Ice Cream, Any Flavour [anytime]

It's always nice to see a layout published in a magazine ! Especially mine! hahah!!! It doesn't happen very often, but when it does it's exciting!


This is published in the Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine ( Summer 2009 ) issue.
Page 31 in case you are searching for it!


This picture was taken the summer of 2007 ... it's Oreo ice cream which is one of my favorites!
The products i used for the layout are from Scenic Route.

thanks for letting me share!

Ding, Ding. Weigh In!

It's Thursday so you know what that means!!!

Yes, I went in for weigh in today, and I am happy to announce that I am .2 from 10 pounds! Yes, I have lost another 3.2 pounds this week... i dont know how .. but i did ! I am down for a total of 9.8pounds. My 5% goal is 12 pounds so i am almost there! I am pretty happy about that actually. I have a lot more to go but this certainly is a step in the right direction.


Onto Scrappy Stuff...
I finished the June Kit for Creative Scrappers .. It's a sweet sheer album from Maya Road and some wonderful papers from Making Memories. This was a fun little mini album and great for those black and white pics..


I also started a new layout for our reveal on Sunday... so I DO have a bit of mojo happening! WOOPEEE!!!! ...

It's cloudy again today with a possiblity of rain... one positive about this crappy weather... the plants don't need watering! haa!!!

that's it for today... talk soon!

I've been Slack!

yes, I've been slack lately... no scrapbook pages, and a mini album waiting to be finished!
I have no urge to scrapbook, i have a pile of new photos waiting for me .. a few new papers but no mojo. It's summertime or alteast the calendar indicates it's close to summer time. The weather has been horrible on the weekends here in New Brunswick with only 8degrees celcius today .. that's freezing! That's like Winter!!! It's nice and warm during the work week but come Sundays it's freezing!!! I actually had a bit of heat on in the house today ... so not really feeling the mojo or urge to scrapbook.

What do you do when you are stuck in a rutt? or what do you do when you just don't feel like scrappin?! Share some ideas with me... cause i really need some!!!
and please don't tell me sketches ... i have one on my table waiting for me for next week's CS reveal!

I watched this movie last night.. it was cute. So many things were soooo true about this movie .. about how " he's Just Not That into you! " a great chick flick..




have a great week!

Ding, Ding. Weigh In!

Another Week, Another Thursday and Another pound!
Yes, I went for Weigh In Today and I've lost another 1.2 pounds! WOOT WOOT!
What a week, I really didn't feel like i lost. I was away all weekend visiting family and really didn't eat enough fruit and veggies... i actually had a hot dog on Friday with no bread... and Sat, I had some of mom's yummy lazagna which was amazing.. i think I would of had 2 pieces on a regular day but yes, I had my " normal " piece with salad.

So, I am pretty happy about my 6.6 pounds lost so far in 4 weeks. Only 50 more to go!
Actually I am 1/2 way to my first goal of 5% weight loss.. so let's get a WOOT WOOT!!! hahah!!!

tks for all your support and reading about my weekly weigh ins! It's encouraging and keeps me on track. If i could just get going and walk before supper or on my lunch hour - i would be a step ahead of the game. .... soon .... real soon..

Happy Anniversary!

My parents are celebrating their anniversary today ... 38 years!
I consider them a wonderful example of what a marriage is about and thank them for
giving me a great example of what love is about!

Happy Anniversary!

A Quick Visit!

Yes, I went up North to visit my family this past weekend. What a quick visit that was.
So tough sometimes to visit 2 households and want to spend time with both my sister and kids as well as Mom and Dad. It was enjoyable seeing the girls, they are growing up so fast. I didn't even have time to snap a few pics of them... we were just so busy going all over the place.

Saturday we enjoyed a trip to a little butterfly farm. These butterflies were HUGE. One of them was probably about 8 inches long. I did take a couple of pics ...



here is Dad with a butterfly on his head..


Here is one of mom and Megan...

Megan enjoyed watching the butterflies move all over the room... Marissa on the other hand enjoyed the first 3 minutes and then realized they could land on her and wanted out!
Yes, i always nag my sister about the pony tails she does to her kids... poor Megan, I am sure at the age of 13 she will ask her mom why ... why 2 side ponies mom??!! hahah!!!

The room was so warm and caused my lens to fog up! I took about 10 pics and that was about it for the weekend... maybe next time I'll be able to take more.
