Exciting News!

I have been invited to be a Guest Designer for Magistical Memories Chipboard! My featured month will be November and I am super excited and honored! They have the BEST chipboard out there...seriously! Go check them out! I will post some creations using some of their stuff soon!

So After Some Thinking...

I'm not going to do MM Masters this year after all. I think I've got plenty on my plate for the time being. I want to be able to devote plenty of time for projects for the store. Plus this year me and my friends Teresa and Susan are going to have a craft booth at Neewollah (so look for us there!) We're going to have some fun goodies for people to purchase...recipe boxes, altered paint cans, cards, maybe some pre-made layouts...just to name a few things! I'm really excited about that, but I want to allow myself plenty of time to work on that stuff as well. So, here are some recent layouts...I've been wanting to share some of these for a while!

Have a great day everyone!

Finally...Some Thomas Pics!

Here they are! I couldn't narrow it down to one or two, so there are quite a few. Enjoy!



They had lots of fun Thomas toys for the kids to play with!


There was a big model train that went around a track...Tate really liked watching it!


My brave little man went down the huge air slide...twice! He had so much fun!




Hay bale maze...this cam in handy while we were waiting for our turn to ride the train!


Here comes Thomas!!


Choo! Choo!


On the train...


Less than five minutes after we left the parking lot...

Busy Week!

Okay, so already I'm a bad blogger! It's been such a busy week! Between going to Day Out With Thomas in Baldwin City last Sunday, some heavy duty house cleaning and a no-nap taking cranky 2 year-old this week, I have not gotten a lot done!

I got some great pictures from Sunday though and I will try to get them posted soon! Tate had a lot of fun and so did me and Brian. It was a nice day for spending time with family.

I have done some layouts the last few weeks but I can't post them because I'm going to enter Memory Makers Masters this year. It's probably a long shot, but I'm going to try anyway! The layouts I submit cannot be previously posted anywhere, so when I narrow down my choices I'll get some posted!

Hope everyone has had a great week!

He LOVES it!

All day today Tate walked around the house saying "I LOVE it...I LOVE my guitar mama!" We've been working on potty training the last couple of weeks and he's done really well and he's been really good lately, so on our most recent trip to WalMart we picked up this guitar. Tate has been eyeing it for months now and his eyes totally lit up when I stuck it in the shopping cart...well, it didn't actually make it past his lap. Normally he'll sleep on the way home from Bartlesville (an hour drive home), but not this time!

It's Official...

I've jumped on the blogging bandwagon! I hope to share a lot here...stories about my family, my artwork or just some ramblings about my day. More to come once I get all this figured out...
