Ultimate Tribute Dance Party

We were sad to hear about Michael Jackson's death.
Shaw and I were talking and think the Michael Jackson that made all that great music died awhile ago. He got weirder and weirder as time went on.
We do love his music.
What better way to celebrate his life, then blasting his music and dancing around.


being sad.

we played it all.


dancing... complete with glove!
Shaw... moonwalk.

Allie was a good girl and enjoyed the berries as we worked.

Heidi's Hall on www.etsy.com


I'm selling some cool art on Etsy.
It's like an ebay... but for hand made and crafty things.
I have made 9 mosaics with magazine papers and I think they look pretty cool.
I lost some hours this summer and was hoping to sell some to make up for my lost $ and to fill my time.
Check it out... Heidi's Hall... let me know what you think...

Pooh Bear!

What cool neighbors we have. Pooh Bear came to town for their little ones 2nd b-day.

I didn't know Pooh Bear liked Bud Light.


Oh it's Shaw.

Pooh Bear was being a little inappropriate.

The Carlson Crew.

The lucky Birthday girl who Pooh Bear came to see. Mady Moo.


I'm looking forward to Mady's 3rd b-day party. A Pooh Bear party complete with Pooh might be hard to beat.

our doors

A blog about doors. ok. Possibly kinda boring for you... but not for me.
Shaw put in a new front door a week ago. It is awesome. My 2 favorite parts about it is that:
It opens with ease (which our old one did not do towards the end of it's life) and
It lets in some light. (old one also did not provide that)
I also think it looks quite nice too.

and we got new numbers

This project has been long over due. I finally thought of a good way to fix the ugly swan and flowery frosted glass on the door to the water heater and cleaning stuff closet. A few weeks ago I think Shaw said something like "I'm surprised you haven't done anything to those yet"... and well... I was too... so I did. I used scrapbook paper and taped it up. I think it looks cool I think, it might be a little busy but that hallway (going up to our room) is boring... like most hallways. I think I like it and hopefully Shaw does too...


Woody likes it... he told me.
