Proud to be these boys JAM-MA!

When I was young, I thought grandma's were these sweet little old ladies that sewed stuff for you and made you eat liver if you were sick.

That's probably because mine was like that. She was so adorable!!

ME? Not so much!! LOL

Let's see...when my grandkids grow up I want them to remember me as a wild and crazy one that was more than happy to have water fights with them in the kitchen, get down on the floor and play cars with them, put them on my shoulders, bring them yummy stuff instead of just the "healthy" stuff.

I love my boys!! They bring me so much happiness!!

Their little faces make me smile the second I see them!

I love my Tanner's crazy hair! It covers half his face and when he see's me, he is so happy!!!

I love the way that my little Tristan points to everything with a serious look. I love that even though he can't speak yet, I know exactly what he wants!

I love that they know that they can come over and get crazy with grandma!!

This grandma wears pig tails and snorts when she laughs!!

I love that I'm their Jam-ma!

CHA is just around the corner....and WE are excited!!!

So looking forward to tag teaming with this gal!!!!

Hope to see you there!!!

Leave me a comment and someone will win one of my kits after CHA!!!

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-hawwwwwwwwww!!!!

Just got back from one of the most fun and HOT experiences of my life!!! LOL

The hot part? Let's see....100 degrees by 5am? Holy moly!!!! Shelly, Sarah, and I were dying from this crazy heat!!! When we weren't, we were LAUGHING and being CRAZY and having an amazing good time!!!!! Seriously, we think we should write a book. LOL

The three of us had a great time at the Great American Scrapbook Convention.

We met a lot of wonderful people!!! Not just Texans...scrappers came from all over the world!!

I was asked to teach and I had a blast doing it! While I was there I was also asked to MC the crop nights that took place in the evening!!! Wasn't expecting to do that, LOL, but I had a blast!!!! Thank you to all the HUNDREDS of woman that attended and made my experience so wonderful!!!

Here are some pics from our trip!

Shelly and I with Amy!!! She's on our Paper Tree House design team!!!

My Paper tree house kit club projects!!!

So exciting!! The day has finally arrived.

I remember the day that I got my kit. I opened up the package and squealed!!!

This kit comes filled with a lots of fun stuff! I love how everything coordinates so well and how the colors stand out!!

My first project is this HOME banner. Normally I would look at a lot of product and that alone would take me a long time to put together but since everything went well together, I popped out this puppy in one night at a crop! Everything but the Punky Sprouts album (taken apart to become a banner) and some paint is in this kit. That's a lot of stuff!!

Here are some close ups!!

After I completed that banner I still had a ton of product so I did a layout.

I love this owl!!! He's so cute!!

I still had products so I created another layout.

I still have tons more product so I'm going to create a few more layouts and cards.

You will love this kit!! Make sure to check out all the add on's including the one with the Punky Sprouts album.

If you want to purchase this kit go HERE!!!

Did you know that $5.00 of every kit will go towards the Children's foundation? Way cool!

Messenger bags

This morning Sierra and I sat down to do some creating. We both had messenger bags. Hers was part of a kit. My bag I have had for YEARS! It's been sitting in my garage this whole time.

We worked on both of ours together and it was a lot of fun!!!

Here's Sierra adding some stars to her bag.

Her bag

Here's my bag.

It's a little simple but I like my projects like that.

I stamped, glimmer mist, wrote, and did some other little things to it.

Thanks for looking!!!

So for those of you taking my classes? OMG, we are going to have a lot of fun!!!!

Love my job!!! :)

A special day with my special girl!

The other day Sierra came home THRILLED about an event that a lady at the school was doing.

She was going to the tidepools in Pescadero to teach the kids about the different water animals.

She told us it was in Santa Cruz and until we got in the car and were given the directions that's where we thought we were going too. LOL

I love Pescadero. It's close to Half Moon Bay. It's such a beautiful area!!!

My little Sierra is a nature girl so she couldn't wait for Saturday to come so we could head out!

Paul and I took her and let her be free (kinda we were there with her) but let her get wet and do whatever she wanted and let me tell you, that girl was so happy!!!

She caught crabs, fish, star fish, and more!!

Here are some of the pictures of the day.

Love this little one!!! She always makes me smile!!
