my agenda

i have a strong feeling that a blog post devoted to what agenda I use is kind of lame...but i can't help myself.  i am a list maker, a post it note freak, and a lover of journals and agendas.  i love my technology, but i love a piece of paper and a nice pen even more. 

a couple of months ago i found this agenda to help me organize my life and i love it.

it is pretty standard as agenda's or day planners go, but i really loved this family version which has perforated sheets at the back to make lists. 

I got it at gallery leather.com and would reorder next year too. It's keeping my insane life somewhat more organized. Happy new year everyone!

baby news!

can you believe we are halfway into december already? i can't. i have had many distractions keeping me away from christmas shopping, baking and planning. mainly this one which is just too cute for words....
she is our new baby in the family (which i never ever ever thought we would have). glen and i have never had dogs. we have no clue what we are doing. but she is so darn cute i don't even care.

she is a maltipoo (maltese+toy poodle). she is a beauty with a heart shaped nose.

instant. love.

hope to be back soon with some kind of creative stuff that has been swirling in my brain, but hasn't made it out yet.

counting my blessings

this makes the craziest of days bearable....

sharing good stuff

the lovely leslie makes these awesome placemats. (she also knits like no one i've ever known...takes the most beautiful photos....and bakes too). i've been meaning to order some for ages...i think it's about time.

they would be perfect for my little artists- for doing little math problems and practicing spelling. tic tac toe. quotes. hangman. the possibilities are endless.

they'd also make a great christmas gift. you can buy them here.

autumn

the leaves are so pretty right now.

but why is it that boys always find sticks in the woods?

and then turn them into weapons? happy fall.

love this...
