Faded Glory {Freebie}

By 3 Comments

I love Coordinated Collections, and our newest one, Faded Glory, is truly amazing! I love seeing what I come up with and then peeking at what all the other designers with the same colors and theme come up with. It’s really a neat project. Now you get to enjoy – mix and match to create your own collection with $1 products!

Pink and orange and purple and yellow and green – fall brings so many beautiful colors to the world! The Faded Glory kit embraces the colors and feelings of fall in this playful autumn digital scrapbook collection. This collection includes lots of traditional scrapbooking elements like ribbons and flowers along with some playful doodled stickers and word bits. Pick up the artsy accents and this collection works brilliantly for scrappers of all kinds!

I have also put all of my products together in an easy one-click bundle!

Last First Day

By Leave a Comment

I wasn’t sure where to take this personal notes post today. As you know, I recently traveled halfway around the world to visit Europe, and Toiny (and family) (Manda). I can’t wait to share some of our adventures with you, it was an incredible first trip to Europe, and so many amazing things happened. But, Toiny’s post about Tess’s Last First Day pushed to to post about my last first day this year as well. Europe will have to wait.

School started this week for my kids. This year I have a 7th grader, a 2nd grader and a kindergartener. My last kindergartener. He was so ready for school to start, both emotionally and educationally. Me, on the other hand, I’m not so sure. For 13 years now, I have always had a kid at home with me during the day. A buddy, a snuggle bug, a helper….but now, I’m alone. As happy as I was for him, I was feeling a little sad for myself. As he stepped onto the big yellow bus without looking back my eyes welled with tears. All day I wondered how he was doing, what he was doing, if he was making friends and having fun or if he was sad and missing mom.

Turns out, it was all of the above. He was ALL smiles when he got home. He LOVED kindergarten. He couldn’t wait to go back. But, the moment that pushed me over the edge, pushed me to understand that both he and I were ready, had to be ready was the hug. He climbed down from that big yellow bus with a huge, proud smile on his face and ran straight into my arms. “I missed you mom, but kindergarten is so fun”! That moment. I was ready.

Minnesota’s Largest Candy Store

By Leave a Comment

At least once a year, we hop in the car and make the 30 minute trek south to Minnesota’s Largest Candy Store! This place is insane! The building is HUGE and every inch is covered in candy. This isn’t the kind of candy store where you grab an empty bag and choose your bulk candy – this store has EVERYTHING! From the nostalgic candies of our childhoods to the crazy, unique stuff from all around the world! The kids absolutely LOVE it!

In addition to the tables and tables of candy, they have a lot of really neat decor – super heroes, oversized candy machines, amazing art….most of which I didn’t think to photograph when we went earlier this week – but it’s overwhelming and so fun!

The kids ran off to find just the treat they wanted. No one was more excited than my youngest, who has been dying to try gummy sushi after seeing it in a You Tube video months ago. He found it, and wouldn’t let go of it. Turns out, it wasn’t very good – but he didn’t care, he was in candy heaven!

We only stay as long as it takes the kids to pick out their perfect treat, but it’s always a blast to wander. I love seeing treats that you don’t find on shelves regularly anymore (candy cigarettes, ‘Tato Skins and cry babies to name a few). It was a wonderful family day – and I am already looking forward to our next visit!
