project 365 - day 296

Today was the first actual cold day of school the kids have had. They actually look pretty cute in their "cold weather" uniforms. Thankfully it'll warm up again for the rest of the week, because I am not quite sure I'm ready for them to have to be bundled every single day.

Alright, we officially own everything now. This is a "Beertender", aka a little mini keg holder/tap. Seriously. We were at my mom's, and went into Bed Bath and Beyond and saw this. Thought it was kinda cool, so grammy bought it for us. It's holds 5 liter kegs of Heineken Light. I suppose if we have a bar and a wine fridge, we might as well have a keg, too. Rock on. Party at my place.

Our last away game of the season!! Woohoo! I am so going to miss the season, but I am not going to miss the long, long drives.

I moved some stuff around, again, in the dining room. I am kinda digging the R and the ginormous candle on top of the tall wine shelf.

Owen, Perry, and pretty much all the kids and coaches from their football team are going to the Bulls/Cincinnati game. They rescheduled practice and everything. I am sure it'll be fun. Nicole and I didn't go, because we had parent/teacher night at school. And because I don't particularly care about either team, so I don't feel much need to sit at the game (sorry Bulls fans!)

As I think I predicted in my post with the flowers on the porch, I killed the first batch quite quickly. So I've bought some more flowers (thank God flowers are cheap at Home Depot) and I'm giving it another shot. Maybe I should start taking bets as to how long till I kill these ones. FWIW, I actually like these ones better.

One of my latest creations. I saw this pendant at Michael's and I decided I had to build something around it. I am really happy with how it turned out. Not that I even wear a ton of blue, but maybe I will have to start! I made a couple stretchy bracelets to go with it, too. Now I just have to make some earrings and I'll be all set.
