when i saw this new kit by krystal available FREE at http://www.faithsisters.com with a $10 purchase (yummy stuff..won't be hard...) i thought of my cute little americana kitchen that i had when hunter was little...the cute curtains (that kevin hated...but i loved...) it was such a cute little kitchen...yes, if you are wondering..this is when my best friend staple gunned the wall paper on b/c kevin said no wallpaper glue..ahhh..good times...it looked CUTE though..and i puddied the holes before i did my last decorating disaster...anyways...back on topic......i LOVE the colors in this kit...because it reminds me of that sweet little toddler strolling around in my kitchen and taking all my cookbooks out of the cabinet...oh..she was so sweet...so I had to use a precious baby picture of her in this layout... I called it WONDER...hope you like...

kane LOVES to make mean faces in pictures...so i must go with it..or i miss out...

the girl LOVES watermelon...i think that she ate the majority of it..and devoured the leftovers!
what would a grouping of pics by me be without one of these....

so i have been a little on the absent side...refocusing i guess you could say...

last month of school was just pretty intense....We lost our dearly beloved pastor and friend, Father Pat...i LOVED that man..had such an amazing bond with him..and miss and think of him EVERYDAY!

I went to the ACTS retreat this past month...oh my gosh...one WORD...auuuuuuuuhmaZiNg! I can't tell you how much it has meant in my life to attend something so wonderful and as a bonus..i got myslef 80 new sisters.......they are JUSt awEsOmE!

Graduated Miss Hunt from Kindergarten....cried....had to send her up the aisle at the beginning of the ceremony and about didn't let go...yep..i was a bawl bag...had to give a little introduction to our song that our k3, k4 and kinder kids sang..and almost cried during that too...had to PULL IT TOGETHER though... miss my k3 kids ALreaDy!!! Made some cute books for them TOO..oh..i HAVE to post those...note to self...

Miss Sadie Marie was born on the 15th..beautiFuL niece of mine..check out www. raizinkane.blogspot.com for more pictures..they are soo sweet...

My sweet neighbor lady has a little pool that she loves to float around in and my kids are always asking..can we go to MiMi's house and swim...and the answer of course is ALWAYS no...like she wants my little dolls in her pool splashing all the water out..anywHo...she BOUGHT my kids a pool of their very own...and the pictures tell the story..they are having the TIME of their lives with that thing...so thanks MIMI for the awesome gift...my kids TOtaLLy LovE it!

i also took some prom pictures for my cousin and his friends..check em' out..they are on the raizinkane site...pretty sweet...(note to self..must add link.)

this is something awesome that i was asked to make for a girlfriend of mine..now imagine this baby blown up into POSTER size in a big frame with a black mat...yuM! it is pretty awesome..i was totally HAPPY with the finished product...lots of pictures on there..the look on mommas face when she picked it up was PRICELESS! yeah...

ok...i have a confession...i am TOTALLY addicted to this crazy digital scrapbooking....BUT i have NO TIME to do it for myself....so that is why i am doing the couNtDoWn to the end of school......i am going to do nothing but digi scrapbook ALL summer long..that's right girls...i am going to slap some sunscreen on the kids and lock them outside in the backyard all day long...throwing them an occasional hot dog or "gorrilla cheese" (as kane calls them...) and a glass of water that they can split..kidding...no..i won't lock them out..but there will be rules...mommy can't be bothered while on computer rule....you know that one girls...right!

ok..but seriously...calm down and cease calling cps on me..but i am going to do some serious scrappin..and i am SOOO pumped up about it..seein that I have about 10 tons of stuff left from the store..i can either burn it :) or do something with it...so I am thinking HYBRID projects a plenty!

speaking of HYBRID..HELLO..you should have SEEN the calendars that i made for my preschool mommas today for marvelous moms at school....so SWEET...but OH THE DRAMA leading up to getting them printed...ok..so are y'all ready for an ashli wolf story...well, here goes. (what would my blog BE without one?!)

so...............i got these hot little calendar covers in a download that i totally LOVE...can't remember where..but i will think on it :) so anywho.....I took some SUPER precious fat face pictures of my preschoolers oh my GOSH..they were So cute...and i spent tons of time making these (ok..that was a stretch because it as a template :) so i made these CUTE calendar covers and was like HOLY cow this is going to take 4ev to attach and send to MY GIRL KATIE at Staples..(love how we are GIRLZ...i see her more than i see my kids some week) so i was like, well, what about a 4shared account...so i did it..downloaded them all (took a while) and sent them to STAPLES at 12:49am on Tuesday morning...ONLY to find out that staples couldn't open the webpage...UGH....so i had to copy them all off of the 4shared account...onto my computer at school (SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH) and then send them BACK as an attachment..took forev... anyways..she got em....printed one..it was the wrong size..no prob..we will print them a different size..so while they are printing i will jet off to get a frame for something ELSE that i made... and to pick up the pocket calendars...so i run to michaels..super fast...because of COURSE they will have the 16 pocket calendars that i am needing RIGHT?! wrong..they are "seASoNAL items" ugh...it wasn't nice the thoughts that were racing through my head...but i actually just started LAUGHING...hysterically...WHO ELSE would this happen to...my calendar covers are PRINTING and i have NO calendars....WHY ARE THESE SEASONAL ITEMS>..like WHAAT season would that be..because TO MY KNOWLEDGE...summer, spring, winter AND remarkably ENOUGH fall are all represented in the calendar correct me if i am wrong...but those are the seasons.......right...so they aren't seasonal....the woman was a total haggatha...i tend to gravitate to those people to..shedding positiveness and happiness onto someone WHO doesn't want it at all..i share my woes wiht her..laughing all the while...and guess what...she tells me my total and shoos me out the door...class! from there..i went and totally WIPED out target of the only 10 that they had..and then i went to the denton walmart...i found a TReAsUre TrOve of them...EUREKA right....i grabbed up a handful of them and off i went to checkout.......only to hear the nice checker lady say...um..maim, would you really like to buy these...i am like UH YYYYYYYYYYYES!!! i have to have them....and seh is like, well maim (gotta love that...)) these are academic calendars and they are from 2007-2008 and they end on AUGUST 08.............omg..if i would have bought those..i would have been TOTALLY messed up! so i race back, grab up some more with the RIGHT date and am outtie...go back to staples..and they are n't all done...ahh..but it is OK...so me and the staples family kicked it until 9 together...it was fabulous! all was well, got the calendar covers all fixed up..aside from the one for a little girl in my class...hers was printed off mirrored so instead of saying I love you, mom...it said mom, uoy evol I NICE, huh! not sure HOW that happened...corruptness in the file i guess..who kNoWs! so i will post pics later tatersss.xoxo.ash

all aboard...this poor conductor had to wait a little while longer to leave the station..thanks guY!
here we are my great uncles..do i look a little like that side of the family...i am told i do! especially uncle davey..the short one...hmmm...go figure...
this is my great grandma's house...it was just moved from its original spot about a mile away...someone is going to renovate it..we can't wait to see how it turns out..they are a neat bunch of folks...and i know that they will make it look fabulous! oh and a disclaimer (lol krystal) my family DID NOT paint it that color.........no way..it was nice and white when we had it
yeah................I got in.........i need this in my life right now...to help me understand all sorts of goings on.... to no computer for me the weekend of may 16th.... i will be with some awesome chicks and i can't WAIT!
this is a clipboard that i made using krystal's goodiez... i like how it turned out..pretty fuN!

what an awesome weekend it has been....didn't start off too hot...friday..NOT GOOD at all...won't EVEN start into that though..happy thoughts..positive thoughts....happy thoughts.... anywho..i do have to tell you THIS pure ASHLI WOLF original story...so when I closed up the chic shoppe i had SOOOOOOOOOOOO much stuff..i had to get TWO mini warehouses (one i already had) to put it all in.........so i had 186 so thinking it would be easier..i chose 168 so we filled BOTH of those babiez and then went back and cleaned out one and condensed...ok pretty smart right...well, not really because i switched the keys and locks out....so i wasn't able to get into my mini this weekend...i was almost breaking the key off in the lock until i realized WHAT i had done..oMG! hilarious..afterwards...went to lunch with ONE awesome grandmama and my fun fam... and YEAH..guess what else...it was the Webkinz extravaganza or something fun like that......so of COURSE we are the proud new owners of two new webkinz...princess ashlin and ryan the LION cute name...that was ALL kaney...thanks grandmama for a yummy dinner and the new additions

ok........so then we went to the zoo..for a train ride because APPARENTLY the zoo doesn't think that they need to let people in after 4:30..oh MAN..were we sad! we did get to ride the train though...it was a bit pressing because RIGHT before we heard the ALL ABOARD..hunter decided "she had to go the the bathwomb" oh my GOSH..........i was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! ( i should have though..what would kate goslin do....but i didn't i straight freaked OUT) so we exited the train...me, my daughter about to wee wee wee all the way home.and kane SCREAMING at the top of the lungs...YOU MEAN MOMMY...YOU WON"T LET ME WIDE THE TWAIN........ oh didn't I look like mother of the year... after almost going to fisticuffs with the zoo lady who wouldn't let hunt use their bathroom because they were closing GRR...we CHUGGED across the parking lot to the LOVELY and oh so CLEAN park potties...RAN back to get on the train in time to hear the WHISTLE..yes, WE MADE it! The glares from the fellow train riders after dragging my kids off were turned into smiles as they saw us sprinting across the park..not such a bad mommy after all...so HA!

no germanfest for us this year..gotta LOVE that texas weather..it was FREEZING today...but we did get to meet up with my grandpa's brothers...they started Longhorn Barbecue in Spokane Washington...pretty neat old coots! I love those guys...i wish that my grandpa was alive to see them and how they LOVE my kids...it is soo cute! We all ate at the center..yum...i had to make up for not going to the fest...so i had a huge platter of sausage, german potato salad..and kraut!YUM...don't worry..i watched my portions...i only had 1/3 of it........

ok..........so after we got home..magic elves came to our house and whipped it into shape it DID help that kaney fell asleep with ryan the lion and slept through the windstorm of domestic craziness...so the house is clean spic & span...and then that gave me some FUN time to make some goodiez...i got some graduation invitations done WOHOO...and i made a FUN little hybrid project using krystal hartley goodiez available at the potato bar http://www.polkadotpotato.com/ YUM! and oh my gosh..i am working on a super surprise for someone VERY special..more about that after i am done though..it is SUPER cuTe! i love IT!

so...thanks for reading once again........sorry that i TALK non-stop...that's just ME!

Since the last time i have chatted it up with y'all....i have also decided to join our church choir..which ROCKs..it is known as ONE VOICE..i am excited about it ..seriously these people BRING it...8:15 mass is packed now because they are GReAT...i am going to hang back and not bust out any crazy tunes JUST yet...but...you can bet that everyone will hear me belting it out :) and it will make my grandmama so proud...so that is one main reason i will do it :) see..i am a nice lil' girl...

noreply@blogger.com (ashli kay wolf) — Sat, 08 Mar 2008 07:10:00 +0000

Ok.......this is going to SOUND totally crazy......but ALL (yes ALL) of this stuff happened this week.... I am just going to list it...it will be easier....

sunday...ate at babe's yum...fixed up booth in muenster...nothing crazy...

monday...drama...believe me..pure drama

tuesday..kaney was sick...YUCK!

wednesday...taxes (need i EVEN say anything more) ok..yes, I do say more because it was our weigh in for the BIggESt LoSer at school.......lost 1 lb.......grrrrrrrrrrr

thursday...oh great..this is when it starts getting juicy...

Texas Day..woke up EXTRA early to get to STARBUCKS who so very

graciously donated sleeves so we could make our FAbUlOus armadillos

(pic coming soon!!!) and guess WHAT...my car won't start....I think that right now it is also very important to let you know my kids and my attire....(mind you we DID not wach the weather) kane...sweatshirt..tennies...jeans (no coat) Hunter...sweatshirt...pants...coat (thank GOD) tennies....ME (lovely) short sleeve texas tee...khaki pants....OPEN TOED leopard shoes...denim jacket......my steering wheel WON"T budge..so I call my daddy..long story short..he and the neighbor man can't get it to work...so I am going to call the Ford House after Texas Day....don't get to go to Starbucks to get sleeves for armadillos because my daddy has to take me and my kids to work and babysitters........grrrrrrrrrr

Thursday (mid morning) sleeves arrive for the armadillos....a ROOM MOTHER saves the day! We are in the midst of Texas Day in the gym racing our CUTE horses and I hear rain...but it is sounding more like SHARP pieces of ice..rather than rain...I am thinking to myself..what on EARTH is that......

Thursday (noon) the blizzard begins......(ok..so that is a little over the top...it didn't actually start getting TOO terrible just yet) I am like..what is that SNOW?! I am THEN informed that we are supposed to get 4inches of the white stuff...we LAUGH because it was 60 degrees the day before

Thursday (noon-thirty) BLIZZARD BEGINS....naptime for 3 year olds....fun everyday..this day ESPECIALLY FUN!!! they finally go to sleep after doing snow dances (cute) mind you there are 16 three and four year olds..you can ONLY imagine :)

Thursday (noon forty-five) reading enrichment classes begin and I start making my rounds..only to see that the snow is REaLLy sticking...interesting..how can this be...the kids begin to get WILDER...because it is really snowing and blowing out there...

Thursday (noon fifty-five) I get a call from my teacher friend across town saying that they are dismissing early...at 1:30...run DON'T walk to office and inform them...they are already on it

Thurday (one"ish) announced that school will be closing in thirty minutes...have to go back into classroom and WAKE UP sleeping three and four year olds......LOVELY! start calling parents to come and pick up kids (by the way..it is now getting VERY bad outside)

Thursday (one fifteen "ish") I realize that I don't have a car at school...panic mode begins...call babysitter to bring son/and pick up her grandson ( a little trade off) in the mean time we are dismissing kids....in the SNOW...and it is TOTALLY FREEZING *remember the open toed shoes...bRRRRRRRR) ...the kids are TOTALLY wild and I am in PANIC mode..thinking that I may have to walk home :( call mom...she has no ride..she is waiting on my daddy to come and get her...think I will wait for her at my school...BAD IDEA!

Thurdsday (one forty-five ish) finally realize that I am stuck if I don't leave THEN..finally had KANE run after a friends mom and beg a ride (she just lives down the street...thank goodness)

leave school....takes 45 minutes to get home...it usually takes us 3 FLAT!

Friday...car STILL won't work......grrr...school starts late at 9am....tv stops working

mechanic comes to my house.can't fix it by beating on it with a rubber mallet....has to be towed....have extended warranty..dancing a gig...until i realize that it is 3/7/08 and it went ON 3/3/08...dreams shattered......tears commence

have to go and get kevin...pile kidsin truck...go get TUNA sandwiches at the HIPPO *YUM* get home and decide to go to blockbuster...have gift card...send kevin with STRICT instructions to NOT get something TERRIBLY ridiculous...like Patton and expect me to watch it...kevin comes home..gift card not working.....two DUMB dvds later (and oh YES he did rent patton) he finally unveils another bag with American Gangster in it....good movie..but YIKES!

so here i sit pondering about my week..and all the OTHER things that happened that I didn't even list......and I still smile....pretty unBeLieVaBLe huh!?

gotta go...painting a cross...super cute!!!

oh my gosh....what have y'all been up to!? well, we have been cleaning cleaning cleaning around here....it is looking pretty nice....laundry is taken care of..imagine that...

not much has happened since I last visited with y'all....let's see...it has been a LONG time, but the time is just flying by...back to teaching full time and actually taking care of my housework...so that is a nice change :)

my new quest is WEIghT waTcHeRz.....I am only supposed to have 20 points...and pretty much for the first two weeks..we were in MAJOR starvation mode....but now, I am thinking that I might have it all figured out :) the hardest thing was NO dr. Peppers.......ahhh man....I also had to cut out starbucks...( sob sob sob)..so basically, I eat cottage cheese/peaches for lunch....then eat some kind of fruit...no snacks..and a nice dinner.......or maybe one of those smart ones...I have been limiting myself to just under 20 points...but on Valentine's Day..I TOTALLY blew it...hello cupcakes and cookies....I will have to say that I used up my flex points with a vengance! NOT GOOD! but...anyways...I think that it will work..I have done it before..and lost weight..so hopefully I can do it this time TOO! I am doing it with my team teacher, Sherry...she is a ROCK an keeps me on task :) love HER!

Valentine's Day was lovely....the kids were SO cute...I made their valentine's cards...they turned out pretty sweet....that was them at the top... :) I had fun making them as you can see :)

kevin got me a starbucks gift card...HELLO....don't you WANT me to lose weight?! I was like GREAT..I will have hot water :)..how many points is that?! It was too sweet of him though...the last thing for Valentine's day he got me was rose bushes about 8 years ago...so we are back in the saddle this year..haha

let's see...oh we had Dynamite Dad's Day at school a couple of weeks ago...it was Precious..the daddies LOVED it...I added some pics of it :) My kids gave their daddies bbq sauce...check out the CUTE labels..that was FUN! I added a CUTE picture of hunny and daddy...so sweet!

so basically that's it..>i will HOPEFULLY be adding some pictures of some new projeCts that I have underway..........BIG PLANS for my new CRAfT RoOm too....just say a Special Prayer that i get my way........ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

oh my gosh....I am TOTALLY lovING not having the store.......ahhhh...it is SOO nice..I miss everyone...buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut.....oh my gosh...those saturdays at home..ROCK! TOTALLY..I mean...I am LOVING a&e's morning lineup...2 hours of sell this house 2 hours of flip this house LOVE it! I spread out ALL of my done laundry and fold it on the den floor and sort and fold the laundry for the WHOLE morning... oh my GOSH...this is LOVE!

so girlz...thanks for checking in........I am still getting invitation orders so YEAH! keep em' coming!

gotta buzz........I am off to make me a DELECTABLE smart one........ cross your fingers that I make it..my target is to lose 20 pounds......oh my gosh...I hope that I can do it...kevin has promised NEW clothes........ahhhhhhhhh..how cool is tHat?!

oh good grief..i won't EVEN get into the week that i have had...just please know that my mind was 10million miles away from digi scrappin'....so much has happened....lots of sad stuff..I know that y'all don't know my family...but just please say a special prayer for my cousin Jason...he is going through a really rough time..so are his parents...they are all very special to me and are in need of some prayers...thanks!

on a MUCH lighter note..kaney's birthday ROCKED....I didn't get the invites (yes, the precious ones that y'all have already seen) mailed out..my mind was playing tricks on me..by not working...all of this craziness started on the eve of my birthday...and my week just was totally shot from there...........I procrastinated SO much (shock) that even i am amazed that I could TOTALLY pull of Kaney's birthday party...it was QUITE a success..kev cooked up some scrumptious DOVE and DUCK..yum..the cake was delicious and AWESOME and most of all Kane was the KING for the DAY! He had a BLAST...and I think that everyone else did too..even if i did have to call and invite people instead of sending out invites :)

Well, I have managed to do a few layouts....they are from QUEEN KRYSTAL http://www.polkadotpotato.com/ go and check out the potato bar...she is LOADED lots of GOODIEZ on there...GREAT stuFF and only 99cents! WOHOO! lots of other STUFf on there..I loaded up!

I hope that y'all have a FANTASTIC week...ice is expected in our neck of the woods on Tuesday..hmmmmmmmm..interesting to see how this is going to pan out....

hope you LOVE the layouts..they were FUN to do! More to come..promise! :) This week is going to be SUCH a better one than last week..I just know it! :)
