I talked about money being tight and really needing to focus on priorities to get our finances in a place that makes us happy and comfortable. If you missed that post, you can catch it here. I'm sure a lot of you are in the same position. As luck would have it, I'm a craft supply hoarder. I definitely have my share of paints, adhesives, strings and the basic crafting items. I've been itching to decorate for fall. The easiest way to do that would be to drop a couple hundred bucks at various ...

My Daughter’s Bedroom
If you recall from this post, when we found out we were pregnant with baby number four, we started a room shuffle. Everyone switched rooms and not one room is finished. The baby's room is a pile of stuff, our room is awaiting some sort of clothing storage miracle, the boys have their mattresses on the floor and just this one gallery wall done, and Eleanor's clothes are sitting in plastic tubs while we wait for a dresser.
