My Photo

Yes.....it's really me!

Well, hello there!

Good gracious!  I can't keep my blog up to save my life----just so much going on still!!   But, I'm about to make a commitment to keep it up.  I just want to re-structure it a bit differently!  I want it to have more of my photo albums for family and friends, a little of what's going on with my photography, and of course...any shout outs for the digi design part of my life!!

So, hang in there & I'll be up and running again soon!!!

In the mean while, you can check me out HERE.  I finally got a somewhat complete website up!  I'm hoping to change it a bit to suite my style and to add some custom cards, etc.   Anyway....it's fun!

Big hugs to those of you I haven't chatted with lately!!!

hello hello hello

Yep, I'm still here.  Good gracious, where do I start?  Well, the snow/ice is melting & I can see our yard now---whoo hoo!  We had some rain/snow mix yesterday that was discouraging, but can completely tell that spring is so close to being here!!

I just may change my blog up a bit------  Structure it differently as to what's going on with the family & I just a Little more.  It's been a busy 7 1/2 months getting settled here!!

OK-- have to show some photos----super cute!!  This is Meg.  She's a kindergartner in Reece's class.  He definitely has puppy love---with her!!  LOL!  Who knew my little serious guy who never new girls existed (except for his wild sister) would have a little crush in kindergarten.   Anyway--- I was entering a photo contest to win a seat at Skye Hardwick's workshop.  The assignment was to find a girl between the ages 5 - 8 & curl her hair & have her in red lipstick (Sky's signature look).  So, this is what we came up with..

She loved the chance to put that red lipstick on!!  She's such a cutie!  Reece about fell over when she was ready for photos!!  Ahh to be a kindergartner again!

And, oh my..... check out the training wheels for dirt-bikes!  Then there's Craig, the wheelie-popper!  And, sweet Macy just trying to keep herself occupied in the puddles.

Oh--- I've resigned from the very sweet Shabby Miss Jenn's design team since there's just too much going on & don't want to be a slacker for her!  But, 'Sweets,' it's been such a JOY to be on your team and work with such a talented group!  Thanks for the opportunity! Love you!!

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!!

{love shack}

Here's a page I did of my friend's brother & his fiance.  Curt & Meghan.  I took some photos of them before getting married in TX at Texas A&M.  They got married early Jan.

Curt_meghan_smj I used some new goods by SMJ called Love Shack and used her new new alphas and her trashed papers.  Fun!

I also picked up a colab. kit from ScrapArtist called Painted Love which I used for the blog banner.  AND got this super sweet kit called Everyday Love at SA as well by Two Sisters Designs who are moving to a new location---so go to Emily's blog if you want to purchase it.

Other than that??  Hmmmm.....just been so busy & have some things in the works at the moment.

I'm going to post some family photos & photos of the house projects over at the family blog.

By for now!!

{My goodness}

Well, it looks as though I completely skipped the month of January!  How did time get away from me for so long??

I decided to get rid of my birds on my banner--- they're no longer singing my joyful noise!!  LOL!  I'll just have to sing now!

Love is in the air.  I can feel it.

Be back soon.  Promise.

Slacker!

Goodness-- not keeping up very well, huh?  And, as you can see---my banner is still celebrating Halloween!  That's on my to-do list!

For those digital scrapbookers who are looking for some yummy goodness, go check out Shabby Miss Jenn Designs for her latest kit and holiday goodies!!! 

Here's my page using her latest kit called Fondest Memories:Rightsideupsidedown_web

Yep, it's my little Macy, crazy as usual!  She's in our bathtub--a 100 yr. old claw-foot tub.  Believe me, this bathroom looks best in black and white!!  There are only a select few who have seen what the floor looks like in color!!  LOL!

I hope all of you are having a happy Monday!!
