Recent ones I've done:
The second picture is the gift I gave our mail carrier for Christmas. I decorated a jar of my homemade apple butter and made him a pop-up card. I hope he enjoyed it! (If you'd like the apple butter recipe, click here!) I assure you, it's delicious and so easy!!
The third photo is the birthday card I made my mom.

Christmas Fun :)
I can't believe it's almost 2010! We had a great Christmas and P had a lot of fun opening his gifts. I'm glad I actually got some smiles out of him this year. haha
Christmas Eve me and P made peanut butter cookies! He did a great job helping each step! :)

DIY Craft Desk
Before last month, I had to pull all of my scrap supplies out of my rolling tote, drag them to the dining room, and pile my table full of scrap goodness. I was completely happy having such a large area to work with, but Willie was less than happy with tripping over my supplies as he walked to the kitchen. :) We decided I needed a desk, but I couldn't find one that I felt was sturdy enough or was in our price range.
I had no idea how to get started, so Willie showed me how to counter-set (ooo, so that's how it's done!) and away I went! I'm so proud that I built my desk all by myself...okay, minus him getting me started and him helping me a few times I was cursing the screws. :D
I love it! And nothing beats feeling accomplished. :) I made a few changes, but here are the progression pictures!

I meant to post this the other day. This video cracks me up every time I watch it. :) I took this the night we moved into our new home (our household goods weren't delivered until a few days later) and we were keeping ourselves busy. Yes, it's sideways. Sorry. :D

Loving this weather!
Fall weather has offically arrived! I can't explain how much I missed fall weather in the US. I had a great time in Korea but I'm so happy to be back!
Phoenix and I have been going to parks almost every day. I took some really cute pictures of P at the Jefferson Memorial on Sunday. He had a great time playing on the slide!

It's been awhile...
It's been quite a while since I've updated this! Oops. :) hehe
Well, since the last post we've found out where we're heading to next! Fort Campbell, KY! :D We're so excited because it's a short drive to our family (only around 4 hours) and a short drive down to our friends in Alabama! :)
Phoenix turned 21 months on the 16th and he's starting to say a few more words and even started repeating the alphabet at times! He's growing up so fast.
Since last week I've finished a few more pages so I'll post what I've done for the April LOAD (layout a day) for our board on Babycenter.com

Tag you are it.THE RULES:****** Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.*** Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their name as well as links to their blog.*** Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
1. At one point I had 7 piercings...I'll let you wonder where. haha :D
