Angry Birds

I have been busy lately creating all sorts of new items the last couple weeks. 

Angry birds and Evil Pigs made their way onto my clay table...

Here are a couple of sneak peeks of them...

The blue bird was my son's request.

They are for ornaments...

Which Angry Bird is your favorite?  Or do you like a specific Evil Pig?

I have a confession to make.  I have only played angry birds a couple of times.  I know the horror!  I do not own a smart phone, i-pad, or i-pod touch.  I played it at the Apple Store in the mall last spring.  My kids have played the game before with my sister's i-pod touch.


Linking to these parties, here.

Miss Ladybug

One day last month while playing outside, we stumbled upon a ladybug. 

It had a wing that would not go back in. 

Lily and the ladybug became fast friends.  For almost an hour Lily giggled watching her new friend crawl around her hands.

It was fun to watch Lily's amazement while the ladybug traveled over her hands.

She kept walking around the yard talking to her new friend.

It was sad when we had to say good bye.  We put our new friend in our zinnias and went in to have dinner.

Right after dinner Lily ran outside to see if her friend was still there.  Sadly she wasn't.  I had to tell Lils that her friend had to go home to visit her family. 

Wordful Wednesday - Fast Forward

When we drove to Florida a couple months ago, we stopped about 1/2 way down in Statesville, SC and stayed at the Red Roof.  We stopped at around 10:30pm.

Since my kids are early risers we never need to set an alarm.  I woke up at 6:30 and started getting ready.  But strangely enough everyone else was still asleep.  Anyway I kept getting ready and woke Jeff up.  Then we woke up Ian and lastly Lily.  Once everyone was ready we gathered our belongings and opened up the door.  Much to all our surprise it was still DARK outside.  Jeff looked at me and said "Don't tell me it's 4am!?!"  HUH?  The clock by the bed said 7:30am...I had made sure it was the correct time when we checked in.  That is when I pulled my watch out of my purse (I had left my phone in the car)....it was 3:45AM.  I couldn't stop laughing.  Needless to say we got to Disney early, but TIRED!

Lily just keep staring into space....even when her brother started to bother her...

It was flipping hilarious.

Not Feeling Like Fall

{you can find Pumpkin Mickey here}

If you walk outside today in WNY it doesn't feel much like fall, it feels more like summer.  It is hard to get into the fall mood.  We went apple picking this past weekend and we went to look for 'fall' items for Lils to take to school.  We did find a bunch of red & yellow leaves.  What is the weather like in your neck of the woods today?
