Mini love
I made a great little mini for my god-daughter, who is FOUR! Handmade gifts can be tricky for little kids I think. There are so many toys and things out there for kids. I thought a little book she can fill out for herself would be fun. I made a little “all about me” for …
Wanna see the front?
Ok so I still have to stain things in the back and finish up some bits here in there so I want to save those pictures. But check out the front! Same view last summer: Curb in the same place and it looks so much bigger to me! Bj and my step dad made this …
Squeezing in Scraping
A couple weeks ago (or maybe last week—it’s all running together!) Sarah and I had an online scrapdate 🙂 Look at me using thickers! This next one is a scraplift (and then switched up a bit) from an old book I forgot how much I loved: Scrapbooking Life’s Little Moments. I hope it goes without …

We are
Dealing with some serious heat. Not getting enough sleep. Hoping our plants that were laid our in the yard today survive the weather. Learning new signs. Not spending any time on the computer. Swimming. Waiting for phone calls. Staining our teeth with fresh cherries. Wearing big girl undies everywhere we go. Eating BBQ leftovers… And …
IRL
I know, I know, I kind of fell off the map there. We have been working so hard on our yard; even recruiting my mother in law to come visit. And by visit we mean put to work! And then it rained, for two days, of course. Busy, busy we have been. In fact now …
