the last set of teacher cards

Hello!  Hope that your having a great first weekend of July!  And for my American friends Happy 4th of July Tomorrow!  We have had a great weekend over here.  With Thursday having been Canada Day Chad took Friday off also and were having a 4 day weekend!  It's been so hot so we have been outside and swimming!  Yesterday we went to a friend's parents pool and had a pool day!  Today I bought the kids a new kiddie pool and the kids had more water fun!  It's supposed to be a really hot summer over here this year but I don't trust it so I feel that if it's nice I better be outside enjoying it just in case!

Today I have the last of my card sets I made for Ariel's preschool teachers.  This one is for the youngest of the teachers and who I think was Ariel's favorite one, shhhh!



I embossed with black the flowers by Hero Arts on some pp by Bella Blvd from the line Estate sale.  I also stamped with different Hero Arts sentiments.  I like how it turned out, after my last teacher's card set I went with something quick and simple.  Oh and two days after school ended I found one of the cards on my craft table, I gave her 7 cards and 8 envelopes!  Opps, so like me to do!

I know I am always sharing photos lately but this one is funny.  I bought Timbits donuts (donut wholes) the other day.  After Carter's nap while I was doing something I heard him start to make his noise that he makes when he is eating something he likes, it's a numm nummy kind of noise.  So I went to check on him and this is what I found:

He took a bite from each of the remaining donuts! (Never mind the fact that he climbed onto the island and into his highchair himself!)  I actually ate one of his leftovers before I took the photo so he did this to 6 donuts!  So funny I had to take a picture and share!
