Sketchbook 4 - Sketch #3 - everyday a family

Using a bunch of My Minds Eye (just loving their new lines!) I did this layout for Kelly Purkey's Studio Calico Sketchbook class.  The awesome thing is that with each sketch she gives you at least three different view points from a starting sketch.  This time I went with uber basic.  All the paper is MME except for the polka dot velum which is American Crafts Dear Lizzy (another line I can't seem to get enough of!) The embellishments are also from MME and the days of the week are from my old stash made by Maya Road.

First Ice Cream Cone

We have a local farm in MD that isn't too far from the house called South Mountain Creamery.  We decided to check out their open house back in April of 2011 to see what they had to offer, sample their food and feed the baby cows.

Holden was a little over two and had such a blast.  He loved seeing all the animals, feeding the baby cows and petting the baby bunnies.  The food there was wonderful and since I was getting into the less/non processed movement it seemed like a good fit for our family.  They have their own ice cream too (I'm a chocolate person all the way however they have a blueberry cheesecake ice cream that is my favorite!) The little kids cones were super cute and perfect for us to see how Holden did with ice cream in general.

He did really well even though he looks a bit grumpy in this picture.  I used two Mister Hueys - Pony and Dewey, basic grey for the background/foundation and all the stickers and little bits of paper are from the AC Dear Lizzy line.
