waiting for fall.

Posted on July 27, 2007

today:

hit up the Hobby Lobby fall decor sale with mom, abbie and the girls… love that it’s july and they have the autumn things on sale to make way for christmas (which is already out). buying things in orange, yellow and green made me crave fall. can’t wait to take my girls to the pumpkin patch, carve pumpkins, take millions of photos with pumpkins, etc. i can’t wait for wghs football, taking the girls to daddy’s soccer games, raking leaves to jump in, cool nights and warm days, sweatshirts, etc. can you tell the heat and humidity is getting to me?

took aunt abbie and uncle chris to tot time at the pool but it was sort of a failure… big slide closed, clouds and COLD water. we’re going tomorrow so i hope it will be better!

CHRIS IS FINISHED WITH SCHOOL! he had his last class today and aside from some homework due next week he’s done! i am beyond proud of him for completing this horrible schedule. now it’s straight into wesbter to work on curriculum for this year and into soccer which starts in a week! our life never slows down.

parker is eating REAL food. last night she ate mac n cheese and green beans with bailey. most went on the floor i think, but she swallowed some hopefully. here ya go:

I am inspired by a million and one things on a daily basis, and a lot of what inspires me I find on the internet, so I thought I would share…

1. just found this 15 year old scrapper and am AMAZED!

2. As soon as I have extra money I am buying these…love the idea!

3. This artist is not a scrapbooker which is why I love her stuff… it makes me think outside the box.

4. When I have extra time I am starting a whole mini album with THIS as the inspiration.

5. Love her… what I used to imagine Abbie would turn out like!

6. BAILEY!

So last night I didn’t have my camera but I had my parents point-and-shoot digital. I was taking photos b/c Bailey was being cute (she took her chair under the easel after bathtime and was reading books!)

and funny when she begged for the camera.

She always wants to hold mine, but it’s too big and heavy for her. Because my parents is small and light, I gave her a chance. I showed her where the button was and how she could look at the back to see what was in front of her. Anyway, I will admit I edited the photos (meaning I may have cropped a little, adjusted the light or turned it b/w), but she still got amazing shots and I have to share them! She will be famous one day! :)

Wasn’t that amazing? I mean seriously. So proud.

Flipped our mattress today and changed all the linens, can’t wait to go to bed! Off to finish chores so that bed can happen soon. Until later…
