mojo and stories...or mojo stories

well, the April Scrap Mojo challenge is up.  Imaginary Friends is the theme, with animal crackers as the second part of the challenge.  You all should go on over and take a peek at what the other mojo girls are doing-pretty flippin' cool!  I'm so excited to be part of another stupendous craft team!  

True Love ( made with the Dozen's March kit-I am IN LOVE with this kit!)

 

and an up close shot-looky-looky at my hot boyfriend, he's a beefcake, huh?  Jealous?  I know, it's okay... (hey, check out my white legs-sexxxxxyyy...)

And the first challenge of the month is up over at Category Stories as well.  This theme is Bedtime Rituals.  Come over and play, we have an awesome prize from Paper Pixie!! Often I'll have cup of tea before bed (or while crafting late into the night) and so this is dedicated to that cup of tea...

As I mentioned in the last post about my friend and blog design helper, Shawn over at Eclectic Whimsy is redesigning the Category Stories blog, so check back in and see what new and amazing designs she so generously donated to us!  If you're thinking of redesigning your blog, give her a jingle, she's so sweet!

Just getting ready for Easter over here. My parents are here and we're so excited to be able to spend some time with them! 2 weeks of forced talent shows, piggy back rides and impromptu dance parties my dad will be ready to head back home...

Here's a peek through the keyhole into our world and things that are making me smile!

I love him! I ordered him for the girls bedroom! But he goes with Easter, too...

I also ordered this from the same etsy seller, totally my girls; nature and sewing, braids and whismicalness...

good ol' Martha...

and look at my smarty-pants...

McKaylah's homeschool science class, last week was the respiratory system and here is her own respiratory model using a bottle, 2 straws for the trachea, 2 balloons for lungs and a balloon as a diaphragm.  The week before was the circulatory system and she did blood typing on microscopes. 

and the Little's found a caterpillar which big sis determined to be a moth, not a butterfly, and they made a little home for him (he was named Sammy) and are eagerly awaiting the time when he makes his chrysalis.

 

Little sis loves to cook. "Little Chef" has started making one meal a week (okay, with help from me obviously).  Sometimes she picks something on a country we're studying, this night she felt like BBQ.  We made handmade sweet potato fries with a sweet and tangy bbq seasonings and handmade chive-garlic turkey burgers.

The girls also took a horseback riding clinic and started a new gym and swim class.  It's been a busy week!

   

heeeeyyy cowboy...do I have something on my nose?

Have a great week!
