We had to re-carpet the house after that incident. Yikes!
I thoroughly enjoyed your video, new subscriber! I am a Lady Bug 100%, I learned some tips from your style. Sorry, unsolicited advice. My son got cavities from fruit snacks. They stick in their teeth. My dentist had it on her list of "No's". Thank you for taking the time to record, you definitely put a lot of work into it 💜
Thank you for subscribing, Megan. I don't know how you Ladybug's do it. I tried mostly baskets on one shelf of my pantry several years back, and nearly everything in them expired, because I forgot about them. Haha! Sometimes I regret the day I introduced the kids to fruit snacks. They are incredibly difficult to clean off teeth, for sure! We are rotating our snacks now, and phasing some of the troublesome ones out. I appreciate your gracious feedback.
I love to hear your laugh! It evoked a smile from me. Thank you for sharing this video with us. I definitely would be interested in seeing more crafting vids as I have a new Cricket and gave yet to use it.
I literally laugh as often as possible -- and let out a snort every now and then. Life is too short, so get your laughs out! I will absolutely have more crafts featured in upcoming videos and will be sure to share if/when I create a dedicated channel to crafting. My Silhouette Cameo 2 sat in the box for almost a year, before I opened it. I almost gave up after attempting my first project. I'm so glad I persevered. Now I have an unhealthy addiction to crafting everything! haha!
@@thenovicemom1093 Yes! My sister gifted it to me last January and my girls got tired of seeing it in the box, so they unpacked it and put it on a desk. It's unpacked now, but still wrapped. I do that with ALL electronics. My KitchenAid sat in the box for about a year as well.
Hi Rachel wow this is brilliant you are so gifted your family are so cute glad both had a brilliant birthday great video looking forward to the next 👌💡🎂
I am so humbled by your kind words, Nora. I love a good birthday party or baby shower, to decorate for. I wish I had that same inspiration to decorate my house. My house has almost no wall decor because I have too many ideas. Ugh!! I will start posting more regularly pretty soon. These last couple of weeks I've dealt with a car door latch that failed (been in the shop for an entire week), and a hot water heater that quit. It's always some drama around here!
I have found that Americans have so much more snack food compared to British people and as for Apple sauce in England it's a side dish if we have cooked a pork roast dinner. Great video. 🌹
Wow!! I cook my pork in apple juice, sometimes orange juice, until tender. I've never heard of applesauce as a side dish! The boys will LOVE that. Also, we do tend to keep a lot of snacks on hand; but now the pre-packaged ones are reserved for school lunches and road trips. Thank you for the amazing feedback.
We cook our pork in the oven we roast it, it's not a loin it's a lot bigger we have it with 🍎 Apple sauce, roast potatoes mashed potatoes, and usually 3 veg, carrots, cabbage and cauliflower and gravy but not the kind you have we have a brown meat flavour gravy it's all very 😋 yummy usually eaten on a Sunday, your two boys are very cute I have a black haired brown eyed boy but he is 32 and lives in his own house. 😸 still my boy though enjoy them whilst they are young time fly much too quickly. 💗🌷🌷
Good to see you again! The party stuff is so stinkin cute 👏🏼
Thank you for always being here, Sonya! You're a gem! 😄
