Confessions of a Blogstalker-aholic!

I needed a cute end of the teacher appreciation gift and during my blogstalking hour (or more) I saw a super cute idea and wanted to duplicate it. I loved how it turned out! It was easy to make and inexpensive, which is nice when your needing something for 3 teachers!

Thanks to all the creative ladies that I often blogstalk for all your cute ideas! Keep them coming!

Kindergarten Here He Comes!!

Yesterday Jayden "graduated" from preschool and he looked so cute doing it! The kids sang songs, danced, wore hats and star glasses and sang with pretend microphones. It was quite the show. Jayden is so excited to go to Kindergarten next year after having to do preschool 2 years in a row because of his age. We are so proud of all that he has learned and can't wait to see how much he grows next year!!

I'm a Big Kid Now!

Gavin at the "big table" eating blueberries
Or so he thinks!! This little man is definitely giving me a run for my money these days. All at once he is learning how to do all these new things - climbing on the table, climbing the ladder to the top bunk, opening doors, getting into the toilet...lovely-you get the point! I think I need to invest in some heavy duty child proof equipment. I'm gonna need it with him.

Will the Real Jayden Michael...

.....please stand up!! For class Jayden had to make a lifesize paperdoll of himself to display at Preschool Graduation. Can you tell the real one from the doll? =) Jayden helped by deciding what clothes he wanted to wear, gluing him together and coloring his skin. Today while we were finishing him up Jayden said, "It's like the second born of me!" I thought that was pretty cute.

Happy Birthday Kaitlin!!


Seven years ago today I was in the hospital holding my sweet baby girl for the first time! Jared and I were so happy to finally meet her after waiting 9 months and one long overdue week!! =) She was such a beautiful baby and we couldn't get enough of her! Seven years later she has grown into such a beautiful girl. I am so proud of the girl she has become. She loves to learn and loves to write. Lately she has been writing and drawing her own books. She really amazes me! I am so proud to be her mother! I love you Kaitlin....Happy Birthday!!

I have always wanted to plant a garden, and now that we live in a house with a nice sized backyard I was able to finally do it with the help of my Mother-in-Law Marnee. I may be a little obsessed with checking on my plants, but I love it!! When I was out watering the other day I spotted this on my pepper plant!! I was so excited I had to share.

Featured Artist?!?!

Here is a copy of our wards Sacrament Program...

I'm so glad that a member of our ward ran into me after church and asked if I saw it. I was late and I hadn't!! Kailtin loves to draw and she was so proud of herself when I showed it to her!!
