fun with mom

mom came up on tuesday to stay a couple of days with us while chris was in delaware and les was working on repairs to his house in grapevine. we got the invitations to danielle's shower done and decided on everything for the shower. i can't wait~it's going to be so cute!
unfortunately, i did not get one picture of anything related to the shower. i know, shame on me.

after my stamp class on wednesday, we went to pei wei for lunch. this is what i get every time i go there--the spicy korean. yum!
mom got lemon pepper chicken, i think. i didn't have a bite, but it looked good too.

julie, natalie and mindy are also in the class. we usually go to lunch afterwards. stamping makes you hungry, you know?
me and mom
here are the cute projects we did. this was a neat technique using a brayer and an embossing folder. very easy. well, i say that...but i managed to mess it up. this was my second attempt!
this was adorable. it's the size of a card...
but it opens up
and is a cute accordian-style mini album. wouldn't this be cute filled with fall pictures?
here we are with our masterpieces =)
then it was time for mckinlee's gymnastics. that's her on the trampoline doing a back handspring by herself!
then it was on to dinner at macaroni grill. mom and i split the chicken marsala. delish! look at those big pieces of artichoke...makes my mouth water even now! i wish i had gotten a picture of our fabulous desserts--but i forgot.
isn't this the cutest picture of mom and les?
mckinlee hated this one. probably because her teeth show. she's all about closed-mouth pictures. i told her i would crop her out (and i will...right after this posts!)
she was playing around with the camera and took this shot of her sprite. pretty cool!
another cute one of mom and les.
we had fun~it just went by too fast!
have a fun weekend ;)
