It's a rainy, rainy day here. I LOVE it. My FIL is out back pouring concrete and I'm helping the kids with their homework. Life is good and busy. I didn't even get upset when I heard a crashing noise and found this in the kitchen. Notice the blur that is Jonah at the bottom of the pic. Accidents happen right? I'm tired and I wanna take a nap. Tortellini soup for dinner cuz it sounds amazing. Hope y'all have a great day.

Bug Birthday
"Sending you Worm Wishes on your Bug Day"
My kiddos had a birthday party to go to today and I wanted to make a fun card for the new eight year old. A little bug vignette if you will. I really like this set...I should use it more often. Hope you're all having a sweet day! My in-laws will be here shortly so I'd better go straighten up!

Angel of Mine
I love this southwestern angel stamp by StampAMania. They're a company out of New Mexico. They're wood block stamps used to have laser cut images in the wood. I'm happy to own a few. I wanted to try her a bit more subdued this time (see below for other variations). I think I like her bold though and colored with prismas and gamsol. I can't believe I ever used to dread coloring a stamped image. It's so therapeautic. So my two oldest are off to their second day of school. Aaron and I are trying to find things to occupy his time...he doesn't want to go outside by his lonesome. Have a great day!

Farewell NM
My mom has just left my house this morning. They're moving across country to Pennsylvania. I feel so sad right now. She's never been more than a state away and now I'm not sure when I'll see her again. I'm praying she'll get to come here every once in a while too. She raised my brother and I all on her own and taught me so much about being a good person I don't think I'll ever be able to live up to her example. She's also a grandma who spoils her grandkids rotten with candy. My mom's got a crazy side too...I can't remember how many times I've told her, "TMI, mom, TMI!!!". Well I'm off to work out and get outta this slump. Have a super day.
