It's Saturday!!

Yep...it's the weekend here again. It's been a long week but a great week!

Thursday, I went on a field trip with Gigi. We went to the local art museum and planetarium. She had a blast seeing all the stars and art. Her class was so good and well behaved. I felt very fortunate to be able to attend this field trip with them. Here's some pictures of our day. Gigi hated that I took pictures most of the day. She's getting to that age where she doesn't want her pictures taken all the time. But on the other hand Lexi wants to be in front of the camera at all times. She hams it up. :)

Here's Gigi at the Planetarium before the star show.

There are penguins all over this campus.

Here's a good shot of the campus and a penguin.

Here's a couple LOs I've done this week.

This one is for a challenge at AllyScraps.

This one is this week's 52 sketches.

I also updated my 365 blog with some new pictures. So click on over.

Have a fabulous weekend.
Love and Hugs!

The weekend isn't over here....

Yep...more snow means Gigi is home from school, so our weekend has extended. So we get to hang around here for another day. I know for sure we aren't going anywhere. So we might just play and scrap the day away. I'll probably do some more reading on my camera. But so far I'm in love with it.

Here's some reason projects:

I made this card for ScrapWhisper and won their prize....whoo hoo!! 30 rolls of American Craft Ribbons.

I did this for 52 sketches.


I did this just for fun, I used glitter and embossed a couple brads for it. Go here for a tutorial I created on embossing brads.
I hope you have a great Monday.

love and hugs!!

Lucky Me!!

I'm a lucky girl! Tony let me buy a DSLR from Circuit City. I got the last one in this area. I went to get a Nikon D40 but they ran out, so I got a Sony A350, with 14.2 mp. I'm seriously in love with this camera. I can't wait to learn all about it. I've been reading about digital photography for the past few days online.


here's a couple play shots I took:




Monday on Presidents day...we found something fun to do. Yep...I took the girls ice skating! We had so much fun. Gigi hit the ice a few times. Lexi fell once and I only fell once. I was proud because I haven't skated in years (12 years...ewwww). We all knew Lexi would do well...she's incredible at athletic stuff. Gigi is more clumpsy like me...plus she's in a growth spurt. :)



I will probably scrap some today/tonight. So, I'll post a LO soon. I hope you all have a great day.

Love and Hugs!!

Happy President's Day!!

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend. I've had a great weekend hanging with the girls. Tony had to work all weekend, thanks to V-Day. The girls and I have been wii-ing it up all weekend. Sorry no pics of me on the fit board. LOL My age has varied all weekend. It will get better..I'm just hoping Tony decides to do it. :)

Here's a couple LOs I made this weekend. :) Yesterday my buddy...CJ came over and we scrapped. Woot woot!! I made this one yesterday when she was here. :) It came from a sketch in page maps.


I think this LO came out really cute. It's for the Coordination Collections 1 page LO contest. I how can anyone not love her little kissy face. :)


These next two layouts I did for the Noel Mignon Valentines Crop. They came up with fabulous challenges. They are so talented and fun over there.



I hope you all have a fabulous day!!
Love and Hugs!

One year older!

It's official I'm a year and a few days older. This weekend we celebrated by going out to eat and hanging around at home. We didn't do much but that was fabulous. We chilled watched some movies and just enjoyed time together. I can't ask for more than that.

Yesterday we saw the ground for the first time in a month. It so great to see grass and not tons of white snow. Unfortunately the snow that is left is not very pretty. But here's proof that there is grass visible.

Here's some projects I created this week.




Oh I've been tagged a couple time for this. Thanks everyone whom tagged me!
Here's the 6th picture in my 6th folder. If you haven't done it...I'm tagging you!

It's of Lexi when she was a baby! :)

Thanks for looking and I hope you had a great weekend and a great week.
Hugs and Love!
