It's going to be CRAZY downtown . . . I might have to go down there with a girlfriend just to say we did it! :-)

Have a good rest of the week!

Superheros and Santa

Here is a photo of my little superheros on Halloween:

My 3 year old was Batman and my 6 year old was Ironman ~ aren't they adorable!



The day after Halloween, we went to visit Santa. He is such a fun Santa . . . this is the first year that Joe actually sat on his lap willingly (although you can see he is pulling a little to his right - away from Santa!)!





Hope you all had a great Halloween with your kids! We had 11 kids (and their parents (our friends!) over before trick-or-treating to have pumpkin pizza. It was a lot of fun and something we've decided to do again next year and maybe every year! Here's a photo of most of the kids in costume in our front yard (4 of the kids weren't there when I took the photo and then I forgot to get another one when everyone was there!):





Have a good week!

Aspen Snowman card & Frankenstein treat bag

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I had forgot my photobucket password and just got it figured out!

Here is a card I made for a party the other night using the little snowman from CTMH's Homeward Bound stamp set and Festive Thoughts. The paper is also CTMH - Aspen Lv. 2 paper pack. Enjoy!




This is one of the little treat bags I made the some of my boys' friends that came over on Halloween. I forgot to get a photo of the girl Frankenstein's . . . I'll try to get one and post! They were fun to make and soooo easy!

Our Christmas Card

Here is the Christmas card that we will be sending out to friends/family this year. The photo doesn't do it justice . . . it really is much cuter in real life!

I do think this is the simplest card I have ever made for our Christmas cards - whew! Good thing, because there is so much going on these days that SIMPLE IS GOOD! LOL!!

The photo of the boys (ages 3 and 6) was taken in May while we were razor clam digging at Copalis, WA. Unfortunately, I forgot my camera when we went on this trip (almost a crime in my book!) so I had to buy a disposable camera and the photos were just not as good of quality as they would have been had I had my camera - oh well - at least I got photos!

Razor clam digging is one of our family traditions and the only time we will pull the boys out of school (sorry, teachers!)! So, although it seems kinda like a silly photo to put on our Christmas cards, it is the photo that would mean the most to those that are close to us! I hope you enjoy it . . . . . .



The sentiment says: May the spirit of Christmas, (inside of card) warm your hearts all year long.

All products used were CTMH.

Christmas and Fall cards

Here are a couple of cards I did for a gathering last night. I wanted to come up with 2 different cards using the October Stamp of the Month (Annotations). Everyone seemed to like them and we had a lot of fun - thanks, Angie (and Pam for letting me borrow Evergreen!!). :-)





I finally got enlargements of the boys on their firsts days of school and our Christmas photo of the boys for our Christmas cards . . .so my goal this weekend is to get our Christmas card posted (that's easy) and get the boys First Day of School layouts done (that one's a little tougher). Check back this weekend to see if I get them done!

Have a great weekend everyone and, as always, thanks so much for visiting my blog and all of your wonderful comments on my work! :-)

Perfect day cards and holder

Scrap Bingo has been keeping me pretty busy, but I have found some time to play! I made this adorable little card holder and 3 coordinating cards to go in it. I saw this card holder on the CTMH bulletin board and thought it was so cute I had to try it. It will hold about 8-10 cards (with envelopes) so I've still got to make a few more!





I used the CTMH Perfect Day Lv. 2 paper pack - so cute! Happy Wednesday!
