Pumpkins!... in May?

My pumpkins!
It is a little late to be posting this halloween post in May but here it goes!
This year we had more kids doing pumpkins and decided it was too messy to carve them so we glittered and painted pumpkins!
These two above are spraypainted and then painted and glittered.


These two pumpkins are best friend pumpkins! My very bestest friend, Ceianna, made Papa Smurf and I made the M&M. We used acrylic paints for these and the paint quickly peeled off :( but it was pretty cute while they lasted!

Summer Fun Frame tutorial







So a week or two ago after my siblings and I got out of school I made a list of things we are going to do this summer and of course I had to pretty it up! It is mainly to keep Carsyn (6 years old) from sitting and watching TV all day, but I have been having some fun with it too! 


I measured the frame, cut out some pretty scrapbooking summer looking paper, wrote a whole long list of simple things to do, added some stickers, and put it in the frame! The glass makes the marks erasable like a white board.


We have already accomplished a few of the tasks on the list! I hope you all have a great summer!

I haven't posted in so long! I have so many ideas I need to post. You will have to wait for me to get around to taking pictures (should be next week). Here is one that I want to try: Microwave meatloaf in a mug! I can't wait to see if this is any good if you try it before I get a chance to update this post, please, do share!

You probably noticed I made some layout changes. The lovely pink tittles to the right ---> are a special thanks to The Cutest Blog on the Block. They have free (yes really actually completely free) blog layouts and cute buttons for your blog. 

Thanks a million for reading my posts.
