October (rest of at least) Layouts

Catch up time! :) I'm such a slacker! ;) So some of these layouts are of recent events/everyday happenings, others are ones I'm just now getting to. I feel like a scrapbooker is perpetually behind! ;) Fourth of July- finally finished! A memory Layout of our lil Mijo-man. Our empty garage pic- only moved a year ago! ;) And, Decs in a pumpkin is OBVIOUSLY from last year- we'd need one H-U-G-E pumpkin to fit that lil monster now! :)

Hayden Funny!

So- since this is sorta a long story- I figured I'd post it here on the blog than my facebook (which my blog gets posted at anyways...)  And- since I ~DO~ have a few readers (ahem...sue, christina...) ;)

Anyhow- the other night at dinner...

Hayden says "Mommy, you would never ground me would you?"

Me: "I probably would if you did something that broke the rules and deserved it"

Hayden: "But mommy, you're kidding me right? You'd never ground me?"

Me: "Yes, Hayden I would ground you, and probably will when you are a teenager, since teenagers like to break rules."

Hayden: *WITH HUGE TEARS ABOUT TO FALL FROM HER EYES* "But Mommy....I don't want to be grounded!"

Me: "Hayden, do you know what 'grounded' means?"

Hayden: "Yes, it means you bury me in the back yard!"

Jeremy & I ~DIED~ laughing.

So- despite just leaving it like that and TOTALLY using that shit as a great motivator for her to follow our rules & be good... I owned up & told her what it really meant. Needless to say, she still doesn't want to lose her tv privileges.


And since it makes me physically ill to not post a picture with a post- Here's our lil miss Sassafrass & brother at the apple orchard the other day! :)

crazy busy life!

As usual- this blog is the last thing on my mind! :) We've had a crazy busy September- I've been working at a couple different offices doing maternity leave coverages, plus my one day a week permanent position; Hayden started Pre-K; Traveling to the West Side for weddings after weddings & Trying to squeeze as much lake time in as Summer fades into Fall!  Despite all this- I have been able to keep up on my creative team duties- as well as add one more! I was graciously accepted onto Mommyish Graphic Designs creative team! I ~LOVE~ her stuff & am more than excited to show off to all of you in digi-land (and my mom- I swear the only person who reads this blog!) ;)

Without further ado:

Here's a crap-load of layouts:

Great-Grandma will be 100!!!!!

I am totally a "I can make that for way cheaper" kinda gal (thus my pinterest ADDICTION!), so when my mom asked me to make an invite for my Great-Grandma Esther's 100th Birthday party- I was all over it. We found this one at www.paperstyle.com that we really liked.  After personalizing it (aka- after hours of scouring my external hard drive for a photo of her without a great-great-grandchild on her lap)- I took the easy route & ponied up the cash to just purchase these ones! Seriously- less than $40 for 20 (including envelopes & shipping). The amount of time alone I would spend trying to exactly copy or... design one similar, plus printing then purchasing envelopes would be the same, if not more. So- Friends & Family of my AWESOME STILL BOWLING STRIKES Great Grandma- watch your mailbox! ;)  And- if you don't get one in your mailbox (because yes, I am too cheap to buy enough for her ENTIRE HUGEMONGOUS family)- You're invited!  See ya there! ;)
