Too Inspired, must shut out ideas

I haven't posted in 6 days! Well one reason is the Art & Espresso this past weekend and the other is, I'm taking a photography class online. It's called Eye Candy Workshops. Above is my 1st assignment. Take a picture of something that most represents you past present or future. Can't get more represent'n than the above! It's a very basic and not very exciting picture but it shows who I am (sort of) and I needed it to be blurry in the background (we're messing around with aperture's, etc.)
If you're name is Steve M. don't look at the above picture! My brother-in-law is a fire fighter in Sacramento and collects cool fire related stuff. I found this on etsy and just think it's the funniest thing ever! I got it for his birthday next year.

How simple would it be to make these coasters?? And I like that they are each a different color so you're guests know who's is who's. It's from this seller on etsy. They would make good stocking stuffers, no?


I love these Christmas pillows and think they too would be easy to make. I forgot to note the seller on etsy. I hate when I do that! Sorry etsy seller:(



And I really want to make or buy this little note pad for Emily!!

Art & Espresso

This weekend (Thursday thru Saturday) is our Art & Espresso Event!
It's like a cool craft fair, indoors and with espresso!
Below is SOME of the cinnamon ornaments Mary A. will be selling and the rest is stuff I will have there. Of course I will always take orders through my blog:) Hope to see every one there!

The day after




The couch at the Swabian that we always take a picture on.


Before we left for the bar.

All us girls from work.

Messing around outside. Kelly took these.





Emily & Ava Trick-or-Treating. Ava was really good. Didn't really shy away from people. She would take the candy handed to her and put it in her bag and she only wanted to hold Jon's finger while we were walking.










Ava licked and gummed every piece of candy in her bag after we got home (seriously).

On this day...


On this day 8 years ago....


We were married...
by my father and in front of our family and friends in my parents house.


My Uncle Rusty walked me down the aisle..

My friend Devin made his own costume..


I made my nieces costume (along with 6 others, 'cause that's how I roll)...

Devin made this beautiful cake (or is that Boo-tiful?)

And we lived happily ever after...:)
**I know I showed some pictures of our wedding last year but....
