so...

 mostly finished. I had to strip it of the last finish b/c it filled the woodburning and turned white. made me mad.

 

this was my first paid project. it was going to be a tray. this tray was huge and heavy and the woodburning wasn't very big on it but that's what he wanted. I still like it though.

 

 my latest little project. the shapes came from the dollar store and I woodburned the design on them and water colour painted them.

 

sorry I don't have any pics of the kids to show you but I do have something else I can tell you. i'm sure you can guess what it is. some of you may have guessed something was a little off with me at Dwight and Leanne's. we're having a baby due mid to late march. it wasn't something we planned but it just happened. I was 10 weeks yesterday and I already heard the heartbeat which is such a miracle and almost makes me cry every time.  so the next time we see each other i'm most likely to have a bit of a tummy since I already can't wear some of my pants already. :)

Happy Birthday Karen!

I should really stay on top of this and post beautiful pictures of all the family members with birthdays, but for now this lucky sister just gets one. 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

32-33-30

Just found these pics on my phone from when you girlies visited and worked your arses off here.  Leanne, that's probably why you had Jamie-Lynn so early:)
So here's a picture to say Happy belated 30th to that cutie on the end and a SUPER HAPPY early 32nd BIRTHDAY to the cutie on the other end.
