Father's Day Card for my husband. I used <a href="http://mojomonday.blogspot.com/2017/06/mojo-monday-500-contest-and-farewell.html">Mojo Monday #500</a> card challenge. When I need inspiration for a card I always go to <a href="http://mojomonday.blogspot.com/">Mojo Monday</a> first. Sadly this is their last sketch! I will miss them. Also used the Sweet & Sassy Stampers Challenge #snsschallenge #june2017<br />

I used a few different companies. The paper is an older paper pack from CTMH and the stamp & die cut is from <a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/?gclid=CjwKEAjw9_jJBRCXycSarr3csWcSJABthk07ZJsmrEb1F6PPrxkCN4MLrIlor7q3d9V1Us-ezqv0tBoCPlTw_wcB">Simon Says Stamps</a>. My husband is an avid hunter/fisher. I bought this stamp set for a reason. It is actually a christmas set...but you really can't read the words on it so I went with it! </div>

My birthday is Christmas Day! As a child living at home with my parents and brother and sister we woikd celebrate Christmas in the morning. Then arounf 1 or 2 pm Christmas would stop and my birthday celebration would start. Now that I have kids I realize how difficult that probably was on my mom and dad and siblings. Now my husband always tries to give me my own day and we usually celebrate a day or early. This year we celebrated a week in advance with friends. It was a great day. Friends, pizza, cake & presents....it doesn't get any better. <br />

Hello all! I have finally worked on another card. This is <a href="http://www.mojomonday.blogspot.com/2016/02/mojo-monday-435.html">MojoMonday435</a>. This is a birthday card for my niece. Got to play with my new Pattern paper from Stampin up. It is Bohemian paper pack. I used the Stamp set HappyBDay2You from The Stamps of Life for the cupcake and the sentiment was from Be Happy Sentiments from Amy R. Stamps. </div>

Happy Birthday card for the <a href="http://www.mojomonday.blogspot.com/2016/01/mojo-monday-432.html">MojoMonday#432 card sketch</a>. I am a little behind this week as not feeling well, but thought I better get this card posted. I got some new Pattern paper from Stampin up called Wildflower Fields. So I had to open it up! The stamps I used are by The Stamps of Life, Thanks2You and Happy2becircles. <br />

<br />
We got some snow last night. But I don't think it is anywhere near what we are suppose to get. The hubster was out for several hours plowing the driveway and shoveling so that we could get down the driveway. Of course it would help if the Gravel road we live on gets plowed. That could be a few days before the state or the farmer up the road who the state has contracted with to plow gets to it. For now the kids have no school. the hubster has no work and we are all staying in the house.<br />

We shall see what tonight and tomorrow night bring, because it is now snowing again. <br />
<br />
But with that being said at least I got to get some paper crafting done again today. I organized my cards to see what need to make more of and I made a card for <a href="http://vlvsketches.blogspot.com/">Viva La Verve sketch</a>.<br />

I made this with Craft and Cream cardstock. The stamp sets are from <a href="http://www.stampinup.com/">Stampin Up</a>. I used Summer Sillhouettes and label Love. This card is going in the mail with a gift I knit. Hopefully, I will get to the post office at the beginning of the week. We shall see what the snow allows. </div>

Wow, again I can't believe I have not been blogging. Life has just been busy and I have not been paper crafting lately! We have been in our new house now for about 14 months and are loving it! We have 20 acres. Loving it! <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My hubby and I just finished setting up and reorganizing my craft room. I now have space to work with my new desk/hutch. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIVClsUrCRPmN74WMYcsxnKXahbZkDpMbWTazvH1Pggh_tZlQWae6WGIOY-CGdkEb1Td7i3E6WnHdCf7qVoK6Qx8Ows2XQF06kRxga6QVw1TmMg61vznqijEbC2q4KEdAqmgq7bWgc7GVg/s1600/20160104_211313.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIVClsUrCRPmN74WMYcsxnKXahbZkDpMbWTazvH1Pggh_tZlQWae6WGIOY-CGdkEb1Td7i3E6WnHdCf7qVoK6Qx8Ows2XQF06kRxga6QVw1TmMg61vznqijEbC2q4KEdAqmgq7bWgc7GVg/s320/20160104_211313.jpg" width="180" /></a></div>
I am also getting my stamp sets organized so the they are easily accessible. I was finding it frustrating not knowing what I had and not being able to find them. FOr the most part they are all now in either DVD cases or CD cases on my new stamps shelf that hubby bought me for Christmas.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVcDbrG_Snr0PtI0N1fLiO4tYFsIT6OE_kc26OE6wMo8mZIYHh2mdAXWnqDJqbF95UtXr-ypHvHOMexmnO5wyE89skL1nl64_x589HluKCdlGmt1fuQaa7VbYL-Kp6rIcnsRgPTFroHEkW/s1600/resized.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVcDbrG_Snr0PtI0N1fLiO4tYFsIT6OE_kc26OE6wMo8mZIYHh2mdAXWnqDJqbF95UtXr-ypHvHOMexmnO5wyE89skL1nl64_x589HluKCdlGmt1fuQaa7VbYL-Kp6rIcnsRgPTFroHEkW/s320/resized.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After all that I am finally getting do do some paper crafting. I am not longer frustrated looking for stuff and wondering where it is and not having enough space. YEAH! I will say that most of it was done while I was on vacation. My hubster got the shelf up and my desk bought and put together! He ROCKS! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Okay now on to my paper crafting for today. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I played along with the <a href="http://mojomonday.blogspot.com/2016/01/mojo-monday-431.html">MojoMonday431</a>. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a couple different stamps sets along with pattern paper and cardstock. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used 2 different stamp sets by <a href="http://www.vervestamps.com/">VERVE</a>. I used Abundant Blessings and Bloom&Grow. I also used <a href="http://www.stampinup.com/home/en-US/">Stampin Up</a> Great Friends Stamp set. The patter paper is from <a href="http://www.closetomyheart.com/">Close To My Heart</a>, Stella. The base is on Crumb Cake cardstock also by <a href="http://www.stampinup.com/">Stampin Up</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you can see I like a lot of different companies products. I don't ever use just one! But that is okay! I love paper crafting supplies and well, buy what I like! </div>

I didn't realize it had been so long since I have blogged. WE have been in our new house for just over a year. Last year we moved here to our land the weekend before Thanksgiving. It has been a crazy year. We have had to buy a vehicle so I could get up our steep driveway. We got moved into our house, we had to buy a tractor & 4wheeler to maintain the driveway. Now my handsome hubby is working on a shed to store them in for the winter. Hopefully the bad weather holds off enough so that we can (he) can get it up! We have been so blessed and are thankful we are together and able to get out here to our land and enjoy the country. </div>

I am sure that I have mentioned in past posts about our land. That we are wanting to move to our 20 acres that we bought a couple years ago. We are in the process of getting the house out there. It is such a slow process! Urg! signed papers end of July. Well they got the well in and now have the concrete footers in...Yeah.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_p6lXm_Vdaka9R5nSBs8ml7ltehEvit70X-P1mswitAL-3rlU_94ZT7NZuam0JtzYzJdAJUX_LXv2UVm_ZyklQsmPApIqsFHf9xttE_R1Fou8VqLObOml3NmwtIkub-PcBc0VaeQC6ah_/s1600/land.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_p6lXm_Vdaka9R5nSBs8ml7ltehEvit70X-P1mswitAL-3rlU_94ZT7NZuam0JtzYzJdAJUX_LXv2UVm_ZyklQsmPApIqsFHf9xttE_R1Fou8VqLObOml3NmwtIkub-PcBc0VaeQC6ah_/s1600/land.jpg" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
I am super excited to be out here! They claim the house is being moved up at the beginning of this coming week. But, oh, wait they told us that last week. And before that a few times! We shall see! But at least the footers are in!<br />
<br />
This will be the view from our front porch or living room or the front of the house.<br />

Just looking over the little pond. It is fun watching the deer walk around there and all the other littel critters. Not thrilled about the bears but we shall see what happens! <br />
<br />
Because we are moving out here we have already enrolled the kids in the Giles County schools. They are loving it. I am not liking to have to drive the kids back and forth every day...the 130 miles per day is getting old real fast! But soon like I said we will be out and all will be well.<br />
<br />
I haven't done much paper crafting. With soon moving, I don't want to get stuff out and all over. I have to start getting stuff packed up and my paper crafting stuff is something I can pack ahead of time. <br />
I have however done some knitting. I finished a pair of socks back in September that I haven't shared yet. My friend has asked me to make her, her husband and her son some knitted socks. So that is what I am working on. Her are hers....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I really like how they turned out! Think they are going to fit her perfectly. Now...I am not sure about the socks for her husband...but we shall see!<br />
<br />
Thanks for stopping by!<br />

Me and my girl! WE had a fun celebration. Dinner at Red Robin where at the end they sang happy birthday to Carli. She was a bit mortified! But...I think secretly she liked it. Well maybe!<br />

Wow, what a crazy couple of days. Yesterday I took the kids to see their new schools. They start school in Giles County this coming Tuesday. I really like their teachers, special ed teachers, IEP coordinators and all. Everyone was super nice. The girls seemed to like everyone and I am super excited that they are going to have a good year! <br />
I worked on some cards the last couple of days. I decided to make a few cards using the Triple Stamping Technique. <br />

I really like this look and really like how they turned out. I used two different Stamp sets, one from Stampin Up and the other from Verve. <br />
<br />
Last night, Shawn found a dog he wanted that someone was giving away for free. Today I contacted the person to see if the one of the dogs was still available and he was. So....we now have a new Dog. Saxon is now the newest member of the Tucker/Kottwitz family.<br />

Hopefully tonight will be a good first night home with him. He will be sleeping in his crate for awhile until we know he isn't chewing anymore and until we know he is completely potty trained! <br />

<br />
Fun, fun week. I am so excited that I had a friend of mine order 60 handmade cards from me. She had ordered 25 or so last year. I hadn't heard from her again this year about cards so wasn't sure she would want more. But last week I heard from her and she ordered 60 this time. She is with the PTA and they give them to teachers and staff for their birthday. I asked her if they liked them last year and she said they loved them. That made me feel pretty good! <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5K6jTTY-xcH8uYlPzwS6QVNrd4n9ajtdrJgz1YZkD8FxoqsMrf4NILxv-AVHXPEVgj1HZsu_YCqT42PeQGBhal1RKAH7FQaR2NoZNfth3swjPQnNJjwubTx693f8HkkgiFshbo0zOD1US/s1600/happybirthday.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5K6jTTY-xcH8uYlPzwS6QVNrd4n9ajtdrJgz1YZkD8FxoqsMrf4NILxv-AVHXPEVgj1HZsu_YCqT42PeQGBhal1RKAH7FQaR2NoZNfth3swjPQnNJjwubTx693f8HkkgiFshbo0zOD1US/s1600/happybirthday.jpg" height="291" width="400" /></a></div>
This is one of the cards I made. Pulled out stamp set Embrace Life from CTMH. I just did random stamping with the different butterflies, in purple, green and Brown! I am glad I am staring to do some more paper crafting. I got out of doing it for a while and really enjoyed working on them. Madison, my little one enjoyed working with me too. Here she is putting cards with envelopes. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSaLPsKLGUtd5qZRSlhjLV4gR1LPowqa0i5OR5XmWkKj-ZFSM6f-49ryAv9Kr6yxvHio8CqJxtiwESEUvfgpp5PVhWpvNbqnunuWPiOWEyBXOvZMX5dKwByCE-3YuTkPV_IHvOO8Fzc801/s1600/edited.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSaLPsKLGUtd5qZRSlhjLV4gR1LPowqa0i5OR5XmWkKj-ZFSM6f-49ryAv9Kr6yxvHio8CqJxtiwESEUvfgpp5PVhWpvNbqnunuWPiOWEyBXOvZMX5dKwByCE-3YuTkPV_IHvOO8Fzc801/s1600/edited.jpg" height="239" width="320" /></a></div>
She was very focused on making sure each card had the right color envelope (either cream or white). She was a super big help. It is fun having her help me and show interested in a few things I like to do! <br />
<br />
Lastly just a picture to share some veggies my hubby grew in his garden. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

He grew the zuchini and the squash. Our neighbor out in Giles county gave us the tomatoes. We had a few zucchini and squash that were actually bigger that we ate last week! Pretty awesome for our first time in the garden. Can't wait until we are living out at our land by the end of October. I so want to try canning next! <br />
<br />
Well thanks so much for stopping by and hope you are all having a great week!<br />

This week has been pretty relaxing. I have been spending time with the kids since they did not have to start school this week. Of course they would rather play on their electronics but...when mama says to do...they have to do. You know...that QT time they never want to have! <br />
<br />
We have also been hatching some guinea-keets and chickens. Yes...in our house. Right now they are so small they have to be kept under some light to keep them warm. Sadie, our dog loves them. Well what I think she wants to do eat them...but we won't let her. But let me tell you...they tweet all day...and all day all she wants to do is bark at them. She gets so excited...running around the house, barking. She literally shakes she is so excited! <br />

Yes....this is Sadie right before she tried to chomp down on this cute little chick. Thankfully my hubby knew what she wanted and kept he chick far enough away from Sadie. She could see the chick but couldn't reach her!<br />
<br />
I also have been knitting and card making this week. A friend of mine who is on the PTA at school ordered 50 or so birthday cards from me. The PTA gives cards to each teacher on their birthday. Last year she got some cards from me as well, but never really said if they liked them or what. Well, they must have because this week she asked for them again and this time wanted double what they ordered before! Yeah! I am just glad they like them. So below you can see my work space this week. I am not a neat crafter that is for sure. Though I never, ever claimed to be!<br />

In the next few weeks I will have some pictures to share of the cards I have created! <br />
<br />
I didn't get much done one them today. Today, I went to a craft group up at my friend Kristin's in Roanoke and hung out with some craft friends. All of them were paper crafting however...I was not. I am not the best pre-planner when it comes to that kind of stuff so instead I went for a few hours and took my knitting! I took the kids with me and we went over for a while. I got my friends socks started and like I said got to hang out with some great ladies. It really was a great day!<br />
<br />
To top it off...when we got home...hubby was home and took us to dinner. We voted on the Pizza Inn and had a nice family dinner! Super great day!<br />

Wow what a crazy summer! We have traveled, signed papers for our loan for the house, bought and bought a car. Seriously! CRAZY! <br />
<br />
The kids got out of school late this year. They didn't get out until June 21. That day we went straight up to Pennsylvania to see our family. We made and over night stop in Lewisberry (just outside of Harrisburg) to see friends. We always have such a great time visiting the Stambaugh's. The kids love playing with Anna who is close to their age. They get to play and I get to visit with Bridget and Kurt! It really is the most relaxing time! we then headed to Coudersport to see our family. Got to see mom & Dad, my sister, my bother and Shawn's family! We spent 2 weeks up in Coudy. It was only suppose to be one week, then about 4 days after we got there Shawn surprised us by coming up for a few days! After he left, we stayed another week! Fun family times. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">After getting back the kids and I spend a couple weeks relaxing, going to the pool with our friends, and going to $1 movies once a week. Then on July 30th my hubby and I did something we weren't sure we would ever be doing again. We signed papers for our construction loan to get our 4 bedroom manufactured home out at our land! We were told it would take 60 days after signing to be out there...so we shall see. With the move to our new house/land the kids will be switching schools. They will now be going to Giles County. they are super excited that they now don't start school until the Monday after Labor Day. If they were still going to be going to Montgomery they would have started tomorrow! Yep...they are super super happy! Too funny! </span></div>
<br />
The kids and I then headed back to Couderport for another visit! Again stopping in Harrisburg on the way up and back! Again it was another fun visit with Mimon and Poppy (my mom and dad) and everyone else! <br />
<br />
Then this past weekend we broke down and bought my new Vehicle. Had to get it. Our new house is on the side of a hill and there is no way I will be getting up the driveway without the AWD, at least until we get the driveway re-directed. So here is my new Ride! My new Kia Sportage and I LOVE IT! I didn't want a red one to begin with! I now right..! But...that is what they came out with when I told them what I was looking for. Now, understand I test drove EVERYTHING! Every SUV I could find. My hubby said he wanted me to be happy. The Kia Sportage was my #2. My first choice was a bit out of our price range! However...I DO love this Sportage! <br />

Yesterday the kids and I had a fun filled day in Roanoke. We went to Trapper and Kaylee's birthday party that was at he Mill Mountain Zoo. I didn't even know that there was a zoo in Roanoke. We drove over and spent a few hours walking around the zoo and of course pizza, cake and presents!<br />

We had a wonderful Easter.<br />
<br />
The girls and I spent the morning at Harbor of Hope Church. They are part of a Youth Group there and each took part in the drama. Below is Carli's part. She was one set of the white hands. I had never seen anything like this before. It was pretty amazing!<br />

After church we headed out to the land and enjoyed a cookout as well as the nice weather and the peacefulness of being out their. We own 20 acres so when we are out there, we don't hear traffic or neighbors or really anything. Only nature. <br />
