Wishing I were scrapping

Well, I'm doing EVERYTHING and ANYTHING but scrapping. Cleaning, organizing, painting...all 24 hours before I have 15 women in my living room for a tastefully simple party! It should be a good time...lots of food! That is always a good thing :)

I need to scrap, I have a couple of deadlines and a couple of calls that I want to submit to. Haven't had the time to that in a while. I got some of my Create My Keepsake DT layouts done though. We had MME as this months sponsor. Love their stuff! I also have the privelege of working with Heidi Grace this month for Luv2scrapook. Next month we have AMM and KI Memories to work with from Luv2 and 7 Gypsies for CMK. I love these 2 sites!



Well, I better go. My kids won't go to bed and I'm losing my voice. They are driving me nuts tonight!

Family Time

We've had a lot of that lately. Family time. I love spending time with the girls, outside, exploring, enjoying each other. Chad made this HUGE pile of leaves on Sunday for the girls to jump in. Of course it has been YEARS since I've taken the plunge into a pile of crunchy leaves so I took the leap, lol. BIG mistake. First off Taylor had to help pull me up and I spent the next hour picking bits and pieces of leaves from my underwear. Yes people, crunchy pieces of leaves were in my underwear. The girls thought it was the funniest thing in the world though :) So mission accomplished.

Ahhhh, darn blogger won't allow me to load the rest of my fall pictures :( I will atempt to do so later!

I Love Fall!

Wow, the leaves are changing SO fast here! What a beautiful sight, I love the array of warm colors :) A total fall fan here! This week we are going to Kurtz Pumpkin Patch to get our pumpkins. The girls love going into the pumpkin field to pick out "just the right" pumpkin!



I have been busy working on some 3 Bugs In A Rug layouts with their new releases "Smitten" and "Maverick." They are even better in person! Love their stuff! And I'm not quite sure what is going on with my scrappy style lately, but I love it. I am feeling the need to lean more towards clean lines and vibrant color. I love this hobby for the fact that it is always evolving!

Nothing much new here. Had a girls' night out on Saturday night. We had a SO MUCH FUN! 4 of my friends are teachers and they had some very interesting stories to say the least. We ate at Logan's, walked around Jefferson Pointe, and hung out at Starbuck's until midnight. I can't wait to do it again :)

Taylor is still kicking butt in soccer...I enjoy watching her play so much!

I just finished re-doing the girls' bedroom too. Their walls are now sky blue, and their bedding reminds of some yummy Scenic Route paper! Seriously, the colors are delicious!!!

OK, another special shout out to my friend Beth Opel. At Memory Trends, they will be announcing SOY (Scrapbooker of the Year) and she is a shoe in! A brilliant scrapbooker...I hope she wins!
