Graduations....scrapping...summer fun...

What a crazy last month this has been! THANK YOU for all your sweet and endearing comments about our sweet kitty! You all are so sweet! Well, the past two weeks, we had two little babies graduate! Ahhhh! Mattie from preschool and Joshua from Kindergarten.  How sweet is it to watch little ones graduate? TOO SWEET for words I tell ya! :) 

Well the past week I also was able to catch up completely on my 365 layouts! HOORAY! I now know that with almost 5 months of pictures scrapped and done, this 2009 scrapbook is going to ROCK and I know my family will love looking at all the sweet things that have taken place! It is SUPER hard being consistent, especially with taking pictures, but wow what a kewl reward this will be! :) Here's the pages I have caught up on! LOOOOVE to digital scrap...I always say it's just sooooo wonderful to sit and record memories...so relaxing and such a nice way to chill! :)

Having to say goodbye....

...to my sweetest kitty! He was 15 years old and I just loved this cat to pieces.  It's so hard when you lose a pet. They are just like family.  Honestly I never liked cats!  I always had beagles.  But this cat was SO DIFFERENT!  He was the sweetest cat to me right when my dog passed away 15 years ago.  It was almost like he took on her personality and for that he was just the best!  I always thought that after having children, losing a pet might be a tad easier.  But no way.  I've just been so sad the past few days as I watched him slowly leaving us.  And I know pets are not human.  But still it hurts a lot.  I will just miss seeing him sit in our window.  I'll miss hearing him meow and crawl under my chair while I work.  I'll miss seeing him cuddle up on the kids' bed and fall asleep with them.  This cat has been with me for so long.  From breaking up with boyfriends, to meeting Chris, getting married, moving all over different states, having babies and having the kids just love him.  My dad helped me bury him today on their property.  It's just hard for me since he was with me so long! If you have lost pets, I know how sad it is.  Honestly they are just not pets but little friends that make your days a little brighter!!  To my darling kitty, I will always miss you and never forget you!!!!  Thank you for making our lives that much sweeter!!

~~SPLISH SPLASH~~

It's SPLISH SPLASH TIME! Summer is right around the corner and there is so much WATER FUN going on! :)  SO hurry and go check it all out!  Click here to go see! :)

a few new pictures...

Just a few pics to share...Mattie's Birthday cake was fun to make! I've decided a few years back to challenge myself and not buy store bought cakes for their birthdays. SO far so good...it's pushing me to be creative on the sweet side.   LOL

Also, a fun field trip was at a Beauty and the Beast play! WAY KEWL!  And just catching up on 365 layouts...anyone else struggling? :) Time is just not fair sometimes! 

Smooochies!

So here we are...

...lol..putting a few new goodies in the shoppe...Lanne had her AMAZING goodies done! She is just SO CLEVER and creative and talented..just check out  her new goods! :) These BLOG Frames are just DELISH! I totally will be using these for my pages! :)  And are her sweet treats just FAB or what? I totally see "ELEGANT" written all over them! :) 

 

Here's my funny! I am TRYING to get ahead on my Project 365 pages...just so I don't fall behind again! I mean really, how fun will it be at the end of 2009 to see a full book of weekly pages? Shari has been AWESOME in encouraging me...I mean....pm'ing me all the time asking me where my pages are! :) Love her! LOL So I am scrapping....and what am I scrapping about? Movie NIGHT! LOL This is our kids' little tradition now.  Basically we rent some kids' dvd's....after dinner..the kiddies start to create a little theater in mommy and daddy's walk in closet! LOL They bring in their snacks, pillows and blankies. Then they put their top dvd choice on the little portable dvd player. LOL SO funny! The doors get closed, it's dark..and wallah..MOVIE NIGHT! It's just hilarious and they absolutely LOVE every part of movie night. So I had to scrap about it. But I needed some movie night elements to add to this page? I had none...so wallah...here they are! LOL In all their glory..Movie Night Trinkets! :) 

And here is my double spread layout I managed to complete with it! Hooray..another one down. :) 

K hope that wasn't long winded or anything! :) Hope you all are enjoying your scrapping! It truly is a great way to remember all these sweet moments! :)

~~Happy almost Easter~~

I just wanted to wish you all a HAPPY EASTER! :) And also share some fun new stuff with you all! :) I thrilled to be guesting at Scrapbook Graphics this month! :) SO much fun! :) And here's the FUN new stuff I have in their shoppe for the month! :) Check out the AMAZING pages the girls have created! Just awesome! :) 

 

Sooo are you all ready for Easter? I am just HOPING we get some warm weather for Sunday! Sometimes it's hit and miss these days..cold, warm, cold, warm. But we have some fun things planned so hoping for warm sunshine! :) Speaking of Easter, I've been SO BEHIND lately! LOL And I knew "coloring eggs" had to get done. So messy though! LOL So yesterday we let the kiddies at it. :) They did the tye dye and glitter egg kits. Super fun! Totally messy but it had to be done. :) Here's what they did. :) So much fun! 

Here's one of my favorite pages...when I first started scrapbooking! I just said "AHHH" seeing these little guys so little !:) Have a great one everyone! :) xoxox

Just a few pictures..

to share...our t-ball and softball season has started. Of course this is so much fun but again means mommy and daddy's schedule gets collided with other things. :) Gotta love that though. Anyone else feeling the craziness too? It's always fun though to catch up with other mommies and see how they are doing.  

In the meanwhile, mommy and daddy are busy making changes to our house. We are painting the inside a rich warm brown color. Chris installed our new faucet. I love it.  We needed that spray nozzle.  I just love those! Fun to squirt kids across the room with too! LOL (J/K) 

We are also getting new grass put in.  Chris ripped out the dead stuff yesterday! See I used Sheye's Eyecandy actions to make this look even more 'honeyized' outside! LOL 

I can't wait to get new green stuff! :) Should be nice.  Anyways, that's pretty much all that's going on over here. :) I hope you are all having a great one! :)

And SO GLAD you are all enjoying those Project 365 Day Templates that are FREE in the shoppe!  I was SOOO not going to do this project! For one reason only...I have so little time in the day lately. But after my friend Shari mentioned she was going to do it, I thought to myself.."I can do this too"! LOL Especially since I've been taking lots more pictures with my new IPhone! Chris and I got these and seriously I don't know how I got along with out it now. It's so kewl to be able to WORK while on the go..ie at the pool, park, etc....and the APPLICATIONS are AMAAAZING!!!!  But if I can take pics with the IPhone, then I surely can SCRAP a week of pictures each week. So I did two so I am no caught up..just one more for this week. I think at the end of the year this will be a FAbuLOUS thing to look at! :) So anyways, if you aren't on our mailing list...please sign up on the top right hand on this bloggie...I think we'll be doing 365 templates free throughout the year...so you can join in on the fun! :)

Shabby Little Freebie

Is right here...So hurry and go nab it before it's gone! :) Muah!

a few things to share...

I have got a LOAD of pics to share today! :) So hold your horses..LOL First off, I have got to say that LANNE RULES! If you have not purchased her "BATCH" frame actions, you so have to! It's awesome and such a huge time saver!  She skyped me a lesson yesterday...love her Australian voice. And WOW! If you have a few, a TON of pictures to frame up, her actions rule for that! I took 20 pictures straight from the camera. I did this batch action and in seconds, the entire batch of pictures were sized down and had rounded corner frames on them. How awesome is that! So the action comes with this set and this set and their CU versions. AWESOME! I highly recommend them!

So here's some holiday pictures I "batched". :)



SO there is Santa! They just loved him so much this year! LOL This year we got the kids their own REAL tree for the family room. They got to decorate it with all their favorite ornaments and homemade ones too. They each have their own tree in their room too! LOL Chayce's is pin and the boys' is green.  There is the white shabby tree! I just can't seem to NOT put this one up every year. I can't wait to paint our walls sometime soon too! If we would have, this tree would have looked way better! LOL But still I (heart) it. :) Oh and does anyone else put garland stuff on their chandelier? LOL I thought that was a fun idea too! :)

Okay so here is the second part of this post! The AMAZING people at Daily Window contacted me about playing with some of their bags! Holy Cow! Awesome awesome site and PERFECT ideas for digi scrappers! So basically you digi scrap a sweet picture or layout to go inside the window! How kewl is this! Here is what I did and our kids LOVE these! :)

 

 

 

 

 

Aren't these just adorable or what? Perfect perfect gift for ANYONE! The bags I used were this, this and this. 

Okay I hope all these pictures don't scare ya! LOL Hope you are all doing fabulous and enjoying the wintery weather. :)
