More Park Pictures!

Here are a few more pictures from when we went to the park yesterday! Bo does not like grass as of yet.....to prickly. He will probably get used to it by summer time though, hopefully. A game Boaz really likes and would play all day if he could is "where's Boaz?" He covers his eyes and waits a few seconds and then takes his hands downs and smiles really big and laughs! So cute!

Playing at the park!

Spring Sensation!

Ok so this past weekend I was in a card making mood! On the first tree cards here I used Apricot Appeal, Wild Wasabi, and Regal Rose. I really like these colors together! The first card I used the Polka dots and Paisley stamp set and the Reason to smile (?) retired hostess set. I embossed the little flower with Iridescent Ice and then added a little ribbon that I got from Michael and then added the two little eyelets. I actually used the reason to smile on the second one as well. I also just used my Galaxy marker and filled in some of the little dots in the background and added ribbon. Simple but I thought it was cute. Now this third card is not my favorite. I played and played around with it but nothing seemed to work, so this is was the end result. I stilll don't like it but oh well.

Now these two cards a did like a month ago. They were both layout challenges for SCS. The first is a 5x5 card. I used Rose red and Chocolate Chip card stock. I punched the circle and then stamped the flower in it. I also added some double sided sticky tape to the flower and then added some little beads. I used DP from Hobby Lobby and then just added the ribbon and eyelets. The last card is a little dark but it looks better in person. I used Chocolate chip, purely Pomegranate and barely Banana. I used the Happy harmony stamp set, sponged the edges and then added the flower with the cute little flower brad in the middle. This was an easy card to make and an easy challenge.

Photo Box

I got this idea from a friend. I didn't have a template or directions so I just winged it. But I think it turned out super cute! What a great gift idea! What you will need: 7 sheets of 12x12 DP, Glue dots, cutter, double sided tape or other adhesive, and embellishments and ribbon of your choice.

Starting with your 12x12 paper, I drew the template on the back of each sheet. the first two sheets are the first layer of the box and it measures 4x4 when put together. the next layer measures3 3/4x 3 3/34, The last layer measures 3 1/2 x 3 1/2. Now if you want the template just leave a comment and I can upload or send you a picture of it. Each layer also get just about 2/8 of an inch shorter as they go in. Once all paper is cut then I taped them together in the center. Now you should only have one piece of DP left and that is for the top of the box. Mine measured out to be I think 4 1/4 x 4 1/4. These are the finished measurements by the way. Once the box was all assembled I put different embellishments on it and I made the flowers that sit on top of the box. So take a look at the pictures and let me know if you have any questions. This project took me about 2 hours to make, but now that I have the template and know what I am doing the second one won't take quite as long maybe 30-45 minutes start to finish.

Bo's first hair cut!

So this past weekend Bo got his first hair cut. Jis hair was getting so long that he almost looked like he was getting a mullet, and we don't want that yuk. So Jason pulled out the clippers and cut his hair. He did surprisingly well. At first he wanted to see what dad was doing but then he just played with some of the hair that fell into the sink. Then after his hair cut I gave him a bath and combed his hair. He looked so stinkin cute! Then it was bed time and we brushed his teeth!

Lucky You!

This was a card for two different Challenges last week I believe. We were to use only Two coordinating papers, and then the layout was for the other challenge. I love the way this card turned out! Some have said it is a little busy but I still like it! I got the paper from Hobby Lobby. I also used Chocolate Chip and Mellow moss (Will have to double check on that?) I also just tied the three different ribbons to the Brown polka dot and the white ribbons. I layered two coordinating flowers and stuck a brad through them.

I liked this paper so much I went back to Hobby Lobby today and got some more! =)

I love Bubblegum!!!

You Are Bubblegum Flavored Gum

You are friendly, outgoing, and energetic. You love life, and you can always find some reason to smile. You are a bit hyper, and you're always looking for your next challenge. You love getting things done - and you are usually on the go. Your confidence and positive attitude makes you a very attractive person. You can be a little flaky at times, but people are able to overlook that - because you're so fun!

What Flavor Gum Are You?

more Birthday Pics!

Jason Manned the grill, we did make your own Kabobs! They sure turned out yummy! Bo also loved eating his cake. We still have some left=) For his birthday he got outside toys! A wagon, lawn mower, bike, swimming pool, sand/water toys! He had a hay day opening presents. Although at one point he didn't want to open any more he just wanted to play with what was already open! Silly Boy!

Bo playing with Balloons!!!

Cars cake!

Well first off, Boaz really loves balloons! I have a video I will post later. It's super cute! Well the theme for Bo's birthday was "Cars" from the Disney movie! My friend Tami who used to be my neighbor from across the street made Bo's birthday cake. She did such an amazing job! She even made Bo his own little cake for him to eat and destroy all by himself. I also have a video of that, which I will post later! We had a lot of fun Jason's parents, grandparents, aunt and uncle and his cousin were all able to down for his party! I know Bo had a blast!

Playing with his truck!

Bo and his wagon!

Grandma and Grandpa Murnion got Bo this wagon for his 1st birthday! he loves it. We are going to try it out this afternoon and go for a walk to the park! He keeps wanting to get in it because we have it in our front room! It is really nice out side 70 degrees so we will have to go out!

Bo's Wagon!

It's been awhile...

I know I know I know, it really has been awhile since I have put anything new on my blog. So many people have been asking for updates and I promise I will work on it this afternoon! I just have to get some laundry done first, then I will have a few minutes to upload all the pictures on my camera! So be watching this afternoon and evening!

More park fun!

At the park today they had this little area where kids who couldn't climb the playground equipment yet could play. Anyways, Bo is in his castle and was loving every minute of it! He really liked banging on the poles next to the little castle! =)

Enjoying the weather at the park!

Today Bo and I went for a nice walk. It was 67 degrees outside, needless to say all our snow that we got on Thursday is now melted. We stopped at the park close to our house and I pushed Bo in the swing. He was loving it. He really likes being outside, which is great because we will be spending a lot of time at the park or at the pool all summer!

Fun in the Snow!

Last Thursday night we got dumped on as far as snow goes. We got a total of nine inches. So on Saturday we got Bo all bundled up in his snow suit and took him outside to have his first "Snow" experience. At first he didn't know what to think, other than "I can't move". Then he was having fun for awhile and then it turned into I am done. Yes in the first picture, if you look closely, that is totally a big bugger coming out of his nose, haha. Boaz was able to stand up in the snow all by himself. However he wanted nothing to do with crawling in it. We tried to get him to make a snow angel but he didn't like that either. Oh well, He will grow into doing those things! W had fun though!

Pen pal cards!

Here are two cards that I made for this pen pal group I am apart of! i got to use my new cuttlebug, and I cut out the little feet and flip flops! I like that one because it is very springy!

Back again, with news!

WOW, It has been awhile. I am soooo sorry. Well I seem to have misplaced the CD with all the pictures from Christmas and New Years, so when I locate that I will up load those. However, I have several from the past month or so that I will upload. Things have been crazy at times since Christmas. It has been good though. As many of you already know, we are expecting Baby number two in August! We are very happy and excited. I am hoping for a girl and of course Jason wants another Boy, but we will be happy with either! I have my first doctors appointment today! I am twelve weeks. I am finally approaching the three month mark and am starting to feel better! No more morning sickness, yay! I have been busy switching Bo's room with the guest room, because the guest room was bigger and would be easier to house two kids. I just have to finish p the guest/craft room, but it shouldn't take me long.
Well, all this afternoon I will be posting pictures so be sure to check back later to see them!!!
