busy busy

been busy these past few weeks with school winding down and all. our last day is thursday!

this little cutie came to visit us last week! this is my niece jadyen, who is almost 8 months old. she's adorable and i just want to kiss those cheeks all the time!bryan.....he's been so clumsy lately. he has a new boo boo every other day! i should buy stock in band-aid!

brandon's been having so many activities in his school these last days of school. here are a few pics of his field day. waiting to play musical chairs...

having a good time with his school mates!


getting from one end to the other in his own style!made this card for a special someone. CAS, sweet and simple.


brandon has been taking swimming lessons for almost 2 years now. here is brandon with his swim teacher, thomas. their pesonalities mesh nicely. they are both silly and clown around. like when i asked if i could get a picture of both of them. thomas held brandon like a baby....i dunno whose idea that was!this card i made for the front desk manager at his swim place. he is leaving to go to med school so we wanted to send him off with a congrats card.


i foolishly volunteered to help fill up 100 water balloons for brandon's water party at school to celebrate the end of the school year. i had them popping in my face! and my thumbs REALLY hurt! they're raw and swollen!

and i counted all the balloons....... 143!!!! not 100 but 143!!!! if i had known..........

thanks for stopping by!

She does have the sweetest, pudgiest cheeks ever, too cute! Hope you'll get to see her more often in the summer! You are so good at making cards and thinking of every single person in your life, amazing!
