HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! I love the cute little gifts from my kids the best!! (Even when they come from my own flower bed :) )






























We were excited to get a visit from Gramma and Grampa Child and Kaaryn in April!













































































LOTS of sweat, blood, and a few tears from sheer EXHAUSTION... and we tiled 800 and some sq. ft. of our home!





















Ripped these tiles out not once but twice...see the finished product below.






































Everybody helped....didn't get pics of it all... I was working!




















Sorry--here's an unrelated pic--just showing off the new comforter that I finally settled on after returning 4 others! (PS. the purple lamp shade is gonna go!)






Finished tile in family room...






















master bath















kitchen and entryway












downstairs bath








also tiled the laundry room and the kid's bath upstairs, but they are just plain tiles--no pattern.











Benjamin and Britain love playing the Lego Indiana Jones game on the Wii, so they wanted their room decorated with that theme...I'm





working on it.... On the left is a map and their chalkboard for their "daily mission". :) I have yet to paint the huge boulder that is rolling towards Indiana Jones (not shown).
