check out my blue monkey!

jk...owen loves to pose for photos...totally cracks me up b/c then he needs to see it right away...what has digital done to us? remember how excited we used to be when we would get a roll of film back? oh gosh, i totally remember when we would in college and we were all fighting over them..."let me see, let me see"! Oh and the best was, "Ah, i don't remember taking doing that?" Oh no, no...the best was..."Don't show my mom!"

Seriously though...love when my little man poses...i tell him to look over there and he does but then looks back at the camera before i get the photo off...what a riot. love him to pieces more and more every day.

I went to see my girls this weekend and we totally had a blast. I ran into someone I haven't seen in years as well and it was so great to see them. Did you ever have someone in your life where no matter how long it has been, you can pick up right where you left off? Relationships like that are one in a million. I just hope I get to keep in contact with them forever.


Owen was telling me yesterday about how a butterfly used to be a catepillar. He explained the entire process to me, as a 3 1/2 year would, and it was just the cutest thing ever. I love seeing the world through his eyes, so simple and amazing at the same time. I need to look at things like this more often.


He is soooo like the catepillar right now...metamorphasizing right before my eyes...nothing you can do...just nature taking its course that one day he will spread his wings and fly. As a mother I am pretty sure that is what we all hope for and dread the most!


My little man! The photo I uploaded is a photo that we took together last summer. We have butterfly bushes all over our yard, and man do they attract butterflies!!!! When we pull into the drive way he just yells, "mom, mom~~~look, look!" as they all fly away. Then we sit on the front porch or work in the garden and they come back when they realize we aren't going to hurt them.


Everyone should have one of those bushes...they are super cheap, don't need any water, like direct sun and of course, are gorgeous.


Okay...enough of my ramblings for one day....


I have a ticker on the site and see lots of traffic...please leave a comment that you came to visit! I go visiting too!!!

This month I am guest designing over at Savvy N Sassy (link to right)so please come take a look at all the great stuff over there!

It is a ribbon site so I posted my challenge to Ruche! Yes, ruche your ribbon just like in the big fashion mags! There are so many links to scrapbooking and fashion design that I thought it would be fun to do something like that.

Ruche, pronounced "roosh", is just gathering your ribbon and sewing it...it is popping up all over scrapbooking, normally just called "gathering your ribbon" lol! but I thought it would be fun to make it fancy!

check out that great ribbon i get to work with ...Pastel Punch! yummy!
