R&R --- re-entry & recuperating!

HELLO! HELLO! HELLO!
So my luck to have a wonderful vacay and end it w/ a nasty cold.

BOO HOO!

I am getting back into the swing of reality. Back to balancing 100 things at once. But a bit slower than I'd anticipated. Summer colds STINK!

Here are a few pictures we had taken in the beginning of the week for Ben's 1 year photos. BEFORE the nasty cold thank goodness. These pictures melt my heart.


Thank you Katie Thurmes of TreeSwing for your talents, your sweet personality & your amazing eye!

A friend sent me this story. It was too cute not to share!

And while I get my photos uploaded - you should check out this place!
It's perfect for all your creative crafting. They're having a SALE!

They have gorgeous printed paper. I can't get enuf!

Progress

First off - we have made it thru half of May. PHEW. We've had Mothers day, an Anniversary (see pic below of my treat from Jeff. Charlie wanted to cover up the flowers so that they weren't cold.) and a Birthday. (Jeff's was yesterday...) And a sleepover in Boulder with Moxie.


Thats only the 1st half of May.

Tomorrow is Charlie's 3rd birthday!!! We are having the family over and we're gonna have pizza & cake, both requests from the birthday boys.

We have managed to make a little progress. SEE!?!?! Two cabinets are actually PAINTED WHITE!
I won't let myself count how many more we have to go. There are 5 doors in the basement that only need 1 more coat - so that might actually happen in the next day or so. We could have 7 cabinets completed by the end of May. That makes me so happy.

I'm not Martha Stewart...but....

I thought these pics were fun. A little inspiration peek for the bachy wknd in San Diego. In my mind I have all the time in the world to whip up cute stuff like this. In reality...I just look at pretty pictures of this stuff and pretend I got it all done. I dream of having an assistant. And an assistant for my assistant. There's a lot to do.

But a girl can still dream. Aren't these boxes so cute? I wish when I tied bows they looked this nice.


And I just want to eat like this all the time. I don't remember where I got this picture. I'm sorry. 


It's prolly a good thing that I don't live near a Dunkin Donuts. I *heart* munchkins.

I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend. Hooray it's here again!

Hold, please...

My goodness is it B U S Y!!!!! If you saw me right now you'd say "bless her heart!" You know how they say that in the south cuz you just are a sweet mess??? Well, that is me this week.

I had the BEST mothers day. And then I had the next day off of work. I wish I could say it was filled w/ mani/pedis & massages & a long lunch with wine. It was actually filled with Charlie's hair cut, Ben's 9 mo appointment (he weighed in @ 17lbs 5.5 oz), a quick pop into the new Nordstroms rack, leftovers, wedding invite comp made & delivered, a run around Wash Park, grocery store & the wine store. PHEW!

THEN...real work has decided to not give me any free time to breathe.

So...to keep you busy...I need to share this blog.  This is just plain fun.

You can read about Tory Burch. I had no idea.

And you can read about our fav Sandy Bullock. FUN!

Thats all I had time for - so if you come across a good one, SHARE IT for pete's sake!

More to come. Just as soon as I can find my brain. I must have left it somewhere....

Made it another week

I have been crazy busy. PHEW! And sadly I have nothing to show for it. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to share with you some sneak peeks of the wedding invites that I've been working on. But you know that whole "gotta keep it a surprise" bride thing. Can't be doing that. So you probably think I've just been lazy and posting pics of my boys instead. I SWEAR I'VE BEEN CREATING!!!!!!!!!!

I just finished some matchy-matchy thank you cards to go with this cute shower invite I did for Jennie. Thanks, Jennie!!!

Like every Friday - I am making my to do list. But this time I'm making it my MUST-DO list. Life is short people. Get this S**T of my list so I can play.

The back splash is being grouted today. So I'll put up photos of the finised product this wknd. (I think I forgot to put that on my to do list)

I'm totally going to do this: Tracy Anderson Method
Hello!?! I'm sure I'll look like this by Memorial Day weekend. If Gwyn & Madge can do it - I'm sure I can, too.


Right after I do that I'm going to meet my friend Susie here: Trompeau Bakery We need to catch up. Chocolate Almond Croissants totally help.

I'm looking forward to spending time w/ my fellas on Mother's Day. It's supposed to be beautiful.
We're going to an early dinner at Osteria Marco. I can't wait to have a wonderful glass of red wine and eat their meatball sliders with Charlie.

I hope you all have a great weekend, too!

Warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The camera is READY! I just have to get my keister over to Mike's Camera and pick it up. Which you think would be super simple & easy to do. Lord!

This blog is going to get a boost for sure. You might actually get to see some things I've been working on. That would be a novel concept.

I am up early this morning to get the early morning creative juices. Usually Charlie is up by now, so my time is limited. (he is the only child i know that likes to get up at 5:30am...SERIOUSLY!)  I finished some work and then saw these. These file into my "if I had a million dollars" category. Which we all could.... did you see how much the lottery is today????

GO BUY A TICKET!!!!

Then if you win, I'll take these in a 5.5 or 6 thank you very much. They will be perfff for my Sa-Sa's bachy weekend.

TIME TO JUST DO IT

Well....I have been toying w/ the idea of creating my own blog. And last night the thought literally kept me up at night. That and the Olympics and my little 6 mos old boy Benson who has a little cough/cold and can't fall asleep because he can't suck on his thumb and breathe at the same time.

I was lying in bed, watching the freestyle skiiers (wow) and a million ideas, thoughts, lists, wishes were flying thru my head. I also realized that I had one more baby burp cloth to sew in the basement for a friend so I hopped out of bed and ran downstairs to finish it. Feels good to complete that as the ingredients with which to make these fun little burp cloths have been sitting in a bag for months. Why do I do that?

When I crawled back into bed my mind was still racing with other projects, long time dreams and annoying to-do's. I wished I had had a piece of paper next to my bed to write them all down. Right then I vowed that I would start up this blog and fill it will all the goings on in my life. My work, my stationery company, my family, my boys, my wish to be a good cook & find the best/easiest recipes, my wish to be this crafty crafterson, my home (renovations!).... shall I go on? I get so inspired when I read other folks blogs who seem to be diving into all these fun situations. Time to get busy. Life is too short.

PS - here is a pic of my middle of the night project. Will get better at having a nicer background setting - but we're remodeling our kitchen ourselves and that's a whole 'nother blog entry! ;)

Okay - this is funny. I haven't blogged since Charlie was born.
As you can see from this picture - we now have BENSON and he's wearing the outfit Charlie did when he was 6 mos old!!! YIKES!
