Savannah's Birthday

Summer seems like a long time ago with all the snow we have had. I was going through pictures and thought I would post these of her birthday. I need to have a picture of the invitation also. I used the lamb theme, since my mom calls all her grandchildren her "little lambs." Here's the cute one year old after everyone made their own pizza....

The treat boxes...


The table...
The cupcakes for the kids...

And the cake for the birthday girl!
It was a darling cake, but a one year old can make quick work of all of that!!

Random Organization.....

I am afraid these first couple of posts are going to random and a little unorganized....only because I am trying to find pictures of things I made and get them on the blog to be able to eventually make some assemblence of order.
For instance, the Happy Birthday banner I made for Eleanor's 4th birthday party...

The mouse costume I made for Xander 10 years ago and Savannah wore it this year after going through several cousins....
And we cannot forget the tutu the princess, Eleanor, wore for Halloween this year...
Eventually I should be able to find the business I started with some friends, "The Last Word" and find all the cute pictures we took of our open houses that we did.
For now, at least, I am in the mode to organize and figure out where everything is. I will have to post some pictures of the beginnings of Xander's room redo. Craig's list and I are B.E.S.T. friends and his room is going to be so much better than it is right now!!!

It's been a L.O.N.G. time.....

I started this blog to input creative ideas and organize my thoughts.....as you can tell, all these thoughts and ideas are STILL running through my head and not in this blog. Since we have been in a major east coast snow storm for the last few days/weeks, I have discovered the world of blogging....uh,oh!
I happened upon one blog and then found 300! There are some seriously creative and amazing people out there...and they blog about it! Just like what I wanted to do almost 6 months ago when I created this blog. So now, all of you awesome bloggers have inspired me to get my act together and blog about what I've made and what I've done and what I love.
How many millions of crafts have I made and not taken a picture!?!?? Well, I will try and start today and be more diligent. I will put my thoughts on the computer and post pictures. It will help me be more organized and let my creative juices flow.
I am amazed at some who blog almost daily! Wow! I can't promise that...four children, two home businesses and daily life happenings....I have to prioritize.
Anyway, I need not ramble. I am excited. I am going to follow the dream I started almost six months ago. Yippppeeee! Here I go!
