For the Star Wars Fans

My son wanted to be Boba Fett for Halloween.  The costume we found was perfect except for missing the "famous" jet pack!  What else is a mother to do than figure out a way to fashion up a jet pack for her son.  This was the result of my efforts...some boxes, some cans, plastic cups, two pet type toy balls, paper mache, paint, orange crepe paper streamers, and a couple of tea light candles.  In the dark the "fire" actually glowed due to the candles!  Gavin was over excited and every other little boy at the carnival wanted to know where he got his jet pack. -JJ

'Pinterest'ing

A week ago, we had no clue what "Pinterest" was.....I had stumbled across the term several times while blog-hopping and finally had to research it. What I came across was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! It's the website I have always dreamed of....I say that its all the blogs I love rolled into one. If you have not clue what I'm talking about, you need to go check it out at http://www.pinterest.com/.


Us Mayhaw Moms have been super lazy when it comes to this blog...and we are about to get the ball rolling. I have my daughter's 2nd birthday coming up, and several ideas we want to try that we have gotten inspiration from Pinterest. So thanks for all you 'pinterest'ing people out there that enjoy crafting as much as we do!
