coming up...

i thought i would write just a little bit about what is coming up on the craft blog i share with my sister-in-law, melissa, fanciful shenanigans. i haven't the foggiest on what she has up her sleeve, but this is what i have up mine from tomorrow until christmas. it is seriously exciting!!
fall flavored cake pops, ghostly cupcakes, recipes for sunday dinners (melissa as well), how-to costumes that are cheap and easy, treats to give to your child's classmates/teachers for halloween, 2 whole weeks of posts dedicated to making scarves, dressing up hats, making skirts, and repurposing different types of clothes, easy, cheap decor for fall, place settings for thanksgiving that are easy, cute and casual, pillow cases, more fall flavored cake pops, a wide array of christmas treats, decor, and a multitude of diy christmas presents for adults and for kids (i only make presents, it might be lame to some, but i put love in every stitch!!) i absolutely love having a craft blog where i can share what i do with my time and how i incorporate my kids into the making of my hobbies. i really hope you stay tuned...it will be delightful, i promise.

the bearded is now the beard-less...and a craft blog

jonathan decided it was time to shave his beard. he has had it for 2 1/2 years. he always would complain about wanting to. shave it, but i would remind him that he would have to shave every day. that would deter him until the next time. this time he was serious. so he did it. the boys were so excited!! i definitely had to document it! carson even got to shave when jonathan was ready for the razor, but carson shaved with a spoon!!

gettin' ready for the actual razor shave...and carson's first lesson in shaving...with a spoon!!

the baby butt smooth face...

i miss his beard. now when people ask me which one my husband is, i can't say,"the bearded man". then they can't say,"oh is he the one with the really nice beard?!" "yes, that is him," can no longer be my reply. oh well, maybe another time, in the winter when it's cold and he misses the warmth of the sweater-face. on to something else...
