Vinyl Frames

I'm just getting in to using vinyl with my Cricut machine and I'm in love!!! Chris thinks I'm obsessed though. haha I'm thinking about starting a blog with my crafts on them. What do you think? Also, I'm willing to make more of these if anyone wants one... *hint hint*

Here's a frame that I made for a wedding we went to on July 16th.

This is a frame that I made for my friend, Amanda's, daughter Adrienne for her 1st birthday. We gave it to her at her birthday on July 17th.

These were super easy to make and I had a lot of fun! Guess what I'm making for our walls now... ;)

Young Life Reunion!!

W had a reunion of all the original Young Life leaders - which in my opinion were the BEST leaders!

Playing in Uncle Jake's work boots.

Mr. Dumptruck

BBQ

A pretty good idea what's been going on with Carver lately -- teething!!

Just testing out the camera for the group shot but it turned out pretty good :)

Pretty much all of us! (click photo to see bigger)

It was great to see everyone and all of their kids!!! We had a lot of fun and can't wait for the next one. :)

Happy Birthday America!!!

We spent the 4th of July weekend in Ellensburg with mom and we went to a Yakima Bears game on the 4th. It was really hot but there was a breeze so it was a perfect day. Our original plan was to watch the game and then watch the fireworks they do afterwards. The game started at 5:30pm and got over around 8pm but the fireworks weren't scheduled to start until 10pm so we came home and watched fireworks from the deck.

Peek-a-boo Nana!

Watching the game!

Just chilling!

Such a beautiful night

Look at those pairs of eyes!

12 Month Pictures

I finally took the time to sit down and upload pictures. Yea!! haha

This was after we went to Ikea (pretty sure I mentioned this) and got this hammer toy and his potty. The toy was only $7.00!!! Pretty soon he'll be helping daddy hammer things in. House maybe??? (wishful thinking)




Watching daddy on the deck. I told him not to go outside and he listened! haha

Playing with his water table. He got a little wet.

In other news...

... We now officially own a dumptruck! We're in the middle of a big expansion with the business and we were in need of another vehicle and also a dumptruck so we combined the two. If I have this right, its a Ford F550 chassis with a dump on the back. Chris is pretty excited. :)

Night Night Mama

I was laying down trying to get Carver to go to sleep yesterday and he took his blanket and laid it over me and started patting my bottom like I do with him when he's trying to go to sleep. haha It's like he was saying, "night night mama"

Blog Design Giveaway!

I've been thinking about getting my blog professionally designed and LOVE April Showers Blog Design and... they're having a giveaway! All you have to do is go to their blog (click link) and leave a comment with a link to your blog where you've posted about her giveaway (like I'm doing here). Easy peasy!

We've got #1!!!

We were up at Ikea a couple weekends ago and we picked up a big boy potty for Carver. He's been interested in the idea and it was only $3.99. We figured we'd sit him on there whenever we were in the bathroom and just get him used to the idea. We're not expecting much but since he's interested...

... well last night, Chris was getting him ready for his bath and set him on his potty while Chris was getting the water ready. CARVER WENT PEE IN THE POTTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not one of those mom's that takes pictures of pee (**kinda grosses me out and i don't think anyone would want to see my son's pee haha**) but thought all you (read: no one... i'm beginning to think no one reads this) should know. Now you're day is complete! :)
