Feature Friday!

I gotta tell ya.  These ladies are putting me to shame.  I did laundry today, and I did have a sense of accomplishment.  Please go say hi and welcome these bloggers to our “circle of friends”!

Ronda at Batchelor’s Way is new to blogland.  You really need to see what she’s done to her sons’ rooms.  Here’s just a sneak peak.

She also took on the brave task of updating her island, and it turned out spectacular!  WHY can’t I take the plunge and do this?

Chrissie Grace from…well…Chrissie Grace has so much eye candy, you’re not going to want to leave!  Seriously, she’s such an artist, and I love seeing all the things she can do.  She’ll even throw a tutorial in there from time to time.  Lucky us!

Looks like she caught on to the burlap craze, eh?  Can we blame her?  The #5…she did it.  Nice!

Mandi at Blessed at Home is smack dab in the middle of some BIG projects!  She’s nearly done with the huge task of resurfacing her kitchen cabinets!  You must run over there to see what these looked like before.  She’s kind enough to give a break down of what was done.  I’m tired just from reading it!

My favorite?  Her husband just built this library for her!  Yes, I said her husband built it.  Yes, I said she has a library.  Hello!  I’m so envious, I don’t even know if we can be friends!  I can’t WAIT to see how she fills it all up!

Okay….I guess I have been doing something.  Below is a picture my son took of me.  Apparently, he needs to brush up on his photography skills.

Can you tell what’s been keeping me busy for the past three years week?  It’s almost ready.
