I'mmmmm bbbaaaacccckkkkkkkk!!!!

I am sure some people have thought I dropped off the face of the earth!! I finished the month (or so) working at the daycare and now it is time to get life back to normal...or in my case semi-normal : )
I have officially started looking for a job...I will keep ya'll posted...I have loved my time at home but needing a new to me car and with the economy the way it is Jon's hours have been cut...so...I may even look for something part-time...ya just never know...
I was able to go to a scrapbooking crop this last weekend and worked on an acrylic album...they are so much fun...I will post some pics when it is done : )... I just love my crop group!! They are some of the greatest people I know...and I am not just saying that because some of ya'll read my blog...I really mean it!!! (You can check out their blogs with the blog tags on the side)
Jordan came home last night from her grandma's and I am so glad she is back...I miss her when she is gone!! Although she is probably not glad to be home...we are currently working on cleaning house!!YEA!!! Over the last month or so things have been neglected...seeing how when I would get home collapse from exhaustion, eat and go to bed!!! It is amazing how much energy babies and toddlers burn...I mean seriously!! They are all precious though and I wouldn't admit this to just anyone...but...I am already missing'em...especially the twins ; )

Twins

This week has been crazy!! I am glad it is over and a new adventure will begin on Monday... I am helping Mendy with her daycare through the month of May... which I have helped her from time to time but her regular helper is having a baby and wants to take some time off... The majority of the kids are under two and then there are the twins...I tell ya...I love these babies...babies...they just turned one in March! Here are a couple of pics I have taken of them...






The picture taking thing has slowed down since school is almost out...I am also starting to look for a J O B...yuck!! I need a new (to me) car...wish me luck...hopefully it will not be a permanent situation... I have enjoyed picking Jordan up from school and being with her more... but sometimes you have to do what you have to do!! Ya'll be praying for me to find the right fit of a job!! Anyways...hope ya'll enjoy the rest of your weekend : )

Hoss

Again...sorry for the absence...been busy helping a friend... Tooday I was trying to take it easy... I woke up and was having a hard time moving though.. I have arthritis and somedays it is pretty difficult even getting out of bed. This is one of those days...

Anyways...I have not told ya'll yet about my darling pets... We have three kitty kats and they are just precious.. well at least one of them is... We have Dot-which we rescued..she had been declawed and then put outside..she can be pretty bratty- then there's Cricket-she doen't like Dot AND then there's HOSS...the most precious baby boy I have ever seen...I know gag, right?...but...when I am having those rough days he is just so sweet... I think it is incredible that our pets KNOW when we are having a bad day...physically, emotionally, or whatever and will try and comfort us... This morning I woke up and my sweet...did I mention he weighs 20 pounds...my sweet baby boy laying on me and licking my fingers... You just have to laugh... Don't get me wrong he can be a brat too... Like this picture shows...he is on top of my kitchen cabinets.. he gets up there and then he cries for his mom to come and get him and when I am trying to help him down...this is what he does... he will just lay down and look at me like "what are you tryin to do?" ....at least he smiled for the picture ; )

Well...I hope everyone has a good day...more pictures to come...I have two sessions on Saturday ...should be fun... BYE : )

Cosmo Cricket Layout

Good Morning : )
Well...it has already been another busy morning in our house...Jordan is off to school and Jon to work...and me picking up the house...helping a friend today set up for an open house...a photo session this evening...dinner...laundry...whew!!!
But since I haven't shared any paper crafts in a little while...thought I would post this...This is a layout I did some time ago of Jordan... These were some pics I took at Mendy's barn.. I used one of the Cosmo Cricket lines of paper...Prism cardstock and the cloud edge scissors...The trick to using the edging scissors is a pencil and ruler to help you keep a straight line... So go dig in your old tools and break out some edging scissors and play... : ) Have a great day

My Every Intention

I guess everyone has noticed that I have been out of pocket again and it was originally my intention to post everyday...I guess we all go through spots of mass histeria and are running around just trying to keep up... This has definitely been me here lately. Fortunately...most of my running has been fun stuff...like taking pictures...
I took some pictures this last Friday evening with a family to get some pics of the kiddos... They were both so cute and we had such a good time... I am not posting their names but you will see they are both so stinking cute...

See I told you : )... They were sitting there so stiff and then I asked the sister..."Do you love your little brother?" and this is what we got...just precious... : )
Well...I had better get back to the mayhem...Enjoy your day

On the Go : )

I have been on the go and just taking a minute to stop and collect my thoughts. What had started out being a favor for a friend...has turned into an unexpected adventure. In my previous posts I showed ya'll a couple of the senior pictures I had taken... and now I have taken another set and have two more sessions scheduled....This is a picture from last Sundays session : ) We were downtown and walked all over...it was alot of fun : )

March Kit Club Layout

Good Morning : )

Well...I thought I would show you my creation from our LSS Kit Club...I like going to these classes because you usually learn something new...and they can help you get out of your comfort zone... I would never use foam on my pages before ...BUT...with a little INK...not bad...(the balloons are foam)...Sandra did an excellent job on this layout!! ...Thanks for teaching : )

I have Bunko tonight and am responsible for a main dish...so I had better go get busy!! Plus...have housework to do...hope everyone has a great day : )
