Fun Web-sites!!























I am always impressed by the new web-sites I find offering creativity and inspiration! I can be creative in the the sewing department, but am not however when it comes to Paper!! But, I have found some fancy women who are!! Garnish is a new site I have found offering cool and unique paper wears to spruce up any party, home or gift ideas! They have a blog also that's loaded with inspirations for any occasion, small or big!! Visit them at http://www.thinkgarnishblog.com/. There is another savvy site called How Does She that posts women's ideas on life, home dec., food and fun creativity from all over! I have found some really adorable printables to use for a few different projects of my own!! One more place to check out is One Charming Party! So, so cute! I got most my ideas for Janie Belle's 3rd birthday party here. (which I will be posting soon!) Until then, these are pictures of my Teacher gifts a gave at my kids pre-school last week! They are very simple but so adorable! The containers came from Garnish and the the thank you printable came from How Does She! I used my own pink and yellow papers I already had, along with the ribbon! I nice way to spruce up a gift card for anyone!

Long time, no "Say"...













I believe this is called "Walloring!"





...It's been a while! Since finishing up Spring sewing, I have been tending to my little sheep and very much enjoying their time!!! We are all well, Janie Belle will be 3 on Saturday...Can not believe it! She is too cute! Talks a lot, very nosey and concerned about what's going on...Loves to play babies, house and all things domestic!! What do ya' know...Braxton has been spending a lot of time with Daddy! Isaac has planted 100 acres of cotton and is getting ready to start a new business the first of June!! Braxton has been right there with him the whole way...He doesn't miss a beat. He has planted his own crop of corn, tomatoes and wheat! He loves to "cultivate" and he prays for rain!! He thinks he's grown...I took these pix on April 28, the day after the tornado's! After seeing all the devastation on TV, I looked outside to see my two driving trucks through a mud puddle. My first reaction was to run out side and say, "Get out of the mud!!!!" But instead, I grabbed the camera and went to town...I was so thankful that day, to have a safe home and see huge smiles and laughter amongst my children!! (I did get the clothes clean and they still wear them as "farm attire.")
