My New Border...

I just have to say that I am so happy! My sister-in-law Suzanne called me up this morning to see what I was doing & I told her about my organization mission,etc. She proceeds to ask me if I wanted her to come to my house, pick up Becky & Matthew and take them to her house for a few hours and then deliver them back to me later in the afternoon...She asked me if I needed to think about it & did I want to call her back. I said "YES! & please hang up now before you have time to think about what you are offering & change your mind!" She laughed at me - I was serious! :)

Well, in my time with only one little baby in the house (who like a good little boy took a very long morning nap before the basement guy came) ~ I got to fnally put up my border in the foyer (which I have been wanting to do for over a year)! I had re-painted the area and put up all of the shelves & B&W pictures before I got pregnant with Jake and my mother sewed the curtain for me out of the Waverly fabric that matches the border! It feels so good to actually accomplish a task - Now this is one project that can be checked off my list!

Take a look at my handywork...

Here's a close-up of the border...
