Cherished Moment.



I had the opportunity to meet this wonderful lady in April of this year. We instantly connected and chatted like we've known one another forever! I helped her the other day and she made a layout JUST FOR ME! I'm extremely excited because I LOVE HER WORK! Please check her blog out and be inspired...thanks a million, Robyn!



unfinished layouts...



Ever have those layouts that you think you are done with but then you look again and there is definately something missing?!? Well, I have a few of those laying around here. Very frustrating. How about you?

Finding Me...

I've decided.

I've decided to start a "ME" album. Some of you can relate (especially if you are a mother) to me when I explain how I never put me first, don't buy things for myself, just let myself go. I do this time and time again and then... I stop and realize that I can't anymore, so I do stuff for myself for awhile. Well, I'm at that point again...doing for myself. lol I've come to the conclusion that this will keep repeating itself. I don't get my hair cut every 6 weeks, I don't replace my shoes unless there are big holes in 'em, I don't buy myself clothes unless I NEED them, etc..etc.... Then one day I wake up and say to myself "hey, I need to do things for me. If I don't I'm going to go crazy!". Seriously, nobobdy is perfect. I get stressed, down, tired. Maybe it's the change of seasons too. Who knows. I don't want to spend the rest of the year figuring it out, but I want to do for ME right now. lol Yes, a little selfish but I'm over looking it. hehe Anyone else with me? Comment and tell me something you've done for YOU today!

What's under YOUR desk?


Ha. I have to share what is usually under my feet when I scrap! Yep, that is my 1.5 year old son, Brody. Sometimes he is patient and just lays down there for awhile, other times he sneaks up into my drawers...ughhh....gotta love him though.



Walmart find!!!


Are you sitting down??? These foam alpha sets were $1.47 each! They have BOTH upper and lower case letters. My local WM is restocking the scrap section and they just put these out. What a great addition to my alphas at a FANTASTIC price! Go get some!



Mother's Day...

Was wonderful. We didn't do anything too exciting but I truly know I'm appreciated! My hubby always buys me beautiful cards and takes the time to write why he loves me and thanks me for being a wonderful mother. Always makes me tear'y' eyed. I received gift certificates, wine rack, candles, and of course those hand made goodies my kid's bring home from school. I'm lucky. As I tucked my kids in sunday night I told them that I had the best mother's day and asked them if they knew why...they looked at me puzzled. I told them that it was because I had each of them in my life to "mother". I thanked them for loving me and for allowing me to raise them the best that I am able to. They are still young...they smiled and hugged me. I love them to pieces....all THREE of them! I'm lucky, did I say that already?!?
