Friday I worked feverishly to get some stuff finished for this weekend. With the super wet weather we had in March, and then a pretty chilly April, it made it difficult to get all of the furniture painted.
I did want to share one of the projects that I finished up...

I think this used to be some kind of video cabinet because it has shelves on the inside. So I painted it, replaced the glass with a chalkboard (using something similar to thin plywood and painting it with chalkboard paint), then replaced that ugly gold doorknob. It looks a lot less like an 80s reject, don't ya think??!!
I can't tell you how much I want to keep this one!!! Maybe it's the blue/turquoise paint. Maybe it's the chalkboard front. But I want it for myself. Actually, when I first purchased it I had every intention of keeping it for myself. But then realized I don't have a good spot for it.
Even my hubby wanted me to keep it. But, alas, it must go to the Barn Bazaar :( But I know someone will take it home and love it...I hope :)
I'll have more goodies to share soon...

The kids both had games on Saturday. So I went to my son's game for an hour, then went to my daughter's game. Cause, of course, they were at nearly the same time and across town from each other. She played goalie for half the game and then got put in toward the end.

At the last game she tried to score twice but didn't follow through and the goalie stopped it. So we talked about what she did wrong...even as we were driving to this game...and when she had a shot she went for it...and SCORED!!! Woo hoo!!! I was so excited for her. Definitely a proud mama moment :) Their team actually won this game which was great because they haven't had the best season despite trying really hard.
And this is what little miss does during games...

Hangs out & plays with my keys :)
After the games I took the kids to see The Avengers. One word - AWESOME. And funny!!! Definitely going to buy that one when it comes out on DVD.

Sunday, of course, was Mother's Day. Which is just like any other day in my house. The kids still argued and drove me nuts while trying to get some good pics...cause they're kids and that's what they do.

I still had to run to Target to get baby formula and dog food. I had cereal for dinner because I was not about to cook. Call me crazy but I don't think I should have to do anything on Mother's Day considering how much I do the other 364 days of the year! I thought about grilling something but then realize we were out of propane so that ended that thought. I was up til 1am with Addie because for some reason she's having a hard time sleeping.
The kids gave me some stuff they made at school. Thank God for school and the fact that they have the kids make stuff. And we went out to lunch. But that's about it. Like I said, a regular day.
Now I'm off to get some more crafty stuff done!
