Isn't Victoira an adorable East High School Cheerleader? She looks like she just stepped out of the "High School Musical" movie! :o) We were so excited to find a cheerleader uniform that goes to the knees - unheard of! She LOVES "High School Musical" and had so much fun dancing about with her pom-poms and cheers. Gotta love those cute ponytails too!
Desiree has been planning her Halloween costume for months! My friend, Heather Richey, has competed in numerous pageants and was so kind to let her daughter, Desiree, and another friend - wear her gowns, tiaras, and sashes.
I'm thinking this little girl (who JUST turned twelve - is looking way too grown up!)
They had so much fun curling their hair and getting ready for their night out on the town Trick-or-Treating together. We completed the ensemble with sparkling glitter hair spray!
Jacob was so excited to be "Ironman" this Halloween. We bought his costume a month ago and I think he has worn it at least 20 times! It is really comfortable and makes great Pajamas! I figure we're getting our money's worth out of this one.
He finally got to see the "edited" or "filtered" version of the movie with our CLEARPLAY DVD player. (One of the best inventions ever!! I can't watch a movie without a Clearplay filter these days). We got our Player from their website, but they are also available at Target. :o)
I love the third photo where I caught him jumping in mid-air so it looks like he is REALLY flying. :o)
We also had to get a shot with him and the very first pumpkin he carved by himself - he was so proud! I think it has the sweetest face.
Can't you hear the "Indiana Jones" theme music playing - "Du-du-du-dum, Du-du-dum"!
Yes - this Halloween Michael wanted to be "Indiana Jones". He has loved the movies since he was a little kid and was SO EXCITED to see the 4th one released this year! And of course "Indiana Jones" is one of his FAVORITE rides at Disneyland. We were able to put together this authentic looking costume thanks to some great family members. This is my mom's 10 ft black leather bullwhip (she bought it decades ago because she loved they way they cracked it in the "Man From Snowy River" and "Indiana Jones"!). The leather pouch is my dad's - it holds the gun powder and bullets for his muzzleloader rifle. And the classic fedora hat is my brother Scott's. :o) I was so excited when I found this worn dark brown jacket and safari shirt to complete the ensemble.
Michael learned to crack whips at scout camp this summer and is really good at cracking this one! (With everyone at a SAFE 20 foot distance of course!) I tried cracking it when I was about 12 and still remember the foot long red welt on my arm. :o)
What a handsome Indiana Jones Jr.!
Yesterday I finally finished this project from our "Super Saturday" craft day. :o) I was in charge of it on October 25th (one of the reasons I hardly posted in October). It was such a fun event with a delicious lunch and lots of wonderful women in attendance. I course I didn't have time to work on my personal projects because I was helping everyone with theirs and preparing/cleaning up the luncheon. So - yesterday we held a "Make Up" Super Saturday for those of us who were unable to finish or come to the activity. :o)
Oh - AND our entire Relief Society presidency got called that Friday night (as I was on my way home from shopping for the food and still had to pick up all the wood projects and bake food for the next day) and asked to speak on Sunday (the day after Super Saturday - UGH!) It all went well though - I just didn't sleep much Saturday night. :o) I gave a talk based on two WONDERFUL talks from this past General Conference and General Relief Society Meeting:
President Monson's "Finding Joy in the Journey" READ - LISTEN - WATCH
Elder Uchdorf's "Happiness - Our Heritage" READ - LISTEN - WATCH
Don't you love this elegant frame? I made it as a wedding gift for my dear friend who just got married. I love all of the fabulous projects we did at Super Saturday. My friend, Deidre Strom, has a wonderful website called "Wall Frenzee" and created all of the vinyl projects we made. She will make kits for groups or take personal orders. I LOVE that she even packages each project in bags with everyone's names labeled! We also made these adorable jean purses and a sweet lady taught a class on Pajama pants. Here are a few picts of our projects:
When I took these
pictures of Desiree getting her face painted at Disney's California Adventure - I
knew what paper I wanted to use!!! The elegant swirls on this beautiful Beau Jardin Blush paper perfectly matched her pretty face! You can see other fabulous layouts with the new Beau Jardin papers on the Bo Bunny Blog.
I also had fun adding some sparkle to the swirls with Stickles - to echo the glitter in the photos. I LOVE the Pink "frosting" Rhinestone border strips by Glitz. The silver letter stickers from Making Memories matched her sequined Mickey Mouse ears. :o)

As I scurried down the stairs in the morning - I was stunned by this amazing sunrise! The entire sky was painted with vibrant color. I've always felt that sunrises and sunsets are a symbol of the Lord's love - and fill my heart with joy and gratitude for the Lord's creations and blessings!
Here is the Halloween Album I designed for the Bo Bunny Blog. I had so much fun combining the 9x9 Chipboard album with the fabulous new "Clearly Mixed Up" Acrylic Album pieces. :o) They work perfectly for extra photos and journaling - adding dimension and interactive elements to your album. I used my Crop-A-Dile to lengthen the top and bottom holes so the Clear pieces would fit in the 9x9 Album. I also cut out the "B" from the My Word "Beach Album" for the Barnyard Boo page title.
Here are some tips when working with our new Clearly Mixed Up Albums:

Because Michael's team was ranked second in their division - they got to compete in the playoffs today. It was an exciting game and they won - 14 to 7!! The weather was beautiful - a balmy 70 degrees. Last year's playoffs were in the 40's. I caught the traditional dumping the water cooler over the team - Michael got soaked and he loved it! Afterwards they met at Iggy's Sports grill to celebrate their hard-earned victory! :o)
Next week will be the final CHAMPIONSHIP game - he can't wait!
This is the breathtaking view I get to see every morning as I gaze out my bedroom window! We are so excited about the beautiful new Oquirrh Mountain Temple (pronounced Oaker) they are building on the bluff just minutes from our home. It has been so neat to see it taking shape since they announced it three years ago (has it really been that long?). Most of the scaffolding has been removed to reveal the elegant granite exterior. I love these golden autumnal mornings!
Looking for some great Halloween Pages for all of those photos you are going to be taking Friday? Or do you have piles of Halloween photos from the last few years that still haven't been scrapbooked?

Saturday Michael's football team faced the Division's undefeated team in the 7th game of the season. It was an intense game - especially considering the fact that many of their team members outweighed ours by 50 -100 lbs! Michael played hard and did an awesome job! (He is #74 in the purple with the black Nike forearm guards). In the end - our team won and shut them out with a score of 7-0. We actually scored another touchdown, but a flag was called on the play.
We are now tied for first in our Division rankings and hope to go to the Championship playoffs in November!
I love this photo - the "THRILL OF VICTORY" as the team and coaches charged the field in celebration! Another great shot of Michael with his helmet off (very rare) - listening to a pep talk from the coaches. I'm LOVIN' my new telephoto lens!
Michael has worked so hard this season. He had 6 day a week practices all of August and has been practicing 3 days a week with a game on Saturday all of September and October. Yes - I've been pretty busy being a chauffeur and "football" mom, but we are enjoying it!
.....a cute little Pumpkin!!!
Today I decided made our favorite fall meal: "Dinner in a Pumpkin". We often make it on Halloween, but that day tends to get pretty busy - so I made it a week early.
If you like squash, you'll love this recipe. You pre-cook the ground beef and rice mixture, then bake it in a pumpkin. To serve, you scoop out some of the filling and some cooked pumpkin from the side - it is so delicious (it melts in your mouth!) Tip: If you plan on cooking this after Oct. 31st, make sure you purchase a pumpkin BEFORE Halloween. I've noticed that you can't find any after Nov. 1st. You'll want a pumpkin no taller than 9" or 10" (so it will fit well in your oven). For fun - you can paint a face on it (before baking), or draw one with permanent markers. :o)
I posted the recipe last year, but here it is again in case you missed it:
Dinner in a Pumpkin
1 Medium sized pumpkin
2 lb. ground beef
1 lg. onion
1/3 to 1/2 c. soy sauce (depending on your taste - It may seem like a lot, but it is well absorbed and enhances the flavor of the pumpkin)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 4 oz. can of mushrooms - drained (optional, I omit them. You can also saute celery with the onions)
2 T. brown sugar
4 c. cooked rice (brown or white)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Using a sharp knife, cut about 2-3 inches around the stem - leaving a 4-5 inch opening. Cut at a diagonal (towards the stem) so the top will not fall in. Remove seeds and pulp. Brown ground beef and chopped onion. In a medium bowl, combine meat mixture, pre-cooked rice, and remaining ingredients. Spoon mixture into pumpkin and replace top. Place pumpkin on a foil lined baking sheet. Bake about 2 hours on bottom oven rack, or until pumpkin flesh is soft and tender (test by inserting fork). Serve by scooping out some cooked pumpkin along with the meat filling. Sprinkle pumpkin with a little salt if desired. Enjoy this nutritious dinner before all of that Halloween candy! :o)

Here is the layout I designed for the "Button Challenge" on the Bo Bunny Blog. It was so fun to scrap this sweet photo of Jacob playing with his little trucks. Can you believe he was only 3?!?! Love those little cheeks! I had so much fun stitching these buttons on - kind of a "Wheel" motif going on here. I was surprised that I had perfectly matching embroidery floss in my stash too!

A few days ago Desiree wanted to surprise Nathan with a fresh batch of salsa from our garden tomatoes. She was slicing away when I heard her scream. I instantly knew she was injured. She had been chopping onions with our chopper and cut a deep gash down the tip of her finger along the nail. We rushed to the doctor and she got "glued" back together. She really needed stitches but it was too close to the nail and she is afraid of needles. It has been extremely painful the last few days, but she is finally feeling better. :o)
Here is the
layout - "Hit - Catch - Run" that I designed for the Bo Bunny "Sports" Challenge. I LOVE all of their awesome Sports collections and I NEED every one of them since Michael played Football, Basketball, Soccer, and Baseball this past year.
My mom took these great photos of Jacob at his "very first Baseball game ever!!" That's what he was saying in the first photo. Pretty exciting for a little 5 year old. In fact, he keeps asking me when baseball will start again. Spring seems so far way.... So, he is going to try Basketball this winter. :o)
Today we harvested about 25 more tomatoes from our garden and decided to make the Bearden's famous salsa recipe! This salsa is so fresh and delicious - what a treat! It is very flavorful and on the mild side (so my kids can eat it too). Feel free to spice it up by adding more Jalapeno Peppers and hot sauce if you want. :o)
Combine ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Let stand for an hour so the flavors can combine. Of course we never can wait and just dive right in with the chips!
Today is "World Card Making Day" - the first Saturday in October. To kick off the celebration, the Bo Bunny Design team made cards for the blog based on Dee's great sketch.
"World Card Making Day" is a holiday especially for card makers around the world to:
You can read more about it here and also see a gallery of cards from crafters around the world. So, join us - dust off your supplies and make a card today. Better yet - send that card to someone you love too!

I'm so excited about these new layouts. The first one, "Your Smile" features the gorgeous new Laundry Line from My Mind's Eye. I just LOVE the GLITTERY papers - check out the close-up photos so you can see all of the sparkle! These pages are embellished with velvet flowers, chipboard borders, rhinestones, chipboard bracket, die cut paper, and elegant rub-ons.
The second layout is perfect for your "BOO-tiful" girl all dressed up in her Halloween costume! These papers from a Little Yellow Bicycle were so fun to design with - love the Swirls!! I especially love the glitter brads (gotta have some BLING) and yummy orange stitched ribbon.
These pages are available from "A Page 4 All Seasons" by signing up for the "She Said" Autoship Kit Club. You'll get 4 beautiful pages shipped to your door every month! Now I'm off to design pages for December!!
Since these layouts are being shipped the day after Halloween, I thought it would be fun to design a Halloween layout! "Scaring Up Some Fun" features the Scenic Route Salem collection - complete with Spooky Stickers. I love the die cut paper and the dimensional snap and eyelet.
I designed the second layout with the BRAND NEW Granola line from Basic Grey. (A special thanks to BG designer Amber for letting me "borrow" her Granola papers - since these haven't even hit the stores yet!!) Aren't these papers and colors wonderful?!?! "
"A Free Spirit" is perfect for photos of your guy! I had fun adding pictures of Jacob from our trip to California last week - the colors coordinated perfectly. These pages are embellished with snaps, eyelets, journaling card, metal tag rim, and transparency. I hope you have fun writing on the "Random (but important) Thoughts" journaling card - I did!
You can sign up to receive these pages from "A Page 4 All Seasons" and other great layouts monthly by joining the "He Said" Autoship Kit Club. :o)
Hooray - it's finally Autumn - my favorite time of the year! Of course Pumpkin treats are synonymous with Fall in my book. Today I baked a few loaves of yummy Pumpkin Bread to share with some neighbors. Can't you smell the pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves?!?! I wish I could share a loaf with all of you! :o)
Well, I guess the second best thing is sharing the recipe so you can bake some of your own. It is such an easy recipe and comes out perfectly moist every time.
Pumpkin Bread
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix wet ingredients. Sift dry ingredients, beat into the wet and mix until well combined. Grease 2 loaf pans and pour 1/2 of batter into each. Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Enjoy! (I always use a large can and bake 4 loaves so I can keep a loaf for my family and give a few away)
Here is the layout I designed for the "Sewing" challenge on the Bo Bunny blog.
I just love this photo of Jacob!! I can't believe this was 3 years ago when he was only 3. Look at those adorable cheeks!!! Such a sweet photo of him and his FAVORITE toy - a BALL!!
Everyone knows that I LOVE to use my sewing machine on my scrapbook layouts. In fact, I sew more on paper than I do on fabric these days. How strange -since I sewed a large part of my wardrobe in high school, made all of my formals (about a dozen), made my own wedding dress, my daughter's blessing dress, Desiree's entire nursery set, curtains, couch cushions, and more!. Now I use my machine to hem pants, do mending and service projects these days.
On this layout I used the machine to straight stitch around the red circle and zig-zagged alone the bottom edge. Then I had stitched the green, yellow and red circles with embroidery floss. Hand embroidery always reminds me of sunny afternoons when I was five. My mom was on bed rest with her fifth child and she taught me how to embroider. It is so fun to look back at my projects - I'll have to post some. :o)
Tip for hand sewing on paper:
Place a mouse pad under your paper and pre-pierce the holes in the pattern/shape that you want to sew - using a pin, needle, or push pin. (I just used various circle templetes from my CM Circle Cutter). Then simply stitch though the holes. This takes the guess-work out of sewing on paper and you get perfect stitching every time!
Supplies - Bo Bunny Star Struck Papers: Dot and Stripe; Double Dot Papers: Licorice Dot, Sugar Dot, and Harvest Dot; Double Dot Chipboard: Clover and Brilliant Blue; Black Chipboard letters - American Crafts; Felt Stars - Kaiser; DMC Embroidery Floss, Black ink.
Aren't these new Bo Bunny "Clearly Mixed Up Albums" fun!?!?! I can't wait to "play" with them and create. :o)
I'm so excited about this wonderful transparencies that coordinate with all of the new lines!! We asked for them and they created - WooHoo!
Here is another fresh and bright collection: "Flirty".
Don't you LOVE these new papers from the Bo Bunny "Winter Whisper" line?!?! The soft blues and browns are so warm and I love the snowflakes. What a COZY collection.
These papers almost make me excited for Winter and snow!!
Here is another great new release from Bo Bunny - "Sweetie Pie". It is a fresh and fun collection that is perfect for photos of your little "Sweetie Pies". Great for Valentine's Day pictures too. I love the pink/green/red color combo.
This is a layout I designed for the new catalog. I can't believe how perfectly the papers match this picture of the girls in their new Pink and Red Valentine shirts. :o)
Here is a sneak peek at the new Bo Bunny "Unforgettable" Collection. I love the Black and Off-White color scheme of this line. It looks so elegant and is perfect for timeless photos of weddings, showers, prom, dances, portraits, etc. It looks great when mixed with a little color too! I also love these "Enchanted Evening"stickers that Amber Packer designed for this line!
I also designed this Class Kit for the Bo Bunny Catalog. Perfect for any special occasion!This will be available for purchase through your local scrapbook store.
This layout is a clue about where we are today........
You guessed it - DISNEYLAND!!! We are so excited to spend the next three days here at the "Happiest Place on Earth"
This layout was an assignment for the Bo Bunny Blog using the "Splendor Collection". I thought the Red/Black/Yellow color scheme went perfectly with this photo of the girls (meeting Minnie Mouse during our first family trip to Disneyland 4 years ago). Can you believe how much they have changed?
Bo Bunny Supplies Used: Splendor Stripe, Splendor Paisley, Splendor Cut Outs, Double Dot Licorice Paper, Double Dot Licorice Chipboard Letters, Bella Journee Rub-ons (Zig Zag Stitching), Gardenia Rub-on (Arrow), and Holly Jolly Brads (Red Swirl)

I LOVE these sweet photos my brother took of Desiree twirling in her beautiful baptism dress. Was this really 4 years ago!?!? I can't believe she will be 12 in a matter of days. These elegant swirl papers were perfect for these photos! I love this song too.
Supplies Used: Bo Bunny Beau Jardin Clover Paper (front and back), Double Dot Clover Dot Paper, All Stuck Up Flowers - Licorice. Rhinestones - Allstarco, Fonts - Porcelain and Beautiful ES, Ribbon - Offray, Black Pen - Zig. For the Die Cut paper shape - I traced the Noteworthy Ave Artisan Pink Paper by Making Memories.
Last weekend Nathan took the kids hiking up Corner Canyon in Draper to Ghost Falls. Unfortunately he somehow came in contact with poison ivy (yes, we now know that it does grow in Utah and around the falls). He noticed a little rash on his arms Monday. By Tuesday his eyes were starting to itch and swell, and by 3:00 am Wednesday, his left eye was completely swollen shut and the right one followed by 8:00 a.m. The doctor gave him a steroid shot and it stopped the rapid progression, but the swelling didn't diminish until he received a blessing Thursday morning. We are happy to report that he is almost back to normal!!
The swelling from his allergic reaction was pretty scary - as you can see you can barely tell he has eyelashes on his left eye! He couldn't even see to watch a movie! (He gave me permission to post this photo)
Then it was my turn for some fun! Thursday night I couldn't sleep because I had a toothache. I called my dentist Friday, but they were just closing up the office for the weekend. Fortunately our good friend and neighbor is a dentist and opened up his office to give me an emergency Root Canal. Yes - what a fun way to spend your Friday night. Unfortunately we discovered that I actually needed Root Canals on TWO teeth!! One of the roots was calcified too and caused intense pain in the nerve. I started to shake uncontrollable and my heart rate shot through the roof. He finally got me calmed down with laughing gas and gave me more pain relief. He hooked me up to a heart monitor after that episode. We finally got home around midnight . I am still really sore, but the swelling is down and half my face isn't numb anymore.
As you can see - we really did have a "Swell" week - a little too much for my taste!
