Creativity Explodes

So I wanted to create something hand made for my son's 2nd Birthday... and some may say I went overboard and yes, I do know that he is far to young to appreciate all the amazing things I am planning for his birthday. But my hopes are that SOMEONE will appreciate them, and hopefully one day monster will too.


The creative process was rather time consuming, but well worth it.

In the end they turned out AMAZING.


There is much much more to come from this amazing birthday party i'm planning for my special little monster. I never had a theme to my parties growing up or the goodie bags. So i'm trying my hardest to give my son the best life I can. I hope one day he can really appreciate all I am doing for him.

It is what it is...

Every once in a while, I wonder if school was the right choice for me. Then I take a close look at the things I have accomplished; maintaining a 3.5 GPA, raising a child, completing some amazingly difficult but fun projects, learning all this new stuff. And today I took a close look at the classes I still need to graduate college, inside my brain I am screaming, but I only need 6 classes after winter and spring quarter to graduate. Theoretically that is only summer and fall classes and I will be done with my first of three degrees (Graphic Design being the utmost important :D). I am so shocked at all the things I have accomplished and still being able to raise my little monster. Now i'm working, going to school and raising my monster. I can truly say that I am proud of myself.

My life is truly amazing and there isn't much more I could ask for. Besides for my best friend to be back home where she belongs so she can bask in the glory with me. (LBNR).

Life has given me some tough times this past year but it just goes to show that I can work through ANYTHING!! I am a strong woman with an amazing family and I appreciate them and all they do for me. I have the most amazing best friend EVER and I probably never would have made it this far and still kept my SANITY without her. I LOVE YOU ANNA DANIELLE CROUSE!! Thank You!!
