Speaking of fun, I'll be back real soon with some craftiness including some new things in the works and also my last projects for Mosh Posh. Stay tuned for lots of fun stuff and as always a little inspo and the drama that goes with this Party of Five...

A Guestie...

SO, whatcha doin? SO, what's new? SO, wondering what I've been up to? SO, want in on my little secret? SO, want to know about a sweet little kit club? SO, want to know what club I've been asked to Guest Design for?

Alright, alright enough with the subtle, corny hints. It's Simply Obsessed (get it? SO?, Simply Obsessed?). Heather is the owner over there and she puts together some wonderful kits. You can check them out here: http://www.simplyobsessed.com/. I have this wonderful kit in my hot little hands. I'll be posting my work here and Heather will be sharing it over at the Simply Obsessed Blog .


Here's a little ditty I put together for a challenge over at Scrapbook.com. Check it...




Later Gator...

Gobble Gobble

As much as I lurve the world of blogdom, nothing bugs me more than checking in on someone and finding they haven't updated in eons. With that said, I will stop here long enough to share that I am happily buried in birthdays, to do lists, Thanksgiving preparations and visits from my Family <3, and countless scrappy deadlines. In fact, I have some BIG news that I can finally share with you on the 1st of December. Here are some recent scrappy pages. I'll be back soon to catch up. Happy Turkey Day Sweet Friends.

I. Make. Stuff. {Another Mosh Posh Blog Hop}


I make stuff. I always have. When I was small I was constantly crafting. I mean it, constantly. My mom still has all of the little pictures/things I made her. She saved them just like I save all of these treasures from Julia and Reagan. I used to make my own stickers with a bottle of Elmer's and some markers. One Saturday morning while feverishly crafting in front of the cartoons, I even stapled my own foot. Don't ask. Can you imagine my poor parents waking up to that?!?
I have so many paper and glue ideas spinning in my head that my Crafty To do List is almost longer than my Household one. I thought I would take you all on a trip down Memory Lane. These are some of the non-traditional scrapbooking projects I've created here at Mosh Posh during my tenure. If you have any questions please post them here in the comments section. I'd be happy to share my ideas with you. Happy Scrappin. I mean Happy Craftin...








I think this one may be my favorite...








Or maybe this one... That is, until the Twinnies tried to eat it.


Be sure to visit the other girl's blogs...

Grande Pumpkin Spice Frappucino Light with Whip and an Extra Shot, please

Sooo, just a quicky because I simply can not forget what these days are like. And because I must share this layout of Julia and her friend. Sooo, when I go anywhere, I go with the twinnies strapped into a stroller and never, EVER let them free. Can you even imagine running around with 2 lively toddlers who have the gall to have minds of their own?!?

Sooo, I started my Monday with a quick trip to FiveBucks for a coffee so I could breeze through the playroom, the twins room, the kitchen, and putting ALL of the laundry away back at the house. Since the Bigs are in school, I've been letting the twins run quick errands sans stroller. A coffee qualifies as an easy learning experience, right? We unloaded and headed in. Sassy on my right, and well, I thought why not let Sassy and Sullivan hold hands? So, off we went. I let go once we were inside and there they stood hand-in-hand, chatting away. All of the patrons and baristas cooed over their sweetness. I was the first to tell them "They're not that cute, you should see their room" (remind me to tell you what they did to their dresser). They never let go of each other and we headed back to the car. All the while I'm praising them for doing such an amazing job. Walking like big kids, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Yep, you guessed it. They bolted. He to the left and she to the right. The girls at Starbucks on Main are getting a Shout Out from me for replacing my caffeine free of charge. Soo, if you saw some hopped up seagulls in Suffolk today, you know why...
