so we're back from the big T. it was a nice visit. it was an unwanted & unexpected, yet tolerable overnight stay in denver on the way home. but, we were thrilled to be back. i havent had time to slow down from traveling yet though. here's approximately what i've been through in the past few days:

now, toss in the antics and alterior motives of a toddler and there you have it. tomorrow i have a playdate, a need to drop off some stuff at the SB store, and something else that i've already forgotten. i wish husband would return home. i seem to slow down a whole lot when he's around. lazy bastard...
anywho, photos will be updated soon. projects will be updated soon. i might be a sane person soon, but dont count on any of it...

that makes me realize how busy we mommas really are! glad your back, so you can blog. what was that thing you applied for-hambly dt? huh? is this an american thing?
hambly is a company that produces paper(like) goods. they are one of my favorite "brands" in the scrapbooking community atm. DT=design time (just in case we didnt know).
you can check out hambley @ hamblyscreenprints.com and maybe put in a good word for me if it comes down to it. *wink, wink* if anyone is interested in purchasing a little hambly, twopeasinabucket.com is my favorite place to score hambly.
