I honestly believe I probably have 0 people checking out my blog these days. Since I haven’t updated it in MANY MANY months! My apologies!! What has been going on in my life since my last post? Let’s see:
Heavenly Blessed had an amazing few months of growing retail products, donating and doing a successful fundraiser for children at hospitals with cancer (we donated 200 pairs of baby legs and over 100 cards to children), staying busy with an online store and retail store (Blvd at Noda).
My little ones have had birthday’s left and right! Over the summer my oldest turned 6 and my 2nd oldest turned 5. We gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, Kelstyn Joy July 3rd. We also have just enjoyed our family….getting into the groove of my husband working from home. We started our homeschool year July 6th….
Stampin Up had many exciting things going on and we enjoyed many camps….we took a few months off and are kicking back up the fun and excitment…
The Lord has been doing mightly things in the Cooper Household and we are just enjoying the ride. I can’t say it’s all been easy but we can count MANY blessings….
I am sorry I disappeared for so long, but I am excited to be back up and rolling!! I truly look forward to get back into the BLOG world

We have been truly enjoying stamping lately in this house, especially with many of my stampin gals that come monthly! It’s been such a blast learning new things, making new samples and GETTING EASTER GOODIES ON THEIR WAY!!!
This basket is using the Big Shot Top Note! This basket really took 5 minutes, super simple and easy. found it surfing blogs. Check out the tutorial here.Thanks so much for sharing this super cute idea with us. I did edit mine some. I switched the handle and left off the tag, I also used the Stampin Up Jumbo eyelets and the crop a dile on the side handles.
If anyone recreates please post your links, I would LOVE to see the colors and all you did!! Super cute and the perfect size for goodies, you can had more than a few peices but not too big to be too expensive! The Girls can’t wait to make some for the family!!
I hope everyone has a blessed day. It’s rainy and foggy here, so we are just having a lazy pj day. We just finished school and we are just hanging out and playing!

You know, I haven’t scrapbooked in over a year! I remember the last day I scrapbooked so well, which is kind of weird but maybe it’s because I was a day or two past my due date with my 4th blessing. Figured if I couldn’t hold a little one I might as well scrapbook some family pictures! Oh the memories.
Anyway, these scrapbook pictures of are my little blessings….although they are growing….blooming should I say?! This scrapbook kit is from Stampin Up and it’s so sweet and perfect for boy or girl. We are doing these 2 lay out pages at my crop Saturday evening.
For those scrapbookers in or around the Charlotte area, we hold 2 monthly crops at my house- 3rd Tuesday or 3rd Saturday of each month. It’s free to come and scrapbook from 6:30-midnight. We each just bring a little snack to share….it’s a lot of fun. There are always a 12×12 layout spread you can make if you want to for $6.00, but you don’t have to!
Now I am so excited I want to start scrapbooking now to get in the groove for Friday!!
Speaking of blooming, it’s been raining here since Friday and praise the Lord we have sunshine….God’s beauty is just amazing to me! With the sun back the warm weather is back so we hope to go play when the little ones nap. We have a friend with us today as well and I am sure she will love to play outside too!!
I Hope everyone truly has a blessed day, off before the little ones rise so I can be ready

Are you staying dry? Here it’s been ready a good slowly/steady ran all day. It’s been a blessing, but it’s been wet. We had a very fun day of celebrating my 3rd daughter’s 3rd birthday. That is kind of confusing!! Our precious baby girl is growing up so fast. Where does the time go!
Today has been one of those days where a lot of thinking is going on….thinking about who I am in the eyes of the Lord, who God has called me to be, who I once was…..lots of thinking. God is such a good and mightly God….it’s amazing to stand in his truth and wrap yourself around all the promises in His word. I can’t stop thinking about them all….
Which brings the beautiful card. Stampin Up of coarse- using Thoughts and Prayers stamp set which I LOVE!!! The designer paper I can’t see closely enough and it’s the famous very vanilla and always artichoke which seem to be some of my fav colors lately.
Hope everyone has a great evening it’s 11pm and I need to make some layout pages, plus clean up and put away some dishes and clean up lots of presents in the living room before heading to bed. I hope everyone has a blessed Sunday….

I just realized today that I haven’t posted on my blog in ages!!! I am so sorry….boy how I have missed it. Trying to adjust to life and new situations the Lord is putting in out way…
Around here we have been busy planning for our 5th baby GIRL coming soon!! My husband has relaunched his computer business from home and we are just reworking schedules, enjoy the little ones and all the blessing the Lord has given us!!
I have started to pick up my Stampin Up business more and more. It’s been a lot of fun!! So I shouldn’t have a problem coming up with daily samples for everyone.
Speaking of samples I had a business order (Heavenly Blessed is doing great as well and stay in touch because I hope to have several more retail companies and lots new products coming soon!) and it was for St Patty’s Day. How fun is that!?! So I came up with this little guy and green m&m’s. Now did you know that these are on clearance because they are for Valentine’s Day….it’s said that green is the new color of LOVE LOL (says the package!)….
I thought it was so super cute!! I hope you guys have a blessed day and instead of a longer novel now I will be in touch with upcoming things and lots more pictures as the days go by
Have a blessed evening!!
