Feeling crafty

My good friend Becky came over today and taught me how to make these ADORABLE hair bows! She is so talented and I am so grateful for crafty friends who can teach me fun new things! We had so much fun together and I am obsessed with making them now! The best part is that you go through your little girls wardrobe and pick out the outfits or dresses you want to make matching bows for! What a concept.  I am still mastering my skills and cannot claim all the bows made below.  I am excited to keep this up and provide Jade with an amazingly large bow selection that's fancy, frilly and fun! 

Thank you Becky!

Becky made these ones to match Jade's shirt.

She also made this one for St. Patrick's Day!

These ones are my favorite -I think. I made the bottom one (you can tell).

Becky whipped up these ones too..... love them!

She was really fast and spoiled Jade, making so many cute bows! I can't wait for her to wear them!

Okay, finally some that I made!! This was my best one of the day.

I made these ones also. It was so fun picking out all the ribbon, lace, and buttons to match the clothes! 

I am so excited that I learned how to do this, and that I really enjoyed it to! Having a little girl is so much fun!!!

A night with Celine!

Hearing Celine Dion live is way better than on any CD! Your right Regan, she was amazing! Can I just tell you how great our seats were! They were right by a part of the stage she would walk out on and you can see from the pictures just how close we were! It was such an incredible night, she did not let us down.  It was the best (delayed) anniversary present ever! 

An enormous stage....... with very talented dancers.

This lady's got some moves!

"Cause I'm your Lady.... and you are my man." Love you babe! xoxo

Extraction.

Meet Mr. Brave. After biting into corn on the cob last night his bottom tooth became really loose. I told him he could just wait and let it fall out on it's own, or that Dad could pull it out right now. He said he wanted to have it snapped out (that's what he called it). So Scott found some pliers and went to work! Kael didn't even question what Scott was doing and he didn't even flinch. He was so brave and felt so big losing his first tooth!

Kael was very excited for the tooth fairy to come last night!

Here he is holding his tooth, what a kid!

Karson was so upset that he didn't get his tooth out! He cried for 30 minutes begging us to do it. It was hilarious!

New "time out" spot?

 Very Tempting. 

They thought this was so fun and wanted to jump off on to our bed from up there!

Little monkeys!

Damage done

Broken, ripped, trashed, dirty, dented, and damaged.  These are the words that describe what happens when you put anything and my boys in the same room. I thought it was just a phase, and that it soon would pass. I'm afraid I was wrong, and that I am in for the long hall with these two knuckleheads. Here is a list of things that they have trashed in the last 2 weeks, I'm sure I'm going to want a record of this someday.

Ripped off all border wall- paper in the play room, along with some paint.

Threw baseballs through the insulation in the basement (about 30 holes found so far)

Broke the metal bars on the trampoline (the ones that hold the net, they broke the net months ago)

Roped and pulled over trees in the front yard (small ones obviously)

Broke race track, bean bag game, and tent they got for Christmas.

Engraved all over the playroom table.

Lifted the counter top off of the island in the kitchen (must not have been on very well)

Broke their DVD player

That is all that came to mind right away, I'm sure there was much more.

My conclusion: WE NEED TO LIVE ON A FARM. In an old house, with lots of animals, and barns. As soon as possible really.
