Dark Pink Gel Pen Lowercase

I just started reading Breaking Dawn again.  I forgot how much I really love this book.  My book club agreed to 3 chapters a week so we finish the week before the preimere but that is going to be really hard to stop after just 3 chapters a week.  Anyone else excited about Breaking Dawn Part 1?  Follow me on my blog for topics of discussion about each chapter.  It's going to be fun!
Oh I was so excited I almost forgot.  Here is your freebie!

Breaking Dawn



This week is the kickoff week for reading Breaking Dawn again before the movie releases November 18!  Twi-Mama's and Bob are reading 3 chapters a week which means we will have time to discuss all the details and be finished the weekend before the preimere.  It feels like it has been forever since I have read it so I am very excited reading it again and having time to discuss with my Twi-Peeps!  After reading chapters 1 and 2 I think I need to design a shirt that says My Happy Place. Check out the other designs I have done that you can get in my Etsy store.  Buy one digital file and you can make as many iron on transfer shirts you want.  Perfect surprise for all your friends who are getting together to watch.

Pork Skins

I'll be the first to admit that since starting low carb lifestyle these are the last things I would snack on. But I found this flavor that I actually like and has become my go to snack. A little spicy and a little sweet with zero carbs. If you follow a low carb lifestyle and have not been able to stand the taste of Pork Skins give this a try.

Dark Pink Glitter Gel Pen Alpha Uppercase

I used to use the glitter glue paint all the time to write on my shirts and pillowcases.  It was so much fun to see my handwriting in a sparkly beautiful color.  This will make a perfect addition to your scrapbooking to add a little sparkle.

Inspiring Others

I have never felt like anything I have done would be considered inspirational.  I just do what I love and look for new ideas to expand on it.  I talked to my sister last night which was nice.  We have been talking more lately than we ever have.  She lives in California and I am in Texas and with the time difference and our schedules it just isn't easy to find time that fits for both of us.  I am glad to say that we have finally found that time or maybe we just finally made the time.  Talking with her last night she said that I have inspired her husband to get crafty.  Now not that he wasn't already a bit crafty but he has taken to the next level.  She shared some pictures of the things he has been doing in his spare time and I was amazed.  It felt good to see him branch out and take on something new and it made me smile to know that I was a small part of that with just a little inspiration.

Me and Mom

We had such a great time.

Surprise visit with Mom

I surprised my mom when I met her today to pickup my niece and nephew.  She was expecting my brothers girlfriend so when she got out of the car and saw me she nearly fainted.  We had a great time catching up over lunch and I so did not want our time to end.  But she needed to get on the road and get home and I need to get the kids home.  It was hard to leave and I know it was just as hard for her.  We just don't see each other often enough.  I love you mom and miss you!

Lots of orders

Brotherhood not by JR Ward

We just recently started watching a series called Brotherhood.  I would see it in the TV guide listing and it always made me think of Black Dagger Brotherhood by JR Ward series which I love!  This is nothing like the Vampire brothers but a great series.  Good brother bad brother corruption mobsters and killing.  Can't get much better than that.  Well unless they were all a bunch of Vampire of course.

Monday Mishaps

Some days it seems like the stars are aligned and you get so much done but today it seems like one star dropped out of sync and nothing is going as planned.  It's like watering the yard you get everything in it's place to cover every inch of the grass and turn the water on and you realize you have a kink in your hose.  One that you can't just unkink yourself you have to wait for someone to do it for you.  I have not time or patience for waiting.

Nursery Room Wall Art

My sister wanted something special for a friend and asked me to put something together that would have her birthdate, weight and length but pastel subtle colors.  I just love how this turned out and so did she.  If you are intersted you can order one personalized for that special new baby boy or girl in my Etsy store here.
