Hey ya'll!

I wanted to share a little something with you tonight.

My cousin Kathy is having a baby! Congrats Kathy & Dave!

Although I am VERY happy for them and know they will make great parents I'm a little upset w/ them because they did not find out the gender of the baby. They want it to be a "surprise". GRR, LOL!

It seems that in this day it is SO hard to find anything that is gender neutral, even if it's "neutral" it seems to have a gender feel about it. Well, I was able to find the cutest ducky hooded towels and I had to make a card to match of course.

Isn't it cute? The front says "Welcome little one" and the inside says "Babies are God's opinion that the world should go on"

I love how I was able to match hemp to the buttons. So fun.

I also made a little tag blanket.

It's so soft and cuddly. It's 12x12 and I'm sure little what's its name will love it.

:)

I'm remembering 9/11/01 today and watching documentary after documentary and the images seem just as shocking to me today, 10yrs & a million replays over, as they did on that horrible day. I'm so grateful for our country and our military.

Thank you Lord for protecting us in spite of our actions against you as a country.

Keep Kreating &

Never Forget,

Erin

Another Back To School Project

I have already gone back to school. My first day was 8/29 and so far I am passing all my classed w/ flying colors. :)

My kids go back to school on Wednesday (9/7) and they are both looking forward to it. My son Jason will be in Kindergarten this year and the big exciting thing for the kindergarteners is that they get to eat lunch in the cafeteria and not the classroom. My daughter Jaelyn is going into 1st grade this year and the exciting thing for her is that she will have a new teacher (Mrs. Donato) new to Discovery AND her classroom is on the 2nd floor this year.

Ah, the simple things in life....

Well, I do everything I can to catch the cheap back to school sales for any and all of their supplies. In doing so we end up w/ the simple things. Plain blue notebooks, solid colored folders, boring binders. BORING? Did someone say boring? Well, NOT if I can help it. I took my son's "boring binder" and made it into an original, one of a kind, just for him binder.

It's not much but it will definitely not be anything like any of his friends.

I hope you and your children are all enjoying your back to school time. (More time to craft right moms?)

I made a gorgeous new Autumn banner for my mantel I will be sharing w/ you probably sometime over the weekend.

Have a great Labor Day

Keep Kreating,

Erin
