bored.

This is what you do when you have church at 9 am, both kids are napping and you have the rest of the day to do nothing.
Sit at the computer desk
explore the web
and take random pics of each other.



My new hair obsession is wearing feathers in my hair!! I found this clip at a local boutique but I have made some fun ones of my own. If you are interested maybe I will offer some here or something. Have a Happy Monday!

PS A popular question :) the boots are a Christmas present from Collin made by Sugar.

Those boots are cute. I love Sugar shoes...especially summer ones...they are too cute!

Love those feathers...I went through a phase where I put feathers on our oldest daughter as a baby.

the boots are awesome!! My hubby hates the uggs boots I am always wearing! Where did you guys take that "counting down" Pic? Do you naturally have that awesome wall or is it photoshopped?

Thanks so much for telling us where you got your boots. I'm really wanting to get the red and black check ones. I was wondering what size I should get. I normally where an 8 in Emu's. I think you said once that your were a size 8 once right? What size did you end up getting if you don't mind me asking. :)
TIA!
Mel
OKC, OK :)

I, too, have many pairs of Sugar boots. My favorite pair is the ones with Chuck Norris on them. Oh, wait, are we talking about underwear?

I love your boots. I actually have been looking for some I like and my husband gave me money for Christmas to buy some when I found them. Do you know where Collin got them? On the website you posted, I couldn't find your color. Do you know the style/color of yours? tblonquist@gmail.com or tblonquist@yahoo.com

My daughter is totally loving the feather clip too and so we were wondering if you do sell those if you could let us know. And since I'm sending this I t hought I'd also ask...do you know if the sunglasses are still circulating because I'm 99% sure I was included in the circulation, but I never did receive.

Thanks - Stacey

You have the cutest clothes, Elizabeth! Where do you shop?

hiscrappergirl said...

First, I am glad to know me and my hubby aren't the only computer geeks out there...LOL we IM each other down the hall while our daughter is napping, too and send ridiculous emails and links to each other.

and I love that feather clip - I may have to try my hand at that too. I make little girl hair clips (www.sweetpoppi.com/accessories). Yours reminds me of them only for bigger girls and mommies!! Maybe you could put up a tutorial or something, but I love them!!

{Erica} said...

Liz- can you email me and tell me where you got the feather clips...I'm in utah for another week and want to snag me some. If you're intrested I'd totally pay you to make a few for me...let me know! :)

The Sonboul's said...

Kimmie said...

Erin Nusbaum said...

Yes! Make some! Or maybe put a post on how to make them...

Your adorable! Such an inspiration!

janel. said...

BTW- I love your blog!! Just thought I would leave some comment love for you :) You are super creative and fun! THanks for the daily inspiration!

Heidi G said...

As others have asked, I can't find the style/color of the boots you have. I saw the picture in the January 2009 creating keepsake magazine too, so I assume it was last year? Maybe that color swatch isn't available this year??? Just wondering if you could narrow down the search now that you have us all combing the endless shoe website for your boots.

elizabeth kartchner said...

yay for cute boots. I asked Collin and he got mine last year at Nordstrom.
Not sure what to tell you about finding that particular color.
But I did see some other cute ones on that website! :)

here's to warm happy feeties.

elizabeth kartchner said...

Very cute clip. I love all of you pictures and scrap ideas. I was wondering what photo editing software you use? I am trying out Photo Shop Elements but I am not sure what works best for scrapbooking. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
