Busy

I have been so busy! I have so much to say but no time and I haven't downloaded pics and I really want to show off the fish I caught on father's day...

Hubby's grandma has been in the hospital for over a week now because she couldn't breathe because of emphysema. She is better now but has to stay in the hospital until she gets stronger again. She lives on her own but we will probably be moving into a new place with her very soon. Please pray for us that we find a home that we all can live in and not drive each other nutty, but that we can afford! I have been trying to visit her everyday in the morning and Shawn visits everyday after work. We are out of money and gas is SO expensive. She wants to give me gas money so I can still visit her. I feel horrible! Like she has to pay me to visit. That feeling sucks! Anyway, I am going to spend the night there with her tonight. She is excited. I am going to bring some games.

Thanks for listening....

Next LSS Contest and Graduation

This contest was a little harder for me because you had to use 3 or more of a different brand of product on your page. Well, for some of us scrappers, we get a new product and put it away and don't keep the packaging. That's me, I have no idea what brand half my stuff is! Like my paper???? I just take it out of the wrapper and put it in my paper keeper. It has no label on the back. So anyway, here is the finished project. It took me 3 layouts, and I finally picked this one to be "good" enough for everyone to see. I'm wondering if it even matters because I might win by default again anyway! TFL!

On another note, the boys finally graduated last night. We went to their graduation and it is so exhilarating to watch a new group of high schoolers going off into the world. They are all so full of life. I give them a year if they aren't living at home! LOL...there goes my pessimistic side again!

Congratulations Josh and Chris!!!! Now go get a job!
Proud Parents!

Happy Father's Day!

I know there are only about 3 people out there that read my blog and all 3 of them are women, but I wanted to say Happy Father's Day anyway!

A wonderful conversation between my daughter and husband yesterday:

H: Hey dad?
Dad: Yes darling?
H: Jonny asked me today if I have guitar hero and I said yes, my dad.
Dad: (speechless) then, awww!

He just picked her up and said I love you!
I made this page a couple months ago!


My hubby has played the guitar before I knew him. He plays by ear though, so last father's day I got him guitar lessons and he still hadn't used them yet. So I scheduled him an appt. for yesterday and Thursday of this week and he went yesterday all excited and the guy wasn't even there. So he is looking forward to Thursday. The guy better be there... :/
Another guitar page with daddy! TFL!

New Fish!

Pics of our fish finally!

No work! Lots of scrap time!

I am so good at scrap-lifting! Here's what I've been working on.

Altered sketch from Shanna! Thanks!


I learned this hidden message technique on Nicole's blog! Thanks! I made these cards for the girls' teachers. I make a gift basket for them to say good-bye. This was perfect.




TFL!

Scrap, Hair and Prayers!

I did this page yesterday for the Scrap Your Crap challenge. I think it turned out pretty good.

I got my hair done and I got some red low-lights and it looks fantabulous! That's not very humble...but I couldn't believe what she did to me! Yvette is great!

I bought The One Year Devotion for Kids book and we have been doing them every morning. The girls like it and it has stories that the girls can relate to. I tried to buy this specific devotion book for the girls that was for ages 6-9. But they were out. I like doing this every morning because I never make time to do my own. So we all do it together. Last night I was praying for Harley before bedtime and she said I do my prayers so good! It made me feel good because I really don't pray in front of people. Only the kids. I told her practice makes perfect. Plus, as I grow in my relationship with God, I'm not too nervous to talk to him as a friend anymore ;-).

God bless!

I love Jesus!

I am so on fire for the Lord! I love going to women retreat's and this year was by far the best one I've been on. The Lord is so good to me. I love Jesus! I will post pics and tell more later...

God Bless You!
