Well She got 'em

2009-01-28T14:12:00.000-08:00

Alesha's glasses came in today, since they had a 1/2 day we headed for the dr's and just got home of course I had to get pics LOL so wanted to share. I think they look great on her, It was funny watching her "see" again LOL She was reading everything she could

This is her before she got glasses and her with them. they fit her personality

More scrappin and goals met

2009-01-27T17:56:00.000-08:00

Getting some scrappin in

2009-01-23T18:43:00.000-08:00

Its been so long since I have scrapped or at least it feels that way LOL I was able to scrap yesturday and it felt so good ( i wasnt so lucky today though) Hoping to scrap some more this weekend So here is what I have gotten done ( oh and now I am only 2 away from my goal this month Wooohooo

Glasses again

2009-01-20T06:31:00.000-08:00

Well I took Alesha to Eye Dr's Yesturday for a checkup she has been getting headaches at school alot so figured it was time. Turns out her vision is actually well but she indeed needs glasses for reading and computer. Her Dr put the prescription lens in and had her read a book for about 10 minutes to make sure no headaches occured. Unfortunaly for her the Dr asked Ambyr if she could use her book LOL so Alesha got stuck reading Stephen King LOL Here are a couple "aweful" pics I snapped with my cell phone. they aren't the best but owell. She looked so goofy in these..... They wouldnt let me take pics of her trying on glasses Not sure why but owell

Then on the way home she said MOM I dont want Braces, I said where did that come from she then said MOM I WILL LOOK LIKE UGLY BETTY!!! LMAO LMAO She said she would only have 1 at a time either glasses or braces Not both ..

Well here we go again

2009-01-18T19:33:00.000-08:00

almost 10 ten has passed since my last post UGGGh...... Which also means I havent scrapped in almost 10 days. THATS WRONG!!!! lol Well I guess with Sick kids and house that needed cleaned it went by too fast. I am determined to get some scrapping in this week LOL.......I have finally finished the Twilight Saga so I wont have that distraction heheheh.....

I have been busy

2009-01-09T16:48:00.000-08:00

I have been busy the last 2 days It felt nice to just sit down and scrap with no distractions LOL Here is everything I have gotten done I am planning to do more this weekend too

Finally a scrap day

2009-01-05T18:43:00.001-08:00

I didn't get alot done but did get 3 Lo's completed. I am having a hard time "getting my mojo in gear" So I just went with the flow on these I like how they turned out.

I blurred out the word as I didnt want to offend anyone ;)
The story is My DH was being a a*& on the first day of school last year. I wanted a pic of him with the girls and he made me take a pic of there "booties" BECAUSE.... Every year since the girls started school I ALWAYS take a picture of there backs ( you know with there back packs on) its smething I just do well he wanted to be included in the "Rear view"

My Horse is a hoot He loves doing this face, He does it often I was just glad I was able to get a picture of him LOL....

Alesha this past Halloween, I loved this picture of her So went simple with the LO to focus more on her

Closeup of the Web I glittered

OMG I am a Slacker!!!

2009-01-01T19:50:00.000-08:00

I havent updated in soooo long its pitiful......I havent even visited anyones in awhile... Uggggh thats bad. But with the Holidays I have been busy with the Girls and Hubby....It has been a great Break though, I have had alot of fun just chillin with them, Going to be kinda sad when the girls head back to school Monday as well as DH heading back to work. It will be so quiet around here :( What will I ever do with my time....HMMMMM SCRAPBOOK sounds fun LOL I have a goal set for 2009 and lets hope I can keep it My goal is at least 20 LO's a month, for a Grand total of 240 this year..... That is such a big number........ So I really better get started LOL, it wont be so bad this winter but come spring and summer it will be tough as I know I will want to be outside.... But we will see when it comes that time I suppose.....

I Hope everyone had a WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS and you all have a HAPPY NEW YEAR......

Welll I did it WOOOHOO

2008-12-13T12:20:00.001-08:00

I FINALLY finished all my Christmas cards and Even got them in the Mail today So be on the look out ladies ;) LOLOL Here are a few more I have made.

And then A layout too

I printed the Christmas song

Santa Looked A Lot Like Daddy
By: Garth Brooks

Santa looked like daddy,
Or daddy looked like him.
It's not the way I had him pictured,
Santa was a' much too thin.
He didn't come down the chimney,
So momma must have let him in.
Santa looked a lot like daddy
Or daddy looked a lot like him.

Well, they thought I was fast a' sleepin',
They thought that I was tucked in bed.
They never thought I'd come a' peepin',
Or that I'd hear what was said.
Santa put his arm around momma,
And momma put her arm around him.
So if Santa Claus ain't daddy,
Then I'm a gonna tell on them.

Santa looked like daddy,
Or daddy looked like him.
It's not the way I had him pictured,
Santa was a' much too thin.
He didn't come down the chimney,
So momma must have let him in.
Santa looked a lot like daddy
Or daddy looked a lot like him.

I never saw Dancer or Prancer,
I never heard the sleigh bells ring.
An' I never saw the Red Nosed reindeer,
Like they show on the TV screen.
But he sure brought a lot of presents,
So Santa Claus, he must have been.
And Santa looked a lot like daddy
Or daddy looked a lot like him.

Happy Thanksgiving....

2008-11-26T20:24:00.000-08:00

I wanted to take this time to wish all my Friends and Family a Very Happy Thanksgiving.....

Thanksgiving Day is more than just a holiday for giving many thanks for our blessings, and prayers for the less fortunate. Thanksgiving Day is a day for forgiveness. I know that there are times in every ones lives that they have a disagreement and well it just becomes a big silent treatment type of situation... I have learned to let things go and Forgive and forget. I am Nothing without my FAMILY and my wonderful FRIENDS.... So I want to take this time to say If I have ever hurt you in any way I am sorry, and I forgive those that have hurt me..... Its amazing words are so powerful and with even one word can tear a family and or a friendship apart. So on that note if you are reading this and still holding that grudge its time to Let it go and move on, Life is to short and Family /friendship is soo important...

I am so Thankful for My Wonderful Husband my 2 beautiful daughters, My health , My family, My friends, and so much more.....

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!

I got an award :)

First off Thanks for the sweet words and hugs about Butch. He is in a better place ( i have to keep telling myself that) I havent had time to scrap lately ugggh. I have been working on a few things for christmas. trying to get things figured out for the girls and since they read this I am not posting anything, because they are big snoops LOL...... I am hoping over this long weekend I can scrap some..... Kids and DH are home Wed-Sun so just maybe ...... Didnt get alot done this past weekend.Got Hay moved into Flashes pasture. he was in heaven LOL So I will leave you with a picture of him.... This one cracked me up Not sure if he was "sleeping" or "falling in love" But either way it is funny. you can see him better if you click on the pic... well until next time enjoy

Saying goodbye is never easy

2008-11-20T08:58:00.000-08:00

Today I got the call that my mom had to put down our dog "Butch" he has been a part of our family for 18 years. I have so many memories of him, he was the best dog, He loved to play and he loved to be with us all the time..He was so protective, such a joy to be with, . I knew he was getting fragile with every day, He was almost completely blind and his hearing had gone. he was in so much pain healthy as a horse but in a lot of pain.. Mom had to make this tough choice and even though I didn't get to say goodbye to him I know he will always remain in my heart. He has been in Ambyr and Alesha's life since they were born, He has been with scott and I since we met We had so many wonderful years with Butch. But he is in a better place now and is no longer in pain. I will miss him terribly, I will think of him often. I love you Butchy.

Boring Day

2008-11-15T20:44:00.001-08:00

So its always a blast having them come down for the weekend.. Here are a few of my fav pics from this weekend.

16 years!~!

2008-10-03T05:46:00.000-07:00

WOW it has been 16 years since DH and I said "I DO" Holy cow how time flies. yup we have had our ups and our downs but we are extremely happy. I love him more today then I ever thought possible. He is my everything!

Now granted DH and I have 2 anniversaries We do celebrate them both We eloped 16 years ago today and It was the most beautiful moment of our life. We just wanted to "secure" our love and my parents thought it was too soon * we met the end of June and were married 3 1/2 short months later. We knew what we wanted but Being I was afraid of my mother HAHA I kept it from her for well 11 years LOLOLOL But I found out I was pregnant shortly after DH and I eloped and was scared to tell my mom as she wanted the most beautiful wedding for me. Who was I to deny that to her. So we kept quiet and My mom had this gorgeous dress custom made for me. and we were due to be "married on Feb 13th 1993 and On Dec 9th I couldnt stand it any longer and called and told my mom I was almost 4 months pregnant and I was starting to really show. Yeah well She was furious but excited about her very first grandchild. to make a long story Short on Dec 19th ( 10 days after i told her I was prego) Dh and I said "I DO" again in front of all of our friends and family In this gorgeous church decorated to the max. Soooo Each ceremony holds its own special memories we knew we had to celebrate them both LOL......

Someday I really need to scrap that story LOL.

So Thats it for me today I am looking forward to the next many many many years with him. So Honey if you are reading this I just want you to know I LOVE YOU MORE THEN ANYTHING! You are my Life and I am so thankful for you.

Happy Monday

2008-09-15T06:43:00.000-07:00

Happy Monday everyone.......

I want to wish my wonderful Husband Scott a Very HAPPY BIRTHDAY today. I love you sweetheart

Hope everyone had a great weekend, Ours was very Rainy and cold, But the sun is out today so that is a plus .I got a couple Layouts done this weekend. Both for challenges on the Scrap Attack

Here is What I got done this first one was for a scraplift challenge. I scraplifted one of the members on the forum Peggy. here is her LO http://www.scrapattackscrapbooking.com/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/24610/ppuser/87

And here is mine

This one was for Alecia's Sketch Challenge

On another note I SCORED big time this weekend while we were out.... Went into a tool store with DH ( which also has misc computer, household items) was walking around and my eyes zoomed in on the "Cricut symbol" thought NO WAY. Sure enough it was the Cricut Design Studio Brand New in the package, I looked at the price and snagged that puppy up. I got it for .....You ready for this...... $4.99 NO JOKE I about wet myself LOL I dont know if it was mis priced or what But I wasnt about to ask questions LOL I got home and went to town playing with it.... In the 4th of july LO above I used it to create the title........

Alrighty that is it for now Hope everyone has a wonderful Day

Half way to the weekend

2008-09-10T18:08:00.000-07:00

Well we are half way to the weekend WOOHOO. I think now that school has started back up I look forward to the weekend because I can sleep in and just relax. I had intentions of scrapping today but woke up with a killer migraine so I didn't do much of anything today. Hope tomarrow is better. I need to get some thank you cards made for sure. I also got me a 2 new cricut cartridges coming. I soo cant wait to get them and play with them. I have the PLANTIN SCHOOLBOOKand the JASMINE one coming. Hope they get here by the weekend But I doubt it LOL.

Alesha's 13th Birthday is next week so have to plan for that as well. She is having a BON-FIRE She invited 22 ppl and so far only have 7 RSVP's I really hope more show up. I know I may regret saying that but you only become a teenager once LOL. And of course she wants it all. You know things Like a new computer a 4 wheeler cell phone etc etc.....Sheesh I dont have any babys left. they dont like toys anymore. which makes shopping so hard ugggh

Candle News
I got my candle kit today and was in awe. holy cow I got 80 different scents I am soo in love LOL. Now I know I will be ordering my favorties pretty soon. YUMM-O The girls have their favorites too. I think over the next month or 2 I am going to order some for their rooms as well. I am still learning I am confused on so many things. I think I will sit down and read the handbook and get more familiar with it tomarrow. I will be a pro at it one of these days HAHA

A Scrappy Weekend

2008-09-07T18:41:00.000-07:00

Other then that not to much went on this weekend. Worked a little outside got the horse moved over to the other pasture. and got a butt load of laundry done... Ambyr leaves for Jefferson City tomarrow for a TSA Meeting, she will be back Tuesday evening.

Candle News

My Candle Kit should be here on Wednesday I can not wait to smell all the yummy scents I believe I am getting 60 or 70 scents. One of my friends is booking a party for next month. As with any new business things start out slow But I am sure it will pick up after I get my name out there. I am excited. Still so new so I have alot to learn still

I LOVE Good News

2008-09-04T11:57:00.000-07:00

Well today I took Alesha to the Easr Dr for her Post Op visit and the goodnews is she has 100% hearing again..... I am sooo excited I cant even begin to tell you how this makes me feel.....Although she still has a small hole in her ear but they did a patch today in the office over half of the hole so she has 6 weeks until her next appoitment so we will see if it heals completely or not... But either way we are both so happy that she is on the mend WOOOOOHOOOO

Next!!!!!

I am now a consultant for a wickless candle company called Scentsy(my sister got me started) and OMG this is the absolute best candle out there.... I am sooo not kidding. I have had tons of candles and this one is the best...No I am not just saying that because I want busines because there is NO WAY I would invest my own money and time into it If i didnt believe it 100%. My sister has sold them for some time well she gave me one for my b-day and ever since then I have been in LOVE. the scents are amazing and they last so long. and the best thing is they are SAFE. No wick, No flame, No soot, No smoke, and No wax evaporation AWESOME I TELL YOU AWESOME....If you get a moment take a peek at my site ...I have also added a link to the side so you can always find it........ *******GO SCENTS********

September already???

2008-09-02T11:51:00.000-07:00

Holy smokes where has the summer gone. Sheesh just seems like yesturday summer break started. Before to long we will have snow on the ground YUCK!! lol..... Well Labor Day weekend was jam packed full of working outside in the dirt LOL We had to dig a 3 ft deep and 200 ft long trench for a waterline to the barn and that literally took all 3 days. But we finished that up around 7pm last night....

I was able to get one LO done thought which felt good. I did the Scrap Attack Bog Challenge I loved how this turned out suimple but perfect for me LOL

I did get another one started but havent had the chance to finish it yet.

We also had some fun on the 4 Wheeler too. Alesha learned how to drive it by herself this weekend the 4 wheeler has a clutch so she learned how to use it very quickly. She took me for a ride too Oh My she went over one of the jumps ( we have a 4 wheeler track with a bunch of huge jumps) and one of them *as shown in the picture* scared the crap out of me LMAO. She flew over it and Ambyr got the pic to prove it Oh My........

Anyway that was my weekend ! until next time have a great one
