No Sun Today

Waiting for the Thunderstorms to start here. Got my grocery shopping done early this morning so i wouldnt have to lug in food in the rain. There was hardly anyone at Walmart it was so nice an peaceful. Now im here browsing as usual. My fun find for the day is these cute Luxe rubons. If you havent used their rubons they are great. They go on so smooth..as usual no im not affiliated with Luxe just an enabler. I like to share my favorite things with my scrappy friends. They have tons of other great designs too!

Eeeekk

Yesterday started one of my favorites times of the year. Of course it has to do with shopping haha. Anyway...if you havent checked it out yet and your kids need some clothes go to Old Navy..its their 40% off baby/kids sale. They do this around this time every year and i love it because you can get such good deals! I think the kiddos are pretty much set for the summer now unless they both have ridiculous growth spurts before then haha.
On another note CHA is coming (craft show for those who dont know) and there is so much fun new stuff. My favs this time around i think will be Sassafras Lass(of course), Basic Grey and Heidi Swapp. Between this and the Old Navy sale i went crazy at im going to drive myself broke haha...good thing the scrappy stuff doesnt come out right away..well not all of it anyway.
Ok enough mindless rambling....ill share a few layouts with you ....just a few of the more recent
