Children see magic because they look for it.      - Christopher Moore

Do you see these two below, those lines are really (as told to me by Ryan) a GIGANTIC moon bounce, with many different sections.  And these two are hopping & bouncing away -  having lots of fun :) No need to spend money on the real deal people - simply a mix of sidewalk chalk & imagination will do the trick :)

And this one, another lover of the outdoors -  just like his older brother.  Love how the sun was shining just overhead - makes him look pretty angelic :)  If only that were true these days - ha!!  Deep in the tantrums with this little guy, but when he loves on you - he LOVES on you, with every bit of his heart :)

There's a budding artist in the family :)  He drew these based on his FAVORITE books - Geronimo Stilton & The Kingdom of Fantasy.  If you have yet to hear of them - check them out HERE.  Ryan LOVES them!!

There's been a bit of a lull on the scrapping front.  Lots of family stuff behind the scenes these days & I have been on an energy low :(  Hoping to get my tush in gear this week :)  I did have my first full blog post up last week on the Fancy Pants Designs blog - here are a few sneaky peeks, head over HERE for the full pics & write up :)

I can't say enough about how wonderful Noel's kits are - I have purchased her kits for a long time & feel so lucky to have the opportunity to be part of her design team :)  Her newest kit Melrose is packed with such a fun mix of colors & LOTS of fun embellishments :)  Here is my first page using the Melrose kit . . .
