Both my girls are spring babies. Mid April and the End of May. And in there is my husband’s and brother’s birthday. And then it’s my nephew’s and my mom’s. So it’s birthday season in our house! And I love planning a good party. Especially kids parties. Children are so forgiving and so excited about […]

Where are we?
It’s surprising how fast the days go by! I love my girls so much and I know that I won’t get these days back. So while I long to be in my studio crafting, drafting, writing & sewing, I know they are more important. And they are why I have nap time, when I can […]
Keeping preoccupied…
So, I feel bad for not being active with my blogging. I am constantly thinking of things to blog about, and I even write them down! Part of the issue is time. I had my first full night of sleep last night. I know that once that becomes really consistent….like asap, I will be able […]
Share the Love, Day 3
Last year, I made this pennant Love banner at a Stampin’ Up Class. I meet Brenda through Kijiji of all places, after I bought a stamp set from her. I have gone to a few classes every year since and our daughters are about 6 months apart and do enjoy playing together while I make […]
Share the Love, Day 2
Here is the second instalment in our crafty ideas for Valentine’s day! Now Lil’ A just likes to cut, tear paper and maybe try the stapler for a few punches, so I usually end up finishing all the projects I am going to show you this week and next. I saw this idea at Michael’s […]
Share the Love Day 1…2nd Try..
Update: I thought I posted this on February 1st….obviously not. So today, February 5th, we will start this mini series of things for kids to do on (or leading up to) Valentine’s day. This year, I have bought into the “Hallmark” holiday. For the next two weeks, I will be featuring a new idea to […]
Thirty
Theres lots that I could say that surrounds this day for me. I’m thirty. I always had a list of things I wanted to do by the time I hit this milestone. Ive said good-bye to the single life, the dating life, the newlywed life, the globetrotter life, the teacher life. This is what I […]
Changing…
So after reading, and rereading this post by Emily Freeman I started thinking about me. The post really was a jumping off point for so many mid night thoughts… I have barely had time to think about my “New Year’s Goals”. I was starting to feel like I wasn’t going to have any. And because I am […]
Valentine’s Crafts
So, this year I decided to “celebrate” Valentine’s Day. It has been a way that Lil’ A and I can spend time doing crafts, which means she gets to practice her cutting skills. “Momma, can I cutty?” “Let’s do Cafts!” Yup, this is what I’ve been hearing for the last few weeks. She loves it. […]
From another
This past weekend I have been thinking about another post I read from Emily Freeman. My metro buddy, Sarah introduced me to her blog. God used this woman single handedly to helped my soul to breathe. I am so thankful for my friend, Sarah. She is the sister I didn’t have. I am thankful we can […]
