Craftiness

I am sorry that I have not updated you guys on our exciting life here in Pocatello for a while.
 The truth is that not much is happening here. I work strange hours at the hospital, and Joe 
works 8-5 with the Judge. I have extra time on my hands to actually do things that I pin
 on pinterest!  My latest has been throw pillows. My mother would be so proud 
that I dusted off my sewing machine and I am actually using it. I have also taken on a
 quilt project, that could easily become the death of me.

We had this old desk that was painted green. I thought about dropping it off at the DI, 
but instead decided to take on a project and spend hour and hours and days
 and days getting the old paint off and staining it. 
Here is the finished project! Not perfect, and please don't look too close.
 I really like the way it turned out.
