A Bushel and a Peck: Well, hello there!

Okay, I admit it. I am a blog failure. I believe this is blog number 4 (or maybe 5) that I have started in the past 7 or so years. A few of them have done okay and a few of them never got past the first post or two. However, this one will be it. This one is the one. I have just got to get my creativity out to everyone! I owe it to you. ;)

There will be a lot of free printables here. There will be quite a few "OMGosh, look what I found" posts. And there will definitely be some tutorials for uber cool crafts. There is a chance I might throw in a few homeschool things we are doing currently too, especially with my little kiddos.

Before I post my first freebie, I will tell you a teeny bit about myself.

I am 32 (getting into my 30's wasn't near as bad as I thought it would be!)
I have been married to the hubs for 14 years in October.
I have 5 wonderful kiddos ages 12 down to 2. We had 2 girls, a boy, and then 2 more girls. Everyone says they feel sorry for my son because he is the only boy, but I can tell you right now, he will make a wonderful husband one day!!!! Plus, hubs and the dog are boys too. :)
I am a Christian. I was raised in church and it has been with me my whole life. My beliefs are very important to me and in my triumphs and joys, God gets all the glory!!!
I love photography. I have loved it for a long long time and I am blessed to be able to do it on the side to make a bit of money for my small crafting addictions.
I love to craft. Period. Anything. Everything. All of it.
I love making things in Photoshop! Anything I make and put on here will be free. I can't think of any reason that I would charge for something. I love working in Photoshop and I love getting freebies. Why not pass that on to you guys?

So, now onto the very first freebie (on this blog anyway)! When I first got onto Pinterest (do any of you remember when you had to be 'invited' to join? OMGosh, that was a horrible wait!) I pinned a print that had 3 birds on it. One was a momma, one was a daddy, and one was a baby. The phrase on it said "First we had eachother. Then we had you. Now we have everything". It was adorable. I put it in my Photoshop It folder and moved on to other pins. Since then, it has been pinned (just from my pin) thousands of times. Every time I get on Pinterest tells me '42 people have pinned this pin', '26 people have pinned this pin' and so on. You get the idea. Anyway, I wanted to make my own version of it. I think it would be an absolutely adorable baby shower gift and it's free! I mean, you don't have to tell them that! You can tell them whatever you want. You have my blessing. ;) Or maybe just buy a super fancy frame to put it in. And a pack of diapers. Buy the mommy a pack of diapers. Please. But don't buy her newborn diapers, because other people will and then she will have newborn diapers coming out her ears when her baby (if born average size and not preemie) will wear newborn diapers for about a week to two weeks. Speaking from experience, buy her a giant pack of size ones. She will think of you and how generous you are when she opens that pack up. Trust me.

Now that I have rambled enough, check out this freebie. It is for as big as an 18x20 print, but you can print it as small as you need. 8x10 is the typical size, but personally I am a fan of 5x7.
