July 15, 2008 by Elaine

I have to do this meme before the Summer is out. We’ve got plenty of time left yet, right? I mean I haven’t even been on vacation yet! But still, I need to do this one so my “tagees” can do it too! : ) iheartchocolate tagged me for this one: Here are the rules:…

Best Shot Monday – My Little Artiste

July 14, 2008 by Elaine

I never can resist the Dollar Spot at Target. By the time I weave through the 2 aisles I have usually added another $5 or so to my Target tab. They really know how to get you, don’t they? One day I bought The B Man some “crafty” things from there, including foam letters, pipe…

13 Months, 26 Days, 8 Hours and some minutes…

July 11, 2008 by Elaine

It occured to me today that I haven’t written about my “baby” lately. Tragic, I know. Seems like after that one-year mark we tend to be more lax about documenting those special and fun moments and I decided that I have to continue because really, how else will I remember them? Little G will be…

Scraggin’ (scrappin + bloggin)

July 8, 2008 by Elaine

Lately I’ve been looking for more inspiration for my scrapbooking and I bet y’all will never guess where I found it. Yep, on some blogs. I really had no scope of how many wonderful ideas are out there until recently. So, in the interest of making sure the ideas keep flowing, I have started a…

Our Very Own Super Hero

July 8, 2008 by Elaine

I am not sure if I should be typing this now, as I may risk “outing” one 4-year-old Super Hero, also known as Super Squeaky. Yes folks, he may be in your neighborhood “saving the day,” well…uh… any day now. So… watch out as you walk your dogs, take your kids to the park or…

Best Shot Monday, Etc.

July 7, 2008 by Elaine

Here are a few pictures from the past week, inlcuding the holiday. We did go to fireworks the evening of the 3rd but I forgot my camera (darn!) We also went to the city parade on the morning of the 4th. I had my camera, minus the memory card. Not good. I did get a…

Through the Lens – Assignment 1

July 4, 2008 by Elaine

I think I mentioned that I hope to learn to take better pictures with my camera (a Canon S5 is) with the help of this blogger, Hallie over at From the Rubber Room. Every couple of weeks we have a new assigment for our “course” “Through the Lens: Digital Photogrpahy 101” and for the first…

You People Are So Nice

July 3, 2008 by Elaine

It’s no secret that us bloggers love comments. I mean c’mon, it’s kinda like chocolate without the calories (ok, maybe not, but you get me – there’s an addiction issue there…) And! When there’s an added bonus to the comment like “Hey, I’ve got a little something for you over at my blog,” it’s like…
