Creative Weekend

Who's ready to go to Granny and Pappy's?
Here are the kiddos all packed by noneother than Miss J herself!!!
Notice Reed's name on his blue suitcase...his mom did that! :)
After I'd packed away all my stuff, I thought I should add a little airplane or train under his name! Too cute! Another day...
What's mommy doing while the kiddos are away?
Crafting of course...and sleeping late! Thanks Granny and Pappy!
I followed this tutorial to make Faux Mercury Glass
BEAUTIFUL!!!
I started out small with glass I had laying around the house...not bad for a first attempt!
And remember this little project...Part 1
I cooked spaghetti for supper one night this week...cooking ahead is another thing mommy can do while kiddos are having fun at Granny and Pappy's!!!
And Part 2
Save you pasta sauce jars and let me know if you'd like a set...might make a nice gift for someone too...of course, you'd use nicer glassware!

More Projects

Ok...so I've been doing some more crafting...
I made this cute shirt for my little "love"
Here she is modeling it!
:)
I think she likes it!
She was so proud(and so was I!!!) to tell her friends that her mommy had made it for her!
I also did some glass etching...so fun!
The pitcher is for my neighbor with an "A"
I did an "F" and a fleur d lis on the opposite side of a vase!
This is part one of a project I'm working on!
It's a pasta sauce jar for my utensils!!!
We have two more jars of pasta to empty before I can do the spoons and knives!
Can't wait!

Super Bowl Sunday

Flashback: One year ago today...
Reed watching his 1st Superbowl!And him yesterday...Not a little one any more!

Rodeo

We saddled up our cowgirl and little cowboy and joined the Rodeo crowd this weekend!
Julian had to have a rope...she knows a little cowpoke who has a rope! :)
Now she's swinging one, too!
Thanks Granny and Pappy! Can't wait till next year!
Julian...miss shy...actually walked up to this Queen and asked her if she would take a picture with her! Funny how kids will do something if it's what they want!
PRICELESS!!!

LOVE IT!

We've had one for a week or so and I knew I'd LOVE IT, but knew I'd never have the time!
I've felt that way for the week or so we've had it...we've made a few t-shirts...when I say we, I mean Mike and I! He wanted this thing too! To make t-shirts with the heat transfer vinyl!
But I pull it out, play with it and...NOTHING! I can't think of what to create...until today!
I hit it big time with a trip to Target!
Check out what I did while Reed took a nap and Julian went with Daddy to the property!
I even had time to post about it!
:) Makes me smile!
Let me know what you think...
These are gifts for daycare...
