This time it’s Grandma Maydene’s turn. Even with my lack of craft-room lighting, I got this card done (more on the lighting issues at a later date). Happy Birthday Grandma Baxter! We love you! Read more →
Our Other Cat
Do you ever get the feeling someone is watching you…like right behind you? That was the scene in our office tonight, as Jason blogged and I made wedding cards under the careful supervision of our cat, and our other cat. Note: ‘other’ cat is the one wearing glasses.

Dear Mrs. B (formerly Ms. K)
Jason has formerly stated that he thinks some of his coworkers like me more than they like him given the occassional pan of brownies I send them at work. The following is a note from his coworker Jonathan. Perhaps not surprisingly, Jonathan was also the one who coined the term “wife-elect” while we were engaged. Funny kid. Read more →
