making a change

Before and After
Even though I love my china cabinet there is no longer room for it in the kitchen.  So I went on a hunt for a bookcase.  I found this white one at a flea market for $30.  It has a great look.  I love how you can see the black and blue paint peaking out from under the white.  The best part, I don't have to worry about the boys messing up the paint job!
We now have a lot more room in the kitchen.  I am going to be selling the china cabinet on craig's list soon.  If you are local and are interesting in buying it let me know.  I would love for it to go to a good home!

And yesterday I thought, I am just going to make the valentine cards for the boys this year.  I thought each boy would need about 8.  Well I found out today that Will needs 13 and Andrew needs 12!  A little more then I thought.  But I didn't have to buy anything.  I just printed the hearts, cut them out, inked around the outside, punched holes and tied on a sucker... easy right!

And good news, Andrew decided on a bug birthday party so I am in full planning mode... My idea of a small simple party is not going to work, I have found too many great ideas online!  We are going to have the party March 8, so mark your calendars!  Invitations will be out soon.
