Mother's Day Project

I made a picture frame for Payton's mom, it turned out really cute. And of course she loved it.

I also made a magnet for her Grammy. This was something new, I might have to try my hand at making another one sometime.

Scrapbooking...

Well I finally got inspired to start scrapbooking again. Here are a few of the pages that I have done in the last week.
These are all pictures from 2006 or before but I had idea's for these
pages so I thought I'd better do them.

This page turned out perfect. If you click on it you can see the detail

better.

These pictures are not the best, they are from 1992. What can you expect, a kid with a camera.

Our day...

I would like you to meet Mr. Jelly Belly. My mother in-law gave him to Payton and now she calls him "big guy." Today she put him in her chair and then covered him up, later she came by and the blanket was on the floor, she told him "don't kick your covers off." Oh the things she says.
Yesterday the guys were able to get in the field. Eric planted corn all day yesterday, he did not get home until 1:30 am. They were able to work again today but rain is in the forecast for tonight and probably the rest of the week.
Payton and I went and rode with Eric awhile, we told her he was planting corn so when we got our of the tractor she looked around and asked "where's the corn." I guess she thought they were planting so really fast growing corn. Well that is all that has been going on here except for some scrapbooking and planting flowers. Hope this finds everyone in blogging world doing good.

Photo shoot

I decided to have some fun the other day, so I took Payton outside for a few pictures. I put a little dress on her and put a big bow in her hair, what a doll. Anyway here are a few of the pictures I took, it is hard to get her to smile for the camera without making a big Cheesy grin.
I just love this one, she was "reading" the book out loud. She had to finish the book before I could pose her another way.
What are you thinking sweet little one?
This flower "pells" good. Her was of saying smell.
Picking some "pretty" flowers.
No smile but I thought it was a cute shot anyway.
I think I will try to make something for her mom for Mother's Day with some of the pictures.
Well hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Tiptoe through the Tulips


Well yesterday found Eric and I in Pella, Iowa at Tulip Time. Pella is a Dutch settlement and is know for their tulips. We had a great time seeing all the beautiful tulips and touring a windmill. The parade is probably the best part of the day, it lasts for over an hour. Well I will just let the pictures tell the story. Click on the Orange Tulips to see more.
