Woo Hoo!

The tummy bug has passed, and my tooth (which got a temporary yesterday) is feeling MUCH better this morning! I'm gunna catch up on this load of email (we're talkin over 100) I have here and we will be back to regular programing by tomorrow! Thank God for a wonderful dentist and a good night's sleep! I haven't felt good since Friday so my excitement level is just ridiculous right now (hence the slight overuse of exclamation marks), but it just feels so good to feel good again!
Look for a tutorial on ruffle piping sometime this week. Now that should excite you!

Glad you are feeling better. Those two things by themselves are a pain.. I cannot imagine both at the same time

Can you believe that if you water flowers, they will grow? I'm glad your feeling better.

I'm so glad you're feeling better-- nothing worse than a toothache and a tummy bug, you poor thing. I'm looking forward to the ruffle piping tutorial!

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
