Nuggets Game

It's almost basketball season! Wahoo! Anthony took Gavin to a Nuggets game last week and after the game they got to go down on the court and shoot some hoops. They had a great time!

Lily's 2 Year Pictures

Yay! We were somewhat successful in getting Lily's picture taken today! She hasn't had a photo taken in a year, and the last one I have of her and Gavin, she was 3 months old I think. She is a big stinker when it comes to a camera and a stranger. Put them both together and we've got a disaster. This is something new for me-I used to take Gavin every 3 months until he was 2 and he loved it! I always had a hard time picking what pictures to buy because he hammed it up for all of them. Not Lily, she is not a fan at all. There isn't one really of her smiling her big smile, but the photographer definitely captured her personality! Gavin did good as usual. :)







If she can't see you, you must not be able to see her...

Halloween Sweet Centers Card

Here are my cards for card swap tonight. The theme was whatever you want, and I've been wanting to try these super cute little cups that Stampin' Up has right now. They are these little plastic cups that you can fill with whatever you want and add them to your card. They of course even have a stamp set to go with them, which is the stamp I used. I usually don't use Halloween cards, but I think this is a neat idea. Hopefully the girls like them. It's been so long since I've been to a card swap, I'm excited to get back to it!


I saw a cute idea here to make the cup into a flap so you don't have to ruin the card to get the candy out:

Finally, some new projects!

Man-it's been forever since I've made anything! It felt so good to get creative again! (even when I used other's creativity) :)
Pumpkin Bucket:
This one is so cute in person! I totally copied Lynn's version-why mess with a good thing? Check out her blog for the instructions.

This one I've seen several times and thought it was a great idea! Here is one of my favorite versions. I made mine into a tag for my card swap group.

Now for a couple of projects I actually didn't copy. :)
Another birthday tag for card group. I punched out 4 stars to make the 3-D star.

I saw the template for this card in a magazine, I love how it turned out!

Zoo

Last week the kids and I decided to hit the zoo after school. What a perfect time to go! It had cooled down beautifully and best part-no one was there! No school bus loads of kids, nobody. And since it had cooled off, the animals were out and about. We got a front row view of everything! We will have to do this again before it gets too cold, it was so fun!
