About Me

My photo
Hello, my name is Jamie. I am a stay at home mom of two from Coeur d'Alene, ID. I have 2 children, a girl and a boy. We are fortunate to be able to homeschool and this year we began the new adventure of high school. I am blessed to have been married to my soul mate for over 17 years now and look forward to countless more years and memories. My favorite thing to do is to scrapbook and I have been scrapping for over 22 years.I enjoy learning new techniques and discovering that I can never push myself too far. When it comes to scrapbooking I firmly believe that there are no rules except the ones you break!

Annie

We had the opportunity to see CYT - Christian Youth Theater put on the play Annie! These kids were so talented and it was so much fun watching them perform. It was such a fun field trip!









Thank you for hanging out with us for a moment!

Spirit Week at NICS

We had a lot of fun with Spirit Week at school! The first day was decade day. Grace was dressed in neon brights to represent the 80s!


Elijah wasn't too excited to dress up but he did wear his star wars t-shirt. He is representing the late 70s and 80s and every decade since then!


Elijah's class really got into spirit week.




Next up was Super Hero day. Grace didn't have any super hero costumes but was told she could make up her own. So off to school as Super Rainbow Dash she goes!


It's halloween and we decided to stay home and hand out tracks and candy. The kids had a blast!


Grace wore her Evie costume from Descendants. She wore this again to school the next day as it was Character day for spirit week.


The last day of spirit week was School pride - they were to wear their school colors. We didn't have much so I went off to the craft store and bought yellow t-shirts and blue iron on vinyl. 



It was also show and tell day for Grace. She brought in her Disney pins from our trip to Walt Disney World to show her classmates.



Here's the 4th grade class in their school colors!



Over all it was a great week of school and the kids enjoyed all the dressing up!


Thanks for stopping by!

October Vaca - Woodland Park Zoo

It's the day the kids have been waiting for, it's time to go visit the Woodland Park Zoo!




I'm sure this tractor used to be a lot bigger???


My two adorable turtles!


Take me for a ride turtle Grace!





Two kids in a cage!













Poor Gorilla looked bored and lonely!


Love the penguins!



We got to feed the penguins! Eww gross raw fish!





We even got to learn about the penguins before we left from one of the zookeepers!
















We even got to see a baby giraffe!




Some one rescue those baby birds!


It was a great day at the zoo. We had perfect weather and no crowds - we couldn't have asked for better! Love the weekday vacations!


Waiting for dinner time - we are not tired at all!!!





Thai Ginger


Nate met us at the Cheesecake Factory for?

Ha ha cheesecake of course!!!


Grace and I love watching Project Runway, so when we saw the Michael Kors store we just had to take a pic!


There's time for a little swimming on Saturday before we head home!




On the way home, we had to have a treat!



Well, that's it for this vacation, now it's back to the real world, so sad!



Blessings,
