1st Football Game


Orting Animals Black won 20-13. The girls had a great time. Amber's favorite part was when she got her picture taken with her friend, who she likes, who is the quarter back, and who made the final touchdown to win the game. Aren't they cute.

Cheer Practice



Getting ready for the first game. Amber has been practicing really hard. A couple weeks ago they stared stunting. Here are some pictures at practice.

Summer Time Fun!

I hope everyone had a great summer. Mine was a lot of fun hanging out with my kids. My daughter started cheer in August. My mom who lives in Louisiana came to visit for a whole month. That was great, I only get to see her once a year.

I'm Back!!!

Sorry I have not been writing. It has been a crazy summer. This was my first summer to be home with my kids. (7 & 10). We worked on the farm and played all summer. Now that they are back to school I am going to get back into my blogging. So I have lots to write about, keep checking back.

Sugar Snap Peas

So my garden is coming along nicely for my first year. The other day my peas were finally ready to eat. They were so sweet. Just pick and eat right out of the garden. I am very excited that it is all doing well. Hope that everyone doing a garden this year is also doing good.

Schools Almost Out

This is that last week of school for my kids. They are so excited. Me too, I think. Hopefully the weather will start feeling like summer soon.

Cheer leading

Garden Growing

So the garden is growing very nice. This is my very first vegetable garden. I am very excited to see how it all turns out. I still have lots of flowers growing in the greenhouse. 99% of them were started from seeds. My 9 year old daughter and I had lots of fun planting them and watching them grow. Will show pictures once they are blooming good.

The How To - on the Tea for Two

Cut a piece of card stock 3 1/2in wide by 9in long. Score/fold at 1 1/2in, 1 3/4in, 5 1/4in and 5 1/2in. The decorative paper on the inside is 3 1/4in square, punched with a 1/2 circle punch to make a slit to hold the tea bag in. The outside was stamped with swirls and flamingos. The flower on the front is also made from circle punches and a scallop circle punch, then a small piece of velcro to hold it closed.
Please let me know if you need any additional information, or if there is anyhthing else I can help you with.
