I designed this entry door for our downstairs entrance into the foyer. My grandparents had a custom door builder in Sierra Vista build it for us and they will finish the framing of it and add sidelights. It still needs stain, hardware, windows & trim, and the...

When we drove over Mingus Mountain to get to Prescott, we found a little patch of snow near the road that leads to camping, so we had to stop for a bit of fun 🙂

We decided to let the kids choose which experience they wanted to do for Christmas this year, to create fun memories with the family and cut down on materialism. We had so much fun together.

My mom loves to set up gingerbread houses for the kids for Christmas. She had a whole cooler full of candy, cereal, marshmallows and pretzels, new and old, to use for decorations. She even offered to break out the cake decorating stuff too but it was already...

I am working on this tray for my parents for Christmas – their last name is Fox 🙂 I used Photoshop to create the design, printed it and taped it down to wax-free transfer paper, used a mechanical pencil to trace over the design and then used the wood burning...

We took the bow & arrows to my grandparents to give us something fun to do while waiting for Thanksgiving dinner to cook. We all took turns trying to hit a stump.

For my youngest son’s birthday, we went to Meteor Crater in Winslow, AZ. The visitor’s center has cool interactive exhibits and a 4D movie to learn about meteors (moving seats, air blasts, flashing lights) which my 8 and 11 year old loved. And then going...

You can purchase pendant trays on Amazon to create necklace pendants from your artwork! My son creates beautiful alcohol ink artwork so I grabbed a set for him and he is so excited to start selling them, and to give them away for Christmas presents.

One day, I got brave enough to take four children, ages 7 to 16, to an art gallery. Exposures had a beautiful collection – a ton of variety of styles and mediums. The outside has some fun animal and wind sculptures that little kids would appreciate if...

We decided to head up to Flagstaff to play at the Fort Tuthill Bike Park and go swimming in Oak Creek. It was a fun, tiring day.

If you’re going to play on the trampoline, might as well be a cat while you’re doing it.

When we had a free night and day to go visit my parents, we asked if we could campout in the backyard, just for fun. The teenager slept on the couch inside, the middle two shared a tent, and I shared with the youngest. It was a fun, silly little adventure. The rooster...

The kids always love water slides. They got a chance to go on the water slides after swimming lessons one day at the Sedona Community Pool.

Kevin decided that we should build a stand for the brand new washer and dryer we got this summer. He designed it using pipes, 2×6 planks, and a polycarbonate sheet. It came out beautiful and, though it was a pain to install, it’s worked great and looks...

When I went walking down to old town St Helens, OR from our hotel, I noticed that many of the houses were decorated pretty heavily for Halloween. The downtown area had at least two haunted houses in the tall, old city buildings, The town square and a little riverside...

When Kevin & I saw Venus Fly Traps at Bashas the other day, Kevin immediately thought of Colt. We had to bring it home for him. We instructed him not to play with the leaves since they die if they are triggered without grabbing an insect.

I created an alcohol ink design on yupo paper (made out of plastic so it’s not porous) and then cut out the flower pattern using my Silhouette Cameo.

The kids had a great time at the school Halloween party. Ty painted Colt’s face….but I’m pretty sure the kid asked for a kitty face even though he was being a werewolf, lol. You never know what you’ll get with that kid.
