Just goofing around

I got a great deal the other day on one of those bags with the plastic picture slots for holding snapshots of your favorite people. I only paid 3$ for the bag from Michael's because of their 40% off coupons. I have been wanting one of these bags and they had some in pink. So I decided to go through some of my recent pix of Rebekah and settled on only 5...because there is only 5 slots....it was a little hard to settle on so few. So I decided to share a couple here. I've already shared the one that I like while making paper mache the other day and here are a few more of my favorite daughter!!
She's a handful during the day but so cute when she sleeps! And she is a total fashionista!!  She tells me what she wants to wear...




And then there is having fun with daddy!
And lets not forget my current favorite right now...my new Droid X will let me take Sepia pictures and I managed to get this one while we were riding the carousel at the mall a few weeks ago. So this is how I spent some time this afternoon. Along with knitting. Yes I haven't completely forgotten my knitting. I have completed one goal this year by trying a new craft with the paper mache. I can't believe that Joann Fabrics had coupons for 5$ off one item as long as it was at least 5$...so I managed to buy some Crayola paints for 2$ after using that coupon. I have been a customer of Joann's for many years and get the flyers sent to the house...and I have NEVER seen this coupon for 5$ off...5@ off a 25$ purchase...but not simply 5$ off...and what do you know...I go the newest coupon flyer for starting Saturday...and it had another 5$ off coupon. I have been trying to save money by couponing and this is a great deal for me! So anyhow...that's how we were able to get the paint for our paper mache project and we painted them last night. I haven't ever tried Paper Mache and I was excited to work on this with Rebekah. we had a blast. Dad took some pictures and I will post them later and get a final picture when everything is dry!

New Craft for me

Rebekah and I decided to make papermache masks today. We have balloons, newspaper strips, flour and water. Rebekah mixed the paste and together we plastered the newspaper strips in the balloon. They are drying now and we will finish the rest after they dry.

So much fun!!!
