Thanks for stopping by my blog! The hats I wear include wife (to a retired Army field artilleryman), mom to three super busy teens, and high school math teacher. In my “free time” I love cooking, reading, creating (mostly papercrafts), photography, travelling, and exploring the PNW with my family…you know, all the usual things!
I hope you’ll find some inspiration, entertainment, and something that makes you smile here. I look forward to hearing from you!

Confetti Banner {June’s Paper Pumpkin}
I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned a time or ten how much I love Paper Pumpkin, Stampin’ Up’s subscription monthly crafting kit. If you’d like a creative escape for an hour or so each month, it’s totally worth the $20 cost. … Continue reading
Washi Altered File Folders

Summer Screentime Checklist
So my kids, while not thrilled, were at least mildly happy to see this Summer Screentime Checklist reappear on the frig this summer. During the school year, we stick to the no screentime on weekdays rule, but in the summer, … Continue reading
Mochas, Flowers, and Chocolate..a Perfect Gift!
Here’s a quick idea for a fun friend gift… I dropped this off at a friend’s house to celebrate the end of school (she’s a teacher). It would be a great hostess gift if you’re headed to a 4th of … Continue reading
