As promised, here are a few shots of our Project Disney 2010 album. Photos aren’t that great, but oh well, you’ll get the idea. What I really love about this is being able to add in random memorabilia with the photos. And it’s so easy!! I did this entire album in about three hours. I DO still have journaling to add, and there were a few extra pictures that I.. Read More
How awesome are these photos? Would you like to know what they were taken with? AN IPHONE…. yep, you heard me right. An iphone. Taken underwater. With this case: A LifeProof case. They run about $80 and are made for underwater (and everything else for that matter!). This will most definitely be the next case I purchase for my phone!!
Last night, Justin and I went to a wedding in Florence (the first of three that we will be attending this summer….guess it’s wedding season for our friends!). One of my sweet friends from high school got married, and it was so much fun seeing several of the people that I graduated with. Here we are all decked out and ready to go: Of course, the girls had to pose.. Read More
Today was a craft day at the West house. The littles painted suncatchers: And I came VERY close to finishing our Project Disney 2010 album. Why “Project” Disney, you ask? Well, my dear blog reader, I’ll tell you. Becky Higgins is a great, famous person in the world of scrapbooking and she developed the “Project Life” method of scrapbooking. In a sense, it’s a fancy photo album. She has designed.. Read More
A couple of weeks ago, I was able to score some indoor rock climbing tickets for super cheap. Kyndall always loves the rock walls at the beach, so I thought this would be right up her alley. Libby isn’t into the adventure junkie stuff, so she decided to hang with my mom for the day. After dropping Libby off with Gra-Gra, we headed out. And this is how Kyndall.. Read More
After one last day of VBS fun, and then a little pool time, I joined some friends at a jewelry party. The jewelry was Initial Outfitters. They have tons of gorgeous stuff. Like this amazing bangle bracelet: And these super cute charm necklaces: If you haven’t heard of them before, check them out at www.initialoutfitters.com. (I, unfortunately, am not connected to this company in any way and am not.. Read More
Tonight, we checked one thing off our “Summer Manifesto” and are well on our way to checking off another one. We rode all around the farm and picked blackberries. Kyndall loved it. Libby was too hot, and just wanted to ride the 4-wheeler! K with a hanful of blackberries that she picked all by herself! L with a handful of blackberries that her daddy and I picked! L took this..

This is what we do for fun on the Thursday night before a big rodeo. The county blocks off the street and we have an old-fashioned ho-down. OK, it’s not quite as redneck as that. They do block off the street and one of the local bands played while everyone danced. There were some country line dances going on, as well as a little of the cha-cha slide. The girls.. Read More
Last night we took the girls camping out behind the house. Remember that we live on about 400 acres of farm land, so when I say behind the house, take that loosely. Justin worked most of the afternoon finding the perfect spot, bringing rocks from the creek to circle the fire, cutting wood for the fire, etc. The result was a perfect camping spot overlooking our pond. We grilled hot.. Read More
To kick off our summer, we took a trip down to the beach with my mom and sister. We left the boys at home, so we were a little worried about how all our stuff (beach chairs, toys, nets, etc.) was going to make it down to the beach, but we managed. Okaloosa island is a small stretch of beach between Destin and Fort Walton and it was beautiful. Libby.. Read More
