My Homemade Gift " Office Kit "


This is an office kit that I put together for my mom's new position that she took at her job. The pictures are not the best but if you click on the pictures you can see them a little bit better. The binder clips are kinda multi purpose you can use them of course for your paper stacks but you can also use them as picture holders . The little binder clips you can put wallet size pictures in and the big binder clip can hold a bigger picture . They are really cute little holders.

Archiver's Acrylic Album Workshop

Last night I went and did a class at Archivers with Notasha. Here is what we made, I had a lot of fun and this album turned out really cute can't wait to do more albums like this. I guess you can buy acrylic scrapbook kits at archivers too which is nice so you don't have to buy every thing separately. So you know I will be getting some of these kits in the future.

Makayla is 1 1/2 Today

Today Makayla is 18 months and to celebrate she got a new play kitchen. Brian brought it home last night for her . Here is a picture of her playing with all the play food that was scattered all over the kitchen floor while her Dad was assembling the kitchen in the front room. She had to try every single piece of food by licking it, so we are not sure if she really thought it was real food or not. But either way she was really excited to have some new stuff to play with.

Makayla helping mommy with laundry



Makayla decided that she wanted to help mommy do the laundry today. So I had to snap a few pics. But as I looked down at her sitting there in the basket as I'm putting the dirty laundry in the machine, it just hit me that sooner then later she will be to big to sit in a laundry basket. She is just growing so fast! I feel it is so hard at times to catch every little special moment with her, just so I don't forget her at this age. So Sweet........................

Todays Forecast


Yep we are getting snow again I'm so
sick of the snow! Will we ever see spring
here in Minnesota. Certainly not used to
the weather we get here. Not saying that
Colorado couldn't get snow this time
of year. But before we left for Colorado
for Easter we were in the middle of a
storm ending in 6 to 9 inches. The
winter is just not this long in Colorado
and you get sun.....unlike here.

Take a look at our forecast, it really
bites!!! I guess we can look forward to
the weekend weather but after, we
will probably get snow again!

Tired Makayla

The results of Makayla at dinner time after having no afternoon nap.



I had a really hard time trying not to laugh while I was taking this video. I didn't want to wake her from the peaceful little snooze she was having.
