new years resol-what?

How many of my peeps out there (all four of you, lol) do New Years Resolutions? And how are those resolutions coming? I did make a list for the new year, not so much "resolutions" but more of a list of goals i wanted to accomplish this year. Well, the year is half over and the list got lost somewhere in this house and I just now found it. I figured maybe if I post it then maybe some stuff would get done on it!

Things to do in 09:

-Finish my quillow (i started this back in 01' before i moved to colorado)
-Make Ty a quillow and a quilt out of his baby blankets
-Do 5 crafty projects (make that 4 after the mommys day project)
-Organize photos online and in albums
-Take a scrapbooking and/or sewing class
-Take a dance class
-Use cloth shopping bags
-GET ORGANIZED
-purge
-get rid of clutter
-stop buying stuff i dont need
-make a master cleaning schedule
-Make a vision board
-work on blog (i guess i can check this one off!)
-Get Ty on a schedule
-Adopt a healthier lifestyle
-Try a new recipe once a week
-Find a church home
-Finish everything I start
-Make a family "credo" or rules/morals to live by
-Make some friends -Find my purpose (feelin a little lost right now..)
So, there's my list...I hope this will help in my motivation to "get er done!"

a mothers day project

I forgot to post this! I saw this project somewhere and immediately thought of my mom! She loves scrabble and this was perfect for me to make. After searching thrift stores for a used scrabble games with no luck, i just used the one we already had here. In the instructions, it said to glue tacks to the letters and then push the tacks through the board. Unfortunately, half of the letters popped off, so i just glued them to the board itself ( i figured my mom wouldnt be changing the names on it anyway). Another thing I would change would be to cut the openings the same size bcus i had a hard time sizing the pictures to the openings after i had already cut them. All in all, i was pleased the way it came out! http://photojojo.com/content/diy/scrabble-board-picture-frame/
