Happy Memorial Day

Today in the US it is Memorial Day. It is a day of remembrance of those who have died. Today I'd like to say a special Thank You to all our Service Men, young and old, who have fought bravely for our country and selflessly given their lives. Thank You, Thank You Thank You

What I've been Doing~

I have been such a lack luster blogger and scrapper lately. I've been a "blooger" { a blogging booger}. It seems like it is just one thing after the next. Wends my DS had the flu and was puking all morning! Poor little guy. He just wanted to lay on me and sleep. I though I dodged the bullet, but I wasn't so fortunate. Friday I got the flu. Yuck! I haven't had the flu like that for ages. The gut wrenching, tear out my stomach, just want to die feeling. Not fun. Luckily I got a prescription from my Doc the takes away the nausea and helps me sleep. SO that helped... A little. Anyway, I am feeling better and have some recent scrap LO's to show you. I finally got around to scrapping my Easter pics!

And ME! I had these pictures forever and couldn't wait to get this kit done so I could scrap them. That is my little boy reading Sesame Street books that I used to read as a kid. How fun is that?

Anybody There?

Hello? Anybody remember me -tink tink tink- {that's me tapping the dusty computer screen, LOL} I have been MIA lately haven't I? I have been in a little funk lately. Last week I had a little cold and it pretty much wiped me out. I was so tired. I slept in, took naps when Brock did, and went to bed by 9. It was a weird week or two. I didn't want to do anything digitally related. I was so tired. BUT I am back now! With belly pictures. I am 31 {almost 32} weeks along now and really feeling it. I am at the stage where she is either pressing on my sciatic {can you say OUCH} or playing drums on my bladder. And let me tell you, when I was pregnant with my son I never once got up in the middle of the night. Not once. I am way to stubborn to sacrifice precious sleep to get up and go. Well that time has come again. Last night I woke up and had to go, BAD. Of course I just rolled over, but wow. My bladder was in actual pain. I double thought the idea of getting out of bed.... but didn't. Lets just say this morning I could barely walk to the bathroom! LOL I am way stubborn, I know. I just love my sleep! Anywho, here is what we are looking like. I told my husband to keep my cankles out of the shot, no body wants to see those!On to other news, De and Manda have a very cute kit out this week! If you have bath pictures you need this kit! I just love these colors and the bright elements. You can find this kit at DD or DSS

And I have a sneek Peek for you. This is the kit coming out next week. If you have kids who love books and love to read, this is going to be the kit for you! See you later!

Fresh Baked, literally!!!

I've got a new kit out for you today, and it smells so yummy! The perfect kit to scrap all your kitchen adventures!

Aren't they fun? And here is a full preview! It's on sale this week at DSS or GS! I also want to add that these 2 stores are running smoothly. My heart goes out to all the stores out there having server issues! What a pain! Don't miss out on these savings! I really wanted to scrap a picture with this kit, and even made multiple batches of cookie trying to enlist DS help, but it never worked out! Some day, someday!

I'll see you lovelies later, it's a beautiful day outside and I am going to take full advantage of it!

It's a Marvelous Day....

In scrapland that is. It's rain where I am at! In fact I got a bike trailer for mother's day and DS and I were out on a little ride and got rained out! Good thing the trailer has a rain guard. I however was not so lucky. But it was ok, it felt good to get out and get my heart rate up. That hasn't happened in a while!

I have a few fun things to show you today. First of all, it's a new month, which means new challenges. Here is a challenge LO I did for the pop culture challenge at Gingerscraps. The song for the challenge was Bob Marley, Little Bird. I love that song so I had to participate. Kit is metal man by mITSYBELLE and is available at DSS

Next, De of Flowerscraps has an ADORABLE new kit out, called Choo Choo. This kit is perfect for me because DS is CRAZY about trains and thomas and all things CHOO CHOO. Check it out HERE
Here is my LO. My DS is a crazy sleeper. Here he is with every train he owns in bed with him.

I also have a hybrid freebie in the works! Yay! I just have to get the tut all written up and then you will get it! I have a feeling you will like it, hopefully, it took me like 10 tries to get the lid to fit on right! LOL Have a great day!
