Blogging Isn't my Thing, I don't think!!

I know, I really, really stink at this....I either just plain forget or just don't have the extra time to do this....I will try to get better at it!

Let's see what is going on, basically the same stuff, busy sewing up a storm, TIS THE SEASON. I have lots of new and fun items that can be seen here, in my Online Craft Show booth:

Saturday Morning

It is a wonderful fall morning! I love fall!! I can't wait to see all the leaves change!! It is always so spectacular!

What is going on around here? The usual, football, football and some working and creating!

Remember last week when I said Football just wasn't my favorite....well, on Thursday, Taylor had a bit of a head injury. It was NOT fun. But he is feeling much better this morning already!!

Here are some of my new Holiday tags....I love RED & Snowmen, can you tell???

We have 2 weddings today!! This ought to be fun!! So I suppose I better start ironing clothing!!! No playing with paper today!!

Darn!

Have a good weekend everyone!!

Are You Ready For Some Football?

I always get so nervous about this sport, the action, the roughness, the piles of large boys etc!!

Taylor had his second game yesterday, which even took me to another state, that is big in my book. I don't travel well!! We played in Moorhead, which is right next door to Fargo, North Dakota!!!

Here is Taylor carrying the ball, he is a running back. It scares me everytime he carries the ball, because he always is at the BOTTOM of the pile!

And here he is doing his other position...Long Snapper! I think this is funny to see him do this!!

I am so excited, I have some really fun winter and Christmas tags coming to my Etsy Shop!! I just giggle when I see them!! So keep watching, I will be listing them SOON!!

1st Days of School!!!

Well, I always hate to see the summer end, but for some reason, I just couldn't "take" summer anymore and needed for my children to get back into something constructive! As I have said before, I hate to see Emily start her senior year, but.....

I have said first "DAYS" of school, Taylor being a sophomore and first year at the high school, they have a day just for the sophs. So his first day was yesterday......can you tell how thrilled he was??? NOT!
So now this morning, in between the chaos I managed to get a few pictures again. Here is Emily first day as a SENIOR!! Getting ready to leave in her car!

And then one together.....the poor kid NEEDS a haircut, but we have had NO time for that with football!! So, I guess he just keeps flipping those bangs to the side for the time being!!!Ahhhhhh all day peace and quiet....

This is SO Exciting for ME!!

Flora Tags

Yep, little ol' me!! A little over a week ago, I was asked by a customer on Etsy about some of my tags. We struck a deal and look where they landed:

It is in the second group of pictures, the avacado (or Bamboo color) Flora journal shipping tag!! See it??

Christy is a very exciting and talented gal, she has put together one of the absolute best looking kits I have ever seen. She has soooooo many fun things, and the add-on kit is just as amazing.

AND, I just read, she has 6 kids!!! Mercy, what a gal!!

So I am off the drawing board....new penny rug done, needing pictures, want to get some new tags made up, and well, some more stitchery things.

The list is long.....as always!

AND, I really should take Taylor to get some back to school clothes!

Trying to stay Afloat!

Summer is nearing the end....I am not sure if that is good or bad!!! Emily will enter her senior year. We all know how quickly time flies, so......that makes me sad!! I remember dropping her off for kindergarten and her running the length of the playground, crying "mmmmmmmmmmmoooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmm"!! Poor dear!!

I have been working on new things, I am trying to get NEW things on my website. I know my wholesale people are looking for new ideas for their stores!! Any ideas what you are looking for? Email me, I would love to hear!!

Some new tags for Etsy will be listed in the next few days. So keep watching for those!!

The weather has turned to fall here in Minnesota, those 90 degree days with 100% humidity, I hope are gone for long time!! Too hot for me!!

I have joined this new community for Etsy Lovers---check it out!

Where O' Where Have I Been????

Good question! July flew by just as fast as can be. I can't really say what we did or didn't do this month, a little baseball, dance camp, a little more baseball, working, sweating in the July hot weather......

I have been trying to stay busy with my tag making and some stitching. I can show ya some of my latest tags.....am loving these new primitive Halloween tags, I have another set using these fun stamps that I will post tomorrow, they are on my camera, but someone stole by batteries for their xbox controller!!!

And how about these????

I love the vintage look these have, they are perfect for any travel journal or scrapbook page!! So fun!

I have some fun pillows that I will be adding to Etsy soon, so you will get a sneek preview on them!! Leave your comments and I will do a drawing for a fun tag set!

I suppose, I need to hit the hay.....until next time! And don't forget the DRAWING!!
