Friday...Pin Day!

In my house, Friday night has got to be easy...

I do my shopping for the weekend/week in the morning, the kiddos come home from school and then it's chill-out time!

It the one night I don't cook dinner too...it's Pizza night kiddos and a Trader Joe's something-or-other for C and I.  Oh and wine for me...well once kiddos are in bed that's every night but...so anyways...!

I figure pinning my favs from Pinterest seems the easiest thing for a Friday blog post...so here goes!

Love these colors!!!!

Happy Weekend Everyone!!!

Our weekend!

The weekend is here...yea...what are you doing?

Tonight we have free tickets for a minor league baseball team, the Marauders.  It's the minor league team for the Pittsburgh Pirates and is right here in our town.  Very Fun!  K has a sleepover with a friend so I am minus 1 kiddos...I don't really like that.  I like my kiddos with me but I know know she will have a great time.  I hate that I can't hold on forever.

Tomorrow will be a hang out day...swim in the pool, maybe bbq, watch Nascar (go Carl Edwards!)

Sunday we are headed to MOSI, museum of science and industry, in Tampa.  My MIL gave us a family membership for Christmas.  The kiddos are so psyched...I am too actually.  I have heard awesome things about it.

What are you up to this weekend?  Whatever it is...HAVE FUN!!!

JUST HANGIN' OUT!

Happy Friday!!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend.  Ours will be filled with kiddos, sewing, KSU football, food, family and fun!

Grandpa with kiddos, We all love our wildcats!

I don't think there are too many chores to be done. Here are some pics of the house after a lot of hard work.  We finally have our lawn mower so C got the yard mowed...makes such a huge difference.  MIL has brought over many plants (THANK YOU CAROLYN!) and we have worked hard on transplanting from our jungle in the backyard. 

What do you think?

Remember this is where we started...an overgrown mess! 

So many of the neighbors have stopped by and let us know how much they appreciate all our hard work and to tell many stories about the doctor who lived here for many years and made the house what it is.  I guess it was once the hangout for all the neighborhood kids.  Maybe it will again...sounds good to me...what do they say, "keep your friends (my kids) close, keep your enemies (their friends) closer"!!!


I mentioned sewing...the current project is once again baby quilts...to be done and sold soon.  No, there babies in my future but I love working on these little quilts!  My blanket was so important to me as a child and I love that one of my quilts might comfort a new little person somewhere out there.  

I will post the finished quilt next week...ENJOY your weekend everyone!
