Carnival Nights....

I was so happy to get this layout completed. You know those layouts you feel pressure to complete like graduations, weddings, dance recitals. Don't get me wrong, I love doing them, I just hate the pressure I feel to get them done.

The reason it's completed though is purely one of those magical digi moments. So, wanna hear the story..lol..shaking your head, "uh no, not really" - ok, I'll tell it fast. Jessica has this challenge called "The Lunch Crunch" every other Thursday at 1:00 pm at GDS... So I decide to check it out *haven't had a moment to scrap a page in months, btw*. I go into the chat about 5 minutes late and there Jessica is saying "Use something red somewhere on your layout... you have 45 minutes to post in the gallery and link back here... Go!"

Whallaaaa... there it is in all it's 45 minutes completion Glory! Talk about a happy camper!!

Need Your Opinions?

Since it's Summer I've had this teeny tiny nagging to get this kit into the store ... do you like this kit? Would you use it if I put it up in the store? Please let me know what you think... I don't know whether it's really worth putting it out in the digiworld or not.

4 Days Until We Move

It's sad to leave our home. We live at the end of the earth..lol but it's a beautiful place. I am not sure if I'm going to miss it or not yet. I know I hate the drive, especially with all of Hannah's activities. There are kids all over the new neighborhood and we'll be back in civilization again... close to her school where she starts in August and close to everything else. Change. Maybe that's the problem. I'm not a good person dealing with change. and... Here we go again.

How hard is it to balance family and work?

Is anybody else out there struggling with this? I know I do.. every day. Being a mother, nurturer, cook, cleaner, animal caretaker, digiscrap designer, abstractor... and the list goes on and on... not really complaining. I'm blessed beyond measure. all of my children in good health and doing well. Everything else is just icing on the cake as far as I'm concerned... so why is this so hard sometimes?

Ok...lol.. back to juggling!

Snow Bunny

Hard to believe she's now 5 1/2. Time has flown by so fast as the kids have grown up. And with Hannah, it's just flying even faster. I miss my baby.

What a Great Surprise!

It's funny how the simple things can make you happy. Jason came strolling in the house last night about 11:00 pm exhausted from working and stopping by his friends' house Aaron to have a beer (or two, probably).

Anyways, I was so happy to see him. Of course as a digiscrapper, when he laid down on the couch and Jax, Sandy and Prince were crawling around all over him and burying him in kisses all I could think about was getting pictures. Didn't get any though because I knew it would only validate more to Jason what a scrap-aholic I am!

He spent the night and left to go back to work this morning. It was nice to be able to get up this morning and say, "Have a nice day Son".
