Lots to Share

Well now that my busy September is over I can get back to the important task of updating here LOL. I have lots of projects to share. Just got done with my CT assignments for Crop Addict. This month our Sponsor is Scenic Route. I had the entire Sonoma line to play with! Loved this line. Here is a mini album I made.






And this is from Kristin (Jeff's Cousin) 21st birthday. That is my little sis on the left.


We have a huge crop coming up next weekend at Crop Addict too! You don't want to miss that!

So lets see what else is new with me?? Well since the last time I posted Jeff and I celebrated his 35th birthday. Sorry no pics of that. My FIL took the kids for the weekend and Jeff and I got a date weekend :) We went shopping. Out to eat and to the movie. We went and saw Hancock with Will Smith. We have this old theatre that plays the older movies that are already out of the big theaters. We only have to pay $3.75 Each! Talk about a cheap date! Next week will be another busy week. I have a meeting, A Broadway series show and New Kids Concert all lined up. So don't expect much from me next week. It will take everything I got to not fall asleep at work next week LOL. Well I guess that is it for now. If you got through all that Thank you! You Rock!

A couple more projects to share and another Fashion No No

Ok first off I know I am no Heidi Klum but I like to think I have some idea of what looks nice on myself. Lately I have noticed another fashion NO NO (remember my Skinny jeans gripe). I HATE seeing women walk around in shoes that are TOO BIG! I do not want to see you walking in a pair of high heels that you have to clomp around in so that they stay on your feet! It just makes you look stupid. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE buy a pair of shoes that FIT for crying out loud! You are not 3 years old anymore playing in mommy shoes. Geez! WHew! Ok Now that I got that off my chest here are a couple more projects that I have completed in the last week or so. First off let me say I do not really like scrapping Halloween. But My kit at Mon Ame was filled with Halloween goodness this month.

LO using Making Memories and Cosmo Cricket



And a Halloween card using Cosmo scraps


Tonight we are headed to BJ's Brewery to celebrate Jeff's Bday and his Aunt's Bday. Have a great day everyone

Skinny Jeans Tip of the Day!

How about you just don't wear them unless you are built like Kate Moss! I guess not feeling well has me feeling a little testy eh? Seriously though... I really do not like this trend. Only about 1% of women can really pull this look off. And Women like me who have some hips are just $hit out of luck. Don't even get me started on GUYS wearing skinny jeans. Ick! Maybe I should just start pegging my jeans again and wearing double socks! LOL

I'm Here!!

Ok sorry about being MIA. The conference for my sorority is now over. Everything went well. But now I have a cold. Been out of work the last 2 days. I dragged my butt back in to work today. I wanted to share with you guys a fun crop this weekend.

Jamie's first day of Preschool

This girl has been dying all summer to go back to school. She was very disappointed this morning when she found out she does not have school tomorrow LOL. She couldn't wait to wear her new outfit. She proudly stated that she thought her teachers would think she looked cute in her new outfit LOL. She is such a poser. I swear I did not tell her to stand like that LOL.




Well off to a busy weekend. Jeffrey has his first soccer game tomorrow afternoon. Then I have a sorority meeting Sunday evening. Have a great weekend everyone!
