Spooky Time

With the kiddos in school I have been able to get my creative juices a flowin'! I have been very inspired by the upcoming fall season. I love getting ready for Halloween. Next to Christmas decorating, it is my fav. With the focus now being school, fall carnivals and not Pool Parties, Fall is on the horizon and it will be so nice to have it here after all the "close to 100" temp days we've been suffering through =(
I have added a few little SpOoKy gOoDiEs to my Etsy Shop this week. Hope to share more soon!


And a BiG "your welcome hug" to Miss Yapping Cat Cindy! She was the recent winner of my Birthday Giveaway and she just recieved all her little goodies. Thank you for your super sweet comments!

Have a Fabulous Day!

and they're gone....................

Well, the boys are at school. The house is empty, quite, and a little less messier!

I took a few "First Day" shots of them. I thought I might cry going into it with my 4yr. old. Since I had with my oldest. Bald like a baby! Of course, I was 8 months pregnant at the time, so that could explain the extra burst of emotion!
I actually kept it together, I went through the motions of walking him to his new class, helping him pick out a cubbie for his oversized booksack, and giving him a big hug to wish him well.


Then he did it. The one thing I had known he'd do and I would dread.

He hugged me back and then tooked a step back from me, and said "Okay- bye momma. Go! You should leave now!"

So I did, and that was that- My precious little baby was gone and there in front of
me stood what he was now- a Big Boy!

REID & His Teacher!


By the time I found my car, I have to admit, I was crying!
Not much, just a couple of tears- but still~

Well, I have things to get to! I have some new SPOOKY things I will be adding to my Etsy shop today!

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a nice Tuesday!

BaCk - tO- sChOoL

OMGosh!~ I can't believe this coming week my boys are going back to school! FRIDAY! Our youngest is starting Kindergarten this year =( I really have mixed emotions about this. He is still only 4 . But in our part of the country Sept. 30th is the cut off and his B-day is Sept. 25th. Gosh that's cutting it close!! He is really quite bright, I think he will adjust fine- We just were really given no choice. If we hold him this fall from attending they can put him directly into 1st grade when we go to sign him up next fall. That really stinks!! So we have been spending alot of time this summer getting ready!! Summer has just gotten away from us, as I am sure it has everyone else. We still have a few fun things planned for them this week before the big return day- but to be honest, they really act like they are ready- especially our 11 yr. old. I don't know if it's just boredom, the new DC booksack, the cool new supplies or those shiney new shoes his feet are waiting to get into!! Prob. the latter!!


Anyways, in celebration of getting Back to School, I am having alittle SALE in my Etsy Shop. A few little School Albums to be going in this week,
Journals, Custom Memo/Composition Books and Custom Planners are all part of the sale!


Hope all have a nice week ahead!
