We went to the pool this week..


My crazy, awesome brother. He decided it would be fun to take the chair in the water with him..lol (:





----------------------------------


Headbands I got at Kohl's the other day $1.60 for 2.(mom had a 20% off coupon)
I like them to snap clips on for something different.

The younger children trying to stay cool in our 'pool'.(:

I took these pictures around 5pm yesterday. It's kinda crazy to see the moon in the sky before supper..

BLACKBERRIES!!!!
We picked many blackberries by the road close to the tracks. A few actually got in the freezer!
 yum.yum.yum


--------------------

I'm not sure what kind of flowering bush this is but I know one thing: it's tons of fun to take pictures of!!!!






I was using my macro filters that I got for my birthday to take these pictures.
Some with the +4 and some the +10.

Love.love the black and white!

A little spider that was on the leaf!

Our first tomato!!




 Little lady bug on the carrots!




Potato blossoms.

I love watching Harrison play. He has so many face expressions.
Matchbox cars and Tonka trucks are his favorite toys right now. 100% boy!!!
He loves when you read to him.
When you ask him if he wants to watch a movie he'll look at the tv....
Smartie pants, I didn't even know what one was when I was his age!!


This is the grin I get from him almost everytime I look at him. Makes my day everytime!

you asked...

So here they are.

Pictures of the clips I've been making.




---------------

I actually made these butterfly clips a couple months ago, but they were in my tin of clips so I decided to take a few pictures of them too..
Maybe if I can get enough computer time I'll do a post on how to make them..
They're extremely easy to make.[:




-----------------------

This clip was made out a piece of left-over lace, a scrap ribbon, a button, and some tulle.
My own random concoction.(:





---------------------


I got the idea on how to make these from [this tutorial].
But instead of putting mine directly on a head band,
I put a clip on the back so I can either put it in my hair or clip it to a skinny head band..



--------------------

I love these lil lace clips.
Find out how to make them [here].



------------------

This is what I was working on last week.


But this week was a little different.

I helped paint the kitchen, mowed lots of grass, baked/cooked, cleaned, did laundry,
cleaned kitchen cupboards, made bread, and got ready for visitors this weekend..

In other words, not much time for clip-making..(:

Hopefully sometime soon I'll be able to work at them again though..


{this is my special little spot behind our shed}
