Halloween 2010

Halloween was so fun! I made dinner, Monika and Michael made home made ice cream and rootbeer, my mom made spanish rice...and we just had fun together. We sat outside on Saturday (one trick or treater) and Sunday. It was fun! People also kept commenting on my milk jug ghosts. They took no time to make and they were a hit! Guess I'll save them for next year! I loved spending time with my family!

This my sister's dog Lilly!

Help! Need Help on My New Project

My granny and Uncle Rusty are great Yard Sale shoppers! They go out every Friday and Saturday. I just give them what I'm looking for and they get to do the work! I've been wanting a corner hutch for my kitchen. They called me at 7:30 Saturday morning (woke me up, but it's worth it) and found this! I'm in love with it and can't wait to get started on it. (Forgive the picture...this is the one they sent me to see if I wanted it, no clue who the guy is LOL)

So...I've never refinished anything before, so I'm needing your help! I want to paint it like a satin black! Do I use oil based, latex, or regular paint? What type of sand paper? This is like a flat paint already on here.....so I need help! Any suggestions????

I can't wait to get started! Thanks guys!

They're Here!

Not the best picture in the world, but Monika and Michael made it home from Korea! After a very long flight for them and delays they made it in about 9:15 last night! We made signs for them. So weird....hardly recognized her, she's so tiny and beautiful as always! It was great having them home and knowing they are in the US. :) It's going to be a great 3 weeks visit with them before they head to Kentucky!
