Newest fairy houses

Man, I've had a long day today and it's only 9:00 am! I've been up since 4 something because that's when Tad decided to get up. I've had 3 cups of coffee, did the dishes, a couple loads of laundry, cleaned out the litter box (outside, with the hose pipe) Yeah, I know that's supposed to be Lexie's job, but the cat still poops even though she's not here! Swept the floors, boiled some eggs, made chicken salad, watered the house plants and caught up on some blog reading. I still don't feel like I've woke up yet. That's just way too much for me to do that early. I am so not a morning person. I'm still sooo sleepy, and I have plenty more things to get done. All I want to do is crawl back in bed!
Anyway, I thought I'd post the new fairy houses I made over the weekend... If you can't see... those are cattails by the little creek and a little bunny rabbit sitting there by it. I made a stone pathway from the bridge to the tree trunk house.

This one is a two story fairy mushroom with a rope ladder going up to the top. Yeah, I know fairies can fly, but I thought a ladder would be cute. There's a tree swing and behind the tree is a fence with stone columns. Maybe you can click to enlarge these... I'm not sure.
Bobby and Tad played with bubbles yesterday evening... right after I had mopped. Yea! sticky floor again! I took some pictures of the two of them together that were cute, but Bobby didn't have his shirt on, and would wring my neck if I put them on here!



I think I'm gonna go make another cup of coffee!....

More pictures from Monday

Here are some of the pics that I didn't post the other night. The peg doll on the left is the one Mom made. She asked me to paint the face on for her, but I've been too scared to do it because I don't want to mess it up!

She made these cute little mushrooms...
I meant to post about Mothers Day, but haven't yet... Bobby was so sweet and got me the pinking shears that I have been wanting for months, but just couldn't justify spending $15 dollars on! He got me a new pair of flip-flops... muchly needed... and a 6-pack of my 5 hour energy shots!!! I was very excited!!! He even got me two Mothers day cards! He is such a thoughtful and good man, he really does treat me good... I am so lucky to have him. I know you may think that those are such small things, but we can't really afford big expensive gifts right now, and those were such sweet, thoughtful presents. He knows me so well and I love him so much... Lexie made me a bouquet of flowers out of construction paper and straws... very cute, and made me a little coupon booklet with things like.. "I will clean house for the next 12 years" "I will do the dishes for the next 4 years" "I will give you 100 kisses" I said, the next twelve years huh? and she says "yeah I'll be 20 then... I counted it up" I thought that was so funny. Hopefully she'll be off at college by then, but maybe I should hold on to that coupon. It might come in handy :)

My crafty Monday

I had another crafting day today. I know you must think that I don't get anything done around here. Actually, I haven't really. Just been enjoying myself. Mom came over and we just made a day of it. Tomorrow I will get back to the housework.

Here's my little clown peg doll. I absolutely hate clowns, I think they're just creepy. I'm not really sure why I made it, but one thing's for certain... it won't be staying here at my house.

My little Chinese girl

Mushrooms...
Garden signs... I made a few more, but will have to get the pics up later.
Mom's cute little mushroom. It was absolutely perfect until I broke one of the flower petals off while taking the picture. Sorry mom...
It's late now, I'll have to post the rest of our little crafts tomorrow...

Pictures

Here are the mushrooms we made yesterday...

This is my sparkly mushroom with a little dragon fly tattoo on it and mom's fairy. I didn't realize how blurry this picture was until I got it on here, but they are really cute in person...Yeah, I know, this plant looks dead... but, it's not.
Soft serve choc/vanilla ice cream pin
Hot dog
Plate of fortune cookies
Head of lettuce. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it. It's too big to fit on a pin. Oh, and excuse the flash. I took these pictures up against the kitchen cabinets and it reflected horribly!
