~Chalk~




Chalk... is a wonderful thing. Your paper is the size of your driveway!! It is so fun to draw with and if you mess up... get the broom out. All you have to do is swipe it off!! You can find chalk at grocery stores in the toys department. Kids love it! You might get a little messy... but that's why they invented washing machines, I guess... try it!! I triple dog dare you!!

~ My Beautiful Bee Pictures~

Yesterday, I walked past our tree that was blooming and I heard a lot of humming... turns out they were honey bees! So... i grabbed the camera for some close up pictures! I never knew they were so beautiful! They were a little hard to catch on camera, but I did it!!

~My Wonderous Snack~


The other day we went to the produce stand and got some grapefruit. So... I had a half for a snack. If fit perfectly in my cute, little, flower bowl! I sat in the front yard eating it... it was really sweet and it made me feel springy!! I thought it would totally go with our blog!! I hope you like it!!

Homemade Card Making

Recently we made some extra cards for when we need them... they look like this... It took no time at all. Me and Mom made them together. All we used was Elmer's glue, we also borrowed a paper crimper for the cool texture! We had a lot of fun! Other things we used were stamps, scrap paper, stickers, and buttons. It's fun and easy... you can even do it with the little kids. We are scrapbookers so thats why we had all the supplies... if you don't have any supplies, just go to the closest craft store. That will be the place where you can see ideas for your cards... like the "FRIENDZ" card, we just looked at our sparkly letters that matched the sparkly stickers. I recommend this craft to all!!
