Real mice creep me out.It's their tails that make my skin crawl.If it doesn't have fur on it's tail....I'd rather be in a room with a lion! However,this sweet little critter,well....I knew the minute I saw it Lilly would love it. I got the pattern here. <a href="http://motherrhythm.blogspot.com/2010/07/seriously-cute-mouse-tutorial.html">http://motherrhythm.blogspot.com/2010/07/seriously-cute-mouse-tutorial.html</a></div>

Sorry,it's been so long since I've posted anything.Yes,like a whole year! What can I say? Well,there's been a few big changes in my life.We have moved about 8 miles up the road. Our youngest graduated from college and has ended up on the west coast.Our sweet faithful labs,Hunter and Roxy are roaming fields in the sky instead of the local football field! No matter what we tried,couldn't keep those labs home!Maddie and Lilly continue to entertain us and fill our lives with such joy.Best of all,I have grown in my relationship with my Heavenly Father.He is totally awesome!!!!<br />
I have some completed projects I will be sharing.Terry has been building a playhouse from recycled barn wood.Which I'm sure you'll find interesting.I can't wait to decorate the inside.Yes,Maddie and Lilly you have to share with Mimi! Will be decorating the master bedroom on a puny budget.Hope you'll follow along,cause you never know what you'll find here! Could even be a mouse house!Tami / Maddie Lumpkinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06299824770182211355noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7471527480061552671.post-47631672401521309012012-02-27T18:33:00.004-08:002012-02-27T18:37:23.278-08:00Simple Art!<div style="text-align: center;">Okay,I'm a Pinterest addict and I'm not ashamed to admit it!

<ul><li>“To live content with small means.... To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion.... To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich.... To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly.... To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart.... To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never.... In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.... ...........this is to be my symphony.” ~*~William Henry Channing~*~</li>

Sometimes we just accumulate too many things and they no longer seem special. You see this Valentine, was picked just for me by my little granddaughter last Valentines Day from the local antique shop.It's special,because lots of love came with it.She was so proud when she gave it to me. The others have no meaning for me,other than I want to share them with you and I truly love giving things away!<br />

You will need fabric of choice, beans (if you want the bottoms weighted), fiber fill stuffing, embroidery floss(thread is too weak), pumpkin stem, and hot glue gun.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHfm4tl7bq4bClopgB9mzES0957joEX7v_3A54ttn85vOgGGc_Kl_j_D3VEazmjRLVKtJtJ0iX-CfKIuhlTxzbPdJgeU6rL6GzCOoGOa4ZVshqQR0wM6gOW5bwLonqBcDgi65fuyK3IMM/s1600/100_3714.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" ida="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHfm4tl7bq4bClopgB9mzES0957joEX7v_3A54ttn85vOgGGc_Kl_j_D3VEazmjRLVKtJtJ0iX-CfKIuhlTxzbPdJgeU6rL6GzCOoGOa4ZVshqQR0wM6gOW5bwLonqBcDgi65fuyK3IMM/s400/100_3714.JPG" width="400" /></a></div> Start with a circle of fabric. I traced a 16" pizza pan for a pumpkin about the size of a real pie pumpkin. The circle size can be rather deceiving,because you think a big circle will give you a big pumpkin. Not so!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRyWzVgTZIAFhyU268p4YLNS1AcuouHhEBJCf6etAMwhKz0gl6eFGNTrM7ZZqR1kUFwG5xdzKIOw-DgQt5o8be9pKcAYakNmIkVoXFezB3u6s0uPag7hDxB6WqU8kDRQ5L0tj4DlCIolw/s1600/100_3720.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" ida="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRyWzVgTZIAFhyU268p4YLNS1AcuouHhEBJCf6etAMwhKz0gl6eFGNTrM7ZZqR1kUFwG5xdzKIOw-DgQt5o8be9pKcAYakNmIkVoXFezB3u6s0uPag7hDxB6WqU8kDRQ5L0tj4DlCIolw/s400/100_3720.JPG" width="400" /></a></div> Next, using a full strand of embroidery floss in a big eye needle baste around the edge of the circle. I used fairly large stitches. Make sure you have a decent knot in the end of the floss before you start basting.The knot will have to withstand a lot of stress.<br />
<br />

DO NOT unthread your needle. You will need to stitch the hole tightly closed later.<br />

A few months ago I decided to try a couple of things to see what could really be had for FREE. You know the saying," If it's too good to be true". Well, I have found there are some great freebies out there. In the last nine months I have earned enough Swagbucks to get 13 five dollar Amazon gift cards! Yep,$65.00! All you have to do is sign up and remember to log in. Then the points just pop up here and there. If you get referrals you earn points from that too. Want to start earning? Click the link below.<br />
<div class="referLoggedInLink"> <a href="http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/spitsnogle">http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/spitsnogle</a><br />
</div><div class="referLoggedInLink"></div><div class="referLoggedInLink">Another great program is Coke Rewards. The reward codes are inside Coke product caps and boxes. These add up super fast,especially if family and friends save them for you. I no longer pay for magazine subscriptions,because I get them for FREE. Best of all my two favorites, Country Living & Better Homes and Gardens are on the list with many others.

I have a habit of doing this! I'm a spontaneous person to a fault! In fact I pretty much live on the spur of the moment. At times, I've thought,"What if something were to happen to me? No one knows where I'm at.They would never look here." Then when they found me,I could here my family saying,"You know how she was.She never would listen to anyone.Yep,we told her, but she was going to do it her way." Then my mom would tell the story she's told a hundred times,"When she was 12 years old I put this sweet,shy, little girl to bed and the next morning she woke up a completely different child." Yep,that's what they'd say! So...... what I found off the beaten path today.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">As a kid I remember older folks using the term"ending up in the poor house".I always believed it to be just a term meaning one was broke. Well, recently I did a little research on this building. I have passed this gorgeous piece of fine architecture a bazillion times in my life. I'm kinda obsessed with this place. Just ask my husband! Well come to find out,this was built to house the poor in the 1800's.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Sometime during the 1900's it was used by or for a bible college. Now she just sits crumbling away peacefully to the music of birds that have made their homes in her trees. A more serene place I have not encountered. Despite the broken windows and boarded up doors she is still beautiful in an almost spiritual kind of way.<br />

I've been buying them when I come across them. We all know times are tough. It breaks my heart to think of any child going without or being embarrassed their family can't afford the basics. I can remember being so excited about school shopping as a kid. I also remember a few kids who didn't have supplies and the thought still makes me sad. So......I'm challenging my followers who are able to start picking up supplies and donating them. Maybe even fill a backpack or two! What seems like basic school supplies to some of us can be a huge self esteem boost to a child. Let's send as many kids as we can back to school with a smile on their face!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
