy_APZE/T4Tc6fBcxoI/AAAAAAAACPU/Nf3IDmmnLNA/s400/DSC_1401.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Carefully pop the yolks out and put them in a separate bowl.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3uQDg3H0lww/T4Tc_gPET1I/AAAAAAAACPc/-bBjjpl8EiU/s1600/DSC_1402.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3uQDg3H0lww/T4Tc_gPET1I/AAAAAAAACPc/-bBjjpl8EiU/s400/DSC_1402.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Then, you want to drop one or two egg halves ino each glass and let them sit for 5 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EM3XZjMbv8o/T4TdHBKuceI/AAAAAAAACPo/pOgcpUuLQHY/s1600/DSC_1404.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EM3XZjMbv8o/T4TdHBKuceI/AAAAAAAACPo/pOgcpUuLQHY/s400/DSC_1404.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Carefully scoop the egg up to see if it has reached the desired color. If not, put it back in for another 3-5 minutes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-x5IqNce-uOo/T4TdORjdabI/AAAAAAAACPw/6ooKrsLd6tI/s1600/DSC_1407.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-x5IqNce-uOo/T4TdORjdabI/AAAAAAAACPw/6ooKrsLd6tI/s400/DSC_1407.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Once the eggs are the color that you want, lay them face down on a paper towel to dry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-d4H4-x6IFxE/T4TdSnmREVI/AAAAAAAACP4/sfKdFnPW4m0/s1600/DSC_1409.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-d4H4-x6IFxE/T4TdSnmREVI/AAAAAAAACP4/sfKdFnPW4m0/s400/DSC_1409.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;While the whites are drying, smash up your yolks in your bowl. Add mayonaise and mustard to get desired consistency. I just sort of do this to taste. I also add just a pinch of Splenda or sugar and a tiny dash of salt.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uXAmx7oAP34/T4TdYSF-k9I/AAAAAAAACQE/KP8kcSr0Uuc/s1600/DSC_1410.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uXAmx7oAP34/T4TdYSF-k9I/AAAAAAAACQE/KP8kcSr0Uuc/s400/DSC_1410.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Put your yolks on whatever you intend to serve the eggs on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-z9ZPoj6YPEY/T4Tdd7KOkEI/AAAAAAAACQM/PkLIvcc9bVY/s1600/DSC_1411.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-z9ZPoj6YPEY/T4Tdd7KOkEI/AAAAAAAACQM/PkLIvcc9bVY/s400/DSC_1411.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Usually I use an icing bag for this step, but I was out and this is more for the everyday person that does not keep icing bags handy! Just fill a ziplock bag with your egg filling and snip the corner off.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oEHp0Ky_xiY/T4Tdht1RZ0I/AAAAAAAACQU/If2GBACKsp8/s1600/DSC_1412.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oEHp0Ky_xiY/T4Tdht1RZ0I/AAAAAAAACQU/If2GBACKsp8/s400/DSC_1412.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Squeeze the bag to swirl filling into the hole of each egg. I would recommend starting by filling each egg just enough and then go back and add more, to make sure that you fill all of the eggs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DKaHRIC5S0g/T4Tdm7x7MbI/AAAAAAAACQg/I3eCb3DVcIU/s1600/DSC_1413.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DKaHRIC5S0g/T4Tdm7x7MbI/AAAAAAAACQg/I3eCb3DVcIU/s400/DSC_1413.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The last step is to add a dash of Paprika to each egg!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jC2RFa6M0Mc/T4TdvN73e0I/AAAAAAAACQs/JR2oDe6Fe-w/s1600/DSC_1414.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="265" nda="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jC2RFa6M0Mc/T4TdvN73e0I/AAAAAAAACQs/JR2oDe6Fe-w/s400/DSC_1414.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;There you have it! Super cute, colorful deviled eggs good for any Spring get together! I may have to make some if we have a Mother's day party too! And for the summer, you could make red, white and blue! How fun!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I took the weekend off from blogging, etc. to enjoy celebrating Christ and relaxing with my family. (by relaxing, I mean spring cleaning all day Saturday, but relaxing for Sunday and Monday!) We had a little get together at our house for Easter Brunch on Sunday. I was a horrible blogger and did not take many pictures (like I said, my mind was not on blogging) but I wanted to share the few that I did take with you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For centerpieces, I made these cute little Easter trees! I got those teal pails from the Target dollar bin. You will see those again this summer! And the eggs and Easter grass there too. Then I just cut dogwood branches from our yard. They are held in place in the buckets with rocks and I put a little water in there too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Z82bgDkNSL8/T4TTsrCpfsI/AAAAAAAACOk/6U7JslRr6LE/s1600/DSC_1393.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" nda="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Z82bgDkNSL8/T4TTsrCpfsI/AAAAAAAACOk/6U7JslRr6LE/s400/DSC_1393.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Here they are on the tables. We had to tape the cloths to the tables because Easter decided to be really windy! And since we don't have a large dining area inside we had scrubbed down and set up on the carport. The day turned out to be perfect, despite the wind.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VR5YSTgbDSw/T4TTwfMT5wI/AAAAAAAACOs/pIE0azD6_iI/s1600/DSC_1417.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" nda="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VR5YSTgbDSw/T4TTwfMT5wI/AAAAAAAACOs/pIE0azD6_iI/s400/DSC_1417.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Everyone brought yummy brunch items, but alas I did not get a photo of those. I did get a picture of our cute little waffle irons pre-action! I made waffle batter from scratch and we had our and my parents waffle iron cranking out fresh waffles! I can't stand frozen waffles, but give me a warm fresh waffle any day!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e_CC5T0XjNU/T4TTz6PCZ8I/AAAAAAAACO0/OFGug6rCdYY/s1600/DSC_1418.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" nda="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e_CC5T0XjNU/T4TTz6PCZ8I/AAAAAAAACO0/OFGug6rCdYY/s400/DSC_1418.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Sorry, that is really all I've got! I hope that your Easter was blessed, that you celebrated the true reason and had some fun with the others as well. (I love the Easter egg and Easter bunny traditions myself!) &lt;br /&gt;

Since most of us are working on eating healthier, I wanted something bite-sized for dessert so &lt;strike&gt;that&amp;nbsp;I&lt;/strike&gt; that we would not eat 1,000 calories worth of dessert. So I decided what better bite-sized dessert is there than cake balls!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On Saturday night I whipped up a batch (using the crubmled cake-icing method for the inside), dipped them in fun springy green white chocolate, and covered them in Easter Sprinkles!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZjjW2GvmNJs/T3ohlcVZVAI/AAAAAAAACMM/sDVjte5Buys/s1600/DSC_1350.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="265" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZjjW2GvmNJs/T3ohlcVZVAI/AAAAAAAACMM/sDVjte5Buys/s400/DSC_1350.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Once the chocolate had hardened, I placed a piece of parchment paper in my easter basket and arranged them inside.&lt;br /&gt;

Well, a week later they were starting to get a bit crispy. So I threw out the old, and set about finding new blooms...still from our yard!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I started with some beautiful dogwood branches in the vase on the entryway table. They had just bloomed and still look fresh!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TlWJf3jNYWM/T3oSopuk5eI/AAAAAAAACKo/SjYADJ3HKhc/s1600/DSC_1336.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TlWJf3jNYWM/T3oSopuk5eI/AAAAAAAACKo/SjYADJ3HKhc/s400/DSC_1336.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;For the pitcher on the mantle, I did something I thought I would never do. I stole flowers from the outside! We planted parrot tulips a couple of years ago and they just came up about 2 weeks ago. I love the way that they dress up the outside of the house, but I figured three for the mantle was no biggie :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ks9tykNmmp4/T3oStR-ngbI/AAAAAAAACKw/XBaFPvbrJLs/s1600/DSC_1337.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ks9tykNmmp4/T3oStR-ngbI/AAAAAAAACKw/XBaFPvbrJLs/s400/DSC_1337.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I love the way that they just sort of have a mine of their own. And they are a lovely pop of color!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cDhD-LTNTmc/T3oS1ORaNMI/AAAAAAAACK4/bTBzJOw-g7Q/s1600/DSC_1338.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="265" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cDhD-LTNTmc/T3oS1ORaNMI/AAAAAAAACK4/bTBzJOw-g7Q/s400/DSC_1338.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rAmMBVtNZxM/T3oTCF9R3FI/AAAAAAAACLM/knqOaMn3nUs/s1600/DSC_1341.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rAmMBVtNZxM/T3oTCF9R3FI/AAAAAAAACLM/knqOaMn3nUs/s400/DSC_1341.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I think they are so cute! I really love the look of fresh flowers in the living room!&lt;br /&gt;

Michael and I have decided both for the sake of our dietary changes and mainly for the sake of finances, we are going to take a fast from eating out (lunch, dinner, dessert, etc.) for the entire month of April. We figure we spend $300-400 a month on that junk and its something that we can live without for a month to help pay off other things. I am also hoping that cooking at home a lot more will give my diet another kick-start!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, my local friends/family, if you invite us out and we politely decline, know that we love you and have a conviction and a reason for turning you down. We are totally okay with having people over or eating in at other people's houses, just trying to cut the money for a bit! :)&lt;br /&gt;

I for once have quite a few little projects that I need to get posted on here! This one, I could not WAIT to show you guys! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We celebrated my sweet momma's birthday on Friday. I was&amp;nbsp;commissioned to make the cake. I have this bad habit of putting lots of effort into cakes that I am being paid for, but then slacking when I make them for the ones that I love. So I decided to make this one a labor of love and part of our gift to her. She has always loved when I did basketweave piping on cakes, but it has been years since I have done it! So when I was planning her cake, I knew I wanted to incorporate that at least on part of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-t_t1nntAWCo/T3kCOOB1RFI/AAAAAAAACKE/2LPdmKkD9r4/s1600/DSC_1332.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-t_t1nntAWCo/T3kCOOB1RFI/AAAAAAAACKE/2LPdmKkD9r4/s400/DSC_1332.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I wanted to fill the basket with something, like maybe fruit or flowers. I settled on hydrangeas because they are one of the prettiest spring plants in my opinion!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wV3iCXxHAz4/T3kCSt_KdJI/AAAAAAAACKM/QWc1ThBswkM/s1600/DSC_1333.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wV3iCXxHAz4/T3kCSt_KdJI/AAAAAAAACKM/QWc1ThBswkM/s400/DSC_1333.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Here is the top view. I decided to mix the blue in for some contrast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eUbUE0jASJc/T3kCW0QFfDI/AAAAAAAACKU/xZh9xz9kWL0/s1600/DSC_1334.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" dea="true" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eUbUE0jASJc/T3kCW0QFfDI/AAAAAAAACKU/xZh9xz9kWL0/s400/DSC_1334.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I had initially planned to make the bottom cake white too, but then I thought it would be really fun to make that lavender. That is actually what inspired the hydrangeas. I could not be more pleased with the way that it turned out!&lt;br /&gt;

Nope! As I mentioned on here oh...forever ago (btw I had a huge relapse since then), and then again right after my hospital scare, I have been on a journey to make healthy lifestyle changes and get in shape. I really committed to this back in mid-January and have lost 15lbs so far, just working out 4 days a week and eating healthy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Probably 80% of the problem for me when I am trying to get in shape is that I get really bored with doing the same workout day in and day out. Also my body adjusts to them and they stop working. So this time I have been constantly looking for new ways to work out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Recently my husband got into kettlebell fitness and I can see that he is having great results. I have wanted to start using them too, because I know they are great, but his is way over my weight limit. So today I was in WalMart and came across one just my size for $15! I couldn't walk away. I figure that he can teach me the moves that he does and help me out with it. Only problem was that I wanted to try it tonight and he had to work! So I started scouring the web and found this workout: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.womenshealthmag.com/around-the-body-pass?workout=21113"&gt;http://www.womenshealthmag.com/around-the-body-pass?workout=21113&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It actually is not super hard. I have been using an 8 lbs kettlebell. Most of the movements are pretty easy, like this one:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-j3HgDopu-Og/T25ofG9z8bI/AAAAAAAACHI/DRwTlA4_zfA/s1600/Aroundthebody.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-j3HgDopu-Og/T25ofG9z8bI/AAAAAAAACHI/DRwTlA4_zfA/s1600/Aroundthebody.bmp" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;However, after doing several reps you start to feel it. I also really love the swings, because I can feel them in my core.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HDUq7vvo4_M/T25ou39lqjI/AAAAAAAACHQ/TazLXdweB0c/s1600/1009-swing.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HDUq7vvo4_M/T25ou39lqjI/AAAAAAAACHQ/TazLXdweB0c/s1600/1009-swing.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I did the full workout in 2 circuits, waited an hour and half (a bad storm hit and I decided to chill and wait it out...tornado warnings, etc) and then&amp;nbsp;2 more full circuits when the storm was done. It was a great workout! I know I will be feeling it in the morning! Anyone looking to start a workout or to diversify the one that they are doing, I would HIGHLY recommend getting a kettlebell! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I will let you know how trying to do these with my husband goes!&lt;br /&gt;

The other day I decided that I had had enough of our winter mantle, so I decided to switch all of that chilly decor out for some spring! I was wanting to do it without spending anything, so I went outside and cut some blooms and branches to use in the livingroom.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the entryway, I placed some branches in my &lt;a href="http://ohhbabydesigns.blogspot.com/2011/12/diy-thursday-quatrefoil-vase.html"&gt;quatrefoil vase&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and then filled my cloche with jute wrapped eggs that I made last year and some moss balls. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Q_udZ9FqmT0/T235o-CY5SI/AAAAAAAACGA/DsG3gM7kgOc/s1600/DSC_1305.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Q_udZ9FqmT0/T235o-CY5SI/AAAAAAAACGA/DsG3gM7kgOc/s400/DSC_1305.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;For the mantle, I rearranged a lot of what was already there and brought my cute Phaltzgraff pitcher in and filled in with branches.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xcj8gjtYgYI/T235tdmYGsI/AAAAAAAACGI/KDIWjL_XrIk/s1600/DSC_1307.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="265" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xcj8gjtYgYI/T235tdmYGsI/AAAAAAAACGI/KDIWjL_XrIk/s400/DSC_1307.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Its so cheerful and bright! I know they will wilt soon, but I plan to juse keep replacing them with other branches. I am rebelling against the concept of buying fake ones!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-INhRA1TXHFo/T235xHs2dwI/AAAAAAAACGQ/c4MuJ_PKTzY/s1600/DSC_1308.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-INhRA1TXHFo/T235xHs2dwI/AAAAAAAACGQ/c4MuJ_PKTzY/s400/DSC_1308.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;For the other end, I filled a ball jar with water and placed some blooms in that as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eObOcIOonG8/T2351dS6mMI/AAAAAAAACGY/sIbvcZwh6Os/s1600/DSC_1309.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eObOcIOonG8/T2351dS6mMI/AAAAAAAACGY/sIbvcZwh6Os/s400/DSC_1309.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

We are spending a lot more time wit the windows open so it even feels and smells more Springy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OQ-r9KQGSFA/T235_AxgqoI/AAAAAAAACGs/oVutOzPvJHc/s1600/DSC_1311.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="265" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OQ-r9KQGSFA/T235_AxgqoI/AAAAAAAACGs/oVutOzPvJHc/s400/DSC_1311.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I also filled my little decanter with water, snipped some greens and placed them in the water. It turned out so cute!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MkdKu_YTp2I/T236CwrRy4I/AAAAAAAACG0/7kwnptfypgo/s1600/DSC_1312.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MkdKu_YTp2I/T236CwrRy4I/AAAAAAAACG0/7kwnptfypgo/s400/DSC_1312.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It has been lovely. After being sick, I was able to finish my most recent class and take a week of "Spring Break" from school as well, before my next class starts. I have still had to work, but things have been much more laid back outside of that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That being said, I am FINALLY getting aroung to sharing with you guys the brown sugar scrub that I made for my sister-in-law's birthday gift basket that I shared &lt;a href="http://ohhbabydesigns.blogspot.com/2012/03/home-made-gift-basket.html"&gt;in this post&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To make the scrub, I don't remember the exact amounts that I used becaues I ended up doctoring it, but I believe I started with two cups of brown sugar, 1/8th cup of olive oil and 3 tbsps of honey. Then I may have added the ingredients without measuring to doctor it into what felt like a normal body scrub consistency. I forgot to take photos of this part! So sorry!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Next, I poured my gloopy mixture into a simple mason jar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JwONaF5JmKA/T2ZQ3B2T1kI/AAAAAAAACDw/WUqBI4M2ouw/s1600/DSC_1278.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JwONaF5JmKA/T2ZQ3B2T1kI/AAAAAAAACDw/WUqBI4M2ouw/s400/DSC_1278.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I cut a square of white linen and placed in over the inner part of the lid and then twisted the collar over it, securing it in place and adding a bit of charm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BktRtaviVzg/T2ZQ8zIM2lI/AAAAAAAACD4/XnPYyiuMsEE/s1600/DSC_1279.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BktRtaviVzg/T2ZQ8zIM2lI/AAAAAAAACD4/XnPYyiuMsEE/s400/DSC_1279.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Next, I hot glued a strip of burlap around the center of the jar, like this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulQbDJ_58js/T2ZRDFwc6UI/AAAAAAAACEE/6pxXrmdmd2A/s1600/DSC_1283.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ulQbDJ_58js/T2ZRDFwc6UI/AAAAAAAACEE/6pxXrmdmd2A/s400/DSC_1283.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;I love the texture added by the burlap! To finish it off, I tied a cute little tag around it with some twine. I really could not be happier with the way that it turned out!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M0Ek-rtYdHc/T2ZRIL4FXUI/AAAAAAAACEM/Kna0C-paCnQ/s1600/DSC_1285.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img aea="true" border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-M0Ek-rtYdHc/T2ZRIL4FXUI/AAAAAAAACEM/Kna0C-paCnQ/s400/DSC_1285.jpg" width="265" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;You will have to let me know if any of you try this! I really want to make a batch for myself, I just haven't gotten around to it just yet. Also, I finally finished that coffee table makeover, I just have not taken pictures of it yet! I promise to try to do so this week!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope you all are loving the springlike weather! I cannot WAIT to get our spring decor out. I loved what we had for winter, but I am over it! :) Hopefully I will get to that sometime this week too!&lt;a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54489/306/1A0070A1B87890A360C4CDD5A183C17E.png" style="background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/pUpuc/~4/4l0GV5XgMOI" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://ohhbabydesigns.blogspot.com/feeds/4227416852280491254/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://ohhbabydesigns.blogspot.com/2012/03/brown-sugar-body-scrub.html#comment-form" title="2 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/842195354830032517/posts/default/4227416852280491254?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/842195354830032517/posts/default/4227416852280491254?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/pUpuc/~3/4l0GV5XgMOI/brown-sugar-body-scrub.html" title="Brown Sugar Body Scrub" /><author><name>Katie @ OhhBaby</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04716197016845106073</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="31" height="21" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_M3_axN7xb2A/TTJzatdP7II/AAAAAAAAABU/kigcvA9WMhQ/S220/IMG_1715.JPG" /></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JwONaF5JmKA/T2ZQ3B2T1kI/AAAAAAAACDw/WUqBI4M2ouw/s72-c/DSC_1278.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>2</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://ohhbabydesigns.blogspot.com/2012/03/brown-sugar-body-scrub.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;CE4BQHc8fSp7ImA9WhVRFEk.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-842195354830032517.post-1177067713819316305</id><published>2012-03-15T10:42:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2012-03-22T12:02:31.975-07:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2012-03-22T12:02:31.975-07:00</app:edited><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DIY Thursday" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="St. Patrick's Day Decorations" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="EAD Designs" /><title>DIY Thursday: Lucky Mirror</title><content type="html">&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0px;"&gt;Its DIY Thursday!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://stencilwords.com/blog/2012/03/15/diy-thursday-lucky-mirror/"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="287" ida="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CR9jrjA7e7E/TrwKGWclBLI/AAAAAAAAA_w/QnAQ1DhHi8U/s400/DIYTHURSDAY-LOGO.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0px; text-align: center;"&gt;Today's project&amp;nbsp;shows how I used EAD Designs Vinyl to&amp;nbsp;create&amp;nbsp;a fun St. Patty's day decoration!
