{A Little Creative Inspiration}

Here are a few pics of my latest project. Heather and I created a Valentine mini book kit. We had a "Girls Night" last week and had such a great time! The book was a huge success. Check it out. I am just crazy about it.

Here is a picture of the bedding in Grant's room. It's called "Latte" by Glenna Jean and I L-O-V-E it!

And because I can't leave anything untouched, here are the wall plaques I made to match.

Crazy December

Well, it has once again been a crazy December. We left the week before Christmas to see my fam in CA so that we could be back in time to get the kids off to their respective parents. It was chaos trying to get everything done a week early, but it worked out. We got home on the 23rd and enjoyed being home together as a family. Terry was home quite a bit and got to enjoy the kids. It was awesome. Here are a couple of random shots from the past couple of weeks:

Chomps the Dinosaur!

This week we had a traveling visitor...it's Chomps the class pet! Yay. We did lots with Chomps. He went with us to see Grandma in California and had a great time. He got to go to the snow with us and throw snow balls. We loved having Chomps and hope he had fun too.

Have a Cool Yule!

My super creative photography genious (Rebekha Pailliotet) did our Christmas pictures recently. I've been uber eager to learn more about Photoshop and she offered to give me some tips and pointers. Here's what I ended up creating! This is my favorite family picture yet! Thanks Rebekha. You're the best.

Arrghhh Mateys!

Okay, first of all what am I thinking sitting here blogging? I have a whole house to make immaculate in less than 48 hours and I am worried about not having updated my blog? Crazy...I know. BUT, I couldn't resist sharing these adorable shots with you...
