Birthday



I wanted to post something today to try and give an update on what's been going on. One big milestone that has happened in my life! My daughter turned DOUBLE DIGITS! She turned ten years old in January! Just saying that makes me feel old, I mean I feel like I'm in my early 20's still, I don't feel like I'm in my thirties! Did I just say 30's!!!!!!ahhhh.. maybe I'm in denial???? Even my daughter tells me, Mum you're old? I'm like what! I can still do cart wheels, I'm not old!!


For Katelyn's birthday I took her to this place that you can paint pottery. We had so much fun. We spent three hours painting and had a blast. I enjoyed it so much, Katelyn was like we could come here each month and I was like ahh.. no.. it was abit pricey but well worth the money.


I look at Katelyn and think, man kids grow up sooo fast! I remember being ten and having no cares in the world. Playing barbies and playing with friends. Katelyn is so into music, movies and forget barbie... she would laugh at me if I bought her one. I got her this cd called BYOU, it's a dance CD - well my husband had the brilliant idea that I should also dance with the video with her - man it was alot to keep up with and it was a work out.

Well, this is the end of this post dedicated to my sweet little ten year old who is growing up so fast!

Quick Layout I did this past weekend



I finally finished this page this weekend. Paper was Chatter Box, chip board is Making Memories, used Making Memories stamps. Used the Heidi Swap Paint - LOVE IT!!!

The beginning of a new BLOG! A scrapbooking BLOG!


Well, I decided to start a blog on my favorite hobby - scrapbooking! My hubby took a job in Alabama and we moved from Houston, TX. We miss "H" town so much, but Alabama isn't that bad!

I miss all my friends in Houston and this can be another way to say hey to them, especially my scrapbooking buddies - you know who you are :-)

Scrapbooking just doesn't seem as popular here as it is in Houston. There is ONLY one store! Yikes! I guess I will do alot of shopping online and depend on my BF to keep me up to date on the new stuff she sees in the stores.


Since moving to Alabama my parents just moved here so now I have my Mum here as well!! Last week was the first week they were here and I was at Mum's house every day after work for a cup of tea. We went out to eat twice at Panera Bread - my Mum is becoming a Panera Bread fanatic! Then I went to dinner with Mum and Dad on Friday night because Steven had to work late! wooo... that was alot of time with my Mummy! I enjoyed every minute of it. I found a job here, I miss the company I worked for in Houston but I guess when your time is up, it's up regardless if you are ready of not. Well, I know this is a short post but I need to get a few things done. CV
