Happy Fourth of July!

I can't see the fireworks from my house so I figured I'd post some of my own online! : )

Crafty Day

I had a pretty productive day today craft-wise. I made two more reusable produce bags, painted all five produce bags and made a pillowcase tote! *update* make that two pillowcase totes!

Whatcha think?

Vic suggested I stamp or paint something on the corner of the bags. I have no stamps so painting it is!!! She thinks I should try to sell them, LOL.

Produce Bags

Last night I went to visit Vic and see her assortment of cloth diapers she's made (SO CUTE! BTW) and she got me in a sewing mood! I went home and made some reusable produce bags! No more need for those pesky non-earth friendly plastic bags at the grocery store anymore! I had some leftover muslin after I made a baby sling for Bob's sis-in-law and lots of leftover twine from my picture project. It worked out perfect!

*Sewing*

My aunt Shireen would be so proud! I finally got the sewing machine threaded correctly...a little tough when you don't have the handbook! Looked it up online and got it figured out : )

She would also be proud that I went out and got sewing accessories too! Haha...

The huge aquarium

This is the 55 gallon aquarium that is in the living room. At the moment it looks two different colors because there are two different lights in it.

EDWARDO! (Pleco)

BRUTUS (Blue Gil)

TRYING to decorate the living room...

Picture is a little blurry, but you get the idea...

I liked the casual look of the twine and clothes pins with pictures on it. I thought I'd try it out!

Cute little wall decoration from Pier 1. They had 'Laugh' and 'Love'...they were all out of 'Live' so I only got 'Love'

This is what I usually see...

This is what I see daily...Bob's back. He's busy playing WoW as usual. He's addicted!!! The crazy guy.

So sweet : )

Bob ran to Target early this morning while I was still sleeping...he brought me breakfast when he came home! Egg and cheese bagel, hashbrown, OJ and iced mocha coffee from McD's : ) He had even purchased his first reusable bag while he was at Target! (I'm so proud! I swear, I WILL get everyone I know to be at least a little greener...) Go Bob!

It was a great way to wake up! So sweet.
