12th birthday July 27, 2010

We went ice skating for my daughters 12th birthday on Sunday. It was so fun! We had an awesome day together as a family. Some close family friends met us at the ice rink and hung out with us for a few hours. My 5 year old was crazy on the ice! He is fearless. I think he needs to play ice hockey someday.

It was 106 degrees outside, inside we needed jeans and a sweater. As soon as we were done we stripped down in the car back to our shorts, t-shirts and flip flops. I love the cold! I guess Arizona was a bad move for us. Although, I grew up in California, so I don’t know real “cold”. The fall through spring is great here.

My Scrapbook Room July 24, 2010

This is my favorite room in our house. I’m not done decorating it yet, but I wanted to share what I’ve done so far.

Where the magic happens.

Still have to have child locks on some things.

Girls Are Pirates Too July 14, 2010

Red and black again. I Love the whole Pirate thing. I embossed the rose using fired brick, Tim Holtz Distress Powder.

Eclipse July 2, 2010

I’m going to see Eclipse this weekend with my friend Tracy. So excited!  I heard it is really good, the best of the films so far. My sister-in-law saw it on Thursday night or rather Friday in the am, like 12 am to be exact. Crazy! I feel way too old to be staying out that late. Hopefully Tracy and I will get seats together. I can’t wait. Wish us luck!
