Wordless Wednesday: It's All a Blur...

Ramblings...

School started back last week. I am exhausted just thinking about doing homework, packing lunches, washing uniforms, dropping off, picking up....times TWO this year! Yesterday Henry and I worked on his first project of 1st grade. He helped pretty well, but it was obvious {from his SUPER short attention span} that I did not pass on my love of all things crafty to him:) Maybe if I start working with him now, Eli will like to craft with me one day!

Other than working on that one school project, I have been in a terrible craft rut for the past few weeks. I think the crazy-busy summer that we had is finally catching up to me! I have a feeling I am going to be napping with Eli everyday this week:) It also doesn't help that I still have a major craft fail sitting on my dining room table mocking me every time I walk by it. I hate when I have such huge expectations for a project and then it fails miserable...especially because this was supposed to be a gift for someone. I guess I will just start over from the beginning and hope it works better the second time:)

We made homemade grape jelly about two weeks ago. I took some great pictures of the boys picking the grapes, and I have some pretty good shots of the yummy jelly when we got finished. I just don't have the motivation to get them loaded and put into a post....maybe one day this week I will!

Clutter drives me crazy! I hate it! And it seems to be everywhere in my life right now.

*The dining room is a mess thanks to my craft fail.

*The kitchen is a wreck thanks to the pile of dirty dishes that I so don't want to load into the dishwasher.

*The laundry room is a wreck thanks to three loads of laundry that really need to be folded.

*My purse is a wreck thanks to the millions of receipts, coupons, and toys that manage to make their way into my purse but never find their way out!

I signed Eli up for gymnastics...he started yesterday. He had a fun time and got SUPER sweaty exploring the whole gym the first day. I might share a picture or two tomorrow if I managed to get any that weren't a blur of sweaty little boy running all over the place:)

I haven't been a very good bloggy friend lately, but I'm hoping that I can get back into the swing of thing this week. Hopefully I will be able to respond to a few emails and hop over to visit after I take care of all my clutter and get a nap:)

First Day of School

They were both all smiles when we left home this morning...I'm hoping they will be all smiles when we pick them up too:)
