The Pintrest effect

Pintrest. Some call it 'Crack for crafters.' I call it my new bestie. I love it. But, I don't want to only pin pictures, I want to use these ideas for my home. This idea was the very first thing I saw and "pinned" to my boards. I got the jug for free and the lights half off after Christmas a few days ago. Next I'm going to try out Martha Stewart's best homemade bathtub cleaner that was pinned on someone's board.

it is what it is

My SIL said it best on her blog. "Please inspire me to blog again." Or something to that effect. That's how I've felt lately so I just don't. I've got tons of pictures to post and I don't like to post without pinning pictures.

Having a family pass to the zoo is the best idea ever. We'll go through there real quick, take our time, do sections, it's just the greatest for kids. Especially with our weather we're having. Well, for us, it's cold now, but it's still nice to go and have a picnic afterwards.

I'm glad they get excited about these. I used to like them when I was younger and we had one as a class pet. Totally didn't mind when it peed on me. Now, I'll just watch my kids pet them.
