Harvest Autumn Treasury

This lovely treasury was put together by Verre Design. You can see my card on the bottom left. Enjoy!

Boo! Tags

Aren't these fun? These are spider webs on hand inked tags and embossed to look leathery. The back of the tag is plain for you to write your message on. These are great for adult parties and school parties. You can find them in my etsy shop.

Sick Days

Yesterday, Stasiu got off the bus with a fever and a stomach ache. Turns out there's a bug going around and three weeks into the school year, we catch the first one. He was feeling better today, but I kept him home just to be sure. We actually had a great day.

He made this mask in school. I put holes in it and yarn on it so he could wear it. He's had it on just about all day.


We watched Planet Earth, Dirty Jobs and Dinosaur Train. We learned that Buddy is a T-Rex and they handled the whole eating other dinosaurs thing pretty well for kids. I was kind of wondering if he'd eat one of his adoptive siblings. Apparently in Dinosaur Train land, the carnivores eat carrion. They don't say where it comes from...

We also built a fort. A pretty good one if you ask me. I had a blast with this. Phoebe liked it, too since that is where she took her nap today.

Homework got done, we've colored, played outside, and took some pictures. He' doing better so he's off to school tomorrow.

Labor Day Sale

I'm cleaning out the cupboards to make room for Holiday items. Until Monday evening buy any one item, get the second of equal or lesser value half off in my shop.

Stas the Barber

It had to happen. Doesn't nearly every child do this?

A couple days later I found his hair. In the crayon box. Apparently he put the scissors and hair "away".

He has class pictures in two weeks.

Cards, Cards, Cards

I'm in the process of adding more items to the shop and gearing up for the Holidays. I know, it's here already! Here is a sampling of some of the items going in now:





Tomorrow: Stasiu cut his own hair. Pictures to come...

It's Just Around the Corner...

Halloween, silly! Christmas is the next corner. There, on the left.




I'm starting to stock the shop with Halloween, Thanksgiving and autumnally themed cards. Go on, take a look. You know you love Halloween!
