"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences. "

A wiggly tooth no more


Yep, after months of envying classmates and friends, The Daughter finally has her very own whole in her head. I arrived home from camp to a bouncing little girl that could hardly contain her excitement long enough to tell me her tooth was super wiggly! Not loose, wiggly. Yet another childhood milestone has been achieved. Is there any way to slow things down? I'm not ready for her to grow up yet.

P.S. this is post is way old news to some...I'm like, two weeks behind on the posting of it.

Birthday Shirt


Whipped up this shirt for my little sister's Birthday. I always try to do something special for her while we are at camp together each year. Happy Birthday, Krissy!

Have I mentioned how much I love my Silhouette? Yep, I used it to create the template for the design & cut the heat transfer flocking. Now I'm dreaming up Vacation shirts for our up coming California trip..... :)

Camp Wooten 2010



Highlights:

  • Fabulous weather. The best weather we've had in a very, very, very long time.
  • Great kids.
  • Piloting a new survivor challenge course. (I had this crazy idea and was actually able to pull it off. A big thanks to everyone that pitched in and worked up to the last minute with me!)
  • Getting a few breaks. A first in many years due to being so short staffed.
  • Seeing the stars also nice to get away from the city lights and really take in the beauty of nature.
  • Great staff. It really makes a huge difference when you know that you have people surrounding you that you can depend on and enjoy being around.

Blogger Failure

I have a confession: not only have I not logged-in or posted a thing on the blog since March 8th (yes, that's over a month now...), I haven't check a single one of your blogs. I know, totally failure! Things have been crazy busy and I've been in a funk for some time. But enough with that, I'm back at it & plan to get connected with you all again. :)
