Easter Tree

I’ve always loved arts & crafts; I think this can probably be attributed to my mom’s very crafty influence. I wish I was half as crafty and inventive as she is, maybe one day. Walking through stores I started seeing very cute Easter trees where you hang the Easter eggs from and fill them up with candy. They make a cute decorating piece.  I had seen a few, but never  seemed to like them fully, so I decided to make my own with all the different elements that I liked combined into one.

I didn’t want to spend much on this, so I decided to check out the dollar store first to see what supplies I could find there. Much to my surprise, I was able to find everything I needed there, for under $10.

Here is a picture of the materials before and the after Easter Tree.

It was really fun to do; doing crafts is a great way to unwind from a stressful day. 

Museums on us

Not many people are aware of the wonderful program Bank of America has for any card holder, whether it be credit or debit. The first weekend (Saturday & Sunday) of every month, you can go to museums, galleries, etc… for free. Here is the link the official website    http://museums.bankofamerica.com/ Click on the link, choose your state and city, and eligible museums are listed.  The first weekend of March Oscar and I went to The Museum of Discovery and Science in FT. Lauderdale.

I'm a bit of a nerd so I always enjoys visiting museums, although Oscar was a little skeptical about going I think he had the most fun out of the two. They had a great aviation exhibit which Oscar enjoyed very much. I just truly love when we can go on a date thats different, no movies or dinner (although I enjoy both). So, if you have Bank of America definitely worth a try, its free after all!

New Endeavour

I’ve always loved music, but to my misfortune I have never been very talented in the music department. I tried playing the guitar while I was in high school, Complete Failure.  After years of wishing I was one of those people who can just listen to a song and then play it right away without ever rehearsing it, I decided to stop dreaming.  No, I’m not giving up. On the contrary I’ve bought a keyboard, and will now attempt to learn to play it. How successful will I be? I can't answer that yet. Luckily the UPS guy showed up with a great surprised today…. My new Casio keyboard! =) I will try to keep the blog updated with my progress, maybe one day I'll even post a video. As for now, I’ll stop writing so I can get to learning!

Wish me luck...

Hello Blog World!

Welcome!

I was recently in quite a dilemma, so i decided to see what other people thought about my issue. I read endless blogs, but still I hadn't made a decision. A  few days later I asked a friend, and although I still came to no conclusion something even better emerged from the conversation. Blogging came up as a topic, she gave me a little motivation to start one, and here we are now. Thanks! I'm excited about being able to share everyday things about my life and family, but I'm more excited to be able to create a journal/ virtual-scrapbook for my future kids. I hope to get the hand of blogging quickly, until the next post Good Night!
