FRANKIE!

Just a fun little card I made using some punches. I am going to post a pic tomorrow of the one that McKinley made. I am so proud of the job she did on it :)

A very Happy Halloween!

t


This year for Halloween we just went down town and went to all of the businesses. It was quick and easy... absolutely the way to go. Not to mention, that is was super warm out. Sophie didn't mind her costume at all. She slept most of the time we were out. Teagan didn't go with us this year. He decided he wanted to go to his grandma's house and Trick-or-treat with her. I have already picked all of the "bad" (wink) candy out of Kinley's bag for her!! Now I have my own small stock of chocolate! :) I'd have to say that this was one of the most laid back Halloweens that I have had in a long time. Hope you all had a good time too :)

Just a few more pics.

How cool is it that Sophie got to meet her great grandparents?

All the cousins :)

Here is a pic we shot of the kids when we were in Boise a few weeks back. Can I just tell you what a joke it was trying to get these little turds to hold still or keep their fingers out of their noses!?! Good thing they are so dang cute or we'd have lost it. The two little boys are my nephews... Tristan and Roman. Aren't they cute? Anyway, thought I'd share.

Random card

I don't know anybody at all who is about to turn two, but I really wanted to stamp. I just had an extra chipboard "2" so that is what I decided to use. I know that that is strange, but I was determined to create something.... goal accomplished.

By the way, sorry about the blurry pics. I shake soooo badly for some reason.

Flash back to last Halloween!

I just love this set and this card... I know that I showed all of you this last year, but here it is again ;)

Kids

Just thought that I'd share a few pics really fast. I have a lot to say and a bunch of cards and projects to post. I am going to do that tomorrow... that's the plan anyway.

It's been a long time

WOW!!

I need to update this a bit more often. Things have just been a bit crazy lately.... new baby... new car... PTO... school starting... stamping. A lot of changes. Sophie is growing up so fast. We are truly bless to have such a wonderful baby. She is always smiling (when she's not eating) and most of the time she doesn't fuss. As you can see from her pic, she is a big girl. Sophie already weighs in at 14 lbs. She is barely 3 months old ya know. We love her to death and are so glad that we decided to have another baby. I think that Leif is already thinking about 1 more. I, on the other hand, am fine for now.
We finally got us a new van. Other than the payment, we love it. The window on the driver's side actually rolls down so that when I drive through at the coffee shop, I don't look like a huge dweeb opening my door to order my mocha!! It's awesome. We can't wait to drive it to Boise in a few weeks. Leif is taking me to a Reba concert in Boise. He must love me because he HATES Reba. The truth is that I have been dying to go to one of her concerts. She finally decided to come somewhat close to us. My friend and I were going to go, but it just so happens that her little boy should be born around then and she didn't want to ruin the concert by giving birth while there. So, I guess Leif is kinda stuck. It's going to be awesome though!

Teagan is back in school.... I really hate school. I wish that summer was longer. PTO is the same as always... a ton of work and no appreciation from the administrater. I have been stamping here and there. I have some pics to post if I can find where I saved them at on my puter. When Leif gets home he will help me find them.

Anyway, you've heard enough. I'll be back soon.

Sophie is FINALLY here!

Boy, am I glad to have that over with! Sophie was born on Friday, June 20th @ 8:10 a.m. She weighed 8 lbs 13 oz. BIG GIRL!! I am so excited that she has hair... my other two were completely bald. She is healthy and happy. We are all happy to have her home with us. It's been fun to dress her up in all of her new clothes and hair bows. McKinley just loves her to death. I'll post more pics soon.

Happy Birthday to me!

Okay, I did end up getting the seat cover thingy from Leif. I am sending it back because he also bought me a really awesome new office chair. (soft and pink) Plus, it was just not as cool in person. Won't hold very much of my stuff if I take it scrappin.... and so it is not what I'd pictured. Anyway, Leif's gma gave me a bunch of money for my birthday and I decided to buy myself a Nintendo DS with it! Plus I bought a game... brain age 2. It is kindof hard. I won't tell you how old my brain is according to the "doc". I played it for hours today and now it is time to clean my house. I was told to stay down if I could so this was a perfect thing to buy myself.... don't you think?!? I wonder what Leif's gma will say when I tell her what I got with the money she sent me... ha ha!

Do I need this??

I just came across this thingy! I think it is awesome. They call it the Komfycush... I, however, think a more clever name would have been Komfytoosh!! It's pretty cool for taking along when you go scrappin' somewhere besides home. What do you all think??

New Shoes!!

I had to show all of you my new Chacos!! They are kindof an early birthday present. For those of you who don't know, these are the most comfy shoes ever. Plus, you can wear them in the water, camping, walking, pretty much anywhere. This is the hipthong. They are, of coarse, pink and brown. (or as McKinley would say, "pink and chocolate") My two favorite colors. Leif won't let me wear them until my birthday on Saturday though :( He's so mean sometimes. Anyhow, I am sure you couldn't care less about what kind of shoes I have, but I LOVE them and had to share.
If you want to see other colors check 'em out at...
