one more new lo before i go to bed.

this was a fun lo to do...

wow, i havent written in over a week. its been such a busy one. teaching alot and a slumber party on friday night. that was so much fun! we watched beauty and beast. i wasnt sure if colin would like it but he really seemed to. it's a bit girly at times, but he liked the little cup "chip" and the candle holder "luminear". he did not like the wolves or the bad guy. it really is a cute movie.

connie sent me a card for lucey. it was the sweetest thing ever, she's such a wonderful friend. i just found out today, that last week she had to put zoee, her black lab to sleep. it was exactly 10 days after lucey. so sad. zoee was 10 years old and had lung cancer. i feel so bad for connie and i can sympathize, especially now. it's such a difficult thing to loose a loved pet.

spent today with colin, played, did a little cleaning. i vacuumed the porch and so did colin (with the toy vacuum) too cute! we tidied up a bit b/c new boy starts tomorrow.

i finished my column at naptime. it's due on Thursday and i am usually such a procrastinator. i didnt want to do it after teaching for 3 days. bleech!! it needs a tiny bit of tweeking, i have to call we b to see if they carry the product that i mentioned but overall it's done!!

fifth grade tomorrow...

here are a couple of pages of lucey's album. i love this prima embossed album!!

here's the video from colin's b-day party 2 weekends ago...too cute

today we went to pick colin up around 9ish. then we went over to elden and i brought some cookies. after that colin and i played on the playground, he's really good. running all around and climbing on all kinds of things. im so proud of him, my sweet dolly!!

after that we came home and met nonni. we played for a while then erica took him up to watch burger meister (his fave). i went up at 2pm and fell asleep for 2 hours...i couldnt believe it. ive been so tired lately and its been hard to sleep. i guess i just needed the rest.

tomorrow we have 3 interview for some new kids here at honey bear. erica wants 4 kids enrolled, thats pleanty for her to handle on her own.

here are a few more lo's ive done over the past few weeks. i love the cricut! ive gotten three new cartridges. paper doll dress up, zoobaloo and happily ever after. i don't know which is my favorite at the moment.

i created a layout last night using zoobaloo cricut cartridge. it was so much fun to make. this is such a versatile cartridge. it has the cute font and all the wonderful animal shapes. plus it has some phrases, backgrounds and theme shapes...love it.



it's been two day since my sweet lou went to heaven. it is still very hard and im so sad. im trying to work through the saddness but it floods over me in waves...

up bright and early this am to get going on the cellar. im going to take some photos today, it's looking so good. im hoping we'll be finished today. there was so much stuff down there, it boggles my mind how we accumulated so much stuff! im glad it's all going. id like to throw away even more stuff.

im going to put a few things on craigs list. the preschool chairs, grandma's head board and a few more things. ive never used craigs list before but rita @ st. paul's has. and she says it's great!!

here are a few things ive been working on...

i finished the st john's newsletter today and put up a blog for fr. o'brien.

today i asked heather if we could have a slumber party tonite. she said yes! it was so fun. colin is such a doll. he's been fooling around with erica for the last 1 1/2 hours. i think he may just be asleep now.

today was the party!!

we had such a great time!! colin loved his knights!! he played with them all morning.

here are a few more knights, princesses and princes...

i worked a full day at elden in kindergarten. those kids kept me movin!! tomorrow is only 1/2 day. that will be nice, when i get home i have to assemble and frost colin's castle cake. im really looking forward to it and his party.
