Friday already........

Good morning everyone.  This week flew by for us, I can hardly believe it's already Friday 
I changed out the snowballs and snowflakes on the winter tree to hearts for Valentines.  
Nothing is new. My mom made the crocheted hearts and I stitched the felt and sequins hearts years ago. 
I like the twinkling lights, especially in the early morning and evening.  
My grands haven't seen the Valentine tree yet but I know they will like it.  


I don't think this photo shows how big this new table is.  We put in both leaves and it's 115 inches long, 48 inches wide and fits just right in our diagonal shaped dining room after we moved out the hutch. 
I plan to sew some placemats but we bought these at Dollar Tree to protect the top for now.  



CVS (of course)
3 boxes of Liptons tea $3 a box, used $1 coupon on each and got back $3 ECB 
Pizzas $5.50 each, used 2 coupons Buy 2 get 1 free, and got back $10 ECB
Candy 99 cents, got back .75 ECB
Toothpaste was free after .50 coupon and $2.50 red machine coupon
Deodorants - used B1g1f coupons and got back $2.50 coupon 

Have a good weekend everyone!

Another jumbled up post

Hello everyone 
I did a little planning this evening and wrote out a new to do list for the coming week.
I also clipped today's coupons and got a CVS list and matching coupons ready for when I can make a trip there.  

Below is the winter mantle my daughter decorated in their home- she was inspired by an expensive grouping she saw somewhere online. She put everything together with things she already had except she bought the battery-powered candles and she made the sign using her Cameo cutting device.  
I think it's all really pretty together. 



I saw this dining set on a Facebook buy and sell group. My husband and stepson went to check it out and they knew it was a great deal so they bought it and brought it home.  
It is very sturdy heavy all-real-wood.  The table is 48 inches wide and 75 inches long and can be extended with 2 leaves that are 18 inches.
It looks so pretty in our dining room and I am so thankful to now own a beautiful dining set at a very low price.  (Below is the seller's photo) 


Grand daughters with lots of hair. 
This is Andie and she is almost 4 but she has more hair than many adults. 
Sister Charlie is 6 months and she has the longest, thickest baby hair I've ever seen. 
It's a blessing for them that their momma is a hair stylist and she will keep their hair looking pretty.

The granddaughters spent a good deal of the weekend with us. Andie just loves to "cut and glue" so that's what she did.  My dad enjoyed his sweet great granddaughters too.

I hope you all had a good weekend and get a good nights sleep tonight, ready to face the new week.
