But last time I did not receive a piece...
















Classic line from Office Space. I love that movie. So here are all my layouts from the most recent October Label Tulip kit. This kit seriously just flowed for me like no other. The layouts almost did themselves. I love when that happens! Stress free, fun scrapping. It doesn't get better than that!

I had Sarah's first parent/teacher conference today. To put it lightly, I was a mess! I used to do 20 parent teacher conferences in a night when I was teaching, but I never realized just how nerve wracking it is for the parents on the other side! Thank goodness all is wonderful with her. She's opening up to all the kids (she was very shy!), she loves craft projects, self initiates play with others, recognizes all letters, colors and shapes ( although she confused the rectangle and the square - hello, she's three...i think that's fine!). She even spelled mommy for me today. And thankfully the massive attitude she's been displaying at home has not made it to school. Luckily she saves those precious moments for me :P

I just baked my very first pumpkin pie and I'm praying that it comes out tasty. Sarah had a ball helping me so either way it was well worth the experience! And she only dropped on egg and two dirty spoons...not too bad :P

If you aren't watching True Blood, you must start. Lafayette is seriously my favorite character right now. I literally rewind his dialogues and replay them over and over again. Flippin hilarious.

Today was muggy and humid and nasty. I am NOT happy about that, mother nature. Please fix that for tomorrow...thanks so much.
