Fun Photos Friday #19: Family Math Night

I am the first to admit that I am not very good at math. Some might say awful when referring to my lame math skills, but I believe there is still hope for me.  I know when I am buying things and they are on sale, I may take more time than others but I am generally in the ballpark with my estimates.

So last night when I attended my first Family Math Night at my son’s school, I was a bit nervous. Hoping my lack of brilliance in the numbers department would not be exposed. I went so far as to split the boys up so that my youngest who is 6 would walk with me and we would play age-appropriate math games while my husband took our oldest who is 10.

I have to say it was a lot of fun and we even picked up a nice packet of games to play at home (Maybe there is still hope for me!).

Well have a blessed weekend!

80thbirthdaycard

Hello! Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend.  The boys had their vacation week this past week and so we ended our week attending two birthday parties yesterday.  My best friend from college’s mother was celebrating her 80th birthday.   I made this card for her since she did not want any gifts.We all had fun and then after a few hours we went to celebrate my brother-in-laws birthday where my mother-in-law had prepared a delicious meal and made a home-made cake.

I used two different Flourishes’ stamps to create this card. I look forward to using the numbers (Numbers in Blossom) again for more birthday cards.

Have a blessed day!

Fun Photos Friday – # 18 – ‘Mom vs. Laundry’

I am the first to admit, I am not to good with math but I can’t figure out how 4 people can make this much laundry in what feels like a very short period of time.  Look how it’s exploding out of the baskets.

I usually wash a couple loads a day but sometimes, life and work get in the way and this is the result – a back load of madness. My husband and I sometimes watch this show called Man vs. Nature and there is another one called Man vs Food. Well I decided this is my show – ‘Mom vs. Laundry’!  The chronicle of my daily battle with mountains of laundry! I am still on the fence as to whether this photo should be included in “Fun Photo Friday” since there is absolutely nothing fun about laundry. But I thought it might make us laugh nonetheless.

I hope you all have a blessed weekend!

LSS Haul

One thing I love about my LSS (Local Scrapbooking Store) is that they have  a crop night every Wednesday. I have been going there for years and have met the most amazing women who have become dear friends.  Another great thing is that we can shop while we craft.  So I always managing to find goodies to buy. Above are two new stamp sets I bought.  The Ali Edwards for Technique Tuesday stamps I got for 40% off. I plan on using it for my Project Life. The Kaiser Craft stamps on the right will be great sentiments for my cards I make.

AEHaul1I just had to have this letter sticker sheet with all these great phrases in pretty spring colors.  I will be using these in Project Life as well as scrapbook layouts.

Of course I had to buy the 6×6 pad that goes with the sticker sheet. The colors are great for spring and Easter cards.  The Authentic paper pad on the right will be great for summer cards. I can’t tell you how much I love these shades of blue and yellow.

I have been hearing a lot about these Wink of Stella markers and I finally got one. I am going to try it out on some cards. I am thinking they can add a little sparkle.

The easter phrase stickers were so cute. I just had to have them. They are small enough to stick on PL photos. Especially the easter egg hunt we always have for the boys.

Have a blessed day!
