*Butterflies*

I bit the bullet and purchased one of these the other day....



Next year you'll see me (hopefully if I'm accepted-lol) in a few art fairs around here!! Ever since I was little my mom would drag me around to art fairs and festivals and I thought it would be the COOLEST to be one of those artists sitting in their tent with their stuff on show....

So to get to this point is very exciting to me-yet twists my stomach in knots!

Been busy...

Well, yet another summer is coming to a close. Everyone's outside as much as possible trying to soak up every moment before heading back to school in just over a week. I can't believe it went by so fast! Even worse: I can't believe I have a 3rd grader!! Gabe still needs to do his pre-K testing to see if he'll be accepted into preschool...

As you can see-the entire front sidewalk in front of our house is covered with sidewalk paint...there is even more behind where I was sitting...
A new way to use stencils...make chains!
Figuring out some new tricks...ouch!


I'm thinking maybe once school starts I'll be able to finally get around to working with my new photo tent, get some good pictures and get some things posted on etsy.

Future fireman?

Boy did Gabey have fun tonite! We had our annual neighborhood night out tonite and the guys at the firehouse a few streets over always come by.



The kids have fun exploring the truck and spraying the hose. Gabe ended up being their little buddy-choosing to stay with them instead of going to eat ice cream with the other kids so he got a few extra priviledges-getting an extra spray with the hat on and getting to sit in the drivers seat!



He remembers these firemen! At the beginning of summer we had walked to Baskin Robbins one night after dinner. They pulled up in the lot and started to go inside but when they saw his jaw hanging open and going on and on about the firetruck they zipped over and offered for him to jump in the truck right then!



I'm sure I'll still be hearing all about this tomorrow. :)
