Saturday

Last Saturday

Here are some of the pix I promised! Sorry it took so long! I've been busy with last minute summer fun, stuff and digi scrappin'!


Guys got to play we together!

The elders came over! These guys were really cool!

Then we went swimming, played Settlers of Catan and played more Wii!


Here is my latest page! I kinda went crazy eh! The Zebra back ground is my own background!

Thursday
We went to a friend's house and hung out! It was a really warm day but the kids still wanted to go outside and they had a lot of fun! The kids got along great with the little ones and I was able to have REAL adult conversation!!!


When Rick came over the kids played Guitar Hero! Rick was so cute with the kids! He helped each kid play a game!

Friday

We went to my sister's and scrap booked! I haven't done it in soooo long(I really don't like paper scrappin' anymore! I can't wait to finish all my pix and never deal with the mess again! Digital is the only way) This is Nina's first page! I had a hard time handing over her photos to her but she really did a good job!

Lando is so sweat! He played with Jack-o! "Luke! I , am your father!"

It was pretty much up and down for Jack! He wanted someone playing with him the entire time! I was still able to finish 4 pages, Nina 3 pages and Auntie 10 or more!

Auntie's house is so fun! Feeding frenzies and climbing on the wall! The true Samuel comes out here! He is able to climb walls and things with his athletic cousins! Oh! And don't forget treats galore, no crusts on bread and playing with cool cousins!

I had insomnia(lately that is the case) and decided to do another page! This is my second attempt at digital scrap booking(first time without help)! I am getting a little better! Still a lot to learn, but it is exciting to think of all the things I will be able to do!

2007 Fashion Show
Tuesday
I finished Charlotte's doll dress (complete with hair accessories)! She loves it! They are ready for me to make more but I think I will save that for next week! I need a sewing room to keep doing more. I hate the mess it makes on our kitchen table (kind of hard to eat on a table full of fabric)!
I have been feeling too sedentary so I took Jack on a short bike ride (boy do I need the exercise)!

Then it was time for scouts! After loading the gang in the car we went hiking with the boys! It was hot but the boys had fun! I added a conservation project in there and had the boys pick up trash along the way!
Cubscout Hike!

After, Nina and I went on a bike ride to the video store and grocery store! We took the long way through different paseos and we had a blast! It was video day, thus we saw a bunch of friends! After that just Nina and I went to the pool and swam laps. We had fun bonding time!

Monday

Jack Has a Tooth!!!

Nina asked if he was old enough to have teeth and then said that she felt one. Sure enough he has a tooth! Out little boy is growing up too fast! He sits up on his own, scoots backwards, goes up on his hands and knees and rocks, makes raspberries (just started that yesterday), says momma and dadda and recognizes dadda for his Daddy! We even have him in his own bed for part of the night!
Making Room For Baby!
We re-arranged the boys room so it would feel less crowded now that the port-a-crib is in there too!


Company's Coming! Hurry and Clean!
That's one way to get my kids to clean! Scott makes the best P&J! He made lunch while everyone else cleaned!


My First Digi Scrapbook Page!


Mandy came over to teach me how to digital scrapbook! I am so excited and a little over whelmed! It is so much to take in at once but I can't wait to toss out my old scrapbooking stuff and have less clutter!
Sewing
My big sis' inspired me and the girls! They asked me to make doll clothes for their new dolls. Nina went in the garage, got out the fabric and was ready to go! I am a bit rusty but the concept and pattern was created fairly quickly (it's not a difficult pattern to make up...I was not about to go crazy). It turned out really cute and Charlotte now wants another dress tomorrow! I doubt that, with preparing and having scouts tomorrow!!!

The girls wanted a mexican flair for a hair pretty!

Rick Mows The Lawn
Rick was so awesome! He helped me on the computer, with the baby while Mandy was over,move furniture around, cleaned the house with the kids and I, made frappes, fixed lights, yard work....What a stud!!!

Sam plays around with the camera!

He took the pix of me today! He's only 6 yrs. He's pretty good! I think the mouth shot is cool!
