OMG! FUN DAYS!

in san diego. having a super fun time with out too many worries nagging me. tyler and i made the trip down yesterday. long drive but we made it at a reasonable time. it rained here last night. which was weird. but we ended up walking back from dinner in it and it was awesome. today was a bunch of time killing. hitting the beach in a few. tomorrow is DISNEYLAND! and then i have no idea. may drive home tuesday night/wednesday or sick around, go to the zoo on wed again and head home thurs or ???????? we shall see.

anywho, for those of you know dont know, the sampler has a new dt call up! check it out at the crop spot and here is a house i finally finished altering. i need to post the before photos. it was in sad shape. super cute now. check out those box feet from tim holtz! how rad are those?!?!!?

i need a glass of water

Clearly i've gotten a hold of some new My Little Shoebox. Super cute stuff. I love how they use bright colors in their lines, but they're not always super bright. Kinda? does that even make sense? I've been holding on to this shot of our house number for quiet some time.

OH and i've been back on an alpha kick lately. MLS and cosmo cricket have some rockin alphas these days.

Shouldnt all cupcakes be pink?! Speaking of, i think i want to do some baking this weekend. or make something other than dinner. With any luck, we've really started spring and the weather is going to stick like it has been the past couple days. freakin fantastic. the sun is warm and the breeze is cool. love it! need to stock up on some sunscreen while i'm thinking about it. the couple tubes i have left wont make it much longer if things stay like this.

oh! new review up at The Crop Spot with some new layouts there. fun stuff!

im going to get a glass of water now i think.

i dont know what you kids think...

.. but i think tyler is sick of my crap... and i am too. we have colds and they suuuuuuuuuuuuuck. well mind does, tyler doesnt seem to care much anymore. i guess he feels better. anywho, this is how i'm killing the next few minutes before i need to scoop him up from his SECOND day of pre-school. when i showed up on tuesday to pick him up, he cried because he didnt want to miss afternoon circle time. lesson learned about coming early. that kid hates me some days...

Another week just about done. super hectic weekend coming up with celebrating Easter and being with family. Tyler has been super stoked on the idea of dying easter eggs tomorrow. We will see if he's as interested when we get down to dying. Thinking a house hunt for easter eggs might be called for on sunday though if the weather is going to be moist.



Made cards this week. On my desk currently are new templates from Crafter's Workshop. Loving the Cherry Blossom, Mums and Tree of Life. All super awesome!

anywho, have a great weekend!
