A peek into my life in May

Sunday, May 29, 2022 // No comments

Hello Crafters,

First of all, please forgive me for falling behind in my posts...My Saturday posts were quite non existent during the month of April and May. Crazy season! Here is a little sneak peek into what went on during the month of May! I will be back in full force with my weekly Saturday posts.

It has been a super busy month in Teresa's craft room and outside of the craft room the month of May.

We had softball, softball, and more softball as our granddaughter's high school softball team went on to win the District Championship early in May.

Then on to a College Graduation in KY...

Next up was a Softball banquet where our only granddaughter ( I might be a little bit partial to the beautiful and only granddaughter) was awarded Most Improved Player of the season.

Then in the same week we had 2 other major events! A 13th birthday and a high school graduation ! Our month was full of wonderful activities, our hearts full of love, our minds filled with fabulous memories, but our bodies quite tired...lol. Hopefully, things will slow down for us for a little while anyhow!

I hope you enjoyed the peek into my life during the month of May...now bring on the crafting!

Here is my project that I have to share with you today. I created a pop up box birthday card with a space galaxy theme.

Supplies Used:

Prima Watercolor 6x6 Paper Pad

Distress Inks to create a galaxy background on the paper: chipped sapphire, mustard seed, wilted violet, and pine needles

Until Later,

Teresa

Happy Birthday to my Baby Girl!

I have the most honored privilege of being this young lady's mama!

30 years ago today I gave birth to this wonderful person. She is every mother's dream. She is a fabulous daughter, the best mother to her children, a very amazing wife to her hubby. She loves life and I am just so very thankful that God blessed me with being her mommy!! One thing I am so very thankful for is that God has blessed me with being able to stay home right now and that equals being able to spend more time with her!

SO,

this is for you my sweet baby girl!!!! I love you so much!

And this says it all!!!

How is it that the past two years have just flown by? Our youngest grandchild turned 2 last week and we were thrilled to be able to not only go to the beach last weekend...something that would not have been possible for this once grandma teacher...but being so blessed to be a SAHW/grandma this year we were able to go and totally enjoy! Pictures of that trip coming later! Anyhow on his actual birthday we went over for dinner and had cake! We totally love being with all of our grandchildren and are so blessed to be part of their lives. Enjoy his birthday through the cute sights of these adorable pictures!
