Cleaning, re-arranging...

Hello! I woke up this morning feeling yucky with a sore throat but mustered

up a bunch of energy to get some cleaning done!!

I swept & mopped the kitchen, cleaning the cat box (hate that job!!) and created a little something new for the kitchen table...

The pink tinsel wreath was an after Target find for $.50!!

And the bulbs were $1.25 there too!

I added them into my trifle bowl; love the colors!

I was gonna use that wreath for Valentine's Day too, for the front door.

Was thinking of a way to add some cute hearts to it?

I really would like to have a tablecloth on my kitchen table but with all the play-doh, glue and moon sand that gets on it, I just don't think it will work for us at this time!

I took down the Christmas tree and moved my record player back;

and kept the side table that my bro made me in wood shop when he was in high school.

Added a wedding pic and that cute tea cup planter I found awhile back at Michaels.

Added some more ball ornaments too!

I decided to keep some snowman decor up for now cause we sure have lots of snow outside; probably about 15 inches this weekend!

Gage in front of the record player. ♥

I kept a strand of red lights on there for a warm glow.

Then Gage and I got busy with some cleaning up of the toys...

and some easy ways for him to organize his toys in the living room.

I pulled this bookshelf in from the garage, where its been since summer.

Its OLD; got it from Brian's grandma's house.

I thought about repainting it and putting it in our room, but like the extra storage for toys.

I am going to look for some fabric or panels to adhere to the front of the shelf to

"hide" the toys away!!

I put together the NOEL banner from the Making Memories kit I got yesterday...

see below.

What a day!!

I am still working on getting together My Fave Winter Things Giveaway...

I plan to post it later this week!!
