Hurry up, Summer....

Well, it's no surprise that it's been FOREVER since I blogged... Geez. I should be ashamed. I guess between a full time job, boyfriend, and (collectively) 5 kids I have stayed pretty busy. It's been lots of fun, though. I just haven't crafted much. Last weekend, however, the bf and I got crackin' on a super fun spring/summer project. Of course, it was 30 degrees out. Go figure... Will winter ever end? Really. Anyway, we used plans you can find at http://www.ana-white.com/ (go Ana!! She used to do the knock off wood blog and now has that page) to start making the outdoor sectional. So far we made one section. :) Here are the fabulous photos I took.

The handsome bf cutting: (I bet my dad is glad to have someone do my wood cutting besides him!)

All cut and ready to go....
Finished product:
Now I just need to figure out fabric for the cushions. Well, and we need to make like 6 more sections. :)


We also got another member of the family: Little Rico. His is part Maltese and part Yorkie (Morkie). Cute as all get out. Weighing in at a whopping 5 lbs!


Well, I think that's all I have for now. I'm sure I'll be back. In like July of course. ;)
