We had a DIY Vacation

April 7, 2013 Lana

We had a #DIY Vacation

This past week has flown by – my hubby and I were by ourselves while the kids went to their John Deere Grandparents.  It wasn’t a normal vacation – it was a WORK #DIY vacation.  (Next time, my hubby better take me on a cruise or to the Big Bend National Park <-I love that place!)  However, our To-Do list for our home has been shortened.

Can I get a cheer, a cartwheel and a chocolate brownie?

I have so many new posts coming up.  (Hopefully, I will get them out of my head on and uploaded soon.)

So I’ve decided to jot some of them down here (that way I will be held accountable.) Lol!

  • Our backyard pergola – a weekend project.
  • The Yellow Dresser that went French.
  • Going Gaga with Grandparents.
  • My new favorite drink.
  • Our girls’ custom built bunk beds.

These will be done in no particular order.  Hopefully, I will start posting more and more.  But, you know how that goes…I have kids, laundry and need a shower once in awhile.

I’d love for you to follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or sign up for my emails (that way you’ll never miss a post).

Teach the Diligently Marketplace is coming to Houston and so are we!  I’m so excited!  There will be some great discounts on a lot of homeschool materials and some wonderful speakers.  Click the photo below for more details.

Right now for every family registration bought you get a $10.00 coupon to one of the vendors.

If you are interested in learning about Homeschooling or even if you teach public school – the resources are so valuable.  I love teaching kids and have a love for learning myself.  These conferences are like a booster shot for me and not only help me become a better teacher but a better parent.

Okay, so off to write some major #DIY posts!  By the way for those who might not know – DIY means Do It Yourself, thus my life.

Blessings to you!  You are loved!
