campus flowers

Tree....

bush.... spaghetti.... confetti!!!

this is a poem we would say to help scatter the seeds (and the stems) all over the lawn (and in the garden....which we weren't supposed to play in), as kids

car parts

can anyone guess what car part this is?

finished product

it doesn't quite look like this in real life... its a bit darker and a bit more red, but it still looks really good.  all in all, i think we are pleased with the finished product.

Clear coat

This is the first clear coat.  we love how much the red came out and hope that it stays close to that color

really almost done!

sorry about all the floor pictures.  its just been the main thing going on in life right now :)  now to only wipe it all down and put on the clear coats.

Mostly done!

don't worry, the darker part is just laid down... it should dry to look like the other soon... especially after we sweep and wipe it all down to put the clear coat on!

Mystery Garden

We walked by this on the way to taking Drew to work this afternoon.  I couldn't see over the retaining wall (the top was well over my head) and Drew could barely see that there were things growing in it.  I decided to lift up my camera and see what there was to see.  This is what we came up with.  we were discussing later, and couldn't figure out who would even see this little mystery garden?

Yard Sale Set-Up

Our apartment complex was supposed to have a yard sale.  We wanted to sell these items.  Sadly, no one else seemed to participate in it, even the couple that was promoting it so that they could move.  We were most confused.... and didn't sell anything.

Advent Calendar

I picked up the patterns clear last Christmas.  I'm finally getting around to cutting them out.  I'm excited to have an advent calendar again this year
