Happy Gotcha Day Seth!!

Today was Seth's 12th "Gotcha Day". I will never forget standing in the airport in New York waiting on him to pass through customs. When he finally came around the corner, my hands were shaking so bad, I could not get him out of the stroller....lol. Thankfully the lady that met the plane and escorted him through customs took him out and placed him in my arms. Words cannot begin to describe the emotions and feelings that hit when his little head came to rest on my shoulder. The mounds of paperwork, police checks, and what seemed to be the endless wait was over. I had my son in my arms:). Now he is 12.5 years old and I wonder where the last 12 years have went.........

Red, Blue and Brown My Creative Time Challenge

A simple red, blue and brown layout for Seth's baseball picture. He has been playing the catcher position some this year and doing quite well at the position. Needless to say, I'm proud of my boy:).

My Creative Time Throwback Challenge

A card I made for Emma's My Creative Time Throwback Challenge. I did not have the Animal Kingdom cartridge, so I use the Create A Critter cartridge with my Cricut machine. Love how the lion looks like he is walking down the "black carpet" for his close-up............lol.

6 Years Ago...........

6 years ago today we said good-bye, unexpectedly, to our daughter Marcail. You were an angel here on earth for the 2 years. Heaven sure holds a special angel now. We know you are the most beautiful angel and we cannot wait to see you again........

Love you and miss you,
Mommy, Daddy
Seth, Zackery

My Pink Stampers Father's Day Challenge

I made this card for the Father's Day Challenge for My Pink Stamper. I do not have a lot of male oriented stamps, so I decided to make a more elegant card.

It's Spring!!!

Since the weather was nice here today we all headed outside. Kami decided she was going to join Seth in a game of baseball. I do not know how those little arms were holding up that wooden bat, but she got a few swings in:).

An Irish Blessing for St. Patrick's Day.........

Wishing you always,
A wall for the wind
A roof for the rain
Tea beside the fire.
Laughter to cheer you
Those you love near you
And all that your heart might desire.

-Irish blessing

Finalization Day

Today at 9 am our youngest legally became "ours". Granted, she has been ours, in our hearts, from the moment we seen her picture, but it is always nice to hear the judge say what we already know. Needless to say, it has been an exciting day..........

Ciah Impressing Her Brother

After receiving 5.5" of snow my 12 year old went across the street and borrowed his cousin's sled. Up until the point of this video, he had been going down the hill with Ciah. It was so sweet seeing him excited when Ciah braved up and went solo:).

A card for another My Pink Stamper challenge. This is a retired Stampin' Up stamp set. Since my sister likes cats it is the perfect card for her:).

Tammy

My Pink Stamper Challenge Card

A card I submitted for the My Pink Stamper Challenge. The challenge was to use black as one of your colors.

A card made with Stampin' Up paper and ink. I used the Just Jeans background stamp and the stamp set Yee Haw. It was colored with Prisma Colored Pencils.

CASed Snowman

I seen this snowman on a blog (sorry I do not remember which one) and had to have the digital image. Bought the image and made the cute snowman. Thinking of using it as a thank you card:).

In Heaven..................

Tea heaven that is..........lol. About 3 weeks ago I ran out of the tea I had brought back from India. Yes, it has been 14 months since I have been back from India and I just ran out of the tea. I had one huge suitcase packed full of the stuff. Yes, I know, I am addicted. Sorry Lipton, you just do not cut it anymore. You haven't since I set foot in India 7 years ago and had my first taste of there. Anyway, I came home yesterday and there was a box sitting in the kitchen waiting on me. Inside.................... my tea from India! Needless to say, I have been savoring every sip I take:)

Tammy

Birthday Boy...........

My oldest baby is 12 years old...........sniff, sniff. How did this happen. It was 11.5 years ago I was standing in a New York airport waiting on the escort to walk down the hall with him, after coming through customs. Now we are celebrating his 12th birthday while he tries to act cool. But Mom still sees a hint of the little guy sitting in the stroller taking in the airport activity. Happy Birthday Seth, I hope it was a good one.............

Chef Kami

My hubby snapped this picture of our 3 year old Christmas Eve. She was pleased as punch when she got her turn at putting the hat and apron on....lol.

Merry Christmas
