Year of the Monkey

OK, so seeing as how B has been celebrating Chinese New Year in school the last few days, we've learned a little about our Chinese 'signs.' T, as it turns out is a Monkey and they tend to be pretty funny/lively. Well, this morning, the sign proved to be true. We were sitting around the breakfast table and T asked for a drink of my tomato juice. I gave her a sip and she got a pretty funny look on her face. She then said, "It makes me die!" We all cracked up at that and she thought she was pretty clever for making us laugh. Anyway, I hope this brightens your day as well.

Happy Chinese New Year Everyone!!!

I AM alive.

I'm just in hiding. I've been doing projects here and there around the house. Mostly organizing, boring projects that don't deserve the attention of my camera. So, that's why I haven't been posting lately. Anyway, this is just me, sending out love into the abyss to you, my 'avid' reader.

Talia's Room

I just finished redoing T's Room. Here are a couple of pictures of the before:

And here are the after shots:

Do you think that I need to paint the butterflies on these walls too? Hubby thinks it will be too much, and I can't decide. Any opinions?
