Pallet Repurposing!

It has been ages since I have posted!!!! I wanted to post about one of the projects that we did for our backyard patio. We had a pallet that was delivered with some stone this Spring. The pallet wouldn't fit in my car so... I was able to keep it with some pursuation! First, we pressure washed the pallet to get rid of all of the dust and stone debris. I was able to find a package of hooks at WalMart: 6 for $7.00. My husband drilled the pilot holes and then attached with hooks with the included screws. Also, I found a slate chalkboard in the craft section at WalMart. Using chalk ink, I wrote "treats" on one side and "towels" on the other. We will be able to use the baskets for popcorn and snacks when we host backyard movie nights for our friends. When we are having sprinkler fun, we will be able to hang towels on the pallet for easy access. One nice thing about the baskets is that they can be easily removed for smores items and taken to the firepit area, also. I am looking forward to using our "treat station" quite a bit this Summer!!!

Out of Control Elf!

Our Elf, Kris, is out of control this year. Normally, he just hops from one spot to the next in our home but this year... I am beginning to wonder if he has gone crazy!!! I love how the kids run from room to room looking for him every morning. Each morning, so far, he has NOT disappointed us with his behavior! Kris arrives yearly on December 1st. This year he brought an entire breakfast! You have to LOVE an Elf that brings Krispy Kreme! Next, we found him in a "bubble bath" Gangnam Style... REALLY????????? Then, this morning... he ran off with Barbie in a hot pursuit! What WILL tomorrow bring???

The Beginnings of Fall...

Fall is my FAVORITE time of the year! I love the smell of firepits, the feeling of warm clothes and the abundance of hot cocoa :). I did it... I. Started. Decorating. I couldn't stop. I'm not done. But, here is a sneak peek into what I was able to accomplish yesterday on our front porch. We still need some pumpkins and a few other creations but I am happy with the progress so far. Lots of weeding and cleaning were completed along with Fall T-Ball practice. I am excited with the progress! Don't forget about the Giveaway on the Goosie and Boomer Facebook page!
