Blogging Besties

-
A few months ago I stumbled upon Krysten's wonderful blog Why Girls Are Weird and before I knew it I was coming back week after week to learn more about her. A few weeks ago she posted about a Blogging Besties Swap. It started with a personality test and I was matched with Elizabeth of E is Random She loves to read and travel (like me) and loves anything peanut butter and chocolate (another similarity) she likes deep jewel toned colors and shoes (who doesn't) and she is afraid of spiders.. (kill them all! says the insectophobic) oh and she's a first born :)

Now that the introductions had been made we were to put together a package of goodies for each other.. here are a few sneak peeks of what I'm sending her.. can't give too much away, wouldn't want to ruin the surprise..




I may have gone bit heavy on the blue!? Plus I forgot to take a picture of the wrapping.. also blue.. hope she likes it.

I'll share what I got soon.. so excited!

Kitchen and Family Room: New Flooring

-

When the wall between our family room and kitchen see details here came down we had to deal with two different flooring, old carpet and newish laminate. The plan was to find the same laminate.. we found the box in the basement, how hard could it be? Harder than we thought.. that particular one had been discontinued.. and finding something similar was not an easy task..  Finding a flooring that was kind of close but not close enough would seem like a mistake.. so we decided to go different, this way it would seem like an intentional design choice.. I had always wanted a chocolaty dark floor.. The next thing to take into consideration was the transition between the two floors.. generally what is used it a T- Moulding, that strip you see in the above picture connecting the two floors together. Not the prettiest option. Pinterest to the rescue..  Adding tile to the mix would help to blend the two different brown together and there would be no awkward bump in the floori

D's Amazing Race Party

Last weekend our eldest turned 9.. and we threw him an amazing race birthday party! As with all the boys other parties.. I bought a plain white cake from Wegmans and let D decorate it himself. We had a total of nine kids.. they picked bandanna's out of a bag to create 3 teams. First Task Not all the kids knew each other.. they were too amped up with the idea of winning that they couldn't manage to calm down and read the clue.. so we had to really guide them through it.. they made mistakes and we let it go.. it seemed a tad chaotic..  Second Task I had 33 little medicine cups filled with M&M's and Goldfish crackers.. 6 of them had stickers on the bottom. The first two teams found the sticker in the first try... what are the odds!? And the third team had to eat a lot of snacks before they finally found their sticker. Third Task I bought 48 piece puzzles from the Dollar Tree. The boys took their time making
