Outdoor lights - used indoors???
For 15 years we have had these lights on our fireplace and I've hated them.  I don't know why the builder chose to put this type of light inside, but finally today that changed to this...

Joel changed them for me today - Part of the remodel and I love them!

The boys spent the evening downstairs playing X box on this HUGE screen television.  It's actually a projector and the wall is painted and framed and has speakers in the bottom!  Awesome sound and awesome view!

The girls

Last night I went to my nephews birthday party and all the girls and a couple of the boys were singing songs on the Wii from High School Musical.  My niece who is 14 and all the younger girls were having a blast and knew all the words. I however knew none?

My sister in law was shocked to hear that I've never seen High School Musical 1 or 2.  I guess its the difference in having boys and girls...

School was called off yesterday!  I actually couldn't believe it because the roads weren't really that bad and there wasn't that much snow.  But Joel had said the roads were worse earlier in the morning.  Either way I never mind having the kids home.  Chelsea ended up getting some extra hours at work and Zach and I went to lunch and then met up with Tom to get the supplies to work on my room.

Here is the mini book I wrote about in an earlier post that I used some of the supplies I picked up from Hollo's.  I used the 4 X 8 pieces of chipboard.
I love how you can tell a story in a mini book.  They come together quickly, you can play with all types of supplies.  You can easily make them for a gift or for yourself.
This mini is from the Work in Progress project kit for February

Necklace - One of my favorites from Anilu

After seeing all the scraprooms on the Work in Progress blog I loved this basket when Trish showed her room and today while running through Target (one of what seems my daily stops!) I spotted this baby and it came home with me.

 
Not too shabby for 14.99.  Now I'm just not sure if I'm going to keep the color or spray paint it another color.  If I change the color I'll be sure to post.

The good news... The LOST season premier is tonight!
