I'm back!

Shortly after Noah was born last year I decided to open up a cloth diaper shop call Two of a Kind Creations on Etsy. I did well, and had loyal customers, but I no longer have room to run my business and have closed down. Which means, I can start THIS blog back up! I am pretty excited about being able to write about our lives again and talk about this new adventure we are smack dab in the middle of! On May 5th we flew to Anchorage Alaska. Not to visit but to move! So far we are absolutely loving it. Our place is much smaller than out duplex in Washington, and we have no garage or yard. Which I must admit can be a bit frustrating! But we are so happy and I know we won't be here forever. It is only temporary, until we can figure out where we want to live and buy a house. In the mean time I am finding lots of ways to make our townhouse feel like home. I have cleaned and scrubbed our back porch(which looked like it had never been washed before) and have started lots of sewing projects for the house. In fact today I am ordering fabric to make curtains for our bedroom. It may sound odd.. but it is nightmare before christmas/tim burton themed, mixed with my favorite color dark turquoise. I'm not sure if others can picture it. The color mixture is black and white with yellow and dark turquoise. So far it is looking very nice. Our living room is Pirate themed, haha. Hubby and his pirates :) I finally started working on the old wood highchair I bought last summer. Hubby filled in some of the old screw holes on it with plastic wood and I've started sanding it. Guess what color I'm going to paint it? Turquoise of course!! I know I know... I'm going a little turquoise crazy here..but really, the color makes me HAPPY, so why not? :) So I was going to try to post pictures.... but it keeps giving me an error message.. bummer. :(
