Are You Ready For Some Football!?

We are!  Today was Mike's Fantasy Football Draft with his friends in Michigan - I really wish he could be there to enjoy the "man-ness" with his friends.  He had to be Skyped in ... but I did everything I could to make him feel like he was part of the party. Following his "party", we watched the Lions win.  Yes.. I just said WE WATCHED THE LIONS WIN!  Everybody else in the world is so concerned about Hurricane Irene that they probably won't even notice!  [side note - thoughts and prayers really DO go out to those affected by the hurricane .. including our family in Virginia]. 

Madelyn will be 5months old on Monday and she is showing more and more signs of crawling - craaaazy!!  Tonight she took a 20min nap on my tummy and it really made me miss her newborn days -  

DIY Fabric Wall-Covering

One of the hardest parts about living in a rental home is the fact that we can't paint the walls.  The starch-white walls that landlords leave their tenants with is enough to drive a sane person crazy.  I caught an episode of the Nate Berkus show and he saved us!  He shows an easy way to put fabric on the walls!  SImply apply liquid starch to a blah wall and lay on a top of it a bright fabric!  Voila!  You have color!!
