Camp Mom - the final countdown

I like to refer to August as

Camp Mom,

at my house.

Regular camp is over, and I am the official camp counselor around here...now.

Ok, so we've done just about everything on our list this year.

We've gone here, here and here...and even here.

So, today, we discovered a great new art supply shop.

I just love a good art store...so inspiring, everything is so colorful...so new and clean....

we picked up some Prismacolor markers,  I have never really worked with markers before, but I had fun with the colors we bought and this little drawing.

the only bad thing? there was no Starbucks anywhere....in sight....

and we need a lot of that, at Camp Mom....

Enjoy your day!

xxoo

How do you....beat the heat

"Dirty hands, iced tea, garden fragrances thick in the air...

and a blanket of color before me...who could ask for more...?

Bev Adams

Even my garden needs a tall glass of  lemonade today...

Wow, it's hot! They have predicted record heat here today...

102 degrees....

How am I going to beat the heat?

I am going to run through the sprinkler...

 then pour myself a tall glass of pink lemonade,

and lounge on a blanket in the shade....

with my catalogs and magazines...

a nice lazy summer day...

What do you do to beat the heat?

Happy Valentine's Day

Love is All you Need....

Surround yourself with things that make you happy today....

Have a Happy Valentine's Day - XOXOXO

My Other Love

Ok, for those of you that know me, you know that my other love in this world (besides my family and friends) is Starbucks. I love the whole Starbucks experience and can often be found there several times a day...okay, i may be a little jittery....

but nothing beats a hot cup of coffee, a friendly face...and a little me time!

So, this morning, when I got my usual Venti Skim Misto, I was delighted to find a NEW limited-time design on my white cup, just in time for Valentine's Day....

The Starbucks Love Cups, are meant to encourage customers to revisit starbucksloveproject.com, and create their own love drawings. And,  for every drawing submitted, Starbucks will donate five cents, up to one million drawings, to the Global Fund. The contributions will build on the achievements through Starbucks partnership with (RED) tm  by using the inspiration of love to make a difference in the world.  

Through projects like these, Starbucks has generated enough money to buy more that 14 million days of medicine for people living with HIV in Africa.

So go grab a cup of LOVE, and enjoy...See you there!

The Groundhog was right!

6 More Weeks of Winter

Well, while we snuggled up on the couch to watch American Idol last night, my girls were delighted that Mr. Groundhog was right!!! We sat together and watched a beautiful snowfall blanket our lawn....what a beautiful peaceful snow. The kiddies were hoping for a snow day! But we woke up and the roads were clear...and all was a go for school! So I am here at home busy searching the internet....I am actually looking for ideas for my little 4 year old's bedroom....PINK, PINK, PINK!

I am in love with Paula Press Woodland Fabric...beautiful browns, grays, oranges and PINK!!!!
perfect for a little girl who loves pink, don't you think???

i mean how beautiful is this chair?

It's actually a pillow that Ms. Prass created,

but I really want one for my office...

In the meantime, I thought this pen and ink drawing of my mom, stephanie smith mailto:smithstephaniesmith@cbmoves.com, and her dog holly would be appropriate for our snowy day
....have fun....
