Pool Time

 

Spent the morning visiting with Papa and playing in the pool.. FUN!!

Easter Bash 2011

Something Beautiful

Proof of Spring. This year we're going to attempt a wee bit of a garden, and my sugar snap peas are eager to begin. Their brussels sprouts friends are slightly less eager, and I think perhaps the carrots and onions may have been happier starting outside... we'll see!

We planted these seeds 6 days ago.

Bangle Snaps

Would you, could you, in the sun? Would you, could you, on the run?

 Just felt like throwing a rhyme out there. Your welcome.

 Messin' whith those dang beads again! This one was a custom request, a ten inch ankle bracelet in a dainty size. The gal ordering will be a blushing bride at the end of this summer and is going sans jewelry/straps the whole warm season to avoid tan lines, but wanted something she could wear that would be minimally noticeable should she get a white stripe. I love it, it's simple and turned out well! What do you think? Does this look like something you'd ever purchase to wear this summer? ( and if you've got a second, go check out my Bangle Snaps link on the right. It's a facebook page and not only am I a glutton for "likes" on the page, I'd really love some feedback ( good AND bad!) on the other things I've crafted!)

Stinky Eggy Goodness... and the blessing of children who won't touch them, leaving that much more for MEEEEEE!!!

Tea Time

Had my final Spring Tea on Thursday, and it was more than a little bitter sweet. The singing and the cuteness left me a wee bit blubbery. My littles are getting big.

Super Raegan ( also, how sad is that yard. Pathetic. Much intense dog poo guidance and grass fertilizing to happen soon)

Craft time

Something Beautiful

my ZUMBA baby. No one can encourage me like this little lady can, she LOVES to dance and she'd ZUMBA with me all day.

Many days, many many days, this cuppa' Joe is literally the only thing that keeps me sane. All of Central Oregon should be thankful for that, my bitchiness can spread like the plague.

Something Beautiful

Beads, beads and more beads! Every now and then I'll create something that just makes me happy. This is one of those things.

My Toof Fell Out!

Something Beautiful

A box of possibilities. We go through crayons like water in this house, Raegan draws and colors so much. Right around August when all the stores are gearing up for the new school year I go in and load up, buying box after box of the bright stuff so that my wee little artist will have fresh supplies when she needs them. 

Growing Up, Dang it.

That first little baby tooth came out tonight. It's been getting more and more wiggly, and by this afternoon the thing was just dangling in there. Then tonight, as I was tucking her in, she was just messing with it and all of a sudden she gasped... her tooth in her fingers and an incredulous smile on her face. It was awesome. We've hidden her tooth under her pillow in a special satin bag, and the toothfairy has strict instructions to stop at the store on [his] way back from work to pick up a tooth balloon...... One step away. The tooth that fills that hole will be an "adult" tooth, and that just doesn't seem right.

The last day of class is always the best day of class...
