It's Wednesday again! Today is Vanessa's very last day of preschool, so hard to believe she isn't my little 2.5 year old on her first day of preschool anymore- that was 2 years ago!! So, to celebrate, we are taking an extra long weekend to just hang out before she makes the trek to Kindergarten next Tuesday morning.

And, I'll leave you with a silly layout about the day Robyn discovered the belly slide :)



Have a great day and wonderful weekend! :)

Hey there! Just wanted to show off my pretty princesses this morning. *sigh* they are growing up so fast!!


We are having some beautiful end of summer weather, perfect for sleeping with the windows open and playing outside without getting all sweaty! I hope it stays like this for a few weeks...still not ready for the official colder weather of "fall".

Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Friday! Just popping in with a quick post of a layout. My little girl is starting kindergarten soon and she is very excited about it, so I wanted to make sure to record her excitement, and my tiny bit of sadness to see her growing up and being a big girl.


I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday!
Just wanted to share real quick this morning the layout I did for this weeks I Inspire Me Challenge. The theme for this week was Jewelry. I really like the debossed flower design on this little ring I have, so I recreated similar debossed flowers, then used the exacto to give the flowers a little lift.




I'm heading out today for a big meeting, so if you have some lucky vibes to share, send them my way please! Have a wonderful day!

Oh my...I have not been so good lately about giving the blog some attention. Have I mentioned that things are just extremely busy around here lately? I think the next couple of weeks are going to be just as busy too.
Speaking of being busy, today I just had to step away from it for a second and make something for fun real quick. Sometimes it just has to be done! And now that I got it out of my system, I can get back to my work and do a better job at it :)
So, here's my quick little layout today called "race" - just grabbed some things out of the box of scraps and went to it!



Now, if you can- take a quick break and go make a little something just for fun! Come on, you can do it too :)
Have a great day!

I meant to get on here yesterday and post about this week's I Inspire Me challenge to be inspired by stationery, but unfortunately, a stomach virus got me instead and I was just staying in my bed all day long. Feeling a little bit better today though YAY!

So, head on over and check out the I Inspire Me blog again- there is some amazing creativity happenin' over there!
For my stationery inspired project, I actually used this notecard set I have to make a little mini book of some beach pictures. It was a super easy project and I really like how it turned out :)
















I hope you all have a wonderful day!
