Boy Oh Boy

What a busy month...we have been moving into our new home for a little over a week now and we still have a ton of things yet to get out of the other house. Glad we are taking our time as I have been burnt out the last couple days and haven't done much unpacking. But I think I am good now as I have done several boxes this morning already. Blakes got soccer practice tonight and a game at 11 tomorrow. Need to remember it's my turn to bring snack...LOL Nothing much going on, just wish the move was over. Picking up new washer tomorrow too...YAY ME! lol

I sure do hope that I can get back to scrapping when we have everything moved over here (not nessessarily unpacked) LOL! I have missed it and even though I don't have the huge scraproom anymore I am making due with our walk in closet (big but not a room) I have to get very clever with it so all my things can fit. :D Packing and unpacking my supplies has really made me miss it and want to dip my toes...but I must wait.

Sheesh.....

I can't believe how long it's been since I have posted on here. Followers? What followers? LOL It's been just about this long since I have scrapped too. Maybe longer. A couple of things going on. We are moving....yep..AGAIN! Land lord lost this house to foreclosure...we have until June to move out. Not having much luck finding something with 3 bedrooms and if we do it's already rented. We are on a waiting list for a townhouse but there are 4 others infront of us and the chances of us getting in there by the time we have to move it doubtful in my mind. Going to look at a house when the kids get home from school and Mike gets home from work. Still in the same school district but the more we think about what they are asking the more costly it becomes and we aren't sure if we are willing to pay all that. 1. first and last months rent....2. renters insurance..no ifs ands or buts (not too costly) no pets (we have a dog, will give up if we have no choice but sad about it) they might consider to let us keep him for more money and they want us to pay for a creit check on both Mike and I...so to move in we would have to pay $2000.00 not sure about that. This will be what we dwell over this weekend after we see the house. Time is just going so quickly and we dont' want to get stuck having to live in a hotel until we find something. That would SUCK! So to any of you that will read this..PLEASE say a prayer for us. Thank you.

WOW

I can't believe how long it's been since I have posted on my Blog...first let me start with posting some pictures of Ramon and Blake on the first day of school. Ramon is now officially a high schooler...can you believe it? I can't. My baby is growing up! And Blake...she's in all day kindergarten. She's so brave and strong. The days are so long with her not here. I miss her everyday.

School Days

I can't believe school starts in a month. Both my babies are heading to new schools. Ramon is going into high school this year and Blake is starting kindergarten. {{cry}}

We went shopping last night and got Ramon and Blakes back packs. Ramon got the one he wanted but not the color and the one I wanted to get Blake was unavailable at 2 stores. (argh) So she ended up with a Tinkerbelle one. She loves it but I really wasn't wanting to get a theme one. Picked up a couple other school supplies that were on sale. Also picked up some solar lights for the yard. They only had 5 left..might have to check out some other stores to see if I can get anymore.

What I've Done

Here are the layouts I have done in the past week, it felt so good to get some scrapping time in. I feel like I haven't scrapped in ages ( well it has been a few weeks) With Lizzy and George here I have just been preoccupied with everyone else. But now that they are gone for a few weeks I am hoping to have more time to scrap. This first one is of Steve and his girlfriend on the sailboat waiting to head out on the lake to see the fireworks on the 4th of July. Then there's Ramon and Blake from January sledding across the street...gotta love having hill right across from your house. Then there's Lizzy, George, Ramon and Blake in the barn at the family reunion Saturday. Then Blake with a sparkler that Ramon found in his room. Then one of Ramon opening some of his girfts this past christmas. And the last 2 (yes it's a 2 pager...shocking I know..LOL) is from the 4th of July out on Hess Lake watching the fireworks. Thanks for looking!

A couple things

First I have to share that I was chosen as a winner for one of Bella Blvds new lines that haven't even come out yet! WOO HOO! They are gorgeous. Can't wait to get my hands on them.

Second..the crop at WeScraps was so fun...I wasn't able to get everything done but I did get a few challenges accomplished..it's been so long since I scrapped. Will post them here later!
