No, I haven't dropped off the face of the earth

... however, it appears on my blog as if I have. I've been so NOT posting lately and reason being is, well... I just haven't had time. See, I've been working like a mad woman on thirty-one logos the past few weeks. Remember the few that I posted a week or so ago? We'll I've done more... and more... and even more. I am SO incredibly blessed to be able to have this opportunity to do something that I love, something that I vowed I would promote this year (my business) and get paid for doing it. Can it get any better? I think not. (well, I'm sure it could but I'm just thankful for what I have so far).

So, you probably are not going to see me much in the few weeks approaching because I've got a lot of stuff going on right now. So here's my chance to take a plug at a couple things coming up...

#1 - our consignment begins March 5th. If you have kids, know someone who has kids, have grandkids, etc. and you live in the Shelby area, please come give us a visit. Click on the logo to go to our website & see our hours.

#2 - Digital Art - this is where my creativeness has been coming out lately... with the logos & other things. If you have a business or need of graphic design, wedding invitations, save the dates, birthday invites, etc... check out my facebook page for Kendra's Creations. (I tried to put a FB badge thingy on the side bar, but it would never load the picture, so for now, just click the link... works the same). You can always click on my website as well. You can see everything there.

Toodles for now!

Valentine's Day treats Part 2

Ok... remember where I posted about these cute little Valentine's Day favors here? Well, I made them and they turned out SO cute! These are one of my favorite crafts I've made in a while. They are so easy to make & I made them for all 3 kids for about $10. Take a look...

A Little Under the Weather

I've been blog-AWOL this week, and well, sort of the past few weeks. Sorry. Last week I was helping nurse a sick little 4 yr old back to health and in the process of that I got something myself. I haven't felt this bad in a really, really long time. I went to the doctor yesterday & she tested me for strep but it came back negative, much to everyone's surprise that took a look at my bright red throat yesterday. She gave me an antibiotic anyways & said hopefully this will help. It has. Today is actually the first day I've felt like sitting up for more than 5 min. I'm tired of laying around but have no desire to do anything else, or anything productive for that matter. But I thought I would blog.

I've also been quite busy working on logos...you might have noticed my new one in the upper right corner. These new ones have been for several consultants from Thirty-One (ya know, the bags). See, my friend Renee asked me to create a logo for her team. So I did. She then posted it on the national director page or something like that & I've got about 7 emails so far for people wanting me to do a logo for them. Yay! Here's a few that I've completed so far and working on 3 more at the moment. Loving this... I'm happy to say that these logos are going to be proudly displayed on their shirt at their national convention thingy in July. Woop, woop!

Me & the kids worked on a couple projects today to keep ourselves busy and here's the final result...

Crafts & Reflections

I sit here, awaiting another day with the kids out of school again tomorrow and I need to find something for us to do. I've searched the internet near & far (well, not really, but I've searched) and here's what I've found.

Fan-tastic Snowflakes

Paper Portraits

Enchanted Learning (tons & tons to pick from)

As I reflect on the past few days at home, these are some of the highlights....

#1 - we've had LOTS of family time

#2 - Corby has been home for 2 1/2 of those days... yay!

#3 - the kids have had plenty of time to play in the snow

#4 - we've ate really well this week

#5 - SLEEPING IN!!!!!

#6 - I got my Disney scrapbook finished

#7 - we've been lazy & haven't felt bad about it

#8 - we have a couple pretty funny videos to watch and remember our crazy January snow!

More sledding and a video

Ok so we were at home again today and thanks to the ice that fell last night, we had the perfect path for sledding today. This is the kind of sledding that you only get every few years at our house when we get ice during a snow storm. All 5 of us are attached together and sled from the top of our neighbors driveway, down the hill, across the road and down to the end of the culdesac at the end of our neighborhood. For those of you that have been to my house before know that it's a pretty long way... but it's "snow" much fun (I know that was kinda dorky).

Here's a few pics from today & the best video we've done in a while.

The above picture is a preface to the video. Corby had the grand idea that I should sit in the front sled backwards & film us going down the hill...so I did. Brave. I know. I was in the front with Corby "steering" me and he had Kensley between his legs and Chandler was behind him holding onto his feet and Carter is fishtailing in the back holding onto Chandler's legs. This is great!

And one more of just Corby & the kids
