T*G*I*F

Happy Friday!!! I am so very happy that it is Friday! This is our weekend to spend with my son & we have a few fun things planned . Tonight we are taking him & my niece Kaylee to Chuck E Cheese ...then tomorrow we have a pizza/birthday party for a cousin...it's going to be great! My niece is coming over to play this morning while my sis goes to the doctor...I haven't seen her all week & I'm starting to go into with drawl! Her mother says she is too! LOL She used to come to our house everyday but then my sis had to be taken off work for back surgery so we don't see her nearly as much & we miss her.

Last night my husband's friend from work came over to help him with his brakes & he brought his two adorable boys with him.  It was a blast! While the guys worked in the garage ... the boys were busy "attacking" each other with swords & guns! They had sooo much fun! It's nice when we have a few kids in the house so Cody has someone to play with besides us! lol

After my boys went to bed I decided to work on my grungy cans/cup from the other day.  Here's what I came up with :

this is the cup before - the other one was just a plain soup can





after - still not quite right -flowers a lil too bright for me so I used some brown shoe polish & aged them up a little


I like them much better after the shoe polish


Here's the soup can one on in my living room - the cup is going to my sis if she wants it -she had bought the cup so I could grungy it up for her. Hopefully she likes it.

I hope everyone has a great weekend! Don't forget to "spring" forward your clocks tomorrow night! :D
