Create Pretty

I keep a basket... filled with projects I need to finish. Some things are simple sewing/fixing a stuffed animal... some require much more attention. So here's my goal for this month- get to the bottom of this basket.

Some projects included are:
-Organize and put together our family cookbook.
-Fix Mr. Sock Monkey
-Make another hooded towel
-Organize car documents
-Embroidering project (4 shirts!)

There goes July! I am also working through this list of my summer goals (and I cringe thinking that once this month is over I only have 8-EIGHT days left of summer...) and my majorly failed June list. Fortunately in the next month we will be doing alot of traveling and milking this summer for all it's worth. I anticipate waking up early and going to bed late to make the most out of it!

I hate thinking about this month ending. Overall it was really great (and really unexpected!- more on that in July). I wrapped up work for the summer, we took a trip to Pennsylvania, I get to spend all day every day with my 2 loves, and Josh turned 29!!

Here were my goals for the month.
1. Organize our dry goods-done: just not posted yet. I planned to do "kitchen week" and have a bunch of updates in our kitchen that I can't wait to share and I just didn't get it all together in June!
2. Make ringtones- fail: I pinned a site on pinterest that guides you step by step. BUT when I actually went to the site and there were 17 steps I decided I really need to be in the mood!
3. Liquid hand soap- done
4. Update 365 blog- 1/4 done: I've started by working backwards. It's overwhelming and I can only work for about 20 min at a time before my eyes totally cross.
5. Work in Luke's room- fail
6. blogroll and categories- done: Underneath each post there are categories. Hopefully this will make navigating the site a bit easier. Also there is a blog roll on the right side all the way past the archives and popular posts. I wanted all the blogs I love reading in one place, and you can see some of the people that are totally inspiring to me!

I pretty much failed this month. boo. What always seems to happen is I get consumed with other things (because I did alot of things that weren't on the list). Oh well.

A quick recap:
