Long Time, No Post!

Wow...its been a long time since my last post! Lots going on, Connor turned 8, work is crazed and I wish more than ever that I would win the lottery! Baseball ended, but we've had lots of fun things we've been doing like picnics, dodger games, pizza parties, sheesh!

Oh, and if you haven't heard about this already, there's an iPhone app called Hipstamatic. I just love this more than I can say, its so cool! The picture here is using this app when we were at a Dodger game on Connor's birthday! I've also been playing some with a new trial version of PSE, I'm looking forward to learning more, I'll post some of my projects soon!

More craziness coming, my mom's retirement, school ending, lots of changes coming. Bring on the Summer, I'm ready!

Late Night Projects

I finally shoe-horned some time to do a project this week. I love doing things for Connor's school, but sometimes its a lot for me to fit in. For example, this is the second year I'm making invites for parties that reward fundraising. Multiple parties and a lot of volume. In the middle of getting them together, my husband had a motorcycle accident. The good news is he's home and not in a hospital. But he broke multiple bones and may need pins in his ankle to put "Humpty" back together again.


So, I had a couple of late nights getting all 65 of the root beer float invites together. I do this to myself, I hate to not finish what I started. There were incredibly supportive friends offering help that, of course, I turned down. I tend to do very detailed, time consuming projects, so simplifying things is counter intuitive for me. But, here's what I made, and I do think they came out pretty cute afterall. Crafting is my therapy, afterall, so it all worked out!





Connor also lost his second front tooth, he looks really cute with his two front teeth out.
