Yes we always talk a LOT but over the last few weeks our conversations have been specifically about teaming up and we've finally decided to blog together- so beginning today we will cease to be Insane and Chaotic and instead just be Blissful. We do most of our creating together and Mum always wants to take credit for sewing, I of course have all the best ideas so we just thought it would be easier to stop fighting over who gets to take credit!<br />
We really hope you will follow us over to our new blog - we've even decided to bribe you, so click on over to see what's up.<br />

I found it off of Amazon for somewhere around $11 (I actually bought the chalkboard contact paper because it had better reviews). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3pKg7T6WUPVOJJ91IkISSsJbJChvypRJmF-Vm6REUhy3ET0GPdBl9yLqX2Jh6Tng-t8G4G-pAfmtwOhYxhedyOR4T0jN-Vo_kJuAjW8LvA47AjGdi0SxNxEWgzEnFwNnhC6RwEr6PsR-d/s1600/2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3pKg7T6WUPVOJJ91IkISSsJbJChvypRJmF-Vm6REUhy3ET0GPdBl9yLqX2Jh6Tng-t8G4G-pAfmtwOhYxhedyOR4T0jN-Vo_kJuAjW8LvA47AjGdi0SxNxEWgzEnFwNnhC6RwEr6PsR-d/s640/2.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then I played around in Publisher until I found a font I liked and a good text size. After that it went fast I just laid out my printed numbers on top of the contact paper and cut through both layers with an exacto knife. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqCA3EPA1Rhk0Qn2pwm_NZvM8x-7Wo1csEO-WYO4Fz8PPRsC8CPBzdQQEFIQokUlWTXi2tH-tYM_NPQMMcZRD7pZjIPjIIZw1Y9jRxtf_LzE0Zc5KeFgkUtuUZnwqTeFc2wksWHqbQnsSm/s1600/stairs+done.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqCA3EPA1Rhk0Qn2pwm_NZvM8x-7Wo1csEO-WYO4Fz8PPRsC8CPBzdQQEFIQokUlWTXi2tH-tYM_NPQMMcZRD7pZjIPjIIZw1Y9jRxtf_LzE0Zc5KeFgkUtuUZnwqTeFc2wksWHqbQnsSm/s640/stairs+done.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">With just a little bit of measuring they all went up super fast. They have been up a few weeks and they continue to look good and are staying stuck. I would suggest cleaning your stairs very well so there is no dirt to get in the way of your sticker sticking. I took this opportunity to finally fully paint my stairs since I was so sick of painting when we originally refinished them that I had never bothered to finish .... and then forgot all about it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I barely used any of the contact paper so I see more projects in the future. Martha Stewart has all of the neat holiday silhouette stickers at Michael's so I might have to try my hand at something like that. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8cc_AANOJwD3qv1vIEKM0vUoJNKdRSFijtDkTCbxKp96e4Qvrzj0q6W3GaKcv7fLcPBJMOFr49LjRpTp0qdv_9ieXwjgpMQSdV9IiVNPyjziQohLJWv4QoUkmXrUHok9khVav20_OdfhT/s1600/jessica.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="78" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8cc_AANOJwD3qv1vIEKM0vUoJNKdRSFijtDkTCbxKp96e4Qvrzj0q6W3GaKcv7fLcPBJMOFr49LjRpTp0qdv_9ieXwjgpMQSdV9IiVNPyjziQohLJWv4QoUkmXrUHok9khVav20_OdfhT/s200/jessica.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

This ottoman is really large 33"x21" just a huge box - no storage. I recovered it right after we moved into the house it started out a dark emerald green velour and was a hand me down from my grandparents (thanks!).

It really hurt to sell them (especially at the ridiculously low price I ended up getting) but we <b><i>really </i></b>needed the floor space the old chairs were 35"x35" and the only time they are sat on is when company comes over = not that often (which is funny because we have been having loads of company over recently). I actually had found replacements I wanted on craigslist but I (to make a long story short) made myself wait until I had the others sold before I could buy anything else... and of course the other chairs after being up for weeks sold the day I called : ( </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So plan B I had seen these puppies at Costco but they wanted $180 for them... which is a lot considering I was going to rip them apart and I wanted the entire bill for the new chairs to be covered by the ones I sold. So after getting the no go on the others Uber and I decided we would just go check out these at Costco again and as luck would have it they had clearanced them down to $130 - SO MUCH BETTER!- and these new ones are 25"x24" big difference! Micah now has a lot more floor space to spread his gooey fingers on. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So as I mentioned earlier I got them home and unboxed and immediately started them ripping (literally) apart. Because this fabric is just not my thing and I am really trying to get more color and pattern into our house. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It was a lot to pack in but I am glad we did it and really want to go back to this area again... I wish I realized how close all of this was to me when I lived there... hmmm... </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguWsfGFpG6QfO70aO5kHGdVIbFW9xRLkztPuyuE-3-sgElQ24oMqbytdNUHYeHb2zP1ilXuwQqX-IV7duOx9QgJlFXLEFN017JwA6tMKAee7q1Agox1IHatjduup-ag2JGnt5D0QGhKwfG/s1600/1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguWsfGFpG6QfO70aO5kHGdVIbFW9xRLkztPuyuE-3-sgElQ24oMqbytdNUHYeHb2zP1ilXuwQqX-IV7duOx9QgJlFXLEFN017JwA6tMKAee7q1Agox1IHatjduup-ag2JGnt5D0QGhKwfG/s640/1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> First we stopped at the<a href="http://www.oakvillegrocery.com/stores/napa_valley.php"> Oakville Grocery </a>for brunch- this place is a must it's right on the St Helena Highway, the food is fast and ridiculously delicious. They have picnic tables in the back next to a vineyard or you can have picnic baskets packed and take them with you.... to where ever... Plus they have a coffee bar which was very very necessary to keep our energy up!!<br />

And I would totally recommend. It's owned by the Taittinger's (a French wine family famous for their champagne)<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"> </span>and is a certified organic winery specializing in sparkling wine and Pinot Noir.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGu-WEU9v6qZRHzWbpimTbZWRMUt2s8rCHnA6T98JW7fGjur0xmrK_UFgwKtDqu6XsGODbzNNEppswjGaYs6r22Us6QolmHW-rO9KEkvI8yYWgC0nWXSSYWwj_3w3FLCet_Z_obRCa7-QP/s1600/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGu-WEU9v6qZRHzWbpimTbZWRMUt2s8rCHnA6T98JW7fGjur0xmrK_UFgwKtDqu6XsGODbzNNEppswjGaYs6r22Us6QolmHW-rO9KEkvI8yYWgC0nWXSSYWwj_3w3FLCet_Z_obRCa7-QP/s640/3.jpg" width="622" /></a></div> It was really neat to learn about the process of making sparkling wine. Next trip I will need recommendations for a traditional winery. The only bummer is I didn't get to bring home a wine barrel... yes I was really planning on it...<br />

We went to two beaches the first was Glass Beach - it used to be a dump but it has been cleaned out and now there is massive quantities of super small glass pebbles. I spent at little time searching out blues and even found a red one- I could spend hours doing this, I try to get glass at every beach I go to ... it's Ubers favorite thing! If you ever get the chance this beach though small was a lot of fun.<br />

Well I guess this is the only Mendocino picture we really took. It looks gorgeous (and it was) but there was dense fog so if you looked out to the headlands and ocean you could see nothing but directly across the street from the bluff was beautiful... I guess we will just have to go back again because the area is beautiful and I would love to see it on a clear day!<br />

For the most part he just conked out but on our last flight back he was awake almost the whole time and just played quietly... I was SO nervous he would decide to be a screamer!<br />
His favorite part about the plane ride was the air. If we turned it on he would stand up and shove his face in the air stream and squeal and laugh (we didn't want him being loud though so we had to turn it off) but it got the same reaction every time-weirdo!<br />

He had his 90th birthday while we were there. Which was so fun- he is a regular at Hometown buffet so he reserved half of the restaurant and had a ventriloquist and magician preform. I hope everyone has someone like him in their life!<br />
