~ 2 Projects (Frame & Layout) + My BIG Little Man~

 Good morning my friends, 

I have a dual purpose post today. 

#1 projects of course but #2 is my BIG little man.

13/14 years ago I cam into my husband's life and became mommy to

a very stubborn boy who was as cute as a button. After taking these pictures 

last night I see he is growing up! LOL

But first I wanted to share this new Globecraft Memories Bubble Frame

project I created using the Piccolo Enamel Powders and the Bubble Frame. 

If you want to see the step by step blow for this project please head

to the Globecraft Memories Blog and check it out.

Now this is not my usual company to work for but I LOVE them!

So be sure to like them on Facebook too!

Ok on to the photos I shot last night...

This is Bradley's tournament game, can't believe how big he has gotten

from those days when he was learning to tie his shoes and not throw a fit LOL

He didn't get to play in elementary school and middle school since

we had moved but moving here was the BEST thing we ever did, I have never

seen this kid happier and healthier! :) 

He loves his baseball, glad he had no choice but to let me take pictures LOL

I have one more project to share- a digital layout

I made of my little helper Austyn who came to visit and craft

last week. Love that kid! :)

All good stuff...now back to the ball field tonight...last week of tournaments 

until the 13th of July...oh the life of a ball mom.

Happy Tuesday my friends~

~No Crafts, Just Photos & Family Fun Today!~

Whew, good morning my friends, what a weekend!!

First of all Happy Father's Day to any real dads out there.

Especially to my hubby, I thought I would share what the boys got

dad for Father's Day...this Pup Seal knife. And he loves it! :) 

We also spent Father's Day at the lake with the boys, then

when we got home I make White Chicken Chili and it was a good day. 

Here are the boys swimming...well 2 of them, the other one just wanted to EAT.

And the first part of our weekend began with THIS!!!!!!!!!! :)

Our sweet Crushers winning 1st PLACE GOLD in baseball!

It was an amazing moment and very fun. Cannot wait for fall ball but

thank heaven's this part is over LOL We still have tournaments for my

16 yr old this week, so it will be busy but 2 down and one to go!

Thought I would share my son's photo LOL

While everyone else was sitting holding the trophy, not my kid!

He was doing some odd stealth ninja move LOL

He was PUMPED! :) He is not the best player on the

team and bless his heart we know it but he has the most heart for sure. 

He skips off and on the field and always tries. 

Gotta love this kid. 

Here is the silly pose with the trophy. LOVES IT!

 And how could I NOT share our coaches first pose? LOL

Last year he gave me a special picture too. I love this guy, he 

is a man all the way and it's not a bad thing. 

So this is why my hands are clean and no crafts have happened

this weekend. I officially took 4 days off which is REALLY rare, ok

let's be honest I only took 2 LOL but it was necessary. 

Just wanted to give a quick reminder about my latest class.

It is ONLY 20.00! Sign ups are this week!

Hurry because the class begins the 28th.

That's it for me today, I promise a project will magically

appear tomorrow!! :) Happy Monday!!!!

~Repurposing Basket Onto A Layout!~

Good morning my friends!!

Before I start I have to force you to see my boys in uniform LOL

Here is Gage posing on the field. He was such a funny man.

He was super excited about the game, we lost but it was fun!

I love being around the families and our amazing coaches Kevin & April.

Here is Justice, much more serious because he is the pitcher.

He did really well considering he had an injury the first pitch.

His hand is still black. We lost that game BUT it's all about having fun

no one is getting a million dollars here, so we just have fun! :)

What a wonderful weekend, spent with baseball, nachos, and friends.

I also wanted to share this in case you missed it.

The other day I shared a full tutorial on the Samantha Walker

Blog on how to re-purpose your paper Easter baskets onto a layout

You can find it right here

And it will look like this! Pretty fun right?

Please go say hi. And remember it was me (PINKY) who posted it. LOL

Very fun...this year is going to rock!

~First Family Garden & Family Updates~

Good morning my crafty friends!

I am not going to lie, its been a tough week around here.

Last night was just what the Dr. ordered!

The boys had a game and they won BIG time and Gage earned the game ball!

It picked my spirits up tremendously. I was so down. Then to top it off a friend

showed up to the game! Last game was my close friend Adrienne, and this game

was my gal pal Ziggy! :) Thanks to my friends I feel like my boys have some

family in TN and it's great!

OK on to crafting right?

Oh and below are baseball pictures...LOL sorry you know I gotta do it!

This layout I made is 100% the new Tally Scrapper kit for MAY!

I love LOVE LOVE these paper and the flowers were perfect for my

"First Family Garden" layout.

Remember that 8X8 book I am making?

This will go in there.

OHHH and aren't those Tim Holtz hanger clips the best thing EVAH??

They are in the kit too! *swoom*

Ok on to the real stuff LOL

Gage getting the game ball last night.

He was struggling hitting the ball in the last couple games, but

this game he hit every single time!! WOOHOO!

You can see he was very excited and it was unexpected! :)

I was so proud of Justice too, he was tickled for Gage!!!! :)

Ok I am off to get ready for tomorrow, apparently I am making cupcakes

for school and did not find out until today!

Happy Hump DAY!!!!
