My computer got a virus. My husband spent ALL day trying to fix it. No such luck. Wiped my hard drive clean and I lost everything. Good news is I scored some awesome deals at goodwill today. Its late I will post pics and finish up in the morning.

Muffin Monday!!!!!

Pineapple Zucchini Muffins
"These are deliciously moist muffins that that'll disappear quickly! Use carrot or zucchini, or both if you prefer. I make a batch of each, then put some in the freezer (in Ziploc bags) for later, which usually isn't very long! My entire family just loves them!"

Pinterest

Let me start off by saying I LOVE Pinterest. It seems like since I joined I have been on it for hours at a time. I have a ton of projects saved and a bunch of new ideas for the house. All of the people on there are very talented and have inspired me more then they could possibly know. This week the kids and I are going to build a fairy house. I am hopefully going to finish the girls room. So watch for pictures of that very soon. I also plan on updating my calandar I have to fill in Moms group activities. Homeschool activities for Christopher since I am planning on keeping him home with me one more year.

I found this blog hopping awhile ago and this is the first project the girls and I are making for their room. I am so sorry I do not remember what Blog or who to give credit too. I think its a great picture and Simple enough for Adriana to help with.




This is also something I am on the lookout for. Then entry way to my home is quite small and when I saw ths I immediatly knew I wanted to do this. So far I have had people call me and say I saw a headboard on the side of the road that might work. Well.... Needless to say they have not worked and my husband is less then thrilled with all the headboards in the garage. Good news is I am make a bench out of one of them for my girls room. Which is 75% finished. I really hope it turns out good.




Last thing for today. I am more determined then ever to blog more. With a theme and a set schedule I function better. Here is my ideal schedule.

Sunday is Coupon Sunday. Where I post the deals I am out for this week.
Monday is "Muffin Monday" This will be the day that I post breakfasts that I will make and freeze for the week.
Tuesday Will be Pinterest tuesday
Wednesday will be Gift making
Thursday will be updat on the house.
Friday will be a recap of my week.
Saturday will be a family outing on a budget day.

Wish me Luck I am off for the night.

Summer

Lately I feel like my Summer has been ruined. Mostly because we bought a house and moved in.Besieds the fact that exactly one week after buying our home my husbands job transferred him over an hour away. Which would be ok if he work normal hours. Well good news is we got the house for an AMAZING price and it's within walking distance to the kids school. Over the next week I will be posting before pictures of the rooms in our home. Except for the girls room. I already painted it so you will only see a finished product. Here is a picture of what I did today.


Also at mom's group on Wednesday we decided to do a cupcake wars theme. It was really fun. ALthough I am quite picky and did not like a couple of them but it was still a great night. Here are the pictures I took.
