More Snow!!

I am soooooooo sick of seeing white!! No more snow please. I am getting cabin fever out here in Strasburg, Colorado. I haven't been out of the house for about 2 weeks. We got a blizzard. Then they called for another one. Thankfully that turned out to be just about a foot.





You can just see the top of our fence posts here. Way too much snow for me.

Snow? It was only October!!

We got a big snow storm on October 26, 2006. I was NOT ready for snow just yet.

Trip to the May Farms

We ventured out to the May Farms and it was such a great day to be outside.

Pumpkin Carving.

Here are a few pictures from the carving party.

Halloween 2006

Here are the girls all dressed up for a night of trick or treating.

I made this butterfly costume when Anissa was in preschool. We recycled it for Anaia this year.

Now does Anissa really look like a devil to you?? Look at that sweet face.

Turkey, Turkey where is the Turkey??

For Anaia's class they had to take Tom the turkey and decorate him so he would not be recognized to avoid being cought!! Here is the cute little fella we came up with.
Tom the turkey before:


Tom the turkey after:

Eeeeks!!! It's been so long since I posted!

Here are some tins that we decoupaged this weekend. Here is Anaia's princess tin.




Here is Anissa's horse tin.



We had lots of fun this weekend doing crafts. Besides the tins, we made many objects doing origami (paper folding). We also folded some white paper and did some cuts and made pretty cool looking snowflakes.

Survivor Layout

Here is my survivor layout for this round. I used the fork, knife and spoon stickers as the letter "A". Inked the slash pocket and put a pumpkin shaped tag inside. The star is above the fence. Ribbon used for tag and an accent on a picture. Tiny clear mosaic tiles inside the stars on top. Snap on tag and mulberry paper used as a mat for photo and an accebt to a photo. "Embrace" label used along with "The Moment".

Window to my soul

What do you see in there?

Anaia

Here is Anaia playing on the swing set just having a great time.



She just had to have this scarf and her cowboy boots on.

Gifts for Prizes and such

Here are two things I made for a couple of my friends on the Scrappin_FUN group. Tammy's is for winning my sketch challenge And Jenn's is for being runner up for the sketch challenge and for doing all the work on the summer Scrap Challenge. I hope they will like them. They are address books and I altered them and gave them a distressed look.

Last and final layout for the Summer Scrap Off Challenge

For the final challenge we could pick from a list of things to include on our layout. I chose inking, hand stitching, rub-ons and bling. This is Anaia playing Peek A Boo. We would put a blanket over her head and she would have so much fun popping her head out from underneath.

Bling Challenge

It is hard to see in this picture but I used pearl glitter on the middle of the blue flower.

More scrap off lay outs

For this challenge we needed to use rub-ons. I chose to use Making Memories alphabet rub-ons for this layout of Anaia prancing around naked.

Fall layout made for Scrap off Challenge

We had to make a layout using the color orange. No better way to us that color than with Fall pictures!

Sister's 4 Life LO for Scrap Off challenge

We needed to make a layout with stamping on it. Here is what I made using some pictures of the girls that my Mom recently had taken.

Antelope LO for scrap challenge

This is a layout I made with some great pictures I took of the Antelope that run around on our land.

Scrap Off Final challenge

Here is my entry for the final challenge for our Summer Scrap Off.

Child Photographer?

Here are two pictures Anissa took of herself on the back porch. When she gets a hold of my camera she is a picture taken fool! Maybe we have a future photographer here.

Purple Predators

Here is Anissa with her softball award & metal. Her team (Purple Predators) did so well. This was Anissa's first year playing softball. She loved it!
