Celebrating the 4th

This year we went to my brother-in-laws to celebrate the 4th.  Everyone had a great time.

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

Sadly we didn't go see any fireworks as a family.  But that is ok, the kids were pooped out after a fun day of running around and swimming.  Jeff & I did end up watching some fireworks from our porch.  Seems that many people in our neighborhood like to set them off.  :)

Happy 4th!

Hope everyone has a Happy 4th of July.

In-case you want to make something fun today with the kids, here is the post where I show how to make my Smores on a Stick.  Still one of my most popular post 3yrs later.  Have fun!  :)

Patriotic

That's a lot of red, white, and blue!  :)

In light of all that is happened this week (the Boston marathon bombing on Monday, the lock down in Massachusetts today, & the explosion in West, TX yesterday), it is very fitting.

All of these shipped tonight. 

Shop now OPEN

My shop is now open until next Friday with these items.  :)

4th of JULY

Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th!

Lily is such a ham and Ian's face kills me!  That look he is giving his sister for putting her arm around him is priceless!

We went to a party at my brother-in-law's house.  I took this photo after we got home.  The kids went outside to watch our neighbor's setting off fireworks.

Happy Flag Day!

Only 25 more days left until our vacation!!

Happy Memorial Day!

Hope everyone has a safe and happy Memorial Day!

Wordful Wednesday - Trays

It has been a crazy busy around here.  The kids have had lots of things going on with school (concerts, practices, kindergarten stuff for next year, field trips, etc).  In between all of that my shop has been crazy busy, too.  I have been quickly filling up trays with orders.

Many late nights and many more to come.

Only 4 more weeks of school and 47 more days until our vacation!!  :)

Wordful Wednesday - Lily

A couple of my favorite shots of Lily from the 4th of July. 

I think I need to print up the first one to put on my dining room wall.

Wordless Wednesday - Lion

This photo was taken on the night of July 4th. I had forgotten about it until I was cleaning up my photos this week. I was amazed that the cloud looked like a lion's head with it's mouth open.

Take Me Back Tuesday

July 2006

In the summer of 2006, I was pregnant with Lily and it was the first summer I babysat this sassy girl.

The summer of 2006 was all about crafts!

This 4th of July crown we made turned out adorable!!

I found the idea in Family Fun Magazine.

You can participate and/or check out other Take Me Back Tuesday posts at A Giveaway Addicted Mommy.
