my halloweenies
so i don’t have many photos from halloween. a couple before we left, a few iphone pics. truth be told, i’m not very good at being a part of an activity if i have my camera out.
i’m sure others are better at this…but i miss out if i’m using my DSLR. i’m always hanging back, standing apart from everyone…camera in front of my face, and i miss the moment.
i didn’t want to do that this year. i wanted to be a part of the festivities this year. for those of you that can photograph a moment and be present…that is absolutely awesome. maybe one day i’ll be there, maybe not.
the girls have been BEGGING me to wear their costumes again, so i might let them dress up and play in the backyard and i’ll snap some pics then.
anyway, here are a few photos. harper was a “GOOD witch” as she told everyone, sadie was a strawberry (i think this outfit was probably supposed to be strawberry shortcake, but she wanted to be a STRAWBEWWY!), lucy was a turkey and cate was a bumblebee.
i had grandiose plans to make catie a pilgrim (complete with a musket and hat), but shockingly (not,snicker) it didn’t happen. so she wore one of H’s old costumes.
does anyone see a shocking resemblance?
HAHAHAHHAHA!
oh how i love that CZ.
here are the shots i got:
happy friday sweet friends! be looking for an awesome giveaway this weekend!

american crafts guest design
i was so flattered to be asked to guest design for american crafts this month.
the assigned theme was “i’m grateful for…” which made me even more excited! 🙂 i had a blast playing with amy tangerine, nightfall, and garden cafe goodies!
here’s what i came up with:
this first layout is about harper and all of the things about her that i am most thankful for.
this one is about how grateful i am that jimmy is home and our family is together again:
then there is my attempt at a card. teehee!
and last is my favorite project. i’ve decided to do a gratitude journal this month. here is the beginning of the journal..i still have lots to add!
