January Blues

I just need to get these out of my system so I can move onward and upward...

If it's going to be this cold, we could at least have some snow with it.

Christmas is over and I've already forgotten what I got.

I've broken three of my new year's resolutions already.

My yard thought Spring was coming because of the warm period we had and now all of my new buds are gonna get their little selves frozen to death.

Christmas bills are starting to come, even though I swore off credit cards two years ago????

I had to uncheck all of the Christmas songs on my iTunes so they won't play and make me depressed.

I'm on a diet, so I can't eat my way to happiness.

Are you blue? Get it off your chest too!

    i'm just depressed that i have totally checked myself out of work mentally, but have to keep showing up to get things done until the baby comes. i seriously can't get out of bed in the mornings.

    your crayon illustration cracked me up, though!

    and oh my goodness... we're going to have to discuss lost every week together!

    Yep, I'm in a funk too! It seems to happen each January even though I go into the month on a high (my b-day is the 5th) and have great hopes for the rest of the month. Never quite pans out like I picture it though.

    Hope you start feeling better soon!!

    I'm feeling the post-Christmas let-down, too. And I'm ready for warm weather!

    If you start a petition to Mother Nature for warmer weather, I'll be the first to sign :)

    I personally think you look perfectly beautiful the way you are--no diets necessary! So I say, go have yourself a hot fudged sundae and smile!

    January is SO awful! I've been having to remind myself that it's just that time of the year & things will get better! They will!

Star Wars Gift Bag Tags

Two years ago, for Walker's Star Wars birthday, I created Yoda tags to attach to the gift bags for the party. Little did I know these bag tags would become so popular on Pinterest! To date, these tags have been repinned almost 500 times!!! So I thought since there's so much interest, I'd add them to my Etsy shop . So now, for just $8.00 - you can receive the file electronically and print them for yourself! I jazzed them up a bit with some sliver glitter puff paint on the light saber and some silver ribbon to attach to the dollar store bags. Print as many or as few as you want! So, if you are planning a Star Wars party, check them out ! And may the force be with you!

Baby Shower Inspiration Boards

I got all excited about the baby shower inspiration board contest over at Sippycups Are for Chardonnay , but only ended up submitting this first one on time. I managed to pull the second together this weekend just for kicks and loved the colors, so thought I'd share here. The first board is call "Nesting Instincts" and the second is "Over the Rainbow". I think I could get addicted to creating these things.
