Update:

Ok... I know I freely admit my slacker-ness everytime I blog.. because I'm obviously horrible and keeping up with it. BUT.. i'm determined to start back up again and get going. so mark my words- I'll keep posting.

just a fast catch up- both my boys had birthdays in June, had fun at each. they got lots of good things to play with outside (since we now have a yard and all). Kayleb even got a bike- ask me if he knows how to ride it yet... yah. nope. lol

so here's Kaylebs bday- turned 7.

Then Jayce turned 2 just a week and a half later (and yes... complete with cheesy grin):

and then we had a fun fourth of July- celebrated with a BBQ with friends and did some small fireworks in the driveway. and of course I had to play with the camera and get these AWESOME pics of the sparklers and fireworks.

fun right?

and then- I FINALLY got my Etsy shop up and running!! If you're my friend on FB, you've prob. seen some posts.. but if you haven't seen what my latest escapade is- check it out here.

and if THAT isn't enough, I do have my latest scheme in the works. this one makes me more excited than anything i've done so far. And I know.. ya'll are probably thinking I'm crazy for doing so much. let me explain:

see... Utah is craft central. I see, I love, I learn. Problem is... EVERYONE AND THEIR DOG DOES TOO!!! So I love my photorgaphy, everyone here does it. I love the beading, everyone here does it. I love the crocheting, everyone here does it. So what on this planet CAN I do here that I can possibly succeed in that no one else does? well... there in lies my next scheme!! :D

you'll see soon enough- hopefully within a week. And it's not totally new, but def. exciting. so stay tuned!! - and I promise.. I'll be updating a lot and such, I have too much to show and tell :)

toodles!
