I don’t know about you, but I might have a little extra today, just to be safe...🦖🦕☕️ #coffeelover #coffeetime #dinosaursofinstagram
On the website today, learn how to make a piece of jewelry using the handwriting of someone special and your @officialcricut machine! #cricutmade #cricutmaker #cricutcrafts #handwriting #boymom #mama #diyjewelry
Don’t wait for the “perfect opportunity.” Today is the day. Now is the moment. Show kindness. Love unconditionally. Treat everyone as an equal. The time is right now.
I’m out of toilet paper so I wiped with my clothes so I’m going on the floor to the internet. Your turn! 🤣🤣🤣
I turned a sweet handwritten note from my son into a coffee mug with @officialcricut ! Stop by amylattacreations.com to see how you can do the same with any written note you treasure! #cricutmade #cricutcrafts #cricut #nationalhandwritingday #handwriting #boymom #momofboys
I mean, when you don’t go anywhere, what’s the point, right? Except then the dog gets out and takes a joy run all over the neighborhood and you get to chase him in your slippers and all your messy haired, no makeup glory. Good times. Said no one ever.
At least I usually get to do it twice a day every day...? Why do boys make so many dirty dishes?!
Looking for some at-home fun? Grab your spouse, kiddo, or BFF and take my ceramic mug online class! Here’s how: Go to diyprostudios.com and find a participating store near you. Then, go there and pick up a kit with literally all the supplies you need for a pair of mugs, including hand-lettered sticker stencils created by me! Take them home, watch the online class at your leisure, & paint your mugs. When you’re done, just them back to the store, where they will kiln-fire them for you. It’s that easy! ❤️ Head to diyprostudios.com for more! @diyprostudios #pottery #paintyourownpottery #letitsnow #mugs #diyproject #athomeproject #couplesproject #valentineideas
So this is only partly true...I was in the car in the parking lot, but didn’t go in. My son spent his Christmas money on a Lego set and did online order with in store pickup...I waited in the car while hubby went in and got it. Still counts, though, right? I mean, I didn’t get to browse and *I* didn’t get anything...
Dear 2021, My expectations are exceedingly low. I’m not asking for much, just please don’t be a dumpster fire train wreck. I won’t cause any trouble and I hope you’ll return the favor. Thank you.
Then, we are all going to sit really still and quiet and show 2021 we don’t want any trouble...
Those post-Christmas, pre-New Years feels. It’s all just so hazy...I could work but I don’t want to, I’m wondering when someone is going to clean up this giant mess, and I can’t seem to stop eating cheese and cookies. 🤷♀️ Who’s in the same boat?
From our happy chaos to yours, Merry Christmas! 🎄
If you’ve ever taken a class with me or learned lettering from my books/website, the first word I had you write was probably “Joy.” Joy is not the same as happiness, because it’s not a reaction to our circumstances or a fleeting feeling. Instead, it’s a deeply rooted attitude of the heart, able to exist even in the toughest of times (hello, 2020). For me, the source of joy in my life is tied to what we celebrate today; the birth of Christ. We call Him Emmanuel, literally, “God with us.” He came to earth because it was the only way to save us. The birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus is the greatest love story ever told...and it starts here, today, with the baby in the manger. I hope that as you celebrate today, you experience the joy that goes beyond circumstance, because the Lord has come. Let earth receive her King. Merry Christmas! ❤️🎄❤️
Merry Christmas Eve, friends! Wishing you a blessed holiday full of love and cheer as we celebrate the birth of our Savior. ❤️
I’ve got two in CA, one in Ohio, two in MD, and one “unknown.” I guess it was silly to expect anything less in 2020... #mail #delivery #packages #2020
And not a minute before, so don’t push your luck, kids. #zzz #notamorningperson
