MAY the 4th... be with you (StarWars dress up day at work)

 

Jimmy picking me up from work... wore his Chewbacca shirt today too. :)

Princess Leia and Chewbacca 

(almost 10years and still adorable)

Has anyone seen Allan?

Random pic of me, that I like

Some crafting

I've been making name banners with my cricut lately with Regina. She has a lot of babyshower's she's been throwing this year, so the ladies use the banners to hang in front of the tablecloth. Then later, the banner can hang in the baby's nursery.

This is a name banner that I made last night for Jimmy's coworker. His boss' assistant is very pregnant with her first girl.

 

Made this one for a preggers lady at our church. The nursery is Frogs and Monkeys themed.

UPDATE: Toni had her baby Monday. Nice monkey pajamas, Jack!

 

This is one of the two name banners I made with Regina.

Scrapbook layout I did last night about Elaine loosing her first tooth

I don't think my tour of the house ever included my craft area. It took a while to get it all unpacked after the move. :)

Liss' Birthday day-trip

I realized I hadn't posted pictures from my birthday day-trip to Canton Trade Days.
 

Favorite thing I picked up in Canton.

 Being silly.

 Elaine reading... always.
By the way, her favorite books are the 'animorph' series. Right now, she's in the middle of reading "Holes". She won an award at school for reading so many books this year. She is only second place out of the entire elementary school! The student who got more reading points than Elaine is in the 5th grade (Lainey is in 2nd grade). She also was one of 5 students selected this 6weeks to get to eat lunch with the school principal and vice principal out at a restaurant. They went to 'Good Eats'.

Don't we all wish we could sleep as soundly as Allan? He can fall asleep ANYWHERE... like flipping a light switch. And he wakes up just as fast.

The girls at work made me a card and cupcakes (even though they had already taken me shopping for my birthday a week earlier).

Resurrection Sunday 2011

At home before church.

Codi and I had a Slumber party for Regina

Two days after Regina's 39th birthday, Codi and I hostessed a slumber party at my house to celebrate. We figured Regina is going through a lot (with her husband having stage 4 cancer) and could use some girl-time. Elaine stayed up til about 10pm, then the rest of us watched 'Sex in the City'. It was really mellow and fun. I guess I should mention that Regina likes/collects flamingos, thus the decor.

Weather Girl layout

I helped Regina a few times in the last week or so, with my Cricut machine, cutting out goodies for her daughter-in-law's babyshower. One night this last week, Codi came over and together we used the Cricut to cut letters for some posters she had to make for a class. She brought over cardstock with adhesive already on the back (like peel-n-stick). It's awesome! Saves me from using gluestick on the back of all the cut letters. :)

My Cricut has been out all week on the dining room table (where I can see Netflix while I work).  Since it was already pulled out and set up, I did this scrapbook layout the other night, about when Elaine pretended she had an invisible umbrella.

Monkey kids

Today I found this bag at one of those "(Almost)Everything is $1" stores. It's embroidered with the Girl Scouts logo, is reversible, has 5 zipper pockets and a heavy-duty strap. It was only $3.99!  Elaine's gonna LOVE it! :)

Yesterday night, the kids were climbing the tree in our yard.
