CUTIE Kids and New Sets!

Thought I would share a few new pics of the kids and what they are up to this Summer! Chels is buy being a Teenager and also in the process of Running a cheer?Dance camp for girls this Summer I am so proud of her! I love her Pink hair! Andrew went to Boy Scout Camp lat week and had a blast. Miss Abi attended VBS and also has been going to Theater Camp for the past 2 weeks and they had there production Friday night, I will have to say I am so very impressed with how well the kiddos do for two weeks practice! Nathan has been busy playing in the water, Dad says he has been jumping at the diving board and sliding down the water slide at his Nanny's pool. Little Jacob is 5 months old and up on his knees wanting to catch up with Nathan! Lewis is 3 months and laughing and talking. I can not believe that they get so big so quick. Okay here are a few quick pics of the cuties!

The Cow says MOOO and other things

FINALLY I have listed a new set. Isn't my niece Lilly adorable! Cute saying for the week: I told my Niece I made her a cowboy hat and her response was"Aunt Sharon Why didn't you make me a Cowgirl Hat" Got to love those cuties! You can find it listed here.














































I will be listing this OOAK Ready to ship set tomorrow just in time for the July Fourth Celebrations!



Do you coupon? My Daughter got me hooked on couponing a while back and I am wondering why I have never done it before! I have cabinets full of Groceries like never before. Here are some of my recent deals! I buy a Dallas paper every Sunday that has an extra coupon section added to it and then I scour the sales adds! CVS Walgreens and Rite Aid(which we do not have) Have Super deals a lot of times but you have to learn how to use there money back coupons! I added some couponing blogs to my side bar that are excellent money saving resources!

Walgreens Deals! Total amount spent 2.22!!!! I had coupons for everything and added a money back coupon of $3.00 from the previous week!


















CVS Deal I spent $0.00 here. I actually had to buy a pack of gum since I had a $3.00 Cash credit not to lose money.


















Kroger Deal... I love that they double and triple coupons here all the time as well as our Brookishires. Total spent on all these goodies was $10.00!!! I snagged the Dishwasher Detergent for 50 cents with $2.50 coupons that I had.

















Have a Wonderful Week!

Sewing projects and other things

I mentioned in past posts my oldest Grandson has been taking sewing lessons from me for about a month now. His first project was a gift for his mom for Mothers Day. I think he did an excellent job. Andrew I give you an A+ for your first project. I do not think he realized he would have to be doing some Math taking sewing lessons! All that is missing below is Chelsea. I guess a trip to Starbucks is in order so I can snap some pictures!























Of Course Miss Abi need to do a project for mom as well! I love her picture! I have not talked her into sewing lessons yet!






















We watched Nathan and Jacob Saturday and could not resist snapping a photo in their matching outfits!
























I took this picture of my Mom and Lewis when we visited last week. I thought it was a wonderful photograph
























One last thing, my hubby has taken up gardening and I can not resist adding a picture of our "Urban Garden" I will have to say that everything looks fantastic and I am hoping that we have some fresh veggies on our table soon!
