Mother's Day love


A couple Mother's Day wreaths for a couple of mothers I love!

 This one was in honor of a friend who lost her Mother last summer and was spending her first Mother's Day without her.



 This one was for a friend who always wanted a picnic for Mother's Day and so I made her a 'picnic' wreath

potty mouth

Real life dialogue:

Jack: "Dee Dee, I am going to drop a deuce right on your head."

Me: "Jack Lam!"

Jack: "(whispers..) "I am going to drop a deuce right on your head."

Me: "Jack Charles, not again!"

Jack: "Booty,penis,pee"

"Hello? Is it me you're looking for??"

Hello?Is it me you're looking for?

 Yes... I am back. Well, I will TRY to be back. I have been gone for almost 5 months! Holy Moses that is a long time. Whenever I think of a length of time, like 5 months, I always think.."Aww..man. If only I stuck to that raw food diet, I would look incredible right now." or "If only I had saved that $10 a week, liked I dreamed, I could buy...."or"If only I practiced sewing or my piano everyday, I would be great by now!"
 Do you ever think like that?? I am a dreamer, I guess. Also, too hard on myself! This stage in my self is just this: SURVIVE!! My needs come later. Just try to  make it to 5 months without anyone going to the hospital or dying.
Oh wait! Ummm that DID happen!!What a freaky start to 2012.Ya'll had big plans for 2012. And you know what I prayed for on New Years Eve? For God to reel me in closer. I am a catch. God knows it. I know it. I have potential that can EASILY glorify Christ. And he has used me more in 2012, well, then I ever thought. Be careful what you pray for! :) But for realsies. I am in love with loving God.
I am rambling... you know me. Got to get it out before it flies away.And I have so much to talk about!
Can you imagine what these over-sized knuckles of hands crafted in 5 months?! LOADS!! But I am also a dingbat, and didn't take that many pictures of them :(
Let's make this post short and sweet and see how many people are still reading me.
                                                              leave you with this lil nugget:
Timmy boy opened his ice cream and it looked like butt. Doesn't it look like his hiney?!

                                                              Missed ya, folks!!

Elf on the Shelf

Introducing the newest Seaonal member of our Lam Clan....
TIGERELF!!!
Jack named him himself!
Now, our Elf is super sneaky. And quite the trouble maker! 
He fits into family just right ;)
Here are a couple of pictures where we found our goofy TigerElf.


Tiger climbed our tree and threw all Jack's underwear on it.
 Jack laughed but then wasn't too pleased about the public display of his intimates.
 Jack liked finding Tiger in the bathroom. He said "That silly Elf drew on my mirror! We not allowed to do that!"
 He loved finding Elf on his firetruck. He is really into making goofy faces when I say "smile!"
 Gav was pissed he couldn't climb the chair in time for the shot.
 6:15am. Did you read that? 6:15 AM! That's when Jack decides to start his darn day. So... I had to just throw Tiger on a pile of donuts while Jack went to the bathroom.Tiger even took a baby bite outta one. Needless to say, this was the biggest hit of all so far...can you guess why?Let's just say...Jack ate all 3 donuts in a matter of minutes. I am so proud.
 6:15 am face.

30 minute crafts!

I want to start a new thing here. quick crafts! I have such limited time a day to focus on crafting/sewing..which I LOVE! So I am a huge fan of finishing a whole craft in one day. It feels so good to dip in my creating outlet everyday or so. 

Here is a felt leaf decoration that I saw on Pinterest. (my new bff)
It took my only 20 minutes. I did it all while the boys ate lunch. These are the colors I had on hand but you can get some real cute colors! 


draw a leaf and pick out your colors.I made about 3 leafs out of each color
pick your thread. I used 4 strings

I folded my felt so I only had to cut out my leaf once. Saved a bundle of time!


 make sure you have a cutie that keeps you giggling while working.

TA DA!
