Pay It Forward!

So, here's how this game works-the first 3 people to leave a comment on this post will receive, at some point during the year, a handmade gift from me. What it will be and when it will arrive is a total surprise! The catch is that you must participate as well. Before you leave your comment, write up a pay it forward post on your blog to keep the fun going (or be lazy and copy and paste like I did). Then come back, let me know you're going to play and sit back and anticipate the arrival of your gift!

I really love this idea. I love the thought of getting some sweet handmade surprise...and of being able to share some of my own sweet handmade surprises! A great start to my new creative career path!

Happy Valentines Day!

Thanksgiving Dinner

Our Thanksgiving dinner was fabulous. We had invited our friends David, Sara, and their three kids over for dinner. I put my pictures in backwards. So..Here is what our table looked like before we ate. Shawn and I both love to bake and cook. Shawn made pumpkin and apple pies and they were awesome!

Tanner made a small fruit tray with grapes, pineapple, and chocolate covered strawberries. This was really yummy!
Here is our decorated table before the food was added.


This is where I was dipping my strawberries. My little clothes line worked really well.

And here is a little center piece I assembled from a kit I had bought.

We were all stuffed like turkeys when it was all done. We had a wonderful time with out friends. Tanner had a blast playing with Kyla, Keston and Kaden. I think he was sleeping before his head hit the pillow.

Thanks, David, Sara, and Family for spending Thanksgiving with us.

Adventure Night

Washington School had adventure night for first and second graders. They had a bunch of fun things for them to do that the kids can not do during a regular school day.

Here Tanner is climbing on the centipede. You have to climb up the poles then climb across the net. Tanner did this one twice. He was a little bit afraid on the first try. But, the second try he climbed the pole and made it all the way across.

Tanner is climbing the rock wall. I think he is a little bit afraid if heights. He almost made it to the top.
This one here you climb to the top and back down again.

Tanner was struggling to get himself up this net. He finally made it up.

Here Tanner is climbing across the centipede net.

We all had a great time. Tanner loved this. This is right up his alley climbing on, up, and around things. He wants to do this again.

Have a great week!
