Today was a super busy totally fun day that involved swim lessons, chickens, a splash fountain, skinned knees, and long drives. But of course I took no pictures so I’m sharing some from a week ago. I got this tub of beans idea from Sew Liberated, who was a trained as a Montessori teacher and …

Showered
I had a fabulous weekend, and I hope you did too! Saturday after our toddler music class we drove to Corvallis for the fall festival. We got to hang out with Sarah who snapped this photo. Ah my two loves! So sweet. Sunday was the shower in honor of Kathy, who is due next month. …
On the brain
Ugh, Bj’s cold attacked me too! Yuck! I hate being sick, and having my ears plugged like this. I’m mostly better but it will be a happy day when I can pop my ears, that’s for sure! One thing I managed to do while sick was make up this cute banner for a baby shower …
Picking in the Rain
This morning their was a break in the drizzle we’ve had for a few days and Tuesday and I worked out in the yard trimming, dead-heading, and weeding. Tuesday didn’t just stick by the tomato plants and eat them non stop like usual (though she did pick a couple of peppers). I think that is …
Scraplifting, old school style

The Beach
We had a great weekend. Saturday we picked up Sarah and headed to the coast. Tuesday spots the big water (her sign for water is a finger by her mouth… she can’t quite make the “w” sign). For some reason the water was quite nasty, lots of foam, so she wasn’t able to play in …
I can’t seem to stop myself…
Just a few more layouts to share. My sewing machine has been getting a little tune up and will be coming home tomorrow, so maybe I’ll switch it up and sew this weekend. But for now… An 8 1/2 by 11 landscape, totally mixing it up. Actually I stamped on a 12×12 piece of paper …
Memory Keeping and Art Making
Tuesday and I had a day up in Portland today and on the drive back while she was sleeping (yeah!) I had some time to do that daydreamy thought thing. I sometimes have thoughts that maybe scrapbooking is a waste of time and supplies… like when I go on a fun scrapbook supply buying binge. …
