Cupboard Fun

I have a vague memory of playing in the cupboards when I was little. That memory mainly of some pictures from LONG AGO. When Sweet Pea and Cutie Pie resurrected the idea, I took tons of pictures.

Some New Crafting Tools

I was super excited to *** finally*** able to use some of my new Christmas craft supplies. This card from my favorite crafting guru was a springboard for the cards. Thanks KWERNER!!!

Isn't the Absolutely die the best!?!?!

Love this Embroidered Bouquet set and polka dots

Curious George

Cutie Pie LOVES Curious George. That's how we get her to eat and calm her down when she's teething. She been breaking two new molars, so I introduced her to watching George in the movie room. She was so excited to sit in daddy's big chair with a pillow and blankie.

I may get the inattentive mom award, but this was the only time she was content and not crying. Poor little one, new teeth are so hard!!!

Howloween at the Zoo

Rachel came for a visit to help out with my mom. Her visit coincided with our zoo's "Howloween". Sweet Pea dressed up and we went on a scavenger hunt. It was a perfect morning full of fun and animals.

The zoo had pumpkins for the animals to smash and enjoy

Halloween Decor

For the past couple of years, I had a ton of bats I cut out of paper. Last year, they didn't want to stick to the new walls. So when October rolled around, I decided to pull out my Silhouette Cameo and cut out some bats and other creepy visitors. :) I also made a wreath, which provided to the perfect way to let my bats fly away.

Spooky kitty

I love my bats!!
