Needless to say my latest projects have not included blogging, but I'm trying to be ok with that! I know those who blog will understand how that can be. But today I did want to share a taste of a project I did last month for my mom, I think it turned out really cute. I really like the look of watercolor ink and chalk, so "artsy!" The stamps are from a company called, "Ippity."
A little update on life with the Maasses:
Warmer weather allowing us to make our rounds of the local parks and playgrounds
Re-inventing and re-decorating our home by rearranging furniture and re-purposing stuff we already had (I almost need to re-peat that sentence...ha.)
PB and something (honey/banana/jam) sandwiches every day for lunch
Digging around the book of Esther in the Bible (a study by Beth Moore) with a lovely group of ladies
Caitlin's first sticker chart
The end of our MOPS year and pulling together a skit, a bucket of fun treats and a craft for the moms
Thinking about starting graduate work with Liberty
Reading all kids of books, on all kinds of subjects
Talking to all kinds of people, about all kinds of things
Getting back to the basics with buying raw milk direct from a local farmer and plans to get our meat and veggies from similar sources
Learning what life on a budget looks like (not near as tragic as I had pictured!)
Potty training the three year old
"Non-screaming" training the one year old
Teaching my first scrapbooking basics class
Rockin' out on keyboards and lovin' it!

Allison, I am finishing my undergead degree at Liberty. They are really so kind and helpful. Have fun with your grad degree and let me know if you need to know anything about the school.
Allison,
I have to admit that I really REALLY miss your blogging. However, I do know how crazy it is with a one and two (now three!!) year old and other projects going on, too. I'm so glad that you guys are doing well and I look forward to hearing more about your new food-lifestyle change (the milk and meat thing)! Sounds interesting!
Hi Allison! :) Yay for a new blog post! I should probably follow your example. If I can find even 15-20 minutes of uninterrupted time! ;)
Nice Alli. I'm very proud of you. I look forward to seeing you in a little over a month, God-willing! xxoo
P.S. Beautiful gifts for Mom!
The projects are super neat and it sounds like life is going well for y'all! What graduate work are you thinking of doing at Liberty? Maybe we can Facebook or chat on the phone sometime soon. We should catch up :)
