March at a glance!!

So much to update to everyone, Last weekend my cousin came over and we made a pair of p.j.s I think they turned out super cute although you can't see the fabric great in this shot.
second I am sure some of you out there have heard about me complaining that three out of my four teachers this year are having babies. One of the teacher requested that I make her baby a owl hat and since she didn't find out what she is having and her last day was this past Tuesday I had to make two of these hats for her. They turned out sooo cute and of course everyone at the school now wants them again. I also made a cute blanket and a car cover that I need to take pictures of and then post them for you all to see. I will I promise, as this is my last week for catch up, I start a job on the first for the month of April working for a accountant, and then I am going back to school in May I fear my crafting days will have to be placed on hold for a little while... I am super excited about the job and school so I guess since I made the decision there is no use in whining about not crafting....I still will have my evening when I'm not at basketball right?

My Ana-white designs.......so far

I love Ana-white.com she has so many cool wood projects for you do do around your home and they are fairly easy to follow and do. Here is my hutch and desk in the works we still need to finish the desk and make doors to go on them. I two tone painted it and love how it looks don't you??? It is so much fun doing these projects and customizing everything for our house.

We are in the middle of project galore but I wanted to show you all how they are coming along.......here is the shelves above my desk they still need the doors.

Happening the first two weeks of March

Janelle is my go getter and player, one fine day she decided to play out side in the snow.... however there wasn't much to play in she had to go to the snow banks and play because everything else was mostly gone.......I love happy children playing and creating.

This is what happens in the middle of a re-purposing project when I left the room Greg made the old lamp shade into s skirt.

For school Janelle need to make a Leprechaun trap here is the final project, we made a hat with a ladder so that when he climbs it he will fall into the top and get stuck, now Janelle didn't want him to get hurt so we put a pillow inside for him to land on. Then she got to take it to school where a real live leprechaun came and left his little hat behind along with a rainbow eraser and chocolate for her. So lucky to be young and believe everything.....

OUr little Lizard is doing great who would have thought that I could like something like her although well she is shedding I will not touch her but thought that everyone should see how she looks when she is getting the new skin. Here is the gross part....after she sheds she gets it. This is to protect them from their predators.

A Party Night, Fun Had By All

Also in Feb a group of us went to the President's Ball it was held at the Stake center, there was live big band music and chocolate fondue and yummy treats plus dancing we can't forget the dancing. Our friends the Caldwell rocked the house they have taken lessons and I think put the bug in me to take them too if I can look as good out there.

Valentine day treats for the sweet.

Here we are in March and I am posting from Feb....I guess at least i am posting. I need to get better at this.
For Valentines day my friend Ginger and I made these super cute fab necklaces for our kids to wear. Did you guess gumballs yes and so easy to make you just have to be careful how hard you pull the ribbon through so you don't crack the ball. Greg was to cool to wear his to school but he did let me take this picture first. You have to love him for being so grown up but at the same time I wish he was still my little boy..... Also I made sugar cookies and wrote everybody's name on them. Alina's name was shorter so I had to add some squiggle hearts in her to make them equal. Even James and I got our very own cookies. Super fun and the kids LOVED them.

I`ve got to get healthier

Because I am sure you all have nothing better to do then hear me blab about all things in the Northcott house here it goes......I have been wondering the right way to proceed in getting healthy?? There are so many choices out there.
When we moved to Lethbridge I got put on weekly injections for my meds to help with the Arthritis and lets just say they are kicking my butt big time. In the beginning I felt like a new person now however I am dizzy and feel like morning sickness for two days after I get the shot. I know I am whining a bit here but just think that in 7 days I feel sick for 2 of them. Which means i have 5 days a week to be normal. It is no longer enough for me I need a better life then this. so I now am posed with this question what am i suppose to do. I know that once I get myself healthier I will feel better and hope that the meds wont play with my head as much. Besides when I am doing what I know is right I really feel that my disease will go into some what of a remission. So here I am at the beginning of my post what should I do.
