March Photo-a-Day Challenge...

So, here is a list I put together for the month of March. Shouldn't be too hard, just one photo a day, right?!
Stay tuned for all the photos!


Re-purposing...

 I have been meaning to do this with this ladder for months now, and I finally got around to doing it the other day. It was just an old ladder sitting behind the door in the shop, I thought it should be used for something! I painted it white and did some sanding on it, hoping it would make it look old and rustic-y...I still have a bit of sanding to do, but I was hoping I could put one of the boys to it! It's nice to have something to hold all those scarves!
And another addition to my bedroom is this chalkboard. Wasn't hard, just had to take an old photo frame, paint it with chalkboard paint and glue denim scrapes to it. I thought this belt added a nice touch (got it at the thrift store for 50 cents!)
 Ok, so it was my first attempt at chalkboard art, think I could use some practice! =)

If you know me at all you will know that I love playing piano. Not so much for an audience though, I can play so much better without people listening. =)
I bought the sheet music for this song recently. I loved the music for it, and decided I might be able to learn it! It's going slow, my poor family who has to hear me playing trying to play it over and over again.

Little Brothers...

"I may fight with my siblings. But once you lay a finger on them, you'll be facing me."
Around here we only ever make chocolate chip cookies, I am sure you will agree that they are the best cookies out there! Recently I decided to try a new kind...Dipped Gingersnaps. They actually turned out rather well, that is the batches that didn't get a little too overdone!

A Bit of My Life Right Now...

Wishing I could go for a snowmobile ride in this snow... 
 Glad I get to see these two every week...
 I miss the beach and sun...
I spend a lot of time with these two...
I do this nearly every night; getting orders ready...
 This little brother brightens up a lot of my days...
I miss all the out-of-staters in this photo a ton...
 I like my little buddy Kurt a lot...
