happy shopping :)
{robyn}
hey everyone. I've been taking a little break from the blog, in both personal & my shop. Working on lots of kits for July & a few other things on the side, trying to give my kids some attention... you know, just being summer lazy. Here's the basic highlights happening around here since I've been here last, we finished Lydia's tball "season" {4 games}, we finished Evan's regular baseball season {they finished 3rd in their final tournament}, we celebrated Evan's 11th birthday & Dan & I celebrated our 19th anniversary! Oh & lots of hanging out at home & swimming in our pool.
not too exciting. We usually don't get around to too much until the baseball season is over & we're now scrambling to fit in a mini vaca with the kids to a local waterpark with some friends. It's kinda hard for Dan to get away from work right now, so a few days is all we're going to get this summer. Should be lots of fun though.
Something else I'm personally working on is cleaning up my eating. After a couple months of baseball & some celebrations with beer {& a few martinis} my stomach is looking a little more "eh" than I'd like. Not that it's ever been super model quality... haha! But seriously, after working hard in the early part of the year to do more whole foods & not so much processed, I could tell a pretty big difference in my ab area. Not so much soft & more definition. I've been back at about a week or so & am definitely starting to see the change. Hopefully over the next few weeks I'll be back to where I started. No more beer for me for a while ;)
not the best illustration, since I have 3 different suits on here, but the first was in January, the second in March when I'd been doing my "clean eating" for a while & the third was mid June. In all the pictures I'm either the same weight or within 2 pounds.
So it's lots of oatmeal, chicken, greek yogurt, fruit & veggies & smoothies for this girl! Oh & I've been really consistent over the last 6 months with doing 3-4 miles at least 5 days a week & have recently been trying to add more ab & leg work also & sometimes some jump rope added in!
My fave treats right now: oatmeal with peanut butter, honey & cinnamon mixed in or frozen bananas blended with PB2 {powdered peanut butter}, cocoa, whey powder & almond milk {it's like a milkshake!}
ok, enough randomness... have a great day!

We were engrossed in 5th grade boys basketball all day Saturday, so I didn't get to post my newest dollar kit that's up at P&Co. Oh yeh, love me some labels...
these coordinate perfectly with the Mod Pop papers. You get all 25 in .png format, but for those of you hybrid lovers out there, I've also set up a printable .pdf for you as well.

I've also decided to try my hand at Project Life again this year. I need something that is going to be fairly low-key & I'm not going to put too much pressure on myself to do it how I think may be the "right way". I just want to record what memories I have available, maybe everything won't be perfect, some days & weeks may be not so great, but I'll still have it there for us. So, I'm planning all digital, using Karla Dudley's 8.5x11" Everyday Storytellers templates for the base & my plan is to print at home so I can put them right into a binder & have them to look through right away. That way, they're not stuck on my computer, waiting to send to get printed. So far... I've done the cover page.

by {me} this was a photo I took of Dan, Evan & one of Evan's friends last week when we took a little trip to St Louis. We went to see a Cardinals game {where our high school choir sang the National anthem} & then the next day took a tour of Busch Stadium. This was on the field, near home plate. Seriously awesome.
we still have so much we want to do this summer... I hope we can fit it all in!
remember everything new is 30% off :)
also... just so you know, this is going on this weekend at DHD
whooohoooo! sounds like fun {even though I'm not remotely ready for Christmas}
