Treehouse Memories THAT SPONSOR

AT Scrap That Moment. Here are my design Team submissions: (those are bugs bunny house slippers in the box by the way)










2 posts in one day I KNOW

But this is very very important.
As you all know from my previous posts. The toddler teacher at Bella's school that we here have come to know and love has cancer ... Everywhere pretty much. IT isnt good. Her platlet count dropped under 500 and they are doing transfusions they got it up to 6000 but she is still losing alot of blood. The cancer is absorbing the chemo so it is not really working. They are going to try one more time to do a transfusion and if that doesnt work..
they are running out of things they can do. SO Im asking everyone PLEASE pray. She has a 5 almost 6 month old daughter (claudia) and her husband and her mom that love her so much. SH ehas lots of friends also and everyone is banding together tonight in prayer. I ask you to please say a prayer for her and her family. Thank you all so very much.

forgive my blog I had a gremlin...

A little 3 foot tall blonde blue eyed gremlin that deleted my blog for me. YES I was fit to be tied but rescued most of it and revised some but cannot get my slider to go back at the very top like it was so it is on the side now :( That is ok. All is forgiven although I cried for 20 minutes and threatened to send her off to Aunt Jeanne for a week or two (HAHAHA) she would love that.. that is no punishment.

I GOT some WONDERFUL NEWS ON KATHY!!!! SHe went to her new dr. THEY SAID IT IS TREATABLE!!! Her chances are still not that great but AT least there IS A TREATMENT and hope. SO thank you all for your prayers. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE continue them. She started chemotherapy yesterday and will continue to do so at providence. I told her about a friend of mine telling me about going to Texas to the cancer center but she has hope for here if she isnt seeing any improvement soon she said it may be an option. SO KEEP THOSE PRAYERS going MAN ISNT GOD WONDERFUL! SO amazing the things he can do. ALSO THANK YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH for the pages yall have been doing. ABSOLUTLY GORGEOUS pages I have gotten and some sweet cards for her as well. I now have 11 pages to take to her. (We didn't get to take them today but we will be taking them by tomorrow to the church so Mrs. Sally can take them to her this weekend) Bella has a yuck nose so we stayed in today and honestly my joints are screaming as well with the temperature drops.



Our neighbors David and Diane Carter are coming over for dinner tonight. They got a pork loin from some benefit or something and asked if we would like to eat with them so we are making the fixins and we were going there but we decided to have it here instead. Here is a SWEET SWEET photo of them with Miss Gremlin Britches... Bella . They are the sweetest people ever we just love them to pieces and Thank God he sent us to be their neighbors. Well I must go finish the gravy. Priase God and tell him ThANK YOU for Kathy's wonderful news! Please continue to pray for her and if you would like to make any pages for her or donate supplies Please feel free to post it here or shoot me and e-mail. hugs!

The pumpkin patch



Well Im still getting the hang of this scanner. It cuts the bottom of the page off, but it does get 95% of the page scanned in one scan HOW MUCH does that rock! Epson is amazing. I love this scanner. Early anniversary present from hubby.
These are just a few photos of Bella from when we went to the NICHOLS-BOYD Pumpkin Patch In Mississippi where we used to live. A REAL pumpkin patch. NOT just a church parking lot full of pumpkins. Which is really cool when you live in town, but it just isn't the same as going out into the field and picking your own pumpkin and getting to see and pet the animals that reside there. This is the patterned paper from the fall line of Flair designs and making memories chipboard letters. LOVE the Flair patterned papers. I got these from scrap that moment as part of my payment for being published in the Scrappy chick magazine for the fall issue. You will be able to see it pretty soon. I have more pages to post just not as much time as usual.

I am working hard on the pages for Kathy campaign (our friend and teacher for the toddler class at Woodridge Baptist Church learning Center that was dx with terminal cancer through out her pretty much entire body) I have gotten 7 pages ready to take up there tomorrow. Thank you all for your generous donations of supplies and or pre made pages. If you are interested in making a page just simply reply here on this blog. Thank you all so much. I am taking her your notes of encouragment as well. Your continued prayers for her and her family are deeply appreciated. She was released from the hospital (sent home with "this is all we can do for you") but has another apt. with another dr, well it was yesterday now. I should be getting an update hopefully tomorrow. She is spending as much time with her family as possible esp. that beautiful baby girl Claudia (5 months old) and her husband Jason. Please remember them in your prayers. It is a very heart wrenching situation. I know they all appreciate your ongoing prayers.

One tired, full of candy cowgirl...







Bella wasn't real sure about this trick or treat stuff. She didn't like ringing the doorbells and she didn't like the scary costumes some of the kids were wearing. THEN... she realised they were passing out candy. HIP HIP HURRRAYYY is all we kept hearing from her the rest of the night and WHEN we go to nuther house halloweenin' and what about all those other houses we didn't go too SHe bet they had candy in there too! I told her we had enough candy to last quite a while from the 7 houses we went to. (yeah come to find out if you take a cute little kid from the neighborhood in which you are trick or treating THEY PILE ON THE CANDY) and most all of them knew that Bella was allergic to nuts so had plenty of things she could have. Then we went to Uncle David and Aunt Dianes and helped pass out candy there. We had made 110 treat/tract bags and ran out. Thank goodness we still had some loose candy when the two SWEETEST cutest little minnie and mickey mouse kids came up. WE flipped off the light just as they were walking up I felt sooo bad I called to them to wait we would see what we had. They had the costumes from Disney world like what mama wanted to get Bella that I told her NO PLEASE cuz they cost wayyyyy too much for her to just wear a couple times... but omgosh they were the most adorable children ever so we sacrificed some kit kats and sent them on their way.
Bella did not complain about going to bed last night she was plum tuckered and had her fill of Pink Gum (yall know that is her absolute most favorite treat that only good BIG kids get) so she can be bribed into child slavery with pink gum.. Not to mention the BIG BOUNCY BALL dispenser at Old Navy will make them Tinkle on a toilet that they are convinced will suck their hiney right off of her body if she dared sit on it... (it has the auto flush which she is NON APPRECIATIVE of) so anyway good tips for moms there for bribing 3 year olds huh! Well she is taking a nap so I have got to fold laundry and get a few things done before she awakens and becomes herself again. Hope you had a happy Halloween and hard to believe it is almost Thanksgiving and Christmas AHHHHH! I have to find a paying job or yall will be sadly dissapointed in yall's gifts this year.. IT will be a thought counts christmas round here haha.

Fall Beauty?



THis is what I did tonight. I wanted a fall page that showed the beauty of the fall colors. I think that this captured that. Still not crazy about the white line that is around the photo it seems distracting I may take it back apart and take that off but IT ain't gonna be tonight I tell ya. Has been a long day. Bella has been "painting" she painted the paper, the table, the floor and parts of herself. SO I am off to put her in the bathtub. AHHH to be three again....

Project Kathy and a Thank you

First of all THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone that has been praying for Kathy and her family. I talked with Sally and another friend today and they are doing a blood transfusion on her to try to help build her up some.
We are going to start the Pages for Kathy project. We are making an album 12 x 12 with all about me pages and baby girl pages. THey are going to be 12 x 12 and just think girl colors. We are doing them simple so she can do journaling as she would like to on them.
IF anyone is interested in making pages or donating anything, just respond here or send an email. We need to get this done ASAP it honestly isnt looking good. Read the previous post you will see why time is not much luxury at this point. We will be giving this to her through the church and the school. As pages are done I will get them to Sally to take to her. That way she can journal on them or add the photos she wants us to add. You are welcome to put your name and address and words of encouragement on the back of the page if you would like. I have had numerous volunteers already and we thank you all. Please continue to pray for kathy, her husband Jason and her daughter Claudia (5 months old). We know God can work miracles. We truly need one for Kathy now. So please remember their family. Thank you so much

bad sad horrible news

Got really bad news.. Really need everyone to pray for this person. Her name is Kathy Paajanen. She is the toddler teacher at Bella's school. She just got dx with cancer in her breast, her spine, pelvis, liver, kidney. possibly lung, blood and throat they havnt gotten those back yet. They are pretty much saying nothing they can do... she has a 5 month old baby girl, Claudia. Her hubby is taking this horribly which I mean who wouldn't but he is just in bad shape. They are asking for everyone to pray.
ANd she is saying that if you find a lump a bump or anything to PLEASEEEEE go check it out dont wait. A couple weeks could be the difference between treatment and nothing they can do but let you try to be comfortable while you live out the remainder of your days.

Please keep them in your prayers tonight and hug your family a little tighter.

SANDYLION ROCKS


OK so I had gotten very frustrated cuz I was working on a project for legacy magazine and couldnt find the paper I needed. I had gotten it long long time ago and have no clue where. OF COURSE I needed like 4 more sheets. SO I contacted the customer service department at Sandylion to find out where I could get this paper.. thinking they had a listing for stores that may carry it. The lady was SOOOOOOOOO nice and SOOOO helpful she said ya know, That will take alot of time..so I will just send you some. I was floored. JUST send me some? I was like OK SURE. (Thinking she was just fluffing me and then gonna forget) well YESTERDAY I got THIS In the mail. I am soo excited! ALSO got the coolest letter from them too. SO HOW MUCH DOES THAT ROCK. THANK YOU SANDYLION and Shari McTamney in their Customer Service department. In the day and age when Customer Service is NON existence THEY SO ROCKED on this one! I was totally shocked and impressed! THANK YOU SO MUCH. YALL ROCK!

Forwarding on the challenge..


My friend Annette forwarded me a blog entry from another friend of hers that did a challenge on ~~>
This front page of the Parade. IF YOU HAD ONE DAY TO SPEND WITH SOMEONE WHO'S GONE... Who would it Be? What would you do?

Wow perfect timing Annette. I Definitly would choose my daddy. NO doubt without hesitation. I miss him more than words will ever say. There is no word to describe how much I miss him. I went home last Saturday and took Bella to the Pumpkin Patch. We went down "daddys Road" I call it. The road that he was killed on and later renamed the BObby McCrary Memorial drive. I tried to explain to Bella that this was her Pawpaw's road. She asked the normal 3 year old questions.. "Did He build it?' no I replied, "he didn't build it. "Then why is it Pawpaw's road?' "Becaus,e he was such a special man that they named it after him." "Oh ... CAN I have some more pink gum?"
We were traveling down that road (you have to so you can get to the pumpkin patch) and taking photos. I wanted a better photo of his sign for the book I am working on of his life. I havent gotten too far it hurts my soul. I did work on the page last night for my That Design Team sponsor pages for next months sponsor on Scrap that Moment. It is hard but IT is going to be a beautiful dedication page. I want to add happy pages too though so BElla will KNOW the man we loved so much. Not just that he died.

How do you explain something like that to a baby? I know he knows her. But the first thing I would do is tell him everything about her and John. Tell him How I met John and How he saved me and takes such care of me. How he loved me back to reality and made me wanna get on with life somewhat and that IT Was OK TO LIVE. I will tell him how I always saw him ,well see him, all over Bella. Her mannerisms and things she says, and I know he is whispering just what for her to do to get on my nerves and pay me back haha.
I wouldTell him that the Atlanta Braves won the world series right after he died and I Know he had to have put in a good word for them cuz they sucked so bad the year before. Tell him how much mama misses him and we all miss him. How I lay awake at night wondering what it would be like if he were here, and how life just isn't the same without him here and how life went so crazy after he was taken from us. Tell him I know he didn't want to go but I know he had to. Yes, tell him the bastard that did it is in jail and not to fear I will not rest, he will serve out his ENTIRE sentence and he better pray he never sees the light of day from anywhere but behind bars if it is my last breathe in me. SO HELP ME!
I do think about what it would be like if he was still here.. Would I live in Alabama? Probably not.. he wouldnt let me take that baby to ALabama, he would have had me arrested or road blocks set up and an amber alert in full force before I hit the Rankin county line. (ha ha) But also living there wouldn't be so hard for me if he was still there. Would I have gotten so sick? I know he would spoil Bella totally rotten and take her riding in his old truck. He would let her play with his glasses, Teach her inappropriate songs like he taught me, How to belch the Abc's and let her change the channel on the tv with the remote. (Something we were never allowed to do.) I know he would sneak her a never ending supply of pink gum and grin as she smacked it, enjoying every chew of the flavor it holds. He would get pure delight out of her cowboy boots and how sassy she is in them. He would giggle at her ways and her sayings. She would be his buddy no doubt. We would walk along that road they named after him and Id ask him what he would change about his time he spent here. He always asked me that when something happened good or bad.. what would you change. I'd hug him tight and tell him just how much I love him and wish he was here and How much I miss him and He would grin and say HEY it aint that bad, it could be worse. Then he would say "Dang your a good lookin kid, cuz you look like me." wink at me along with his mischievious grin he always had,


and probably toss me a lifetime supply of pink gum.

What about you? Who would you like to see? What would you Say? What would Yall do?

Photos from the patch




We are still recouping at the Jones res. can't go and do anything it seems anymore that one of us doesn't get sick. Here are the photos I promised if BLOGGER will cooperate :)
Bella loved this tiny pumpkin. She wanted to ALTER it she said hahahaaha My daughter what can I say. She looked everywhere for her perfect pumpkin to take home with her. She loved looking at the Green ones too. Actually we did take home a green one as well.
THey had lots to do there from a old fashioned rope swing, a corn box kinda like a sand box.. and a hay maze. SHE had LOTS of fun! (check out those cowboy boots isn't she stylin') SHe thinks she is something in them boots now. WE have our Tuesday Night Girls Chat AT Scrap that Moment tonight. You should come check it out. We always have lots of fun. Hope everyone back home is safe from the storms last night. IT got really bad here too at one time we had 4 tornadoes and the sirens kept going off all night. SCARY! BUt everyone is safe and sound. Just didn't get much sleep last night haha.

When did I get so flippin' old?

JOhn Bella and I rode to Mississippi yesterday to go to The Nichols/Boyd Pumpkin Patch (a really awesome place to go if you have never been) I really feel old today. We stopped and picked up John's mom and my cousin Jan and her grand daughter Brelynn met us there. We had a great time took lots of pictures of the kids. Went on the Hay ride tour where we saw buffalo and Zedonks (cross between a donkey and a zebra) and the regular cows and goats and chickens pot bellied pigs and stuff. We all with about 40 other people piled into a flat bed with sides trailor full of hay and rode around through pasture after pasture looking at animals and pumpkins and christmas trees. IT was a VERY BUMPY RIDE.
Bella had a fabulous time "papping" (petting) the animals and FEABEN (feeding) the baby chicks. She got a little confused on the pumpkins they looked like balls to her and if it wasnt the perfect one would toss it back down. We had to explain THESE THINGS are not balls and they will break and their seeds and eww stuff will fly out to not do that... well go figure... anyway after going to the pumpkin patch I went to the Local scrapbook store on that side of town scrappin DIvas and saw Miss Wendy and Rowan (hi guys) havent seen either of them in forever. SHe had some awesome stuff there. but I was rushed so didnt get to really shop. It was good to see them though. We stopped by My mom's (grandma's) and then went to Dave and Darlenes (it was Dave's birthday) and then made the drive back home. YES we came BACK HOME same day... DID I MENTION 3 hours one way? TODAY I feel like a train wreck or like a train wreck survivor. It would be easier to say what parts didnt hurt like maybe eyelashes... but im not so sure of that.
I look at the photos of Jan (wanna age her up and wrinkle her) she looks awesome. I look like IM the grandma of everyone even John.. NOT Jan. She looks like she walked off an album cover. I wanna sit on her or something hahah Love ya Jan. IT was so good seeing them since we normally only get to see them once a year. WE NEED to all get to gether more often.
HIghway 49 and a camry were not made for each other. ITs not that the car didnt have a smooth ride IT really did but man I can sure feel every crack in the pavement today. OK nuff fussing about feeble feeling bones. WE did have a wonderful time. We got to see old friends we havent seen in a long time, see Buffallo is sandhill Mississippi (who knew) and a zedonk... Bella still hasnt gotten over that and the walking goat. she thought that was too cool. She loved the tiny pumpkins and wanted to take them all home. she called them the cute pumpkins. They didnt have the old truck and the other decorations that they ussually have. We dont know if because of the crowds and kids climbing on them if that is why they werent there or what BUT I miss the cute photos we ussually get there. Bella loved getting the stamp on her hand of the three pumpkins and THE lady that drove our school bus when I was in first grade was working in the store.. HOW COOL IS THAT! John pointed out to me also we ussually go late in the evening and no one is ussually there but we went at high time on saturday when the tours were going on is why it was so crowded. But we still had SOOOO MUCH FUN! I am sure she will remember it forever and if she doesnt I have 192 photos to remind her.

You know your a good cook when....

Your hubby ends up in the ER cuz the roast you cooked WAS SOOOOOOO GOOOD (how good was it Nancy?) SOOO GOOOD that he didn't wanna even chew it cuz it would ruin the flavor before swallowing... (HAHAHAHa sorry honey I LOVE YOU ) I AM SOOO HAPPY you are ok. You scared the fire out of me! BUt now it is a little funny since Your ok an all. ::wink::

YEs the drama never ceases to end at the Jones residence. I cooked a roast and man it was good. John has an issue though when he eats meats like roast or steak that sometimes they get stuck in his throat. (esp. when it is a huge piece, he didnt cut up or bother to chew, just shoves in his mouth) WELL, HE got a big ol honkin piece put it in his mouth IT was hot (hmm maybe that SMOKE ROLLIN OFF IT WOULD BE A CLUE) so he puts this big ol chunk in his mouth does the "OH MAN ITS HOT" dance and swallows ....then ugh ohh.. it wont go down ... wont go up ... ugh oh.. well he waits thinking it will work it's way down for .... 5 hours. (yes I raised utter cain at him) before letting me after I told his sister on him and his mama and threatened to drag him behind my car with yarn, ribbons and some adhesive tied in a pretty bow around his neck (red line no doubt) to the ER, where they would NOT ONLY have to take the meat out of his throat, but my hands from around the outside of it as well IF HE DIDNT GET IN THE CAR AND GO TO THE ER SO THEY COULD SAVE HIS LIFE.... NOPE he wasnt going. "ILL BE FINE I just need to get it out" (oh, well, why didnt you say so)... its been 5 hours.. not minutes.. HOURS ... KNOCK KNOCK... IT AINT COMIN UP without medical attention. FINALLY after talking to his sister(again) and her calling his mother... He agreed RELUCTANTLY to go.
SO we take Bella to her last year teacher's (Mrs Tracey GOD I LOVE HER) house drop her off. (did I mention my kid had those big ol sparkly horns the size of christmas trees? I think that was a prior post somewhere) then off to ER.
WEll when you get a big ol man still in his nice work clothes come in grabbing his chest and heaving to breathe THEY WISK YOU OFF. SO we splain what the deal is. THey gave him finally (it didnt take too long maybe 30 minutes in the waiting room... IM telling you IF YOU NEED TO go to er for anything GRAB YOUR CHEST they rush you bac,k man I dont care, broke arm.. broke leg, the flu GRAB YOUR CHEST) so they give him these 2 muscle relaxers and man he was like HEEElllooooo dahlin' after that. Mr Im chillin where is the party till he starts the upchuck. BUTconveinently right before they were gonna wheel him down to put the handy dandy pitch fork tube thingy down his throat and spear the roast out.. Up it came.. (Thank you lord) HE felt much better immediatly.

Guess what My dear sweet charming loving husbands words were.. "HEY HUN COME HERE... You need me to get that for you for the scrapbook page I KNOW you will do on this?"
MEN .... GOTTA LOVE EM! He also asked if this was gonna be on my blog tomorrow.... hehehe What do you think?! HEY it could have been worse. I could share the story of Bella asking you about your BIG GIRL PANTIES :) Love you honey SO HAPPY you are feeling better.
