Happy Halloween!!



Thanks Granny!


My Granny helped pay for a fence at Mom and Dad's new house. When asked, she said she did it so Baylee wouldn't have to be on a leash, tied to a stick in the yard, and could run and play. So Baylee made Granny this little thank you card. Used Doodlecharms for the puppy, Opposites Attrack for the ALPO letters, and made the bones in DS. The inside sentiment says:

In the yard I like to run and play,
But without a fence I run away.
Some big green money you did pay,
So a beagle's thanks I must say.
Now I have a fence, hip, hip, hooray!
I'll be thankful to you every day.

Happy Birthday Olivia!


Our little Olivia is not so little any more. She's a big 6 year old now, going to school even...I can hardly belive it. This is the card I made for her birthday. It was picked for the October 20 edition of the Cricut Chirp.
Used DS to make the circle shape card. Doodlecharms for the circles, Alphalicious for the number 6. The soccer ball is a Stickopotamus sticker.

Painting Project

After 5 years in my house, I finally committed to a color for the living room...well, make that three colors!!



So here it is...a sneak peek at my new living room walls. Thanks a ton to Kim...my wiry little friend who so bravely climbed atop my 8' ladder and plant ledges!! Thanks to Jody and Billie for lending a hand as well!!


Whew...what a weekend. With a little touch-up here and there, and a lot of clean-up, my house should be back together, and feeling much warmer and cozier with the added color!

Happy Fall Y'all!


Here he is...Farmer Jay haulin' up his load of pumpkins. I think it was 23 in all this season. Mom, Billie and I each took home our favorite pick! This was at the end of a great weekend over in Seattle, seeing Phantom of the Opera at the Paramount, Shopping at Ikea, and not to mention great hospitality at the JK Ranch. Thanks Jay and Kathy!!

Thinking of You
