Happy List


It's that time of week again! Time to link up with the ever-fabulous Mamarazzi and share some happy!

Having nice enough weather that we could take Monkey to the park this week definitely brought some happy.



Having this girl all to myself while the other kids are at school has made this a very happy year. This week we've had lots of time vegging on the couch while we recover from the Portland Plague together.


I'm happy to have my other 3 children involved in things that enrich their lives, and help them develop their talents. Currently we have Cowgirl and Pixie starting spring soccer. Cowgirl is excelling at her piano lessons, and Pixie is getting ready to start. Bookworm is continuing to develop his talent with the violin. He has a big state-wide Junior Concerto/Solo Federation that he is performing in next Saturday. He will be judged, and is very nervous! He also was selected to be on the graphic design team that is designing the T-shirts for our school's Pedal's for Hope bike-riders this year.

My hot pink glitter toes make me happy. Can't wait to be able to wear footwear that shows them off all the time!


Being surrounded by beautiful mountains makes me all kinds of happy. I love that I can look in pretty much any direction and be greeted with a sight like this:


What makes you happy? Head on over to Mama's and link up!

Your view is incredible! I enjoy the Blue Ridge Mountains around here but it's nothing compared to the Rockies. Wow!

Love you glitter toes. Hope you continue to have good weather so that you can show them off!

I love that picture of you Monkey {that's Monkey right} she looks nothing less than thrilled to be all cuddled up with her Mommy!

Nothing beats freshly painted toes and those Mountains are just gorgeous! I couldn't handle the cold that goes with them though.

I love all these things!
Your kids are freakin' talented. I don't have mine signed up for anything!
That speaks more to MY laziness than their lack of talent. LOL

Minus the inversion right? LOL! When we were in Utah, I missed my mountains. Mt. Rainer and Mt. Baker. Now that we are in Portland, I love seeing Mt. Hood and on a good day Mt. St. Helens. To me, those are mountains. LOL!

I can't wait till I get down to one kid at home. Wait, who am I kidding. I can't wait until ALL my kids are in school!

Warm weather is a blast! We've had it too and have loved playing outside! Bring it on spring! I'm waiting for you!!

Love the picture with you and your daughter. When I first moved to Utah from the Midwest I was just blown away by the mountains. They looked like some fake backdrop

I almost forgot how pretty the mountains can be!
Glad you're starting to feel better! I can't wait until next year when it'll be just Boo and I at home. I don't even remember what it's like to have only one kid at home...
What'll I do with myself?

Hand Made for Fall - A party and a Giveaway!

I've been a busy girl! I have been wanting to do a giveaway for Fall, and when my fab friend Heidi revealed that her Monthly Craft Challenge for October would be Fall-themed crafts, I thought "YES! I will do a giveaway of Fall items - handmade by me!" So today I'm linking up with Heidi , and introducing my Handmade For Fall Giveaway as I show you what I've made for Heidi's party ! Sound good? First, a while back I showed you some coasters that I made, but it was clear back when I first started blogging, so I'm going to show you again with this new seasonal set! This idea has been floating around blog land, and I've seen several different variations. Here's how I do it. You will need: paper napkins, 4x4 ceramic tiles, 4x4 cork squares, MOD PODGE (what else?), sponge brushes (not shown), and polyurethane (not shown). Start by cutting your napkin down to a manageable size, slightly bigger than your tile. Next spread a layer of mod podg onto the t
