Monday! Monday!

Happy Monday! 

Well this weekend went by pretty quickly! We are still passing among us various colds and sniffles; not sure what else I can do as a Mom to prevent it! I clean all the surfaces, prepare good healthy meals, change the bed linen very frequently as I have heard it's a germ magnet...we wash our hands alot...Can't think of anything else. I think my daughter is the carrier from school where EVERYONE is sick all the time.

I hope you had a great weekend! After a visit with very creative friends on Friday, I was really excited to start sewing and made a few little things. I have to finish them but it has been so fun to work with fabric again. I've been doing mostly embroidery so this is a refreshing change. I made a few throw pillows with a stamped image of an Amish couple. I'm currently making a table runner for my livingroom. I just started that. Nothing too involved cause I really don't do the best job! I try though!

I want to make a few new things for my bedroom. My husband just repainted the walls from a light green to a light tan. Our comforter is black barn stars so I think I'd like to make a few things to match. On my next trip to PA I have to get my new window treatments to match the comforter. 

Waiting for our first big snow too! Surprisingly we haven't had a major snowfall! Usually my son's birthday is always under snow! His birthday is February 2nd (next weekend) and almost always when we go out for his birthday dinner, we have had to shovel the driveway! Well, we are going out Friday night and we'll see what happens! 

On the menu this week:  my Mom loves minestrone soup so I made her some. We have to be careful with what she eats so thank goodness she loves vegetables and I can make some good meals for her that she enjoys. 

That's about it for me! Every Monday I go on the website for Lakeside aka as LTD to see what new stuff they post! I love their products so much. I order quite a bit and I've never been disappointed. If you don't know about the site its www.lakeside.com   lots of fun stuff! 

Have a great day!
