Hoppy Easter!

This is a very clear picture...sorry!
Today we took the boys to the BNSF Easter Egg Hunt.
We weren't sure where to start so we headed inside for the line, there had to be a reason for a line we thought. And we were right, it was for pictures. Cayden was VERY excited when he saw them and promised to have his picture taken with them but when it was our turn he wanted nothing to do with either one of the Easter Bunnies. U can't tell since the picture will not download clearly, but he does not look the least bit interested, or happy. And Colton never once stopped looking at them. The guy was so kind and took 4 pictures but none of them are really great.
They had a petting 'farm' and of course Cayden went nuts for that. I bet he spent at least 30 minutes chasing the bunnies & roosters and playing with the goats. I finally convinced him to leave so that he could hunt Easter eggs. They threw candy in the air all around, counted down, and the kids went running. We missed his age group, we were taking pictures. So I grabbed a handful of candy and put it in front of him & let him pick it up 1 at a time. The problem-he wants to eat each piece as he picks it up-ha!
He was not happy that we were leaving, he wanted to pet the animals again! So I reminded him of his new sandbox in HIS back yard and off we went.

Custom Cross




This is the beautiful cross that I made in class last night. I want to make more. It is made of 3 different wood crosses, each one painted. The bottom & top one is covered with paper and the middle cross has embossed metal that has been sanded. The brad in the middle is made with the new chatterbox brad maker. I still have to sand around the edges of the largest cross to distress it. but I think that it turned out ok. Everyone's crosses turned out gorgeous! Thanks to Creat8Joy for such wonderful classes.

MOM, Do these boots fit?




This kid cracks me up! He is soooo funny and I think he knows it. When I returned to the room he was cloppin around in daddys boots, atleast he was trying to walk. He was laughing at himself and I couldn't help but crack up. What a cutie!

Brotherly Love




What cute boys I have! Love my chunky monkey & 'uh,uh' boy!!!

I don't wanna grow up!!!!


When I returned from putting away some laundry this morning this is what I found. Cayden must miss his swing, it's not fair that Bubba gets to swing all the time and he never gets too anymore! He had the cheesiest smile on his face. I couldn't get onto him, but instead I RAN to get the camera and of course he was willing to CHEEZ for the camera! He didn't want to get out but I explained that he was a big boy now and the swing was for Bubba to use now. Colton was on the floor on tummy time and after I explained that the swing was for brother, Cayden motioned (as he does) that he wanted me to put Bubba in his swing. Cayden may not be talking but he sure is good at Charades-HA!

Pet Peeves

Not even sure if that is a word or even how to spell it. BUT.....One of my BIGGEST pet peeves is when people don't do what they say they are going to do. What ever it maybe, a phone call, a visit, a whatever!!! If u don't plan on it for sure then make that known or just don't say it at all! I just don't get it! Why do people do that? I am sooo tired of feeling hurt or forgotten about. I don't know why I let it get to me either so that is also one of my pet peeves about myself. Not saying that I am anywhere close to perfect but....
OK, I think I am done. I just had to get that off my chest. Thanks for letting me vent.

I feel the need.......


.....the need to decorate!!


While our company was in town, we made a stop at Hobby Lobby. I bought the 3 hooks and then returned today by the metal Laundry hook/sign. I just couldn't stop thinking about it so I HAD to go get it! I hate it when that happens-ha!

Can I just say that Hobby Lobby is the best place on earth, not only can u find scrappin' supplies but they have the coolest decor! If anyone ever has trouble thinking of what to get me, GC from HL would ROCK!!! Just a thought.

LOVE HOBBY LOBBY!!!
