Just Buzzin' By

I made these cards with the stamp set "Just Buzzin' By" which is in the new catalog, I think it is super cute!

Tomorrow's the day

I can't wait for tomorrow, and the unveiling of the new Stampin' Up! Spring/Summer 2009 Idea Book & Catalog.

I have them already! Oh how I wish I could show you, but you must wait!

Today, I tried to photograph some pottery, it turned out terrible. You can't see the wonderful browns of the crock, and the awesome blues in the bowl. My niece Carmen who lives in Grandview, is quite the artist with clay. I only had one piece, the utensil crock, but for Christmas, my mother in law gave me a wonderful high edge plate with a bowl connected to the center for dip. It is so pretty IRL and it matches my Denby China so nicely.

Check out my SU site tomorrow to see the new catty on line, if you want a real copy, let me know and I will get one to ya. And, remember, Sale-A-Bration is only a few weeks away.....free stamps......gotta love that!

Science Project

Brock had to make a "animal cell model" for science class. His Dad helped him, and they worked on it for a few hours. I am so glad Bill is good at these things, trust me it wouldn't had looked near this cool if I was helping him. They scavenged the kitchen a bit, the flower beds for bark and even one of the fish tackle box's! I think they did a great job.

Help me out here

After looking at these big, white, very badly painted cabinets for 13 years, they are going to get a make-over. The question is what color? I want bold color, but it freaks me out at the same time. I thought I was being daring when we painted the inside of the house a pink tint white! So, let the ideas fly, visuals would be greatly appreciated.
We were talking about why we haven't ever done anything with the kitchen, we never came up with an answer.
I also want to paint that back wall with the window a bold color.

Homework

Paige needed to make a home made dish for Home Economics. She picked the dairy group and wanted to make Mac and Cheese. The problem here is that she had to work tonight from 5:30 pm to 10 pm, and had to take the Mac and cheese to school tomorrow morning. This momma is no where awake at 10 pm... can you see where this is headed?

Anyway I hope I , I mean, Paige gets a good grade on the Mac and Cheese she slaved over, and I hope the teacher doesn't read our blog. In all fairness, I will add that it wasn't totally painless for Paige, as I wasn't real thrilled to get the news on my way home from work tonight!

What is up with this fever?

Well after 3 days of fevers going up to 103.4, for the past two days Brock's temp is almost normal during the day and then goes up to 101.something in the evening. ARGG. During the day, the poor kitties have been the outlet to his boredom. Poor kitties. The sheet Brock has around himself, I put on him early into the fever when he was very hot and wanted a blanket. He has grown to love it in the past 5 days!

And a little love from his Tuffy!

Not so happy new year :(

We have a sick boy.
Brock has been running a high fever up to 103.4, and sore throat since New Years Eve. Plus the poor kid is getting 2 side by side molars and the respective baby teeth are still hanging in there. Not Great. Ibuprofen brings it down a tad, but it is still going back up to up to over 103. We visited the on-call Doc today. (His Dr and staff are off, who do those people think they are anyway??????)
Rapid strept was neg, so looks like he has a nasty virus.
