Just wanted to share a few pages. I've gotten a chance to scrap a little lately. I started back to Weight Watchers on Monday, so far so good. I'll keep you posted. I'm praying I can actually stick to it this time. I'm at the heaviest I've ever been and its depressing.
Until we own our very own little house! I'm a little nervous and stressed, but I"m so looking forward to it. The biggest thing is making sure we have enough to do the kitchen and the other minor things we have to do. Like paint, etc. We'll be cutting it soooo close on what we have saved to get the kitchen cabinets, applicances and pay the down payment, etc. Anyhow, I can't freakin' wait! I just don't want to go in debt again other than the mortage, KWIM? It took us sooo long to get out of it.
Anyhow, I did a little scrapping I thought I'd share.
I've had a few people ask me what kits I used to scrap my Disney photos, since you can't find any actual Disney stuff because of the copyright laws.
So, I've got them all right here, with the exception of 2 pages, I used these kits for 34 pages of Disney stuff.
The last 3 kits are at Scrapmatters.com and everything else is at Sweet Shoppe Designs.com, I hope this helps some people out, it took me awhile to find what I was looking for.
I'm not exactly how many pages I scrapped between yesterday and today, but I've managed to get all most of our Disney photos scrapped, I just have 2 more Disney pages to do and 3 more for March and I'll be ready to order my January, February, March 2010 Album. Which is good, I want to do some of the challenges at the sweet shoppe and work on my book of me album.
Just a few I've done. One thing that does suck about digi scrapping is because of the copyright laws you can't have an exact Disney kit, so you have to make do and I've been lucky to find several great Disney kits to work with. I think I have 10 in my collection and right now I'm sitting at 38 pages I've done for our 3 day trip to Disney. LOL!
Tonight we went over to my inlaws for dinner and games. It was nice to be around grown-ups. LOL! This week is going to be so busy for me, I start back to school on Monday, Tuesday I have an appointment about my gallbladder, Wednesday Class, Thursday Keira's chemo, Friday clean, groceries, Saturday Zoo, Sunday Keira's 5th Birthday! And the following week is almost as busy, school, Keira's preschool graduation.
Hope everyone has a nice Mother's Day tomorrow!
I have been scrapping lately, trying to finish up March so I can get my album printed. I'm almost finished with the Disney World photos, they're taking up the biggest part of my scrapping time since there are so many Disney photos.
these are just a few I posted to the galleries today. Nothing exciting, but I'm slowly getting caught up.
I really wanted to scrap these pictures, so here's a new page. Now whether or not I'll scrap anything else anytime soon, I don't know. LOL! But I wanted to get this page done.
For the first time in I guess 2 weeks, at least.
To be honest, I haven't felt like blogging and really haven't had much to blog about since we got back from Florida. I thought the weather was warming up, but it turned cold again this weekend, which just put me in a foul mood.
I started Weight Watchers a couple weeks ago, actually going to the meetings, doing it online just wasn't cutting it for me. So, in 2 weeks I've lost 7.8 pounds, I'm so happy about that, hopefully this week I'll cross into the 10 pounds lost range. I'm feeling good and motivated.
Today we had a cheet day after I weighed in, still only using my points and weekly points, but I think I went a tad overboard. Still in my range, but what are you going to do, I wrote it all down. I've been working out, 4 days last week, 3 days the week before. I'm going to aim for 5 days this week, although not tonight, its my offical day off. LOL!
Here are a few pages I've been doing this weekend.
That page is from tonight, Keira and Sean went to a Father Daughter Dance and she posed for me before she left.
I'll try to blog again soon. If I have anything interesting to talk about.
Well, I'm back from vacation, not sure I'm totally back, but I'm here in spirt. My Cooper is 2 now, he had his birthday on our trip and my Aunt & Uncle were nice enough to have him a second birthday party to spoil him even more. LOL!
We had a digi meet and greet that was super fun!
We went to Georiga and then on to Florida on our visit. Stopped in Georgia to spend a few days with my Uncle Wayne and Aunt Gail, I haven't seen them in 10 years. My cousin Jennifer and her new husband also came to visit me, it was so great. I got to see my Granny Coursey, Aunt Vonnie, Uncle Steve and my cousin Josh too, so it was a nice trip.
We went to Florida to visit my Papa Kermit & Crazy Papa, and my best friends, Robyn, Jolene and Lara. I wish I'd have had more time with them. Keira loved it there because Robyn, Jolene and Amanda all have kids her age, so she had plenty of friends to play with.
And after our 2 short days in Dixie County, we headed to Disney for our first family trip. First we went to Downtown Disney on Thursday, did the T-Rex Prehistoric Family Adventure, the food was good, pricey, but it was so neat, all the dinos and lights, just really cool. The kids each made a Dino, like Build a Bear.
We also spoiled Keira by taking her to the Bippity Boppity Boutique for a make over.
The rest of the day we just enjoyed the shops and walking around.
The next day it was on to The Magic Kingdom or Mickey Mouse's house as I told Keira. LOL!
It was a fun day, with the exception that I realized Coop was cutting his 2 year molars, which explained a little of his grumpiness, we're in the full swing of terrible twos right now. He didn't like the characters at all, even the people ones. Keira did, she loved it.
Saturday before we headed home we did a Character Breakfast and it was wonderful!
and we headed home after that, we stopped in Savannah, I really should have researched the city, we didn't do much, walked around a little and stopped at the Paula Deen store, I got some awesome Salad Dressing and steak sauce. The Lady and Sons was all full for dinner, so we didn't eat, but we saw it. LOL!
It was a long trip, we forgot Keira's purple bear at a hotel in SC, I was a wreak, I'll tie it to her arm next time. LOL!
Now, my tips for Disney, if you hate lines, do a Character Meal, when we go back I'm going to probably do 2 of them, one with the Princesses and one with either Mickey or something else the kids want to do.
If you don't do a meal and want to meet them, go to them first in the park, it only took us about 10 minutes to see Ariel, and she was one of our first stops, we missed out on Tigger and Pooh because they did a shift change, we were all hungry and Cooper was tired of sitting, so we didn't wait for them.
DON'T TAKE A TWO YEAR OLD unless you know they love all things Disney and can take the waiting and keep in mind, most lines you can't take a stroller.
Do Not Take a big camera. I regret taking mine, I felt extremely limited, I'm going to get a nice point and shoot for out in public places. My lens, flash and camera weighed a ton! And if you do the photo pass thing, even if you missed a major shot, they might have gotten it.
TAKE TAMPONS WITH YOU and Midol!! Yep, you guessed it, we were standing in line waiting on the park to open and my least favorite time of the month arrived without warning. I always have them with me except that day, I put everything in my camera bag so I'd only have 1 bag and I didn't put any in there. I had to ask the guy at the gift shop outside the gate, a pack of 10 costed me $5 bucks and they were not my brand, which you know how that is if they aren't what you're use to.
We're planning on going back for an extended stay with Cooper is around 4, Keira will be 6, almost 7. She did great with the lines and everything, so I think that'll be better. One day/One park is more than enough for a 2 year old.
Oh, and my project 365 is dead, I'm too bored with it. Maybe I'll try again next year.
And lastly, I've done a few pages since getting home.
I put this weeks photos in the 365 album if you want to take a look. Things are getting busy around here, I've got a mid term next week, Cooper's b-day party is Sunday, I got the brisket marinating, gotta make the pasta salad and pigs in a blanket on Sunday, presents are wrapped.
My next task packing for our trip that we leave for on Friday! I talked to my bestest friends Robyn and Jolene today, got me even more excited.
Coop will be 2 years old a week from Sunday, man, I can't believe it. My boy is growing too fast, talking too much and man has he hit the terrible twos! I see little babies and think man I wish I could have another one and then Coop starts screaming at me and I remember why I had my tubes tied. LOL!
Just a page to share, I haven't done much scrapping this week, no motivation.
Oh, I almost forgot, we got our taxes back which means we are one step closer to being debt free!!!!! And, Sean let me invest in my soon to be business, I bought a Canon 24-70mm 2.8L lens and I sold my 30mm 1.4 so that I could pick up an 85mm 1.8, I only ended up paying $50 bucks out of pocket for it, I've ogot mail the 30 tomorrow to its new owner.
And speaking of my one day business, if you aren't a fan of me on Facebook, please become one, there isn't much there right now, but I hope after our Florida trip I'll get some practive on family and friends.
