What's new?

What's new? Oh, such a loaded question! Are you sure you are really wondering? If so, read on. You'll get a looooonnnnngggg answer. We have been busy!For starters, Spring is definitely here. The kids and I have planted a garden and they check their seeds and plants everyday. It has been in the 80's all week so it should really take off.
Maddie is playing softball and is having fun. I think 3 games a week plus practice is way too much of a commitment for 6 year olds. I certainly did NOT know what we were getting into. Lesson learned... It should wind down after we are done playing the rain make-up games.On the homefront, we have been working on my scrapbook room. (A little spring cleaning gone crazy!!!) The trim should be finished this weekend and then I'll just be putting it back together. What a project! It all started by me wanting to change the wall color. Now we have lots of new electrical, cabinets, desk, curtains, etc... It helps that my hubby is handy but I cannot believe I have made it 2 months with no "creative space." I am truly suffering! ;) Here are a couple sneak peaks:So, since we have been so busy we decided we needed a little day trip to be together as a family. We drove out to the desert to see the wild flowers in bloom. I think we were a little early in the season but this is what we found:This was also Max's first trip in the back pack. He loved being able to see everything from a new height.

The best of both worlds

Sometimes I feel like I have the best of both worlds: 2 wonderful kids AND the time to scrapbook them. Don't get me wrong....I am not bragging! I'm just feeling very grateful for what I have. I know the little time that I have now will come to a screaching halt as soon as little Max arrives but for now, I'm trying to keep creating and really appreciating the time I have with the kids. Life is great! Seize the day! Here's a new layout with them too:

Have a great weekend!

That's my girl!

Maddie just broke her first board and earned her yellow belt in Tung Su Do. She just loves the martial arts. This is one tough girl--and she's only 4 years old!

Here's a short, crappy quality video that Brentt's took from his phone.



That's my girl! Thanks for checking in and letting me share these proud moments.
Have a great weekend!
