New Things

Time for an update..we had a busy weekend with watching the game! The Cardinal's won the World Series...so very cool!!!!!!!!! Friday night's game was great..would have loved to have been there.

Saturday went to a Pumpkin Patch


and then a fun hayride and bon fire in the evening. We had a great time with the friends who invited us. And Parker was in heaven gathering sticks for the fire. Here's a picture of us all before we went on the hayride.



Sunday got some cute pictures of Haley and Peso on one of his many trips outside to hopefully "go potty" gesh!


Let me tell you it's very very hard to get pictures of a very busy puppy! He's a bundle of energy right now and we tried putting him on his lead and he spent the entire time chewing it. He loves to sunbathe though and in the afternoon the front lawn is all sun. He's too little to be out there alone..but we still want him to get used to it for the spring when he's older.

I've been busy working on some scrapbook projects too. One of them is using the new Fall line from Bo Bunny. I covered a carveable pumpkin and decorated it up. Made a tag to hang from a candle and a card. I still am planning on covering a smaller pumpkin and making napkin rings and place cards for the set. Hopefully some nice magazine will want to publish it. Ha! That would be nice!


and here's my newest project a Halloween tin bucket I did using new Bo Bunny papers to hold all the treats for tomorrow night! I added lots of googly eyes and gauze to match with the papers and stickers.





So that's it for now..oh wait..a picture of Haley in her costume. She went to the school's fall festival. Let's just say gone are the cute costumes. Although I can't say a thing as she is so my daughter for chosing this!


That's it for now..Happy Monday!

Puppy Love

I've been meaning to post about this for 2 weeks now. But life has a way of getting in the way of our best laid plans. So it's time to spread the news of our newest addition!

I'm pleased to announce the Sandvoss Family has added to it's already crazy family a beautiful Boston Terrier now 9 weeks old named Peso!



He's a beautiful boy..weighed this weekend at 5 pounds..should get around 15-20..we're hoping on the 15!HA He's smart, funny, playful..the bite I got yesterday OOWWWWW it hurt! Very loving, snuggly and most of all beyond adorable!!



He has yes...blue eyes that are amazing..and is a beautiful brownish/red color..more brown that is called Seal by the AKC. Yes..he's a purebred and yes..we are hoping to try our hand at breeding in the future.

The kids are crazy about him and I'll admit so are Scott and I. It's hard not to be with that face and those amazing blue eyes of his! So another scrapbook to add to my growing collection only this one will feature this beautiful little guy!



And for those that want to send gifts..we're registered at PetSmart and Petco and he's on Iams Puppy Food, loves tennis balls, rope chew toys and needs a cool doggie bed! Just kidding..although I can see Pet Showers being the thing of the future!

Peace out from Peso!!

here's a new layout I am crazy about!


Here's the journaling that goes with it:

green means go.. going to a new school...middle school no less. you kept an open mind to all the changes and it’s been green lights since. green means go.. growing up into such a great kid. you are just the nicest guy ever.(well now and then you have your moments.) you say things that really make me feel like i am succeeding raising you into a good guy. Green means go in that you are growing up into such an amazingly handsome guy. I don’t know if it’s due to your daddy but you’re sure a cute 11 year old. Green means go.. keep on doing what you’re doing. Learning, being helpful, caring about your family and just being one heck of a cool 11 year old guy. And hey..keep listening to your Dad and I too! We have got lots of good things to offer! 9/06 …

OK GO

Ok Go..the band that lately I listen to on my walks. I discovered them on MTV music awards and had to find out more and hear more of their music. So glad I did! They have such a great beat, good songs and I just can't seem to get enough of them.

I've been wanting to share this video of theirs. It's awesome! Who knew that a treadmill was so much more fun! I should be dancing on it instead of walking!LOL

So go here..see the video and see what makes me smile!

I'm Back with a Tag!

I was tagged by Becky and I bet you're glad as I am long overdue for a post huh?! So here goes...

The rules are: List 5 weird things about yourself or your pets. Tag 5 friends and list them. Then, those people need to write on their blogs about 5 weird things, and state the rules, and tag 5 more people.

1. I hate when things go missing around here as until it's found I just cannot stop thinking about it!

2. I can't stand dirty feet and especially when mine are dirty. I will go to my bathroom and sit down at the tub and wash them. I know..just don't like dirty feet!

3. I have to have some form of lipstick, lipgloss or the like on my lips. It's not that I'm trying to be prissy or made up..I just don't like nothing on them.

4. I hate that I have long arms. Kind of weird. Scott's 5'9 and I am barely 5'1 and my arms are as long if not longer than his. Weird..odd!

5. I like to wear solid color tops. Or at least if I have on a striped shirt..I then wear a solid under it. Never just a stripe or print top or rarely...how about that!

Okay..so there..you know 5 weird things about me...I'm going to tag...Lynne, Brianna, Melanie D, Christina P and and Dee!!!!!!!!!

Have fun everyone!!!!!!!!!!! And I promise to update the blog today with some goodies I've been needing to share!
