How-To for my Dinner Menu Board

It's now up and in good use! It's already been so helpful in my house. In the Craft Inspirations and DIY tab, you will find how I made so you can get an idea. Make it cute, pretty and make it YOURS!!! If you are naturally super organized, you might not need this but I sure did, haha! Don't you hate when you plan your meals for the week while shopping and when it comes down to making your meal you forgot to buy something....ugh! I really needed a menu board since I'm a little forgetful at times, hehehe.  

I admit...I need to add more embellishments to it, but I'm waiting until I come across something I really like rather than just throw some on there. Since this project has lots of steps, I decided to make the more detailed instructions available on Google Docs.

Remember when you are making yours, do it to fit your personality and customize it however you want. I fell in love with these colors and I didn't realize that it ended up matching my dining room...ha! 

Our Dog, Moka

Looks like Moka got a hold of the laptop.

My Dinner Menu Board

Alright...I've been working on my Menu Board this week. I can't tell you how badly I need one! I'm so forgetful when I'm at the grocery store so hopefully this will help, hehe! I think I need some more embellishments so it's not completely done. As soon as I'm done gathering the pictures, I'll post how I made it. 

Family Day and Some Horses

We had a blast spending time with our family the other day. First we went over Wayne's uncle's house and he has the prettiest horses! I so want some one day when we live out in the country. And what else do people do when they are with family...EAT!!! Yup, we are soon going to double our size...hahaha. Then after throwing the football around a while and hanging with them, we headed to my  brother's house and ate some more! We're so blessed to have such wonderful families.

Stamped Coasters from Bathroom Tiles

Go to my Craft Inspirations and DIY to find out how I made these stamped coasters. They are pretty cheap, $4 for a pack of 9 at Home Depot or Lowe's. I have them all over our house and made some to give. I hope you like!

Quick Trip to See Georgia Peaches

 

Our bags were packed as soon as we had the opportunity to visit some of Wayne’s family that live just outside of Atlanta.  Although it was a LONG way to drive, it sure was fun and I’m ready to go again! It took us about 20 hours just to get there from the time we left our house…and that’s just one way :-P

Unfortunately, we did not have enough time in Georgia but we did zoom over to the Georgia Aquarium, the world’s largest aquarium, and I was in AWW. I felt like a kid in there and had to be pulled out of there by Wayne.

I touched a manta ray, sharks, and a star fish!

Look how big the whale shark looks
compared to everyone.

At the world's biggest aquarium.

We also strolled around the
famous Centennial Olympic Park 

The next day, we stuffed our brains out with the best food EVER at their family get together with the best Georgians, I'm glad I got to meet Wayne's maternal grandmother's side. The state is beautiful just like these people.
