ALMOST FIVE

Have you seen these papers from GRAPHIC 45? I am in love. They were in my kit at scrapbook obsessions this month. I had the best time making this layout with them. They are double sided and yeah I KNOW I KNOW I scream and shout about double sided paper but seriously these papers rock. IF you dont like one side flip it over YOu are sure to like that one. one side is very vintagy the other not so much. just SO PERFECT.
YES IM still on this turning 5 thing I just cannot believe it. SHe is still planning her Birthday party and so happy to be turning 5 as John and I sit here looking at each other thinking if we ignore it will it go away? UGHHH.. no time doesnt work that way but it was worth a shot huh?

Doesn't this sound like fun!!! We had a fun Easter around here. The Easter bunny must have tripped on the toys BElla left out because he dumped his eggs all over the living room. hahahahaa.



She had a great time dyeing Easter eggs. Even though we just use them for potatoe salad... she still loves to dye them I mean come on don't you remember how fun it was dyeing Easter eggs when you were a kid!? I always loved it. Yes we hide the plastic ones now but I have to have the nostalgia of dyeing real eggs still. Every kid and (kid at heart) has to do this. IT's just not Easter without it ya know.

She had a good Easter. she poked us awake before 7 and I went ahead and took my meds so I wouldnt forget. HUGE MISTAKE. I have to take them at hte same time every day NOT EARLY not late. I knew not late but was thinking a little early wouldnt matter. BUT, it was alot more early than I realised...Oh well. John thinks maybe I didnt eat enough with it. Either way I was dog sick.
I laid in the dark most of the day. I got up a little bit but I tried to eat and off we went again. so TOday is first day I have been able to keep anything down and that was some crackers.
Im gonna attempt supper tonight.
I have an appt with my general pract, on Thursday so will ask him about that.

Here are some photos for ya, We didnt get to go to the church service for Easter I'm still not allowed out yet. But we did watch some on tv that were gorgeous. We had to kinda be careful around Bella She didnt understand alot of it and we tried explaining some of it to her. I will get her teacher to help me with that for 4 year olds I know it is really difficult to understand that jesus died for us.
I want her to know the real reason of the holidays not just Easter bunny.. Know what I mean?

I got my package I had ordered today from TTS omgosh IF you dont have one of the big bites let me tell you this thing is COOL as can be. It looks impressive too!
I got crackle paints and stickles and some more cosmo and that Bazzill bling birthstone paper is sooo vibrant I LOVE the ones that are Bellas school colors.

My mom was here this weekend. We all had a good time. .
Hope you all had a very happy Easter and remember the true meaning behind it.
I also would love to see your entrys in the contest. LETS FLOOD THE GALLERY WITH THEM AND MAKE LINDSAY AND JON WORK HAHAHAHA. IM sure he will love me for that one! hehe
