Lost in a Daze

I think I have a case of 'Vacation-itis'. Doesn't seem to be any other way to describe it. We got back early (2:00 a.m.) this past Saturday (4th) and I've been exhausted every since! Our handicapped daughter has been 'acting up' so that doesn't help. I've got some serious organization to do and I'm gonna be brave and show you my mess. 
Our twins turned 7 on Tuesday and I'm separating them from the room they've shared since they were 1. It still has all of the paintings from 'Winnie the Pooh' on the wall. I miss them being babies! Well.....sort of....

 








I've promised our daughter a fresh coat of pink (lt. Pink) paint on the walls. Our son has inherited the back bedroom that his older brother had. Currently it houses my 'mess'.
Ouf....this is embarrassing!
 I'm not showing the other side of the room! It's actually just a wall of bins that are filled with inventory.
Anyway, the little feller needs the room and the twins are too old to be together anymore. They've got that whole 'Boy/Girl' thing going on and it's more than time.
SO, I'll be organizing and cleaning these spaces all weekend. It'll keep me busy and keep my mind off missing my hubby:(
This is on my table to finish.
I HATE stuffing arms and legs but need to get these dolllies dressed and ready for the holidays.
DON'T FORGET to sign up for my ETSY Giveaway HERE!
I'll have something to share with you soon from the OFG Team, too!
Stay Tuned!

My Mother's Day Weekend!

Good Monday morning Friends!
I'm up and 'at 'em' this morning! I've cleaned carpets and have 3 loads of laundry already finished and half folded! A 'Tornado' blew through my house over the weekend and I've given up on those ever-so-elusive cleaning Fairies! 
I hope you had a lovely Mother's Day weekend. Here's mine in a nutshell!
We, the twins and I, spent the morning organizing toys and getting rid of unwanted items.
I was able to go out on Friday and pick up some Closet Maid Storage tools from Target.
I picked up 2 of these in the Oak color and the little canvas bins that go with them. I let the kids pick out there colors which were no surprise: pink for Anna Belle and green for Tate.Organizing and cleaning took up most of our day and I spent the remaining afternoon hours letting them swim and then catching the last 2 episodes of "Lost" on NetFlix. WOW. How appropriately named was that TV show? I did receive a SWEET surprise from our eldest: TJ.
He sent me this!
I was so excited to receive it that I forgot to take a photo of my own. This is from the 'Edible Arrangements' website. We're lucky enough to have one near us! The other '2' phoned me with 'I Love You's' on Sunday. I also received a call from my beloved early Sunday morning.......sigh.......just made me miss him more.
I received a sweet Giveaway win from Cyndy over at Crafty Stitchers that I wanted to share with you. 
I sat her beside my 'Candy Cane Annie' from Sandy at The Olde Country Cupboard. 
She seems to be content and happy! Thank you AGAIN, Cyndy!!
Our wonderful Gals over at the OFG Team have put together another celebration for us! 
We'll be launching it this week so look for another announcement from me and our great Artisan team members!!!
As always......
Stay Tuned!
