Pinterest Inspiration

Here's two more ideas I got off pinterest. The first is this fingerprint tree.

 So then I saw this digi kit on Jessica Spragues "one buck Wednesday" (completely forgetting that this pin had a link to a free one) and thought the tree was perfect for this and it was $1!! So I printed it out to fill an 8.5x11 piece of paper and printed it on card stock. I had the girls choose which color stamp the wanted and told them they could only use that color so when looking at it you knew who's little prints were who's.

 The 2nd project is this Halloween garland. I printed it in black ink (just the outline) on black cardstock. Because printers don't print in white:) But the black showed up enough for Emily to cut this out. She wanted it above my bed.



pinterest + me = love

I saw this print on pinterest and had to have it. It goes perfect in my room, right? Here's more from this guy's series.

And whilst browsing pinterest, I found this and really really laughed out loud. I LOL'd! Oh my god and this one! Emily just did this earlier and I of course had to say that's why I tell you to pick them up! I actaully don't wish that on anyone. Ok, one more.

When I was at my sister-in-laws house I saw these cookies on crafterhours. I might have thrown my computer, knocked over one of my kids and pushed wheel-chair-bound Grammie out of the way trying to get to the store to buy the ingredients. I might have done that. And smacked a baby and shaken a kitten.... These cookies are that good people! They consist of just two ingredients: Oreos and pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough in the toob. You wrap the Oreos in the cookie dough (not the easiest thing to do) cook for about 10-11 minutes at 350 degrees. Sooo soo good. The really cool thing about these is two-fold (did I use that right?) : you get two cookies in one and because the dough is premade you can cook two a night like I do:)  Or when at my sister-in-laws I would take orders after dinner and make that many.  

 Random photos of me with my girls at Uncle Steve's fire house. I know lots of moms have the problem where you are never in any photos because no one ever thinks to stop and take one of you! When we travel I have to make Jon (Hi Jon) take photos of me and the girls so they know I was there:)

As you can see blogger and I are friends again. I had to upload one photo at a time and to Picasa 1st. And to answer Kelly's question from the comments of my last post, I always have to upload to Picasa 1st now that we live here but I couldn't even do that yesterday.

One more thing. We're potty training here.

And FYI, I will be throwing out my living room carpets in a month or two.
