Christmas wreath!!

Hey Friends!!! I was in a crafty mood this past weekend... so of course I made something!! First of all, I hit a killer sale at Michael's! I'll just say that I got all of my items for less than $8! I was very proud of myself... considering a thing of 100 sheets of paper originally cost $12, so I basically got the paper for free! I had a coupon and was able to stack that on top of all of the great sales! Anyway... I made this wreath that I am very very proud of!
Supplies:
2 sheets of red card stock
2 sheets of green card stock
Pearl stickers
Stamp pads
Tape
Foam (one big piece)
Ribbon

How to:
I traced stars on the paper, then I drew lines on the back from each point to the opposite side. Taking a ruler I folded the stars so that it came to a point. Then I rubbed a stamp pad over the stars, then I assembled them together on the piece of foam. It kinda looks like a sugar cookie! I love it! (The star idea I found on Pinterest)


 
 
 
Warning.... more Christmas crafts to come!!!

Potty Training and tips

I know most of you won't care about this post, but I know my future self will be grateful for it. Potty training is so tricky and it really tested my patience. I know everyone experiences it differently and each kid is different. I did a bunch of research on tricks and tips. I didn't just stick to one, I tried a few different ones and even combined some. Let's start from the beginning. Spencer and I wanted to have Evie potty trained before our new little one arrives. I can't even begin to tell you how many people told me I should wait until the new baby came. A good chunk of these same people told me Evie was too young (she is 22 months) and it wasn't worth my time to even try. Here's the thing; I kind of get why people told me these things, but it really made me doubt my abilities to teach Evie a hard task. Let's all be kind and not mom shame those who try things differently and earlier than others. I am with her all day, every day and paid attention to a...

Help me raise money for a cause (Part 1)

As many of you know, I have Type 1 Diabetes for 10 years in August 2013. For those of you who don't know, I would like to share my story (in summary). At the end of the school year while in the 5th grade I started to lose my vision. Things started to change quickly inside of my body. I was never feeling fully energized and I was constantly feeling like I had to go to the bathroom and drink lots of water. I started to lose weight and the color in my cheeks started to disappear. The first two weeks in the 6th grade I weighed a scarce 73 pounds. My eyes were sunk in and my cheek bones were poking out. My mom took me to the doctors. After a quick finger prick, they found out that my blood sugar was 831mg/dl. (Normal target range is 80-120 mg/dl) That was a very dangerous number! I was then told I had to be taken directly to Primary's; I couldn't even go home to get things. Both my mom and I were in a mix of emotions. Not long after being admitted to the hospital, I was given th...

One Year Down, Forever to Go!

Happy Anniversary Love! I can't believe it has been a whole year since we were married. I have looked back on who we were when we got married and who we have become and I love it. October 9, 2014 will always be my favorite day (and yes I know I will probably say that when I have children but...), because it was a start of a new adventure. It was a start of a new life and pathway in which I will always have my one and only by my side. Marriage. Wow, where do I even start? To be completely honest, this year has been such a blessing of continual learning, good and the bad arguments, and even happy and sad tears. No one ever told me about all of the emotions that marriage brings. They really should offer a class for this. I have loved my husband since the first time he told me he loved me. Let's go down memory lane shall we? We were driving home from one of our date nights and Spencer was being nervously quiet. He would not let go of my hand and he would not let a word slip out. H...
