Wow - It's been awhile

I didn't realize it had been so long since I blogged. So, a little update on us.

We've been hunting for a new dog. Chuck has been itching for a large dog and we have maybe found one. He is out looking at it right now. It's a Mastiff/Rottweiler mix. She's 14 weeks old. So, we'll see if he comes home with her tomorrow from being up in SLC for the farmer's market.

Speaking of the Farmer's Market. Chuck has had really good sales this year. We are hoping we have enough product to get us through the end of September.

We have been having rain every afternoon the past several days. It's nice to have the cooler weather and I haven't had to water the lawn all week. That's the best part about rain. We have flash flood warnings again today. Fortunately our house isn't in the path of any flooding, although the houses across the street have a big wash. The first part of July we had flash flooding and the wash looked like a raging river!

Last of all . . . only 9 days until Joshua turns 3 (can't believe it) and only 11 days until school starts! Whooo hooo!

CT Assignment Layouts

These first two layouts are done with a kit by Connie Prince called Garden Flavors and it is available at PPF. It's even on sale right now!


These next three layouts were done with a kit called Don't Eat the Daisies by Mandy Mystiques. Mandy was on the Design Team at PPF for awhile and I was fortunate enough to get this fantastic kit. However, she has left PPF, but you can find her store at Elemental Scraps (one of my favorite stores).

New Layouts

Here are my first layouts as a CT member for Purple Paper Flowers. Credits are: Cozy Nights - Jannylynn at Purple Paper Flowers - http://purplepaperflowers.com/shoppe/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15_62&products_id=930

Lots of stuff . .

I've been pretty busy the last week or so. On Tuesday Stacia, Shayla, Joshua and I went up to my parents house. I had to go to a training class for my data entry job on Wednesday so we spent the night there. Stacia stayed because it's her turn to go to the farmer's market with my dh this weekend, so he can bring her home with him.

Today I had to work and then I took the three kids home with me to the free lunch at the park and then we went into Richfield for a little shopping. Makiya had a birthday party to attend at 3:00 at the bowling alley, so we dropped her off there and we came home. I goofed around with some scrapbooking stuff and then we had dinner. After dinner I had to feed and water the worms. Then I tried to mow the front lawn, but I could NOT get the dang lawn mower started. Oh well. . .I'll have to let my husband take care of that!

Okay, now for some exciting news. I've been accepted on two new Creative Teams. The first one is for Toy Box Designs at Stone Accent Studio. You can see a couple of layouts I did up with her Summer Bloom kit if you scroll down.

The second Creative Team is for Purple Paper Flowers. I'm so excited to be back on a CT for a store. That is my favorite kind of CT because I get to work with so many great designers.

I am still designing a bit, but not so much. After my computer crashed and I lost so much stuff it's been hard to get back into the swing of things again.
