Creative Blog

I just put a few posts on my creative blog.... CREATIVE JUICES down below. Forgive me, I haven't quite figured out how to do links on here yet.
Stay tuned for a couple more projects that I am sooooo excited about! I am redoing the boy's room and I can't wait to share!

New Hairdos

Don't be scared! We've done mohawks in the bath, even done them for sometimes for fun on crazy days, but not like this! Matt took the kids last night after work to all go get their haircuts and the boys (just the little ones, not Matt) came home like this. Woah. Not quite sure how long they will have these hairdos...they've been getting some strange looks from almost everyone. I think we'll save it for Gma and Gpa Hammons to see!



At least they are still very cute!! Maybe I need to do a full photo session with their little guitars, what do you think?

Sleep Over on St. Patty's Day

This was our TREASURE that the Leprechaun left us...fancy treasure box, huh?
We had our cousin Koda stay over at our house on Monday! It was so fun to have a sleep over (after they FINALLY went to sleep). Koda and Treyson both slept on the top of our NEW bunk bed (pictures to come soon). Cru was having a hard time with it since he just had his binky "broken". He actually finally fell asleep before the big boys did. The Leprechaun stopped by our house this morning and left our milk green and we found some of his gold he left behind as well. It was so fun to have a sleep over, thanks for staying Koda!

Jacob Hamblin Home Visit

In front of the home.
Mommy and Macey

A cool thing to take a picture by.


Taking a break from the walk for a photo-opt



We had our Stake Conference last week and since all the kids were still recovering from sickies we thought it would be fun to go check out the Jacob Hamblin Home. This is a church historical site here and just minutes from our house. Since we drive past it everyday we thought we should go see what it's all about. Jacob was an early settler in Santa Clara, Utah. He was a great friend and peacemaker to the Indians and a wonderful missionary. It was interesting to find out more about him and his life and how he fits into our community. He had several wives and had a total of 24 kids, woah. He helped to build a fort in Santa Clara, which is not here anymore, but there is monument that represents that. We walked from his home to the monument to get the whole experience... I was surprised the kids walked the whole mile!

Mask Time



Don't be scared...
Matt and I decide to search the internet for a homemade mask for a much needed facial. Matt's skin tends to be a bit more oily than mine so we settled on a combination mask. This one asks for 1 banana and 1/3 to 1/2 C oatmeal. Blend and Picasso time! It was quite a weird feeling, but something fun to do together!
