Happy Halloween

It's that time.  Wishing you a happy, safe, and fun Halloween.  I'll be back tomorrow to post some info for the MWExpress Kits.  There are some add on kits available for a super limited time only.  I'll post some Halloween Pictures later this week.  I have some super cute ones I took last night at our friend's Halloween Party.

Cards for Christmas

Supplies:  Ranger Distress Inks, Prism Paper, Zing Embossing Powder, Water Color Paper

It's never too early to start Christmas preparation, especially when you're a procrastinator like me.  I made these cards with my acrylic stamp block.  You can learn more Here.  It's a link to Holiday Thinking Inking.    Super fun to make.  

We have a Winner!!!!!

Hi Everyone!  I just wanted to do a quick post to announce the winner of the followers/subscribers of my blog.  Thank you all so much for subscribing.  I do appreciate it.  So without further adieu:

The Random Generator  Chose number 15....That's Danielle Hunter!!!!  


Danielle email me your address so I can ship your prize out... a Memory Works Express Kit from February!  I love the kits.  I know I've said it a million times.  My email is mariahashbaugh@hotmaildotcom


I will post some projects this weekend.  It should prove to be a busy weekend with pumpkin carving, parties, and trick or treating.  Enjoy your nights, friends!

Cloudy Weather

This is a picture of some weather we had last week.  The clouds were so huge...Bigger than the mountains.

I'm tired today.  It feels like a Thursday.  It's been a stressful few weeks at school.  Sometimes being a teacher is hard, and full of worry for your students.  Anyhow, moving on...I'm going to close the 50 follower challenge on Friday.  I have 52 followers/subscribers.  So, I'll give a few others a few more days to join or confirm their email subscriptions.  I'd like to thank everyone that became a follower/subscriber.  I really do appreciate it.  I do hope you can find inspiration or ideas from my projects.  Have a nice evening.

Happy Sunday

MWExpress December 09

Hello All!  Last year we got tons of snow... for the desert that is.  I was finally able to scrapbook some of the pictures.  Did you know there is about 9.5 weeks left in 2010!  We are that close to the end of the year.  It is unbelievable.  It seems that once school starts, time just flies by.  My goal is not to get behind on Christmas Preparations this year.  We will be hosting Erik's family on Christmas Eve and my family on Christmas Day.  So, as I prepare, I'm going to share with you as well.  I'm going to make and send Christmas cards this year.   I don't really have too many to send out, but I'll share anyway.  I'm also going to share some of my Holiday Recipes and projects.    

Don't forget, if you read this blog, please pass it on to others.  My goal is to have 50 followers/subscribers.  Once I reach that number, I'll be doing a give away.  One lucky person will receive a February Memory Works Express Kit!  

Good Night!

What a Week...And Air Show Photos

This has been such a long, hard week.  I'm so glad for Friday.  Here are some of the pictures from our trip to the air show last weekend.

First, you have to learn the right way to spectate.  There are several options:

The stare straight up and shade your eyes

The Plug Your Ears and Run to Dad

The Plain Old Plug Your Ears

The Curl Up into A Ball

Next we have a shot of some fun:

The Danger

The Army Servicemen were great with the kids!

The Thrills:

And of course, the injury:

JoJo fell  down the steps of the bus.  He caught himself with his face...on the cement curb.  Poor thing.  He busted his lip and got a bloody nose.  The stuff around his mouth are beans from a Taco Bell Burrito.

The boys did have a great time.  It was exhausting.

I'll be back later this weekend to share some projects.
