I am down 5 more lbs!!!

Just sharing the excitement! That's 27 out of 60 lbs that I need to lose by November 21st. WOO HOO!!!

Creeping Christmas Tree

Or better known as Pitoriosis Roscea. UGH, stupid rash you get for 1-3 weeks after a virus. Elli has now had this, after the chicken pox. Are you kidding me? She gets vaccinated twice, gets chicken pox because I had the shingles, then she gets a virus supposedly on top of that (with no symptoms) and then breaks out in this horrid rash? Poor kid can't catch a break. Either can her mama. I still have phantom shingle pain :(

I scrapped!!!

I know, I can hardly believe it myself~ It's been months! I have been making cards, and doing swaps, and all sorts of creative stuff with the camera and the pictures that I print, but I haven't scrapped any of them. So. My friend Stephanie had a crop at her house, which is about a mile from my house, so it just made it easier. After some delicious taco dip, buffalo chicken dip, and some great girl conversation time, I had a product of four pages. like them as they are, but some of them need just a little something...

This one needs an ice cream cone embellishment.

I am not sure I like the frog as is on this Layout, but I am thinking of a way to spice it up!

This one I am die cutting a butterfly out of the red polka dot paper and the cream paper below it.

This one needs a green tractor or something under the title...


Other than that, I love them! It felt so good to be creative for a while, but now I know I need WAY more time!

Where have I been????

I know, I am a slacker!!! But only on the blog, I promise! I have been a busy girl just trying to get the house painted and get stuff together for more painting! no to mention trying to get the photography stuff off the ground. It's a busy days, filled with work, kids, house, and now a work out routine. See my friend is getting married in November and I have about 3 weeks left to order my dress. WHOA. I also have about 38 lbs to lose before November 21st as well. So for now, I will reap the benefits of victory for a repainted main floor and 22lbs down :)
