Home again

We are back home - actually we have been for a few weeks now. We had a wonderful time out in CA! The flight out was a little rough on us, but we made it without any "major" meltdowns. I'm home sick today, but am trying to get a lot of the little things done that I haven't had time for the past couple weeks.

Here are some pictures from our trip.

The first ones are from the amazing Paper Tales store in San Diego.

We also popped into a couple antique stores, but I didn't take any pictures.

The rest of the trip we spent hanging out with Jen and her boys. We played outside...

Went to the park....

Ate pretzels and fruit from the chocolate fountain.....
Had an absolutely amazing breakfast at the beach....

And had a blast playing along the waters edge. And if you have some time you have to stop by Mimi's blog ~ Dandelion Wishes ~ she has beautiful pictures of just some of the things she's created...and right now she's celebrating her 1 year blogiversary!! Happy Birthday Dandelion Wishes!! Here's to many more to come!

No excuses

Well, I sure hope you haven't been holding your breath - waiting for another post from me ;) It's been an extremely busy year ~ busier than I had ever imagined! Between working and trying to be the best mum I could be, some things just had to get moved to the back burner - my blog being one of those things. So rather than bore you with a list of excuses I'll just share a couple fun things that I've been working on and things that I'm going to be doing.

I've been very lucky to have found a wonderful store near my house to sell some of the things I've been making - mostly banners,cards and some little books. It's called Treasures in Thyme ( isn't that just an adorable name?). The owners are two of the nicest women, and they have an amazing eye for unique and wonderful gifts and antiques. Right now I'm working on some onsies to sell. They are turning out pretty cute if I might say so myself. Hope to get some good pics of them to post soon.

And next Friday the Doodle-Bug and I are leaving for LA for almost a week to see my best friend Jenn! I'm so excited!! There are so many wonderful places we are hoping to see while we are out there this time... Paper Tales and Vignettes being two of the places I want to see during our trip to San Diego. We are also going to spend some time at the beach - and I can't wait! The weather here has been so cold I can't wait for some sunshine and warm weather!

I'm off to bed - hope to get some pics taken and posted later this week!
