Life Through The Lens

 Alternate Post Title: Instagram Dump

1. I've caught the crafting bug. I made these shirts for the boys. They are a huge hit every time they wear them. The tractors are on the front and the words on the back. {Very appropriate, I might say}

2. This is afghan #5, using my grandmothers ripple pattern. Mo-Tay doesn't know it yet, but he will be receiving this one for his 8th birthday {which is coming up...much quicker than I would like}

3. Love this sign. I kept seeing versions of them on Pinterest. This is my spin on the pin. I ending up making two- one for each of the boys and their rooms {just in time for them to give up their separate rooms and move in together}.

4. It's Sunday dinner..I've got pork chops but no Shake 'n Bake...so I made my own {with a little help from Google}. Verdict? We like it better than the store bought stuff, and it's healthier, as I can limit the sodium and make it with wheat bread.

5. As always, this months Kids Workshop at The Home Depot was a hit. Although, I think us, as the parents, end up enjoying it more than the kids.

6. I can take NO credit for this cake. But, isn't it cool? Hubby has a co-worker with connections to a 'cake-maker'. She's got talent. Yes she does. {It tastes REALLY good too}

6. My washer died.  I cried a little too, when it died.

My washer was old, loud, and took on water like it was the end of the world...making it "not-legal" {due to it's non-eco friendly nature). So I had to give up my water guzzling ways for this contraption. The boys think it is "super-cool". Me? Eh...I'm learning to appreciate it.
