Happy Thanksgiving!!!

TYPICAL

This is a typical, getting ready for school kindof morning with my crazy daughter. (Please ignore the Lara "morning do" I didn't have time to get myself ready.) Isn't this hilarious? Kylie usually puts on a shy and quiet front for most people, but at home she is a wild nut! We are usually entertained by her very crazy and witty stunts. Enjoy!

Honorable Mention

So this is our brag blog! Kylie spent tons of time creating a 3D art project for the Reflections contest. She and her best friend JoAnna received "Honorable Mention", we were all very excited! She said the best part was creating it and also getting the prizes. (There's honesty for ya.)

I'm on a roll!

Heidi and I went to IKEA yesterday and found some great stuff! We didn't even buy anything. I just love window shopping, and planning, and organizing things.! We had so much fun. Today I am making home-made chicken noodle soup and sweet corn bread.

I've finally cleaned and organized my scrap-book supplies and I'm ready to scrap again. I cut up the rest of my quilt I'm working on and it's just begging me to sew it together! I feeling pretty good about myself.

The only undone project I have, is to put pictures in the frames that I've had hanging in the family room for a year! I don't know... that might be taking it too far.

Double Digits!!!

Kylie turns 10 on November 4th. I can't believe she's that old. We all celebrated with Baskin Robbin's icecream cake. The hit of the evening was watching Ty SAW through the cake. (fyi: when they tell you to take the cake out of the freezer 20 min. before serving---it's really more like 1 hour and 20 minutes!) We surprised Kylie with a digital camera. Gramma was right on board with a Scrap booking set, and Heidi and Terrah wowed her with a bead-weaving kit. Ahhh, projects! Kylie lives for projects. Tuesday, the real birthday,day; we will be tieing it all up with a round of family ice-skating. Here's hoping we all live through it!
