I’ve been experimenting with the timer on my camera. I love this shot of me and Bo. I wish he’d get his fingers out of his mouth. And I wish we could burn that blanket (you would too if you could smell it). But this is the last year he will be home with me […]
When I was a new mom and Slone was not even a year old yet, my friend Amy invited me to a MOPS meeting. I think she asked me 3 or 4 times before I went. I am so glad I did. Those women kept me sane, knowing that they were going through some of […]
Yes, I call my husband Mattie. Yes, he hates it. Yes, I don’t care…he calls me Sunshine. Glad we got that out of the way. I went out to camp that night to be a counselor for the weekend retreat in May of 2000. I saw Matt but didn’t know who he was, but I […]
Well, it’s probably time for a little change up in how I sell my goods. Etsy is fine and dandy and it works extremely well if you are going to spend a lot of social time there. I did that for awhile, but for now, I just don’t have the time to be part of […]
Well, this is the first time I have ever tried a block this detailed. Love the end result. Was not so crazy about putting it all together. It was a pretty tedious block. I’m pretty sure I would never make it through a quilt of these. So, that being said, it’s a terrific block for […]
Senior year. How could I forget? Well, I kind of want to forget. I was angry that year. Didn’t have a lot of fun. My husband, Matt, always says he would love to go back to high school. NO WAY! I couldn’t wait to get out of there. Our class had dwindled down to 5 […]
Not really a fan of stencils. When I think of them, I think of the little hearts and the country blue ribbons that everyone used to paint on the bulkheads in their kitchens. You know what I’m talking about. But this bag is just way too cool. I can’t take credit for it though. Here’s […]
Nine years, people, nine years. Nine years ago at this time (6pm) I married Mattie. I can remember talking to Lyn the week before I married him and she asked me to name off some of the things I didn’t like about him. The only thing I could think of is that he bit his […]
Do you realize that I have to scan all pictures from my childhood. It must be like my mom having only black and white of hers. It’s pretty funny looking back on these. I can remember thinking I was pretty hot stuff in this outfit. You can’t see it though. It was a red turtleneck […]
We went to the rodeo on Saturday. The boys were extremely excited! That is, until about the last round of bull riding. I don’t know what they were complaining about, they each sat on our laps to see and those bleachers were hard! The favorite of the night was the bulls though. Even though we […]
