TOGETHER

I never win anything! BUT i got a nice gift in the mail from The AnyWhere Studio ! At CE last year liz was heidi's assistant in class, she meantioned her studio and i have been following her blog ever since. So a few weeks ago she had people guess what she was so excited about and i guessed right! The AnyWhere Studio was up and running, so she sent me the class for free! It was great to get the whole kit in the mail. Here are some pictures so you can see all the coool stuff in the Board Book Class. I got so much cool stuff in the kit, and packaged so nice i might add. I have not yet made anything with it yet, i think i am going to save it for something really cool. I plan on purchasing more of her classes though. check out her site, she is talented. I went skiing this past weekend, so fun, so many fun people, excellent conditions. it was a long day but well worth it. Sunday i had to work all day for the superbowl so today i am trying to catch up. It is freezing here so we have b...

"where did you learn that song grace?" grandma taught me. should i monitor the time grandma & grace spend together?

Mahna Mahna this is funny. My friend Shelly just gave me a new cd her brother made her with the versions of this song by cake. I just love it and have been playing it over & over. I told my other friends Stacey & Gerry about it and i think they kind of made fun of me because it is a sesame street song. Then i found this video. LOVE IT! keep in mind stacey & gerry should not be making fun of anyone who watches sesame street, they have 3 kids. so anyway here is the link for the cake song: Star Wars Mahna Mahna

My dear friend Wendy's birthday was last week, so days before i started her tag album for 2 reasons. 1) i am always trying to finish whatever project i have minutes before they need to finished. 2) I got this Creative Imaginations paper and sticker set and loved it so much i wanted to rush right home and use them! i had fun creating this project. it went along so smoothly i got to use all of my latest obsessions, inking, sanding, and the crop-a-dile. here are pictures of some of it, it was 6 chipboards i covered so it ended up being about 12 spots to add whatever she would like. i just came across a picture of wendys birthday last year at the winery...such fun.

2007 has not started off the best. Now 10 days in it is looking a little better. It started on new years eve, we traveled to michigan to hang out with houstons, sagermans, & geigers. half way there leaving ohio we hydroplaned across the turnpike, took out a guard rail, spun into a ravene & totaled our car. everyone was ok thankfully. kids were not even effected. the whole thing has just been a huge irritation though figuring out if we were going to get a new car. yes we are, so what car will i get? still do not know, i DO NOT want to go and buy a car, there is nothing enjoyable about it as far as i am concerned. then... three days into the new year, wyatt gets a fever. i figure it is whatever from being around 8 kids the weekend before, tylenol, motrin then it will go away. five days later he still has the fever. ok i am not that bad of a parent, the fever was under control with doses of tylenol then motrin 4 hours after. i even went out to buy a real thermometer so i could kee...

here are the christmas projects i threw together when trying to decorate. It turned out to be a mod podge & glitter theme. I started using the mod podge in dd big picture class and couldnt stop. i made little ornament frames that hold a picture and put them of the kids and their cousins all over these three wreaths. here are a few close ups of the little ornament frames: then i cut out chipboard letters covered them with red cardstock, sprayed them with the glitter spray & strung them with string. these were fun. some of the pictures did not turn out so clear, sorry about that. i am getting ready to take the tree down, so i wanted to get these posted before i destruct!
