Update and an Announcement!!

First the update, so far no strike, but we are going on a 20 day strike standby which is the pits and now dear husband is on a work force all this coming weekend. We are okay and we will get thru this. At least, he's still working.....that is my only plus.


ANNOUNCEMENT!!! ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

So, I opened the Etsy Store!!! YAYAYAYAYAYYAYAYAY!!! I just uploaded a few things. So you might want to go check it out. I will be uploading new things everyweek(I am crossing my fingers!). I will upload here also. I do make custom orders!! Thanks again.

Scared...

So, I am scared.....We will know this coming weekend if Donavan goes on strike. I am just alittle off of what might happen. I canceled my craft fair space because we were told we may strike more than two weeks. I will just try to sell my stuff on etsy or ebay for whatever I can get.

So I am back...(how many times do I plan on saying that)

I have decided to do something different this year but it's taken me a few months to decide this because we are already in March. So much has changed since last blogged....so I will update you all.(like some one reads this besides me!!)...so we went back to homeschooling, but it's not regular homeschooling, it's all online which works great for my boys so far plus it's free. We are homeschooling thru CAVA. So far, it's pretty easy for both my boys. G is almost done with all of his lessons which range from algebra to art plus everything in between. He will start doing his 7th grade work before June. And Dylan, has finished 3 of his subjects and all he has is LA and Math. He will be doing 3rd grade work come April. It's been pretty exciting....And, last Deegan has been doing great, she can write almost all her letters and she repeats everything she hears which is bad of course!!

So, I am guessing you noticed I have changed a few things here on my blog. Well, getting on to what I have decided for this year.....I have decided to go ahead and try my hand at having some type of scrapbooking business. I don't want to own a online store, maybe esty, or just local craft fairs. I have a craft fair coming up in April that I want to try. It's a one day event for just a few hours. When I seen it advertised, I thought why not. I have lots of scrapbook stuff just lying around. I have a few things that I have done so far nothing I am ready to post yet. So, that's it for now. My mommy is on her way to pick up my monkeys, so husband and I can go see The Watchmen. I will let you all know how it goes......

New stuff.....bad blogger...

Here's my latest stuff. I haven't really been scrapbooking, but altering. I just don't

"feel" like scrapping anymore. No, I am not ready to give my stuffs away, but I feel like making layouts isn't for me anymore. Maybe it's just my midlife crisis going on, but here's the latest...

First one, my dd, Deegan. It's the packaging from the Target $1 spot fake prima flowers I got awhile back. I think I loved the box more the actual flowers. I know that is bad.

The second is, of course like you all didn't already know her name, Deegan(again!!). It's an acrylic clipboard I picked up at walmart months ago. It's probably been thru the ringer a few times with the kids using it.

So it's been along time....a REALLY long time...

Okay, so it has been along time. Moving on....right? That's what it's all about. So here's some new stuff I have worked on in the last few weeks. Okay, it's the only stuff I have pics of. I will have to add more as I go.

The top pic(2 piece) is made out of some thin chipboard I bought at Home Depot. The pic next to it is my very first creation using acrylic plexiglass. I keep using that same picture only cause I don't have very many pics with all 3 kids. I know bad mommy! So the next 2 pics are my crafty stuff I have been working on. So tell me what you all think? HONESTLY. They could be used for gift bags for small gifts. They were super easy to make. All the polka dot material is all vintage. the next LO is of my son Dylan. It was for a sketch LO contest over at Sherri's Scrapbook Supply. I don't think I won, but it was cool anyway. It was my first LO in weeks. PLUS I used my old stash. I haven't really bought anything new for awhile. I know...what kind of scrapper am I really? So leave me some comments I would really love to know what you think?

Hey it's like been forever.....

since I lasted blogged. I am sooooo sorry! I have been so stinkin busy over at Sherri's Scrapbook Supply. Ladies, don't be shy, please come by and do say hi. I miss all of you so very much. I do. I do. Right now, we have some challenges going on for 4 weeks and whoever wins gets a 3-month Guest Creative Team Member position. Ladies, it's not too late you all can still join in. We are on our 3 week sketch challenge which will end tomorrow. But there is still time!! We have some amazing talent going on over there. The only hard part for me is having to vote. I hate having to vote for some thing like that. They are all great scrappers. Anyway, the family is great. The boys were alittle sick yesterday, but they are a-ok now. We have an all day bbq tomorrow. That may be okay minus the all day quad riding the boys will be doing. It's just scary, but the track is way kid friendly. So, I don't feel as bad. I will have to post pics. It was so freaking hot today. Shhhhh......don't tell my dh that I said that. I try my hardest not to complain about the heat because he works in the heat. So when I complain in front of him I feel really bad. Hey, I know I didn't chose his career, he did, but then who would buy my scrap crap?

So, my daughter, Deegan, just walked in and asked if I wanted a pickle, you want a drink, a hot dog? Before bed, we usually give her a snack because she doesn't always eat her dinner. She'll be 3 in November. I swear she pronounces her words so clearly. It is a big difference from Dylan(5yo) with a speech impledment to her with a big vocab. She has the cutest little pixie voice to go with her pixie face.

BTW, these are my 3 kids, Gabe, Dylan, and Deegan. This picture was taken April 2, 2007. We went to the Memorial Service for the Death of Jesus Christ. It was a nice service. We go every year.

-K- Night ladies. XOXO

Our LA/Disneyland Trip!!!!

I know I haven't blogged in awhile. I have been pretty busy lately with the new Creative Team I'm on. It's been alot of fun!! These are pictures of our LA/Disneyland. That is my oldest son fighting Darth Maul. It's a show Disneyland does in TomorrowLand. He thought he was sooo cool! That is also him in front of the castle. That's all of us in front of the "A" at Disney Calfornia.

This is my dh with our three kids and our brother in law, Jeff, and our nephew, Jayden, from Colorado. That's all three boys, Gabe, Dylan, and Jayden with Minnie Mouse. The kids had a great time. We got to see family we hadn't seen in awhile. It was alot fo fun. We got to go to IKEA. That is was the best part. We ate dinner and spent way too much $$$. All in all, it was a great 3 day vacation, but we won't be going back to Disneyland for awhile.

I had posted about a drawing before I left. And the winner is......AMYZ!! Congrats Amy. I have box of scrap stuff that I have collected for you and you disney prize. I will send that out to you ASAP.
