liv’s newness today are these fabulous fabric tags.
(say that five times fast.)
as you can see, I am still incredibly in love with the woodoodled papers too..
(click on the layout for full list of credits.)
I am still just so in love with this pic!!
I did touch it up, just a smidge. like removing the speakers that were in the background.. I am a little anal that way. it was a spontaneous shot, I didn’t want it to be too posed or orchestrated, so those things that end up bugging me when all is said and done need to be dealt with afterwards.
it’s the way I am.
I have this relationship with photoshop that I thought I would never have. I was SO AFRIAD of it!! but I can tell you, that getting my feet wet with photo editing was what got me comfortable and excited.
I think we all know that I got that start at jessicasprague.com.
(and if you didn’t know that, well, welcome to my blog!!)
jess is doing her yearly free class, to help us all learn, for the experienced ones, it helps us to get excited, for the newbies, it helps show them that this is possible!!
I have signed up, you should too!!
among other things going on here..
I am up to my neck in soccer stuff. I am the newest (insert title here that has to do with age group coordinating) with our region AYSO board. my two youngest love soccer!! it takes involved parents to make it happen. seriously, in EVERY SINGLE AREA. if you have kiddos who love something, get involved. it makes their experience so much better.
we finished our last day of little laker cheer in prep for the parade tomorrow.
yesterday, peyton wasn’t really much about the whole “participation” thing, aside from clapping.
today I might have bribed her with a slurpee if she would just raise her hands!!!
she did.
lynn was selected to be the filer for their little stunting group. she loves it. all she has been doing for the past 24 hours now is cheering.
she is sad that today is the last day.
we’ve also had a couple of days of dam fun.
and the bathroom re-do has begun.
it is such a wonderful sight to look up, and have WHITE ceilings!!
that’s right, there is an “s” on the end of ceiling.. I decided that while I was at it, I might as well tackle the ceiling in our master bathroom too. I mean, I did do our bedroom last summer. it might be about time..
I only wish I dared (i.e. had the energy) to paint ALL of the ceilings white… 6 down, 6 more to go?
so we are saying farewell to “botany beige” (we won’t “miss” it, since it is ALL OVER THE REST OF THE FREAKING HOUSE. (someday…) and hello to “turquoise mist”.
we are having so much fun this summer!! I am so happy with how slowly it is going. I just love having the girls all home, having non-stop fun, and little drama.
we are making the most of it, and wearing ourselves out most days..
(if this post seems a little dejavu-ish to you, well, that’s probably because you saw all of this already on instagram, and I would apologize, but hey, now you have the story to go with it, right?)
(you’re welcome.)
