Thank You!

For teacher appreciation day the kids and I decided to make jars full of candy and then write one of those cheesy sayings to go along with it. They were so excited to go to school and give them to their fabulous teachers. Noticed that Noah made me change the "Love," to "From,". Crazy kid.

I'm Back

I have recommitted myself to the blogging world. It has been one of those things (like alot in my life) that I swear I am going to do later and later now has become 5months. So lets start with the present.
One of my favorite things to do is to throw a baby shower. I love the fact that I am not the one pregnant and that a new little one will be arriving soon. My other favorite things are birds. I have been having so much fun making them and these little ones are so easy and fun to make (here is the pattern). I decided to combine the two for my friend Mindy. Wonderful food and good friends always make for a great time.

Raining Saturday

What to do with the kids on a raining Saturday. Go to the Ruehben H. Fleet Science Center down in Balboa Park. We went with some friends and had a blast. Almost 5 hours worth of fun.

Blue and Gold 2009

I had a proud mom moment, when my son gave a talk to about 300 people at the blue and gold banquet. His Papa gave him a metal he received while serving in the air force and Noah talk about it. I think, actually I know I was more nervous then he was. He was so calm and did such a wonderful job.
The theme for the evening was "America." I had to decorate our tables for our pack(732) and make a cake. What a fun evening!

I just finished these birds for a bride. Her fiance wears an Alabama baseball cap and she asked me to make one. I love making these custom for people. They all defintly have there own personalilties when they are done.

I'm not tired

My husband was gone and it was 9:30 on a Sunday night and my kids would not go to bed. They had every excuse in the book to why they couldn't go to sleep. The over exhausted in need of a serious break me told them to get into my bed and watch T.V. After a few fights and giggles they were out in 30 minutes.
No matter how much kids drive you crazy, sleeping children always put a smile on your face and make you want to do it all over again the next day.

Everything is better when you have a flower in your hair.

I am addicted in making, wearing, and putting these felt flower clips in my and any little girls hair that I can. My friend Amy showed me how to make these and I just can't get enough.
