Let's get this PARTY started!!

I thought for my first real post why not do something super springy?? These pots are from last year. I took some plastic terra cotta pots I recieved as a wedding gift five years ago, and made them a little more my style. So I jump on the SPRAY PAINT wagon.
This is a very simple project that can be done in an hour or less depending on the temperature. Today is super rainy which I am kindof loving, but has kept me from painting my new pots so that will have to wait. I can't wait to show you them!!
Because its raining and I'll use anything as a reason to make soup I am making a frozen Brocolli cheese soup from (soup supreme) DELISH!!!and focaccia bread I will give you the details later. Have a great night!!!

Hi there! I'm Amber you've landed yourself at my BLOG. I don't know about you.... but I have great intentions of doing many things but between the laundry; raising two young kids; a basset hound pup (what were we thinking??); and everything else that goes along with motherhood/life. I have little time or atleast I make little time to do things I love. But... thats the old me!! The reason for this BLOG is to motivate me to get up, create, cook, organize, answer my phone:), or whatever makes myself HAPPY!! I have started far to many project with no end result, and have had starving loved ones left with mac and cheese for dinner.(which is not a problem, but I know I can do better!) I know I am not alone so hopefully we can motivate eachother to make our lives HAPPIER than ever.

I can't wait to share ideas that make me HAPPY! I would love to hear what makes you HAPPY. On that note I am not a writer or photographer. I do my best so bear with me!! Lets get this party stated!! PS. remember.... "when mamas HAPPY, everybodys HAPPY!!"(usually:))
