Bills Girls - Spring Edition

My friend Crystal let me practice some more with my camera by taking pictures of her girls. What a great friend huh! She has some bunnies and a bunch of colored eggs we were going to add in but that never happened. As if these girls need any props to make it cuter.

Tin Foil Headboard / Sofa Table

I wanted a table underneath my Calendar to hold markers and to help it out a little visually. I looked around for something but it was either too expensive and/or hideous. So, off to the DI we go. My SIL Jen made did this technique to a bookshelf and it turned out A-Maze-Ing so I was looking for something to do. We got the idea from here and I have so many more ideas from that gold mine. $18 dollars later and this is what I ended up with.

Dallin was no too excited but I could see it had some potential.

Before, During & After

Italian Crockpot Chicken

It was the Relief Society birthday party earlier this month and this is what they served. I missed it but I guess so many people asked for the recipe, they made a bunch of copies and passed them out at church. It's super easy and anything that can go straight from the freezer/can into the oven/crockpot is my kind of meal.

Prep Time: 5 min.

Cook Time: 4-8 hours

4 chicken breasts

1 - 8oz. package of cream cheese (softened)

2 cans cream of chicken soup

1 dry package of Italian Salad dressing

-Put Chicken in crockpot.

-Cream together other 3 ingredients and pour over chicken.

-Cook on high 4 hours or low for 6-8.

-The last 1/2 hour shred chicken or cut up into bite size pieces.

-Serve over rice, penne or mashed potatoes.

New Camera!

I finally got my Dream Camera! A Nikon D90!

There was a good deal at Costco for a Kit with 2 lenses, a bag and a memory card. This has been on my Vision Board forever and it's the first thing I have accomplished from it. I have lots to learn but I'm having fun doing it.

Here are some fave's from my first "Photo Shoots" (and I use that term loosely). I'm at the point where I just take a whole bunch of pictures (500) and hope for the best. Like I said, I have lots to learn. Photoshop is my best friend right now.

Pillows!

I got new couches and they are really dark so in order to lighten the room up, I decided I would just get new pillows. Here is the before with the old couches.

I love the gray pillows and the sofa table with the old couches (shown above), but with the new ones, it just was too dark and didn't go. We got the new couches for a good deal and these old ones are small and were getting kinda uncomfortable.

I saw these pillows from Target on a blog and fell in love but not with the price.

I looked around at the Wal-Mart, Tai Pan and TJ Maxx but a) they didn't have the right yellow or b) was over $20. Sooo, I was over at my cousin Chantelle's and she had just made these pillows for her bed and couch. I was like - Hey, those are so cute! Why don't you help me make some. We went to Joanns Fabric and bought everything we needed for oh about $12 bucks total. For 3 pillows!

Ta-Da!

To lighten it up even more, I got my piano from my parents house :) Bonus! I have even practiced 4-5 times since I got it. I def need some lessons though. Ha.

You do it to yourselves.....

I should send this in to Jay Leno or something. Hahaha.

You combine 4+ vehicles to make 1. Haha.

Yes - this is street legal!

If you think about it, it's pretty clever. It get's about 3X better fuel mileage as a regular semi, it saves you from getting a motel, you don't need a CDL License & you can make $$ hauling stuff.
