What a great weekend it was! My sister Karen is here visiting from Tennessee and we met up for breakfast yesterday. We were joined by my nephew and his darling kids.
This is Gabriel. He is just a riot. He sat there while we chatted and entertained himself with a straw and a toothpick!
This is Alivia. She's going to be in first grade this fall and she's really excited that she is going to have her own desk at school.
This is my nephew Jason. He's a police officer. I really enjoyed watching him with his kids. He's a great Dad.
Last but not least.....yours truly and my sister Karen. It was so good to see her. We don't see each other often enough and it was great to just sit and chat for a couple of hours.
Besides the nice breakfast, I finished painting our bedroom! It's a small room, but still a lot of work. On Sunday I ran errands and then started to put the room back together again. We decided to switch out dressers and move a book shelf and paint a dresser. I also opted to take sandpaper to a vanity and chair rather than paint it again. The distressed look turned out great.
As soon as I have the room finished, I'll take some pictures to show you. I love the new look. I also started cleaning out my workshop. Right after the showers I will be back to creating things for my etsy shop, FourDogDay. I have some wonderful patterns for aprons and tote bags, and I also want to try my hand at some other ideas....so it should be a busy fall!
Off topic.....I made an appointment to get my hair cut really short on the 18th and I can't wait. This is too much hair for me. Also, I see the doctor Tuesday to see what my treatment options are for my not so happy uterus. I'll let you know what she says.
I hope your weekend was a good one. Have a wonderful day tomorrow and do something nice for yourself and for someone else too!

So glad you were able to visit with your sister and her family. Sounds like you have a busy time ahead of you. Can't wait to see photos of your room transformation and your hair cut.
Gorgeous children , I love little boysbut didn,t care much for my 2 brothers as small kids and my sisters were a pain. I was the eldest of six so always had to care for them .
Hope your happy with the hair cut--cottonreel
It's so nice to get together with family, especially when you don't get to see them often. Karen has a great looking family.
And Jason is my kind of guy.
