my second layout of the year was created using the *three little birds* kit that we have in the etsy shoppie shop for the pink ninja addicts,,, loved playing with this kit!!! i got an email from this pretty ninja a few days ago {she was stoked to have her kit ~ loved the kit and couldnt wait to break into it},,, i was sooooooooo jealous ~ beause we have been so darn busy busting our tiny tails trying to get everything in order, that i hadnt had a chance to play yet,,, ahhhhhh,,, finally. here is my first of many layouts using the rad kits from the pink ninja addicts {if i do say so myself,,,,,} :-) here is my layout *dream*,,,, lovessssss,,,

love, ally

ahhhhh,, december. glad youre here, because it means as you grow closer and closer to the end of the year, i may slowly un-tie these strings i have wrapped ever so tightly on my lips,,, im good with secrets, your secrets, but mine?? not so much,,, anyway, enough of that {before i go tooooo far},,, check these out. i thought i give it a shot to see if miss elsie wanted to create a little twinsie action for mama & girl baby,,, and she loved the idea,,, and since sofia and i both looooove pink, and have so much music in our souls,,, well, i emailed the details off and these are the paintings e created for me and sofia. cute ~ right?? cant wait to have em!!!
love, ally

because its been so wicked hot out as of late, more than ever, im soooo ready to say peace out the this awful season known as summer,,, at one point in my life known as my favorite season, but not anymore,,, things like elsies aceos for the up and coming fall season give me hope that its not too far off,,, really, summer will be here again,,, as soon as i blink,,, but for now,,, sweet dreams of halloween and fall time keep me a tad bit cooler in the evenings,,, love these girls,,, and since my dude started school this past thursday, gotta love the back to school beauties,,,

love you, love ally*son
