Does anyone want to make these with me?

My friend Steph in Alaska made these magnetic alphabet tiles for a Relief Society Super Saturday project and I think they are super cute!

The photos below are from my friend Heather' blog -- but it's private -- so I copied her photos so you could see how cute they are.

Heather said that her kids love them. They are practicing their spelling and having fun with them. Heather says that her front door has metal in it, and that her kids use the magnets on there too.

I'm not sure how much it would cost to make them, but I can't imagine it would be too pricey. They are made on 1 x 1 inch tiles with a magnetic backing. Steph emailed my the template to print the letters out. I am happy to buy the supplies in bulk if anybody else wants to make them.

If you want to come craft later this month, let me know by Sept. 12th.

As always, everyone's invited.

2nd Birthday Celebration at the Firm

Since last year's birthday celebration at Mike's firm was so much fun, we decided to do it again.

We had a delicious Dairy Queen ice cream cake and a fun time singing, visiting and laughing.

All of the ladies just love Jasper to pieces and had fun as he entertained them.

People would ask Jasper a question and he would say, "No". It became a little comedy hour to see what questions people could come up with for Jasper to answer.

One partner said, "Jasper, should we give your dad a raise next year?" Jasper gave his standard answer for the hour "No." (I quickly chimed in YES!)























Grandma Sharon brought in a broken telephone and he had a lot of fun doing some pretend phone calls with Mike's secretary.

She also gave him a CD player that he loves to carry around the house and jam out to. I call it his boom box.

And then there was the immense fun found in taking the lid on and off of the orange juice. It's the little things.

Of course his favorite things was seeing his daddy. He claps every time that we drive by the firm.

Happy Birthday Jasper --again!

1st Birthday Celebration at the Firm

Well I am only 1 year behind on this post. :>

Last year we had a little party for Jasper at Mike's office.


















































Sometimes I feel like he is the firm mascot. All of the ladies love to know how he is doing and see how big he is getting.

Of course Mike is a proud pappa and loves to show off "Mini Mike", as they call Jasper at the firm.

Grandma Sharon gave him a fun basketball set for bath time, and Rosey gave him a phone that lights up and talks back -- he loves both of them.

Applique Obsession

In case you haven't notice, I've gone a little overboard on applique lately. :>

Since Jasper had a water party, I sewed a "2" on one of his swim shirts.

I figure if nothing else when we look back on photos of his party we'll always know it was his 2nd.

It was so easy, that I got carried away and whipped one up for celebration at Mike's firm.

Someone stop me before I get a hold of his PJ's!
