I've been doing a lot of yoga lately...everyday! :) and I LOVE it...I love how I can surrender completely all my worries and fears and anxieties to the Lord through these very mindful practices...and how challenged I am through different poses...it's good for my soul...so I thought I would scrap about it. :)

It's been a busy week...my little Olivia turned 7 on Wednesday...and she says she feels older...so flippin cute!

I'm working on marketing plans for my photography business here...and have a few good leads which makes me really excited!

I'm also thinking very seriously about taking a Yoga instruction class when one comes in our area again...I really love doing Yoga so much...I've only been practicing for 5 months...so I think after I get a few years and instruction classes under my belt...I would LOVE to offer more here in Montana. I practice here 2x's a week and it is AMAZING! :)

My sweet friend Sandy turns 40 this weekend...and we are going to her place this weekend to celebrate...We need to get some photographs of us together...she is so dear to my heart and I have NO photographs of us together! :)))

I'm back home! :)))

The last 2 weeks I have been on the road...Spending quality time with my children...and going to Texas to see Todd and to drive back home to Montana.

While I was in AZ, I went on a field trip with Olivia to the Zoo and we had so much fun! I so enjoy every moment I have with my children and hate every moment with out them.

 

  

  

We made many stops on our way home...the Big Bend in Texas, SantaFe. Trinidad, The Royal Gorge, Silida's, where my Grandpa built a road up this mountain called Tenderfoot, Moab. I would say that Moab was the most BEAUTIFUL place ever...the Arches National park was AMAZING! I will be posting more photographs on my photo a day blog of all the travelings and my kids. :))) 

For some fun scrappy news...I was asked to join the Label Tulip Design Team starting April 1st! What an honor and blessing this is! :))) If you would like to read more about me and the other designers that have been added to the Team...we have all added a post with a little more information about us on the blog. :) Everyone on this team is so blazingg talented and so wonderful as people too! I LOVE it!

I can't wait to share my creations with you all once I have them all completed!...I should have them posted on the 15th.

Have a blessed rest of your week! xoxo

Guess who is a GUEST Designer for Studio Calico for April?

I am so excited to say....ME!

Studio Calico kits are AMAZING to work with...and the team is just so very loving and welcoming in every way. Click here if you would like to know a little more about me too. *smiles*

I have enjoyed every aspect of participating in the forum as well as behind the scenes as well.

I want to say what an honor working with SC was for me this month...and thank them for inviting me to be  guest designer with their fabulous kits. 

Enjoying a wonderful week with my kids...We paid tribute to Grandma LaVonne by sending her balloons with messages of love to her. We watched the balloons go into the sky until they all disapeared when she came down to snatch them up. Thank you all for your wonderful thoughts and prayers and love through this time. (((hugs)))

I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed weekend coming up!

Pink makes me smile!...

I do LOVE the color Pink...and I also LOVE working with it and wearing...but I especially LOVE being a Guest Designer for Pink Paislee the month of March!

Here are the creations I did up close just in case you don't get a chance to go see the blog. :)

 

  

  

  

  

  

  

Seriously LOVE working with their products! :))) 

It's started to warm up a little bit around here...on up to 40! LOL I love it! Glad to be able to get my cowboy boots out again though...instead of my snow boots...I love my boots! :)))

I am Guest Designing for Studio Calico for the month of April too...I seriously LOVE their kits...and expecially LOVE the girls there. :)))

and here are a couple of sneaks of what I have created...I still have more to do. :)

 

  

I've been doing yoga now every day...and LOVING it! WOW...what a difference that makes heart body and soul! I LOVE all the poses I'm learning and mastering...I would say my favorite is Crow...and I also love the backbend holding my ankles...so freeing and surrendering! I wish I knew about this in my gymnastic's days though...what a help it would've been with all the positions and stretches. I am determined to get rid of this silly 40 year old version of a muffin top...and YAY it's working! LOL

I hope you all have had a fabulous and blessed last couple of weeks...Till the next post...be blessed in all you do! xoxo

I'm back...

From AZ seeing my kids and spending 9 days with the,...9 of the best days of my year so far. :)

I met a lovely girl on the plane on the way back and we even went to church together this weekend. :)

I've been thinking...on the subject of parenting and the relationship that develops over the years with your children from baby to teen because that is as far as I've gotten so far in my on going journey as a Mom.

I use to be a Mom who thought that I was determined to be the BEST mom...and do EVERYTHING I could to just be better for my kids....and raise them to be wonderful respectful people by the examply I live daily. I've stressed about it...worried about it...and cried about it even too. Do you know what has given me so much freedom? As my job as a Mother...which is the best job/honor I could ever be blessed with...I have found that it isn't so much about making my children be a certain way...but to feed and encourage their passions through life...and instill in them a consistant LOVE through ALL of their life's journeys. You see...when your sweet baby grows up to be a teenager, you soon see that everything that you have tried to teach them about, all their lives, they may choose not to use. The difficult part is being OK with them not being exactly how you want them to be. If my children make bad choices...or ones that I know will not be good for them or even possibly hurt them...I love them. When they succeed at something...I love them...If they fail at something I love them. You see...it is very simple when you reach a point in your life and a parent to allow your children to be who THEY are, and not try to force them to be what you want them to be. We all make mistakes in life...we all fail and fall short...but those are OUR experiences that mold us into who we are...My parents are not responsible for my good and bad choices in life...and when I've made bad ones, they have ALWAYS loved me through it and I am so THANKFUL for that kind of example my parents have given me. I LOVE being a Mom more than anything else in this world...and believe God gave me that desire at a very young age for His purpose...it is my passion in life.

Things may not be how I would like them to be...but I do know that they are exactly as they are suppose to be for right now...and you never know what tomorrow holds...and I never stop praying and hoping on that. :)

I hope you all had a wonderful Valentines Day...I had a wonderful one with my kids! Still going through a bit of a shock of being 40 now...but over all, I'm good.

Now I need to get busy with all the AWESOME photographs I took while I was in AZ on some fun projects I have on my scrappin desk...and will share when I have them done. :)

Here is one of my fav's with my kids

 

and I even got to do a photo session while I was there too...and here is one of the photographs that I LOVE from that...

  

I have a friend that is going through some trials through discovering she has breast cancer. If you would like to follow her journey...she is an AMAZING woman who has the ability to be still very uplifting yet very transperent through it all. Click here to be blessed by her...and bless her too.

Have a wonderful and blessed week...and thank you for checking in on me and your continued love and prayers too.

Lots of love,

K
