I'm alive

I'm alive...we've just been so busy. I've turned into a taxi for my children. Today was the first day in forever we haven't had any plans. whew!! I'm still in my sweatpants. LOL sorry for the bad mental image but they are comfy.
Here's a run down of what we've been up to.
*Cheer Practice- Gigi has it 4 days a week Lexi has it 1 day a week.
*Football games on Sunday
*School- Gigi is a 3rd grader and Lexi is in Kindergarten.
*I'm a volunteer a couple days a week in Lexi's class.
*Lexi has started dance class on Thursdays once Gigi is done with competition cheering, she'll be in dance class.
*Weekends we been doing fun non-cheer related stuff. Late summer was birthday parties and swim parties. Now it's fallish activities. I LOVE FALL!!





We are just having fun as a family!

I've attached the last 2 LOs I made. I feel slightly inspired right now so hopefully I'll get scrappy tonight.



I'll blog again soon!
Love and Hugs!

catching up!!

I finally scrapped. Whoo hoo!! I did a LO and card. It felt good to play with paper again. I even made cute bookmarks for back to school.



Tomorrow Gigi starts 3rd grade and Thursday Lexi starts kindergarten. I should be able to play more, I really don't know what I'm gonna do with both of them gone. I'll probably clean and organize and maybe play.

I don't want to overwhelm y'all with tons of pictures...but we've played, gone to the zoo, gone swimming, hung out, been to a bon fire, cheer practice, football games, birthday parties and just have had tons of fun. Oh and Gigi celebrated her 8th birthday.

In 2 weeks Gigi should be completely healed from her broken arm and she's decided she wants to do competition cheer. So I guess, we'll continue to be busy once school starts.

I hope everyone has a great fabulous week!!

Love and Hugs!!

I'm a bad blogger...

We've been crazy busy around here. I did do a few LOs last week but I have edited them yet. I've been editing Pittsburgh pics and night pics.

I will update this week with some good pics and new LOs. :) I promise to be a good blogger again. :)

Hopefully..

I hope to get my scrapping mojo back. We've been busy with other things, it seems like scrapping has taken a back seat. In two weeks I've done 2 LOs. Can you believe that??

Here's the LO..I got done this week. It's a picture CJ took last weekend on the photowalk. It's son Erik and my Lexi at the Alter of a local church. He really wants to marry her. I think it's so cute..but my hubby doesn't think so. You should check out CJ's...we used the same sketch this week. It's from 52 sketches.


Here's my 2 little Wildcats:




Gigi's arm is still broken, but we decided to take the sling off for the pictures. She's the best one armed cheerleader.

Today us girls had a "at home spa day" I did their nails, we had makeovers ( I let my 5 and 7 year old do my makeup). We had so much fun. We also made cupcakes..it was a perfect afternoon.
Here's some post makeover pics...yep I put make up on them. They both felt glamourous.







Blog Candy!!
Go to Melissa's site to win a Slice..it's her blogaversary. Good Luck!!

I hope everyone has a great week!! :)

Love and Hugs!!

Long Week

We've had a long week!!
Tuesday the girls started Cheerleading practices. Practices run from Monday through Thursday (they added a Monday practice to the schedule...yey me). There are 57 little cheerleaders on my daughters' squad. It's fun trying to watch them coach so many girls. All the cheers are coming back to me from last year. I catch myself saying them...."lets get fired up".


On Wednesday we were at a play date and Gigi fell down and broke her arm. We didn't realize it was broke until Thursday. We took her to the ER and the x-rays showed a crack in her humorous, right underneath her shoulder. It never swelled nor did it bruise.

With this break, they didn't give her a cast. But we have to treat her as if she had a cast. She can't run, jump, swim, or really play. We have to keep her arm immobile. She also has to learn how to do everything with her left hand. So the first night we all ate with our less dominate hand, so she would feel better. Also after dinner we had a hands free jello eating contest. (Tony won... imagine that)

The Doctor said she can't cheer-lead until September. She a little upset about this. I think she can do it with out jumping. She'll just be a one armed cheerleader. One thing she is happy about is that she can play on the computer a lot more.

Today we went on the 2nd Annual Worldwide Photo Walk for our region. Luckily CJ came with us. Our poor region had 3 participants. We walked around a local park and took some pictures. I need to edit them and upload them to a site. We took pictures of flowers, kids and ourselves. We found really good mirrors for self portraits ( I should have redone my make up before I went).


Here's the only LO I've made this week. It's of Lexi practicing her new cheers. She's now a little wildcat. She's so excited about cheerleading and she's so cute doing it too. I did it for 52 sketches.

Well I hope your week was more relaxed than ours. We have plans all the way until next Friday. Starting with a car wash tomorrow.
Take Care!!

Love and Hugs!
