Sketchy Thursday Lay-out & Fair Pics

Last night we went to the state fair. We hadn't been in a couple of years so it was fun to go see everything. Blake did not like his pony ride...definetely not worth the $6.00 since he hated it, but it was kind of funny watching his face. Here's a picture showing how he felt about the pony ride

I think the elephant ear though made up for the pony ride. He couldn't get enough of it-he kept shoving his mouth full and then he make the sign more "More". What a cutie!

I was able to scrap a little this morning. I saw the sketch at Sketchy Thursday and loved it! I knew I had the perfect picture for it from Blake's first birthday.

I took two of the Martha Stewart doilies and altered them a little:

I used the Basic Grey chipboard numbers-covered the #1 with white cardstock, ink it, added some fiber from CTMH and a stamped star to tie it into the lay-out.

Well, I'm off to get some cleaning done and to get ready for a BBQ later today!

Happy Holiday Weekend!

Happy Holiday Weekend everyone! Yeah!! I told my sister well over a year ago that I would make her a perpetual calendar for birthdays/anniversaries and I finally got it done yesterday. Here are some pics of a couple of the months (my camera and I were fighting yesterday when I was taking pics so these aren't very good, but these are the *good ones*).

I was also able to do a scrap page yesterday of Blake with some of the Pebbles product I won from their giveaway and I fell in love with their products - they were so fun to play with!

Journaling reads: You have such a sweet, innocent smile. It warms my heart everytime I see it. Oh the trouble you're going to get into when you're older with a smile like that!

Here's a close-up:
Have a happy and safe holiday weekend!

I'm Here

Hello Everyone! I know-where have I been...sheesh! Well I got some sort of flu which isn't supposed to happen in summer is it? We've also been soo busy around here!

Here's a card I made this past weekend:

I received my package in the mail last week with my goodies I won from Pebbles Inc. how cute is all of this stuff! I'm so excited to work with the products!

And here are a couple of pictures of my cute little man...how is he getting so big? We're in the process of looking for a 'big boy' bed for him. Our deal is when he moves to a 'big boy' bed; we're going to redo his room to John Deere tractors (it's currently vintage airplanes which I love, but he absolutely adores tractors). I'm soo excited! I've already started gathering stuff! Well I'm off to work on some projects. Be back soon!

Have a great day!

Here's one of Blake waiting for Daddy to get home from work. (He climbs up on our window seat in the kitchen and watches the driveway...so stinkin' cute!)
