pinterest

I am a big fan of Pinterest. I found out about this online pinning tool a while ago from a friend who loves to be crafty. I am always looking for DIY projects, recipes, etc. To find inspiration I just look at pinterest. If you have not checked it out - head over there now!

I found this cute idea to make your own coasters out of tiles from Home Depot. I thought it was the cutest idea and would be a great little hostess or housewarming gift. I made some of them this week to give to a few family members. I think they turned out pretty great. I also think there is some room for improvement - backing of the tile - but overall I am pleased. Here are a few pictures of the completed project.

next up - shelving for the guest bedroom :)

This fall has been so much fun cheering on the Wildcats!
Tailgating with friends, the trips to Manhattan, the sea of purple in the stadium.

We are so excited that we purchased tickets this year! 
We have loved hanging out with old friends and making new ones!
Here are a few pics from the past weekends. Luckily we had only one day of rain.


* pretty sure the guy in the middle hates when I ask him to do the W - Cat! He smiled in the picture though - it can't be that bad!

The Apple Slicer

This is the best kitchen gadget ever
I am pretty sure this exact one I got my dad as a stocking stuffer a few years ago!
I wonder if he is missing it?
Probably - he is a big fan of the apple.
If you don't have one - hurry out and get one.
Look how quick I had an afternoon snack ready to go!
