A couple weeks ago i ventured into D.I. to try and find something to make into a project. I was about to leave empty handed when i saw this wedged in between 2 doors...



I have seen several chalkboards around that I had been wanting to buy, but they were always so expensive! And i really wanted one for our kitchen. So i decided to turn this beauty into a chalkboard. And it was only $2. I sanded it down, painted it and bought some chalkboard spray paint for the backing. And this is the end result:


I have loved using it and it was so easy to make.

So I never in a million years thought that I would actually have a blog. Honestly I have no idea what to write about but I thought it would be a good way for my family to see what I have been up to lately.

Braden and I get to fly to Oregon the day before Christmas Eve to spend the Holiday with my family. I could not be more excited!!!! Amazing food that I don't have to make myself, the smell of a live Christmas tree, shopping and going to the beach! I seriously cannot wait. I love the feeling of Christmas and everything that comes with it. 3 more days!! Ok, I'll stop now.



I think this picture explains a lot about our relationship. Haha.
