Fall Is Falling In

This is a fun and easy craft to do. We did these last week in class and the kids loved them. They were so excited to be able to take them home to their moms. It is amazing how you can take a paper plate, a can tab, die cut leaves and hot glue and make such a cute wreath.

Farm Bureau Farm Day 2007

How cute are we? Clint's class took a trip to the Farm Bureau Farm Day. We all had a great time. We did everything from tasting strawberry banana smoothies to placing our organs in the correct place.



This was the first attractions we saw a real roping cowboy. The kids went crazy over him.
Who is this I wonder? Mrs. Betty's husband Gary filled us in beef cattle. We know there is some good eating going on at that house.
Now, here is the scary part. Clint is placing Jordan's organs in place, because he can't remember where his dirty clothes go.

Here is the Tractor Man aka Brandon Fuston. He told us all about John Deere and how to be safe while using one of those green machines. I can remember when Brandon was this young. How old does that make me? You did a great job.

I would like to send out a big THANK YOU to all involved in the Farm Day. I know that there were children there that have never seen some of the things that were there and you gave them the opportunity to do so. I know there were lots and lots of work done to make it such a success. Just in case we forgot to tell you THANK YOU to all.

Meet The Ghost Family

Meet our Ghost Family, A mommy, daddy and two little ghost boys. The boys have been wanting to do a craft bad. When I was at Wal mart today I saw some little mummy windsocks and thought they were cute, but didn't want to pay $6 for something that I really didn't want. I got a brainstorm and went straight to the fabric department. We had a good time making them and putting them up. We hung the mommy and daddy on our porch and the two boys in our tree. My boys like to climb trees so I thought it would be a good place to hang them.
I had to make sure I had a mommy ghost. I made sure that she had a pink bow in her hair. We put spiderwebs around our doors to make it look spooky. It is amazing at how cheap you can make things this cute.

Baby Wesley Is Here!!!

Introducing Wesley Ronald Clendenon, weighing in at 7lbs. 15oz. and 20.5 inches long. He was Born on Monday, October 1st at 8:06 a.m.. Mom Kristy is doing good and they are home now. I talked to her just a few minutes ago and she said she was tired. I have never seen so much black hair. Wesley was sporting a little mohawk he had so much hair. Oh, how sweet babies are and boy do they smell good.
This is Big Sister Chelsey and boy is she proud of her little brother. She is going to be the best big sister ever. I am glad that everyone is home safe and sound. I hope Ronald will get a good nights rest in his big bed instead of the little pull out he had at the hospital. Clint was about to die to hold him at the hospital, but I wouldn't let him, so he is counting the days to get to hold him. We are all glad you are all home and WELCOME to the family little Wesley , We love you.

Ja Ja's Snowman

She and her mom Amber, are Shawn's cousins as well as mine. Amber and I work together at B&B. JaJa and her mom are really close and I think that it is wonderful. Amber is a great mom. I hope you girls like the Snowman bow I made for JaJa.

Christmas Time A Coming

Well, it's almost that time of year again. I think I enjoy making the seasonal bows. It is like being in a candy store, when I was buying my ribbons. If you would like one or to order just email me at slc2grissom@blomand.net and I'll get back to you. I have several styles of Christmas ribbon and accessories.

Inspired By Tab

O.k., I know that many of you check blogs daily. Well, Tuesday I was doing my blogging and went to Tab's blog and fell in love. She had posted a button and crystal set and it was breath taking. If you haven't checked out her blog, just click on it on the right had side of mine, under Tab's Bling. I was so excited to see her using buttons, I could not wait to get to school yesterday. We are studying the letter B and how neat was a Button Bracelet. This is mine and we all had a great time making them. The kids were so proud of them and had a ball. Thanks Tab for the inspiration, even though ours were the cheep version.
