Jessica Spragues - ShaZAM

Today on Sprague Lab Jessica gives a tutorial on Photo ShaZAM. And if you do a Photo ShaZAM and post the pics you can enter to win this way cute camera strap!

Isn't it too cute!?! Natalie Putman makes these you can check them out in her etsy shop here (Stephanie you deffinatly need to check these out!!)

SO of course I tried Jessica's tutorial! and here is what I got:

first one is the SOC (straight ot of the camera- for those that don't know what it means) and 2nd is with ShaZAM - the ShaZAM is alot more colorful but it also shows her veins in her face more too so then I tried a Skin Softner from Graffi

this girl is so darn cute I miss her sooo much!!

The Post Office finds

Working at the Post Office does have some good points. Like you know when the postal rates are going up... you know who in town is having problems paying their bills... you get to know where every street in town is and you learn where half the town lives. But my favorite is when we are cleaning out the UBBM (the post office has acronyms for absolutely everything). UBBM is also know as the trash mail, junk mail, recycling etc. When people move and they still receive those catalogs from random places that they once purchased something from, all those catalogs go in the recycling. So when emptying out the recycling bins I get to see a lot of companies that I had no idea even existed. ( We are not supposed to look inside the catalogs but from the covers you can get a feel of what type of catalog it is) My newest find is Grandin Road.com

I found a million things I want there. Everything is a little over my Target budget but it is still fun to look at. Here are some of my finds/wants:

I thought these were cute butterflies and they are solar I LOVE this patio set it is kinda old farmhouse looking to me I thought oh I could at least get 2 chairs - NOPE not at the SALE price of 149 each - I really like the "couch" though it is only 499 LOL

These solar globes would be cute to kinda give some light ( at night it is pitch black here just like you are camping

Did you ever think of putting actual pictures on the walls of the back patio? here are 2 that I saw that would work for Mom's back patio with the whole beachy theme - not that I am encouraging her to buy more stuff!

I need a new door mat for the front door - I like both of these - the pink one comes in "eleventy billion" different colors

So those are my finds it has cute stuff so if you want to fill some time check it out.

guess what my boy just did.....

No it was not something bad! I was in my scrap room and I came in the house and he was doing the dishes! He loaded the dishwasher and even started it! He was so proud of himself it was cute!

I finally uploaded my pics from our week in Sac to my puter so hopefully today or tomorrow I will have time to post a few - it was a busy 5 days with shopping and Abby's birthday and the 4th.

I got my car registered today - the price was actually not bad way cheaper than what registration would have been on the truck in a few months. California is so dumb sometimes If you buy a car in another state you have to have it smogged here to show that it passed. Like brand new cars are not going to pass! plus they have already done it in another state to California standards it is so dumb - so you are forewarned if you buy a car in Reno if you are not financing the registration you will have to have it smogged in Cali before you can register it.
I got a bag thingy to organize my car at wally's today. It attaches to the back of the front seats and it has little compartments so you can store stuff in it. So I picked up some wipes and some interior wipes for the dusty dash and I put some tissues in there too - I am thinking maybe I better stick some barf bags in there too cause if you are not prepared it will happen LOL hopefully this will keep the car a little more organized


dallen just came in and told me the Sheriff is at the neighbors - i should go peak and see what is going on.... later gators
