Yikes!

Well it's been a while since I've posted.... ANYTHING! Yikes. Time just goes right on by. My goal over the summer was to get caught up on my scrapbooking. Well i made it to Christmas 2010. LOL:) Not that far.

We have had a super busy summer and now fall. I got a job outside our home last year and have continued on with that this year. It's only 4 hours, but I'm finding it hard to fit in everything I want to do and work. Is that lame or what? I miss my free time. Why did I ever seek out a job? What was I thinking!?

Rick and I just celebrated our 14 year wedding anniversary. Yep that's right. We rock. I love him so much. Super lucky to have him in my life.

Okay so it's never to late to start a new goal.... New goal, be faithful in my blogging. Created and participate. Yep, that rhymed. I want to get back into doing layout challenges and checking out all those creative ladies blogs again. I really miss the card/scrapbooking world. Guess I'll have to give up my facebook addiction. It can happen, really.

My surprise!!

I had gone away for the night with a girlfriend. Had the best time ever! So refreashing! I can home to a spotless house, a welcome home sign, and this. My husband and 3 boys made a trip to Ikea and fixed up the closet I scrapbook in! He hung the fabric got matching rugs. New chair and desk. Even a wood block to go on my desk for when i need to hammer. Another bookcase, and several new containers. An Owl picture, because I love owls. All this in just a 24 hour period. Best surprise ever. I cried and cried. Then my husband even made dinner and cleaned up after. Told me to just relax.

Had a moment

Whats New?

Sick, Sick and more sick! When will we not be sick?! I haven't had much time or energy to do much. Except for trips to the doctor. With Super Bowl Sunday coming, I'm hoping to get more scrap pages done.

My birthday Gift

My oldest drew this for me for my birthday. I love it!

My birthday was spent on the couch with a horrible sinus infection:( Along with a child was sick. Not really sick, he seems to be developing a alergic reation to something. Which is really scary. Being that we have no idea what the issue is. He keeps breaking out into hives. So no shell fish, nut or chocolate till we see an allergist.

snow, snow, more snow

We have snow! Finally after months of nothing. Just in time for my birthday! I love the snow.
Hoping to use this weekend to get a few pages punched out!

2012 Not a Resolution

I'm not going to call this a resolution. Like many people come this time a year, I've been looking back at the year. Thinking of all I wish I had done or accomplished. Not as much as I hoped for.
So not resolutions.... just things I would like to try to accomplish. LOL:)

1. get back to scrap booking. I'm 2 years behind. Want to be caught up by summer.
2. read at least 2 books a month
3. plan family meals and make 3 new recipies a month
4. family game night... actually do it every week!
5. Lose that last 10 pounds by June. ( I'm down 1.5 lbs already:)

I'll be adding to the list I'm sure as the year goes by.
