crafting








Here's a couple of things I finished this past week. I was trying to figure out something fun to do with the empty formula cans and this is what I came up with. The little one is a free sample of formula shortly after she was born. I like it with all the crayons!


Mom and I have been scrapbooking once a week. We've been trying to conquer the Disney trip we took last spring! It's coming along. This is just one I made of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Gotta love the cricut!


The yellow bookshelf was from Shannon. It was white before. So I painted it yellow (the color is actually called "uplifting") I like it. Steven added Bead board behind it. It turned out pretty neat!

Marine World




My family took me to Marine World for my birthday this year. We had a ton of fun! The kids were super excited to see all the shows and the animals. Rebekah was tall enough to go on a lot of the rides. Isaiah was too terrified to even try the simple ones. He did warm up to it though (at 8:00 at night - the park closes at 9:00). But it was neat. We got to pet a Sting Ray and Ride an elephant! Jacko the Walrus was mine and Isaiah's favorite. He was just so fun. He would follow Isaiah. We got some neat pictures. He's the walrus from the film "50 first dates". Pretty neat to meet a "celebrity". :) The butterfly exhibit was really cool. Butterflies were just swarming every where. The kids loved meeting Bugs Bunny and Batman. It really was such a fun day. We were pretty pooped by the end!

Sizzlin' summer paper chase


So we just finished the scrapbook shop hop. It was Rebekah's first year and boy was she excited! We had a great time. It was a lot of fun getting to visit and see all the different stores and things they had to offer. We're overloaded with ideas! Now we just need the time to do them before we forget!
