snow

We woke up this morning to a beautiful blanket of snow

the kids ran outside right away,

wanting to play in the snow

before the neighborhood kids came out to play

they all worked together to make a snowman,

with a few snowball fights mixed in

but try as they might to make a huge snowman,

their frozen little fingers got the best of them

so the scaled him down

just a little :)

big news

it feels like I haven't blogged in ages..........
We just got home from a trip to Southern Oregon, it was beautiful!
My DH went to canidate at a church to be their Senior Pastor, after service they voted him in { with NO no votes :) }. So at the end of February we will be packing up and moving.
The pastor that called us down there is renting us the second house on his property (43 acers) it comes wth a coop full of chickens and a veggie garden, there are also about 20 horses grazing on the pasture (for less than half of what we are paying now). My kids are in Heaven about moving to the country, and I am really excited that this little bitty town has a scrapbook store!!!!

I will update in a few weeks with some pics of the area

those baby blues

I have been trying for a really long time to get a close up of his baby blues

this what you gave me to work with

scripture challenge

This was the first week of the http://www.triplethescraps.blogspot.com/ scripture challenge

This weeks challenge was the word faith. Patter suggested reading Hebrews 11, the great faith chapter. Well, we are considering a move to a different state for my dh to take a Preaching job.

This state is one we always said, "we will NEVER move there"............don't ever say never to God! We of course have great reasons for not wanting to live in this state, but forgot one really important thing.....God's reasons are divine. So when reading Hebrews 11 one set of verses really struck me, I need to trust in God's providence and provison for my Familiy!

8 It was by faith that Abraham obeyed when God called him to leave home and go to another land that God would give him as his inheritance. He went without knowing where he was going. 9 And even when he reached the land God promised him, he lived there by faith—for he was like a foreigner, living in tents. And so did Isaac and Jacob, who inherited the same promise. 10 Abraham was confidently looking forward to a city with eternal foundations, a city designed and built by God. Hebrews 11:8-11

too "mask" fun

Last month while at a friends house the kids had a ball playing with these crazy masks

And my friend had tons of fun take pics of them being silly

I love this title, it is so much prettier in person!

I started with Heidi swap ghost letters, outlined them on the back side with gold glitter glue

and then stitched them on the page with red floss

the circles are also ghost shapes, sewed on in orange

the felt flower was attached with teal floss

I don't always have the time to put this much detail into a Lo
but love the results when I do

attack of the scallops....

Living Hallelujah

I love this song!

I really want to scrap it, just need to find the right pic

Living Hallelujah

Who am I?
That You came to earth for me
To die on a tree?
Who are you?
Son of man, Son of God
Yes, I believe it's true
More than words I bring to You
May all I say and may all I do be

Hallelujah, hallelujah
May everything about me be
Hallelujah to my King
Hallelujah, hallelujah
May everything about me be hallelujah

All of me
I surrender completely
Take control
I want all of You
So I'm letting go

I am healed and I'm forgiven
I am free because I'm living

Hallelujah, hallelujah
May everything about me be
Hallelujah to my King
Hallelujah, hallelujah
May everything about me be hallelujah


It's all so clear, it's all so clear
I was born to worship

Hallelujah, hallelujah
May everything about me be hallelujah

A Charlie Brown Christmas

Merry Christmas!!!!

The land of Ornaments

I would have never thought that making little gifts for friends

could be so much fun!

The birds were hand cut from Tagboard and then covered

with Scrapworks PP

The snowflakes are Cosmo Cricket chipboard

Crackle painted with a red base and

backed with Scrapworks PP

It was really heart warming to have a friend truly LOVE

a gift because of the thought and effort that went into it

I am completely converted, I will for now on make

handmade gifts for Special friends!

Walking in a scrapbook wonderland

Walking in a scrapbook wonderland!

Shakers rattle, are you listenin'?

In the aisle, beads are glistenin'!

A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight!

Walking in a scrapbook wonderland!

Gone away is my money

Here to stay's my croppin' buddy!

We're singing a song, as we shop along

Walking in a scrapbook wonderland!

In the workroom we can build a layout

Using diecuts, punches, fibers too!

We'll have lots of fun making our layout

And they have just the right shade of Bazzill blue!

Later on, we'll conspire

As we crop by the fire

To bring all our pics and our hermafix

Walking in a scrapbook wonderland

In the workroom we can build a layout

With our eyelets, stickers, tags and brads.

We'll have lots of fun making a layout!

All those patterned papers make me glad!

When we crop, ain't it thrillin',

Though the shop's makin' a killin'?

We'll frolic and play the Scrapbooking way
