My birthday week has been wonderful (so far, I’m still celebrating!).

W00t for the Three Day Weekend!
The weather here is still gorgeous, although the forecasters say that will not last long. Nice quiet Saturday morning of coffee and potato & egg scramble. We’ll leave to take the van in for servicing in a bit.
I plan to work more on the craft room today. I found some brackets for the ribbon bar so I’ll put that up and maybe finish the wall. I’ll try and get some pics up of that. I’m also working on the other pages of this blog. And I need to start on planning next year’s curricula for the kiddos. Maybe a stop at the library would be a good idea for today.
No other big plans this weekend. BBQ with friends tomorrow, weather permitting, and hopefully a trip to Michael’s on Monday (got a good coupon in the email).
I may work on some fanfiction this weekend as well. A couple of plot bunnies for a NCIS/House crossover have been hopping around in my head. I’ll likely do those over at the elljay, maybe tomorrow night after a few drinks. 
I hope everyone’s weekend is lovely and fun!

Crafting!
I bought a bunch of cheap wooden frames from Ikea to make jewelry holds, memory boards, etc.
Emma and Charlotte joined in the fun!
Charlotte used white and blue paint and some cup hooks. She framed a pic of herself and her cousins at Cape May from a couple of summers ago.
Emma used paint, stickers, some fabric she had, ribbon and the cup hooks to maker her memory board and necklace holder.
I painted my frame and used some leftover mesh we had from fixing some window screens last year. Oh, and those handy cup hooks!
I also made a memory board. I used fabric from an old shirt and ribbons and buttons from my scrapbook stuff.
That’s my husband, on the bottom right, by the way. Wasn’t he adorable? 
We had SO much fun doing these!!
