Thanks A Latte!

Hi Everyone!

Today is my day to post for the oh so fun Action Wobble Team! I just love these things, if you couldn't tell :o) This card went out to my mom, she loves it when I make her cards with wobbles and especially coffee themed :o)

Here is my card...



You can purchase these really fun action wobbles in a couple of different places. One is over at The Scrapbooking Queen's Royal Castle Shoppe and the other is over at the World of Wobble website. Now head on over and pick some up so you can also get your "wobble" on, hee hee :o)

Hugs!

Still no space :o(

Well, I did what my friend Tracy had suggested and it only let me schedule four more posts with photos and said I was again out of space. After a long time of comtimplating wether I wanted to purchase more or not, the not won! I went back through my blog and deleted all of my posts from 2010 because who is really going to go back that far on my blog? Then I went to my picasa web album, this is where blogger stores all of your photos from your posts. I deleted all of the photos from the posts that I had deleted and it freed up a lot of space. They only give you 1GB so if you are like me and don't want to pay for space and you don't care about how far back your blog goes, this is what I did. I am still going to go through eventually and delete posts that I don't think are very important. After all, I have all of the photos in my computer and on cd's and I really don't think that someone is going to go looking two years back :o)

I want to thank you Tracy for trying to help but, unfortunately it didn't work for too long. I am still going to resize all of my future photos for posts just to keep it going as long as I can :o)

Have a great weekend everyone :o)

Hugs!

It's beginning to look like Christmas!

Hello every one!

Todays post is all about our tree. The last few years the boys have done all of the decorating because I was not in to it :o( Some of you know why last year was tough but, I have greatly overcome and this year is fantastic! I asked Jeremy to put our tree up the Saturday after Thanksgiving and he did! I am really excited about Christmas this year so I wanted to share our tree with you. I have some more house decorating to do but this is a great start :o)





THANK YOU SO MUCH TRACY!

My blog photos are working again because of a little tip from a friend over at Tracy's Treasures. Please click on her name as it is a link to the post she did for having the same problem. Very helpful! As soon as I tried this it worked perfectly, thank you thank you thank you!!!!

Have a great rest of the day everyone!

Hugs!

Using Scraps Batch #11

Hello Hello!

I am back with another batch of scraps :o) Last night I was in the mood to make some cuts for my Christmas cards I am working on. What goes better with a wobble than a super cute Cricut Cut, right? The first cartridge I pulled out was Simply Charmed, one of my top favorites! For me these never seem to go quick since I can't seem to just cut and glue. Nooooo.... I have to ink and doodle all over! I love it though. I think these five cuts took about an hour and a half, crazy! They sure are cute and I can't wait to put them in "action" :o)

Here is a look...

Hope you all are having a fantastic Sunday :o)

Hugs!

Happy Birthday Ty!

TSQ Feature Designer Post HERE


Another One!

I have another post today for one of my sons :o) Ty is turning 12 years old at 2:25 this afternoon! He came in to this world weighing only 4 lb 7 oz and was a whole 18 in long :o) His story is a little different as he had to fight to be here. Some pregnancy complications caused him to stop growing at a certain point but, that hasn't stopped him from being a feisty one! He is still a little on the small side and a wonderful kid! Here he is :o)

From this...

To this...

He definitely won his battle to get here and struggles from time to time, as he always will, but you would never know that he wasn't just a normal regular kid. And yes, those are earrings :o) I pierced his ears at age 6 when he asked me to and they look great, I think anyway!

Happy Birthday Ty Guy!
Love, mom!

Hugs!

Happy Birthday Dallas!

Hello!

Today's post is dedicated to my son Dallas :o) Those of you who have "known" me for a while know that I have four sons. For those of you who think Caleb is an only child, wrong :o) He has three older brothers and let me tell you how rowdy my house gets, hee hee! 

Anyway...15 years ago this afternoon, at 12:26 to be exact, brought me a new bundle of joy! It wasn't easy, 12 hours of labor, an epidural that wore off and a little situation of almost being too big, Dallas made his entrance in to this world :o) 7 lb  2 1/2 oz and 19 1/2 in long. Where has the time gone?

From this...

To this...

Happy Birthday Boo!!!!

Love, Mom

Hugs!

Password books

Hi there!

So my mom asked me if I could make her a password book for her websites and internet use :o) Of course I will! I remembered seeing Robin at Injoy Stampin make some a while ago. I found the video I was looking for and you can see it here. I have made several and plan on making more as my mom wants to give some to her friends :o) Mine are not the same size as Robin's but they are super cute! She gave me the general idea and I took it from there :o) If you would like to see a tutorial on these just let me know! I used some chipboard, pattern paper, pages printed off my computer and my bind-it-all :o)

Here they are...

I made this one for my mom to match the notebook I previously made for her

These are the inside pages

My sister's

And the boys wanted one after seeing them... This is for Dallas

What Caleb is going to do with this I don't know but he wanted one anyway :o)

Ty's... he loves skating!

Have a fabulous day!

Hugs!
