Man it's been a while!!! Here are SOME of the things that have been going on at the Cherry House!

We have been so busy around the Cherry household!  I'll go back and post pics of Mac's party it was a surprise Slumber party with a baking theme. Super fun! Here are the girls sledding in Lake City.  We went there for Christmas and had an amazing time.
Mac has been studying the Alamo so we went there this past weekend.  It was a super quick visit b/c Mille had a game that day so we drove straight from the game to the Alamo!  Then the next day we drove to Austin.  We went to see Wicked, AMAZING!!!! 
Mac dressed up as Susanna Dickenson for a project for school, Almaron was her FIRST husband (she had a total of 5!)
Here is what the girls gave their teachers.  We bought valentine candy boxes and the girls, Craig, and I ate some then threw the rest away. :o) Then I covered the boxes and put gift cards in there.
This one is a Sonic gift card and it reads "You're an awesome teacher b/c you're "Sweet!"
Chick-fil-A that says You're an awesome teacher b/c you're "an awesome Chick" we couldn't come up with anything other than that. :o)
iTunes that says, you're a good teacher b/c you "listen!"
Then we covered the gift cards with yummy candy.
Put a sweet note on it and then...
tied it with a bow!
I don't know what Mille bug is doing in this pose but that's the Mille bug!  
Cupcakes for Mac's class, they're cuter than this pic shows.  I also did a salty snack of popcorn, pretzels, and goldfish.
Water bottles with a sweet message from Mac.
I attached a Crystal Light packet and put a joke on it. 
I made a banner for our mantel, Happy Valentine's Day!
This is a precious pig I got in Salado with Leslie.  We had an awesome day playing and shopping!  I painted the frame on the chalkboard grey to match my kitchen better.
This is a frame I painted and distressed.  I bought the frame at H.L. it was white to begin with and then I painted it Gray Matters then I rubbed it with Walnut stain.  It started out as a cork board but I just popped it off and turned it around and painted it with chalkboard paint (I recommend the paint in a can versus spray paint. I did that first and it didn't work well!)

There are some things that I have done and worked on.  I know there is more but I'll post those later!  Working on Mille bug's b-day party, Art Party! Also working on St. Patty Day stuff too. Fun!!!
