My kids have had a chore chart for a while. It's one of those magnetic boards and they share it. However, it's not by their rooms and often they (and I) forget to update it. Plus it's a little bulky. When I saw the concept of a door hanger chore chart on Pinterest, I loved it! It was compact, right there were the kiddos could see it coming out and going into their rooms, and it costs almost nothing to make. I headed over to one of my favorite stores: Hobby Lobby, of course. They have these little wooden door hangers for .79. I also grabbed a couple of packets of decorative buttons for $1.99 each. I already had the clothes pins and the paint so those cost me nothing. I began by painting the door hangers (I used tempera paints because that's what I had). Then I grabbed a fine point Sharpie and the clothes pins and started writing chores on them, making sure to write them correctly so they will clip on the right direction. The left

Hubby mentioned last night that he's HAD to wear green for the last 20 years. I didn't point out that the year he was in Kuwait he was actually in Khaki, but I thought he might go all rebellious on me and not wear green today. He did though. His button-down shirt that is an Army green color, no less.
We also had the cavatini for dinner tonight. Very yummy! I only had one that was sort of unhappy with it, which is considered a success. I have one 7x 11 pan full and just under half of a 9 x 13...still!!! It's a lot. We will definitely have leftovers tomorrow, but I don't think I can pull off having them eat it for two nights as leftovers. Next time I'll have to freeze or do it in a giveaway pan.
