Snow, snow, and photos


Well, we have already added another inch to the 3 we had last night... and there are 3-4 more inches still coming. Yikes! Welcome to January in the Midwest. I am certainly hoping that it all comes now and not in 2 weeks when I am supposed to fly to California for CHA. I REALLY do not want that flight to be delayed. At least my transfer is in Dallas, so not too likely to be delayed by 12 inches of snow there. :)

In the meantime, I am busy working on projects for Your Scrapbook Stash. I got some very yummy goodies in the mail yesterday and I have already completed one project. You can expect to see some things showing up here on my blog soon.

And.... I am on the YSS Blog today too. :)

Over at Couture Cardstock, we are busy preparing for CHA. We have a new release coming soon, and dozens of amazing cards, layouts, and altered items (think high fashion!) for the booth. I think we will be showing off some of the booth projects on our blog during the show, so you will want to hang around to catch that, if you aren't going to make it to the show to see them in person, that is. :)

On a personal note, we are all doing pretty well. We have started back into the preschool routine after the holidays and we are studying patterns, order (1st, 2nd, 3rd) and of course handwriting and some basic math and phonics. Milena is a fast learner, and for the most part likes school.

Elijah is a constant ball of 2-year-old energy and really misses being outside for 3 hours a day like he did all summer long. I miss him being outside all the time too! I am constantly on the lookout for new ways of burning off some extra energy indoors, so make sure you leave me any tips you have!

Here are a few new photos, take right before Christmas:





Thanks for reading!

Your children are adorable. Some ideas to relieve engery- How about turning on some music and let them dance to their hearts content.
It is even cold in the south.
Keep warm.
Take care.

your children are beautiful! Burning extra energy is always a challenge with little ones in teh winter. I used to take mine to the mall during the day and I would let them run from one end to the other. During the week, the mall is pretty quiet.
