Check this out...it's a FALL SWAP.  If you are interested, go visit Laura, she is the organizer of this.  It is really fun!  Even if you don't want to be in the FALL SWAP...go check out her blog--she is so creative.  She lives here in my neck of the woods, she has the cutest little boy AND she is a Front Row Rock Star in Photography here in my town!  {Love} {Love} {Love} her work. 

This past weekend...I accomplished MUCH.  And I'm so glad.  My camper has been cleaned and ready to winterize. Bought new knobs for my bathroom cabinet and got them on and got all the sawdust out of the drawers.  Saturday morning, left early for Hobby Lobby, picked up frames and some misc I needed to get the boys' rooms decorated.  While watching my KSU WILDCATS kick the 'Canes on Saturday, I whipped up a batch of my own laundry soap~it was super easy and so far, I like it.  After that...I decided I wanted to do a practice run on making a pillowcase...(I'm thinking Christmas gift) and so I dug out my sewing machine, blew off the cobwebs...whipped up a pillowcase...not yet hemmed...could NOT find my pins and sewing misc from moving.  But it was easy, I haven't totally forgot how to thread my machine!

After supper, I headed back to the basement to organize my scrapbook stuff and it turned into a card-making frenzy!  It was so nice to have space for my stuff and when I was done, I threw a sheet over the table and went upstairs.  Good weekend...just not long enough.

Did I mention that this could be the LOngEsT post

EVAH?????????

If I haven't bored you to tears...read on.

Look at that dust...

Our bathroom/closet remodel has brought all this 

lovely dust into our bedroom.  

Such a mess.  But going to be sooooo worth it.

My new Onyx countertop/sink and new faucet.

{Love it}

FYI~Onyx is a man-made solid surface.

Made here in Kansas!

This is my NEW shower...only I can't seem to get the picture

to rotate and STAY...so go ahead, turn your head to the left

and use your imagination. ;)

Today when I got home...the floor was tiled too.  I used the same tile

only in a 12x12.  Tomorrow he will grout it all.  We are in week 3 of destruction/construction

and I'm ready to get back to normal.  I will try to get better pics of everything...ya know, right side up and all.

Yesterday, we shot skeet...JB got a new 12 gauge and he was anxious to try it out

Our neighbors we had in town came out and we had hamburgers later.  It was such a beautiful day/evening

it was a treat to be outside.

ZB taking his turn.

CB giving orders for his clay pigeons

I thought this was a cool pic...it's our friend, Russ

I liked the shadow-look it had.

Fruits of our labor??? lol

ZB...was NOT wearing the shoe of choice.  He agreed after he trapsed thru

the corn field picking up clay pigeons!
