I am in love!!!

Yes, I am in love with 2 new products. Actually I have had them for months but did not know what to do with them. After talking to my friend Kathy the other night, I decided to give it a try and I am in love.

Thanks Kathy!!

My Mini toilet paper roll album!!

I got this idea from Beate on Cafemom's!! It turned out better than I thought it would.

Tell me what you think?

This is a Valentines gift for my DH. He loves to put mini albums on his desk. He works in sales and get many comments about them. Probably why I like making them. Hee, Hee!!

I am happy with how it came out. Thanks Beate!!

Our son is 18!!!!!

where, oh where has the time gone. Seem like yesterday I was helping him learn to walk. It is amazing how fast they grow.

He celebrated by getting a Tattoo!! Yes that was all he wanted to do on his birthday. His Nanna, my mom, took him to get it. Rob and DJ went too. Thank goodness they did not get another one while they were there.

Here is the tattoo, it is on his right forearm:


Here he is blowing out his candles:

Our Disney trip!!

Well DH and I were able to go to Disney from Jan. 6th to Jan 8th. We had a blast. It is so different going with out the kids. I know... how mean of us. Well, they really did not want to come with us. They are teenagers, they don't like to be seen with their parents. lol!!

Here are some photos of the trip:

Happy to be scrapping!

Well I was able to get some more pages done. I am so happy to be scrapping again. I love the Holidays but it makes it hard to scrap when you are so busy with all the other stuff.

Here is a LO of our Family on Christmas Morning. Even the dog slipped in!!



Here is a LO of photos from 2001. I am almost done with the photos from that year. Try to do a LO everytime I scrap. Should be done in a month or so. I am trying to keep these LO's simple so that they fit well together with the other LO's from that year.


Here is a LO of photos from Homecoming 2008. My son and his girlfriend had a blast.

Got some pages done!!

Well I am starting the year off right. Got 3 Lo's done and it is only the 2nd. My goal is to do a LO for each day of the year. We will see how I do!!

Here is the first LO. It was a challenge on Cafemom.com



Here is the second one. It was a Sketch challenge on Letsscrapdivas.ning.com. I just love the sketches that Renee finds. They give me great inspiration!!



Here is the 3rd one. It was a challenge on Cafemom.com. I love this LO!!




Well that is what I did tonight. I plan on doing more tomorrow. Want to get the rest of 2008 done before the end of January.

Happy New Year

Well another year has come and gone. Seems to go by faster every year.
We have so much to be grateful for in 2008 and so much to look forward to in 2009.
I hope everyone had a great New Years!
Here's to a great 2009!!!
