Baby Update: Week 23

Monday, June 4, 2012


It's getting hotter people. I've luckily only had one bad bought of acid reflux that resulted in a pretty sleepless night; other than that it's been pretty smooth sailing. Although I did get a call from my doctor's office today saying that my blood transfusion with the twins resulted in antibodies being formed and Braden's blood has those antibodies, so I may need to be transferred to a specialist. Not stressing or anything, everything will work itself out; it's just a circumstance I wished we could have avoided but C'est La Vie. I'll keep everyone updated on the progress.

Jessica Sprague 7 Days in May Challenge

Tuesday, May 22, 2012

Have you guys heard of Jessica Sprague? She's a fantastic Digital Scrapbooking Guru and the owner of one of the best scrapbooking sites around. 


I've been a part of her mailing list forever, but I finally checked out one of the newsletters she sent me and I found the most awesome challenge- 7 Days in May!


I figured it would be a good way for me to start thinking outside the box with what I generally create and start actually "scrapbooking" more and adding journaling to my photos and designs. So I dove right into the challenge and created this digital layout:



They have a new challenge today and a free download frame, so head on over there and join in the fun!

 I have wanted a Macro lens for sooooo long, so I borrowed my sister's Macro lens attachment- pretty confusing and hard to use :( So I just snapped on my 50 mm and got as close as I possibly could to my veggies I harvested this morning from our garden! Photographing the veggies might be my favorite part about gardening (um, after the eating ;)

Lemonade Teacher Gift

Thursday, May 17, 2012

Penelope & Landen's Last Day of Preschool was Tuesday. We were so sad to see their Preschool teacher go, but we are so stinkin excited for the summer! I've been hoarding a ton of ideas to make this the best summer break ever for both me & my kids, I can't wait to share them all with you guys. But first, I'll share my impromptu teacher gift that I whipped up for Miss Crystal




I snagged the pitcher at Wal-mart, then swung by the produce section and grabbed some lemons & some fresh mint. I threw in a can of my mom's Lemonade Mix she juiced and mixed with a simple syrup from all her glorious lemons from her tree. I topped the jar with some directions, and added a wooden spoon I also grabbed from Wal-mart, and a tea towel embellished with my favorite yellow damask fabric I quickly sewed onto the towel. Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy gifting!
