I have an addiction...an addiction to digital scrapbooking. And not only scrapbooking but creating banners and backgrounds for my blog! This has all happened in the past 24 hours and I can't stop. I think I am about to start creating a scrapbook for my new nephew (Curt Cashion), who will be born sometime at the end of August or early September! What's sad is it all started as research for a blog I am creating for the Career Center!
I don't know if I can stop!!!!! But if you have an interest in doing this and have a question, let me know! I have already figured out some short cuts....
Blueberries, Blueberries Everywhere!!
Last night I went outside to check on the blueberry bush. The past few time I have went out there, there has been a few ripe berries but not enough to pick yet. Well I hit the mother load! I think I picked about 3 plus cups and there are still a ton out there that need to ripen a little bit more. I am going to try making something with them tonight. YUMMY!!!
Too cute not to post and 100,000 miles
Here are a few cute pictures of Miss Gracie on the ride back to Tuscaloosa from Hamilton yesterday. She loves getting to go on rides and she was so happy to be back in Tuscaloosa! Also on this ride the Honda hit 100000 miles!! Let’s just hope for another 100,000……
“Hotel Katie and Gracie” is open for business!
This weekend I was also able to get my spare room ready for guest. Before Julie moved out, I have been planning on making that room in to a “hotel” type room. Thanks to Mom, I was able to get both mattress and bed frames brought to Tuscaloosa. These beds are actually my Great-Grandmothers! How neat is that? Needless to say, I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS ROOM! I still have a few things I need to get but for the most part I am done (minus my roman shades, but baby comes first). The curtains you see now are Julie’s that she forgot to get so I will have to post again once the real window treatments are up. Also I am looking for a bigger nightstand and for some wall decor. I am sure one of Mom’s frames will make it in here. 
Sorry about the dots in some of the pictures, I must have gotten dust on my lens!
Fixing the Sheet Rock and the Door
So I mentioned that my parents were coming this past weekend to help around the house. Well Lee and Carrie Beth also came and we got a lot done. Here are a few pictures of Lee and Dad working on the sheetrock!
So now I am waiting the 24 hours till I can sand and putty again. Then wait another 24 hours, sand again, and then get to paint! So hopefully by Tuesday night I will have the hole fixed!
And since the robbery, I have had no molding around my door. We replaced the door but till this weekend all you could see is the yellow spray foam that I used in the cracks. Thanks to Lee and Dad, I have new molding around my door! All I have to do it putty the nail holes and paint. I will probably do all the painting in one night!
Sneak Peak!
Here is a sneak peak of the guest bedroom!! This weekend Mom and Dad will be here helping me with a few things and I am going to try and get the guest bedroom as finished as I can! Hopefully I will have everything done except the shades (which Mom is making). They are going to be roman shades made out of black fabric with white polka-dots!! This room may end up being cuter than my own room……
Myrtle Beach and Monster Will!
I had such a great time in Myrtle Beach getting to visit Lindsey, Nick, Will and Griffin! I got some good sun, good food, and did just a little shopping. I also got to be there on Monster Will’s 1st birthday. Of course we celebrated with dinner at P.F. Chang’s! Thanks Lindsey and Nick for letting me get away from Tuscaloosa for a week. I HAD A GREAT TIME!!!!
