Here are some pictures from the 4th! We hung out at Matt's cousin's house. The older kids look like Sparkler Ninjas and I love that little Kate wants to get right in with the big kids and play Xbox!

This kid with these kids are at Hume Lake Camp this week. And YES I am being one of those Moms that is missing him and it is too quiet around when normally all I crave is a quiet home with no yelling, whining and arguing. Go figure!

So to send him off, he needed a wallet. I have no idea where his wallet went, so I decided to make him a duct tape wallet. Super easy and fun to make! Instructions can be found here!

I also made this

for my cousin in law's birthday. It is from Sweetwater Scrapping and I just found out they have the cutest blog. Lots of good ideas an eye candy on there! Check it out!

Just sharing some of my Fav layouts, cards and projects!

Here is my take on The Creative Type's new Prompt 18- T-shirt insiration. I saw this Converse T and was instantly inspired!

Come play along! You have until June 28th and there is an AWESOME prize involved from this Beautiful Etsy Store!

Life has been busy with finishing up the school year, Matt transitioning into his new job and well - I guess for me- I am continuing to juggle a whole bunch of stuff.

I was very excited to see my neice Michaela graduate last week from Middle School.

And the following day - I hosted a baby show for my tennis friend Suzanne! She is so cute pregnant! The yucky color of those walls do not do her justice.



For the shower I made paper flower centerpieces. I first saw this idea from my friend Sylvia. It is super easy to create and you can change the color of paper to fit any kind of celebration. I added the butterfly lollipops (I think they are called Twinkle candy). I liked that addtion because they are "boingy" and add some cuteness! I also added the circulare cardboard flowers.

I knitted Baby Zoe her first tennis dress and I realized after I gave it to her that I did not take any pictures of it. But I was proud of it because it was my own design and it had a ruffle at the hem!

But I did take pictures of baby's first tennis shoes! I LOVE how they turned out and I think I will be adding these to my Esty shop. Suzanne shared the pattern with me and it is really easy to knit up. It goes row by row so there is no way to really mess it up!

Here are the layouts for Picture Me Perfect this Month. Got to play with fun product from Jenni Bowlin and Creative Cafe! This is for my neice Hannah that is going to France this summer (which I am freaking out over BTW)!

This one is of Tyler at Easter!

This one is of the boys from one of their theater productions!

EEEEEE! So excited! My blog will be getting a makeover soon! Stay tuned......
