DIY Finished!

So if you can remember way back, we found this little number (FREE) down the street earlier this summer.

 We carried it down the street and it found a new home in our backyard.  For about a month it was lonely with no chairs.  Then the Husband's parents decided to get rid of their chairs on their deck, so of course we took them off their hands (again FREE)!  They were a little sad and didn't match the table, so 3 spray cans later ($9) and wa-la!


They are a happy family of 3 - but quite uncomfortable.  So then I was on a mission to find some cheap & cute cushions = HARD NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE!  I finally found some last night that I can live with.  Not exactly what I had envisioned, but do-able.  We found them at Penny's at 2 for $50.  I still thought this was too expensive,so I decided I would look for a coupon before buying them.  At 8:30pm I found a $10 off coupon that expired yesterday, so we printed and raced there with about 5 min to spare.  Then the lady told us to go find two more items and she would take off $20 bucks!  So Baby Liam you have a new pair of shorts and a t-shirt headed your way!  After everything, we have a patio set and an outfit for Liam for a grand total of $45!


In other DIY news, our garden is doing much better - we had some nasty bugs that were eating all our veggies. Here is a bowl full of tomatoes that are all rotten :(

Today we are going to attempt to make salsa with all the grape tomatoes we have!
