Scenic Route Kit

Scrapbooking!!!!!!!! Ahh how lovely






1. All of the layouts in the slide show above came from THIS KIT (it is a pre-fab kit, and I made the layouts to showcase at Scrap Etc ---they have it for sale---I think it's only $15.99 for all of this stuff----so you can see what all is in the kit) then I made 2 cards an additional layout, and a Do Not Disturb sign for my sis!


2. Then, I spent some time making fun layouts! I love the Arrgh! one! I love how it turned out. I've been holding on to that Hambly pirate ship until just the right mood!


3. I have one page to go in the Everyday album. It is so crazy cute!


4. I made the "i can" journal for my marathon training, and such. I will be putting all of my successes and woes in there, and then, journaling about it along the way. I am a major fan of Creative Cafe.........thanks Danelle, Kristi, and Melodee!


5. The happiness layout! My goodness! I love that pic of us! Thanks, Susie! That was a few products from Stemma, and I really needed to use those, and get that out of my way! I am liking all the pink with the castle!


Goodness! It feels good to be creative.

Chap's Surgery

Tubes were not so bad, the meds before were even better!

Props to David Cox for fabulous tunes on the guitar.

Yes, what a glorious day is April 16th! One of my most favorite days of the year! I don't share it with anyone, and I only do things that I like to do on my day! No laundry, no dishes, nope. Nothing bad. Just good, fun stuff! (if I can help it!)


So, I thought I would give a post of 33 things that I am already loving about being 33.

Is he cute or what?


I mean, that is a tall drink of water, right there! Look at him, standing out in a crowd (the bright shirt helps!!!) He is such a hunk! (total mom word!) Gonna miss him all week!
So, so much going on around here! Getting all geared up for the Scrap Etc Event, Scott's been in the garage getting ready for some Floodgate time at church, the tube surgery was a success, my 7th grader made it in the top 25 in his class, invited to the banquet (how much fun is that!). Proud Mom here!!!, spending some family time, boys playing with the dog, going fishing, a really cool get together on Sunday (praise God!) and then praying about a few other opportunities! Whew!
Oh, yeah, and ate a fresh Krispy Kreme this morning! Good day!
So, really, I guess my head is just swimming with stuff.........nothing major........just stuff kind of stuff.

Brotherly Love

Mason says (as he is headed out the door to spend the night with Aunt Chanda)," I love you, I hope your surgery is good, I hope they don't accidentally cut your ear off!"


**Love those positive vibes only a brother can send!!! Gotta love it.
