My health can go from good to not good at all so fast with this crapp that it gets scary sometimes. BUT Thank GOD we are still here and cruisin along. I love my friends and family and thank you all soooo much for all your prayers. HOPEFULLY SOOON I can get out in the world again.

A HAPPY SCRAPPY WEEKEND

SO how was your weekend? DId you get alot scrapped? There was soooooooo much going on this weekend with National Scrapbook Day. LOTS of fun for lots of scrappers. Here are a couple pages I did Between the carpet flood cleaning (don't even ask) and the chats, and the contests at Treasures.This was the BLING IT ON challenge.

THis was do a page about hair and I incorporated the pastel colors challenge in with that. The page and journaling is about when BElla cut her own hair and the arrows are pointing to the CHUNK she cut. Miss Melissa made her promise to never ever cut her own hair again.
This one was to alter monograms. This photo is of Bella and of her cousin Brelynn. They are so cute!! They had so much fun this day at the Pumpkin Patch. We dont get to see them as often as we want to :( The other challenge I incorporated was stitching and ribbons. (I used doodlebug rub on stitches)



ANd this one was for the Brad Challenge. SO I DID get a few pages done whehew. NOT as many as I wanted of course but on well.
I hope you got to have a scrappy weekend as well.



Bella is playing over at the neighbors so WE have not drawn for the Prize yet. WE WILL Announce it tomorrow in my next entry WHO WON THE KIDS CHALLENGE WHEHEW. ALL THE PAGES LOOK AWESOME. IM GIVING YOU ONE MORE DAY iF ANY MORE KIDS WANT TO PARTICIPATE.

Happy Nat'l Scrapbook Day and say hello to:

THe first thing she said when she woke up today was that "she had PWOJECTS to do and she was CWAPPIN wiff miss Twacy all the day" She had soooo much fun doing the kid challenges and kid scrapping today. SHE INSISTED she wear this dress to scrap. SHE LOVESSS this dress. SO HAPPY NATIONAL SCRAPBOOK DAY. YOU WOULD THINK it is a huge holiday around here.

Bella - nese?

We are doing the Photo a day challenge at TREASURE TO SCRAP all the month of May. This is in honor of National Photography month. WHO KNEW! SO in honor of Thursday here is my photo. THis is a daily routine thing at the Jones's. Most of you that know us, know that Bella has her own little language she came up with. She can come up with the craziest things to call stuff like the benadryl little travel thing it is a tube and it comes out like liquid to go on bites and stings.. she calls it "butt makeup" Now how it got labeled that I have no clue. Maybe it reminded her of make up and she had a skeeter bite on her butt or something I have no clue but when she says "I need the butt - make up" we know just what she is referring to.
We have a refiderfader at our house too. Which is perfectly ok with me. But, the one that just tickles me to no end is "honey chocate milk"
YEs there is a story to go along with this.
WE make her some chocolate milk (ovaltine) every morning with breakfast. Sometimes if the mood strikes.. we use strawberry nesquick.. we call it... PINK HONEY CHOCATE MILK. IT all started about a year ago. John was making her a cup and said "Honey, do you want some chocolate milk?" and she said "yes" so she stood there watching him make it. she asks him "when ewe put da honey in" John just looks at her like she is on fire cuz he has no clue what she is talking about. Well she gets all bent out of shape cuz he forgot the honey. SO that started the "Honey Chocate Milk" we put 2 scoops of regular ovaltine chocolate and one MAGIC spoon of HONEY CHOCLATE (another scoop of ovaltine) and mix it with her milk. Well that did the trick she hushed. SO That is what it has been called in the Jones home from that day forward.
It also tastes better if it is in the pink dora cup. WHY.. cuz IT JUST DOES is what she told me as if THE THOUGHT of putting it in any OTHER cup would be breaking some scientific law of nature. I Think she even rolled her eyes. YES I am looking SOOOO forward to the teen years.

ON another note.... AFTER you have had your Honey chocolate milk fix. HEAD on OVer to Treasures TO Scrap. We have HUGE festivities going on getting ready for National scrap book day. WE have challenges and prizes and contests. LOTS OF PRIZES TO BE GIVEN AWAY. SO be sure and stop in and say HI. You wont regret it!

GOOD NEWS/BAD NEWS

SO what do you want first the good news or the bad news????
HUH? well if you want the good news first... keep readin. IF YOU want the bad news first.. skip down to where it says *bad news.
K?

THE GOOD NEWS:

MY blog is up to 52 in the top scrapbook blogs YIPPPEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! That is totally all because of you guys who read my blog. Thanks SO MUCH!
THis blog originated because we moved to ALabama with the baby (as if we would leave her behind ya know) and all my family is there and JOhns family is well.. ALL OVER THE GLOBE! SO it just made it easier for family to check here for new photos of the baby and see what all was going on instead of sending out 5 milliion emails. SO it has kinda grown from there.

SO .. THe bad news..
WHich IM sure alot of you will be going HUH? and what.. but it is kinda a big deal well NOT Really but I worked hard.

I was in a scrap contest at scrapstreet. I got all the way to the finals man SOOO CLOSE. BUT didnt win the contest. :( I know I know. BUT IT is ok cuz some AMAZING people won and they rock outloud so it is totally ok. No worries. I LOVE the pages I made and had sooo much fun, was greatly challenged. BUT a little good out of it. NOW I can post my layouts I did.
SO here they are for you to see :) I also want to thank all my pals for cheering me on and supporting me and helping critique my work so I could better it. YALL ARE SUPERSTARS!!

so here we go

This layout was based on the EBAY commercial WHAT IS YOUR "IT" I chose Bella and how she smiles at me as My it. I used My minds eye papers and lots of buttons and embellies. was sooo much fun!


This one was a numbers challenge. We had to use 3 different numbers on a layout. I used SEI WINNIES WALLS for my paper choices (MY FAVORITE PAPER EVER)


THis one was more of a freestyle challenge. MY FAVORITE style of scrapping :)
I LOVEd these photos of BElla sooo much. I got the idea for the butterflys from my pal CAROLE. SHe had done some on an older page I saw a while back and I remembered them and how perfect it would be. My tiny dancer and the little butterflys look like they are fluttering with her around her. Carole is such an inspiration if you havent seen her blog BY ALL MEANS RUN GO LOOK SHE IS AMAZING!!! I used more My minds eye products on thsi as well. I LOVE the colors and the fun themes of their papers they have out. I use the stew out of them!

and my last page.



THIS Page was SOOOOOOOO much fun! I LOVE these photos of Bella bug. she is such a sassy thing. I had to write an article as well which KIM JOHNSON gave me a QUICK OVER VIEW on how to digi scrap ROFL THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR PATIENCE KIM. AND I also got my Friend Leslie to critique me and give me some feed back on my page. SHE Is a superstar! (dont even blush you KNOW YOU ARE GIRL)
I used paper Studios pp for this and all kinds of fun bling!

ZING!!!! NO WAY!

BELLA: MOMMY!!!!
ME: YES BELLA?
BElla: giggling: KNOCK KNOCK
ME: who is there?
BElla runs off giggling...

OK.. MUST work with her on joke delivery...
Few minutes later.
Bella: MOMMY!
me: YES BELLA?
BElla: KNOCK KNOCK
Me: WHO IS THERE?
silence......
hmmmmm is she becoming A.D,D. like her mother?

A few minutes later

BELLA: KNOCK KNOCK MOMMY.
me: OK bella you need to finish your joke now..
BElla: JUST SAY WHO IS DAYER MOMMY!!!! :: noted frustration::
me: who is dayer mommy?
Bella: UGHHHHH! DAT IS NOT HOW IT GOES MOMMY
YOU SAY WHO IS DAYER and THEN I SAY NOTHING
me: WHAT? why do you say nothing.
Bella: SCMACKS HER FOREHEAD IN FRUSTRATION. CAWSE MOMMY! DARES NOBODY DAYER!!! ::giggling skips away::

NOTE TO SELF........ TODAY IS THE BEGINNING... My daughter has totally zinged me. I remember this day long time ago. With my father. Telling me jokes. Telling me NOW you have to be quick. people will lose interest. you have to think quick now and pop em with the punch line followed by "the stare" that will leave them in stitches every time.....
MY protege' has arrived... it is the beginning of a BEAUTIFUL sarcastic relationship.
BE AFRAID WORLD. BE AFRAID.

I wonder.. should I worry about myself though since I got zinged by my 4 year old?
Nah she is just advanced in her thinking THAT IS TOTALLY IT!
That is ok the day is not over. I SHALL REIGN SUPREME!

WE call this PROGRESS

I got all my paints put up and organized on my stamp shelves.I Reworked my stamps up there today.






AND I got more of my chipboard put away and sorted. Also some embellies put away in the little drawers. WHEHEW WE are making progress people!!

WHAT ARE YOU GETTING DONE TODAY, Get your organizing and cleaning your scrap room done? TELL ME!

I GOT TAGGED!

Adriann tagged me so here goes (HEHE)

7 little known facts about me.. hmmm whats not to know. SINCE Everyone loves to talk about me (eyeroll) so I will tell ya a few more things to talk about hahahahaa!

1) I hate doing scrap contests. I rarely enter those things. They seem like popularity contests to me and people get sooooo competitive and jealous. People end up with hurt feelings so I hate doing them. It just looks like a recipe for disaster in my opinion. BUT.. having said that, rofl My friend Di talked me into entering one rofl and IM in the finals AHHHHH! not sure how that happened but NOW IM a nervous wreck. ANOTHER reason I dont enter them. Im a worry wort.

2) I was in a car wreck at 6 months old (no I wasn't driving ha so dont even ask)2 drunk drivers drag racing ran us off the road. I have a scar on my nose in the shape of a fish hook. This very sweet lady that walked most every where she went named maycilla found me, I went through the windshield of the car. my face all bloody. My brother was in the back seat and was telling them who we were and who our parents and grandparents were because my mother was unconcious. She was blind after the wreck for some time. Maycilla took care of me till they got us to the hospital. Every time after that when we would see Mrs Maycilla out walking to the store or whatever we always took her where she needed to go. I feel like she was our angel sent to us that day to help us.

3) I am very claustrophobic. Not severely like an elevator doesnt bother me bad, but if it gets stuck I would probably die just from the panic. I hate to shut the door in the bathroom we had back home it was the tiny closet inside the bigger bathroom. It was so small. Freaks me out.

4) This is the first time I lived anywhere outside of Mississippi in my life. I didnt want to move I hated it cried and cried and cried. I stayed in mississippi for a year to make sure John liked the job here and make sure he was gonna stay before I moved here.(besides that I was sick and going through treatments and it was a long drive from Alabama back to Jackson every week for that) But, I stayed for over a year with a new baby. That is how bad I didnt want to go. ALmost risked my marriage because I didnt want to move so bad. ALl of our family was back there to help me with the baby while he was working all the time his family as well. I knew there was no one in Alabama and being sick and a new mother it would be horrible. I was being so selfish thinking that. BUT I FINALLY saw this was a good opportunity (quit listening to what everyone else was telling me to do) for him and moved. I do love mobile. IT is beautiful here and I LOVE my neighbors. I love our church and our home we have here. I can't imagine us being anywhere else now. I have gotten so spoiled living in town. I had never been able to order a pizza and have it delivered before!! We literally are 4 miles from every place we need for shopping and stuff. I really like our church even though physically I was not been able to gofor a long time, the people there embrace us and visit us and really care. I had never been to a church that had a band! (orchestra) I was so impressed haha!

5) I graduated with only 21 people in my class back home! VERY small school we had a football team basketball and track but no band or anything. Maybe 300 in our total school

6) I went to the same school the entire time I was in school. All 12 years.

7) WE are severe Home bodies. We kinda have to be though with me and my crapp I have. We dont go anywhere. We dont travel. we dont go on vacation. well I say we dont we go back home to mississippi to visit family at the holidays sometimes... WE never have been big travelers. Since I can't be in the sun and I get tired very easy and end up getting sick every time we have ever tried to go do anything like that so it wasnt worth it. WE just spend our vactaions relaxing or doing other things. we go for mini trips for weekends and stuff but a BIG TRIP is not an often thing. WE had been planning DISNEY for last year then I got bad sick again. Now we planned for this year and we dont think it will happen then either. SO maybe when bella gets a little older. I know being in the sun so much and all that walking it will not be good. SO when she gets a little bigger and we can think of an easier way we are gonna go. Right now I think she would be terrified of the characters anyway. SHe freaked out over the poky little puppy at the library so I could just see us going there.... maybe next year..


Ok so there are my 7 things. SOOOO I Have to tag 7 people by the rules. SO IF YOUR READING THIS.... GO to it . tell me your 7 things!

MY sweet hubby rocks OUTLOUD

and you know what comes next huh!! WHEHEW OH FIYAAAHHH!
He was so sweet to me this week. He has been having to go across the bay alot working the dealerships there. SO he has to pass right by Hobby Lobby and that one is SOOOO MUCH more rockin that this one that is 3 miles from my house sad to say. SO I needed some bling for the page I was working on. Yall know Im all about some bling. Well while he was there he saw the big nice sales going on and he Was so sweet to me! HE got me another set of the big honkin stamps so I can do the words on my stripes in my scrap room (that is gonna be soo cool) so now I have 2 sets of them since they were half off. HE got me a BUNCH of bling (that i have almost used up yep but wait till you see this OMG awesome page I am working on!) I have both sets of the new cosmo cricuit, some more ric rak and I got the new moxxie papers that are gonna be here today! SO much fun so GUESS what IM gonna be doing this weekend wheheww!
GONNA GET MY SCRAP ON!
I DO HAVE TO give a big ol shout out to my bud Susan too. SHe rocks in all kinda ways. SHe picked me up the stamps everyone has been raving about that are a buck a pack (the clear stamp sets) 11 sets!!! IM SO EXCITED just think of all the fun that will be! I had asked our Micheals about them and they looked at me like i had 7 eyes in my head. They had no clue what I was talking about. I guess I can take them and show them. THANK YOU SO MUCH SUSAN! YOU are a rockstar!!

Thursdays Happnin'

Also Treasures To Scrap's Kit club is who sponsored the Design team this month. Here is the other pages I made with the kits I received.


I think you had already seen a couple of these.. but here they all are.


I had a great time with these kits. I also made a card box.. you can see it over in the archived blog entrys, with the left over scraps.


I have had a great time with the contest and gotten alot of pages scrapped.


I love this photo of BElla. I can add the warmness to it or cool it off to black and white and it is gorgeous with most any papers. I scrap most of my photos in Triplicate so my mom and mother in law get a page for their album as well. SO If you see alot of the pages that have the same photo on them... You know why haha.

One of our challenges was to scraplift our team partner. My Team mate is Teri Lynn. She is the DIgi side of our team. SHE ROCKS I must tell you. I had so much fun lifting her gallery. Here are a couple of the ones I did.







Great fun I must tell you! Be sure to go see Teri Lynn's Gallery and leave her some lovin! GO CHECK OUT HER BLOG AS WELL tell her I said HI!!
HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A WONDERFUL MID WEEK DAY!

OH I ALMOST FORGOT! MY 7 THINGS! I was tagged a while back by 2 lovely other bloggers haha SO here they are my 7 things I despise:

1. Negativity
2. Children that are disrespectful
3. DENTISTS
4. People who act all Snitty trying to stir up trouble
5. Dirty feet
6. Dirty floors
7. for someone to rake off the mayonaise back into the jar and get bread crumbs all in it (or any other thing you spread on with a knife EWWWWW)

SO SEEE I TOLD YOU I WOULD EVENTUALLY DO IT.. wheewwww.

I have to agree!

DO I EVEN NEEEED TO SAY ANYTHING ELSE? COuld this shirt be ANY MORE PERFECT EXCEPT if it were to say OUTLOUD under the ROCKS and then ON the back said AND ON FIYAAAHHH!!! THEN THAT MY FRIENDS WOULD BE A TRUE T SHIRT TO HANG IN THE COOL SHIRT HALL OF FAME.
BUT DONT SHE LOOK JUST FABULOUS WEARING IT? and FOUR.. DID I MENTION MY BABY IS 4 ...F O U R!!! ::sigh::: SO far.. Four has not been any better than three. It has actually been a little LOUDER THAN THREE. But that was all. WE have another big day today. Playgroup, and REST I PRAY.. This weekend has me still worn out.. then BElla drug me and Diane through Toys R us aka "hell" in search of SOMETHING COOOL for her to spend her new gift card and DOLLARS on. This kid doesnt ask for a dollar NOOooo SHE ASKS for "twenty dollars" not from just relatives FROM ANY RANDOM PERSON walking past.. ITS MY BIRTHDAY GIVE ME 20.00... TOO bad that hasnt worked yet.
ITS a good strategy and has only worked on the grandparents a few other relatives so far. THe cuteness has LONG worn off for her father and I. I had to say though.. My senseble child DID let us purchase cute clothes today.. she is getting VERY particular on what she likes (SHE HAS GREAT TASTE AHEMM LOOK UP AT THAT SHIRT SHE IS WEARING!) we held up a many an outfit that she said nada wasnt happnin' IM happy that I passed the inspection. OF COURSE ANYTHING that resembles a tutu or a cinderella dress IS IN THE TOP 10 for clothing worn by Bella.

Yeah I KNOW I STILL havent done my 7 things yall challenged me with... It will happen I have to think though... so maybe tomorrow when I have slept. haha
IT will happen..eventually!
AND YES KIM I want you to know at toys r us BElla ran for the barbie jeeps saying I WANT TO BUY THIS WITH MY 20.00! I had to say she has great taste... she went for the expensive one. I dunno if MObile is ready for her to be ... MO- BILE yet! I have hard enough time catching her on 2 legs not sure about 4 wheels..

MY baby aint a baby no more!

MY little baby girl is not a baby anymore she is the whopping 4 years old! AHHHHH! SHe is such a little girl now. SHe had so much fun this weekend with Eva at her litlte party and then today we went to toys r us shopping and spent her gift cards she got. SHe HAD A BLAST. SHe was throwing stuff in the buggy like we were millionaires. I was taking it out as fast as she put it in hahaha. SHe did load up on barbie stuff though! SHe got alot of art things and some clothes CUTE CUTE clothes.


DONT YOU JUST LOOVE THE PRINCE ON THE CAKE... "I will swim through the Sea of Green frosting KNEE deep even to proclaim my love for cinderella" (The look on the princess cinderellas face isnt too happy either isnt it.. You would think they would be happier.. OH well haha! I thought that was so funny... must be the medication they have me on .. sorry)




She had SOOO MUCH FUN!!!
OFf to do a photo shoot I will be back with some fun photos tomorrowwww hehehe!

IT LIVES!

WEnt back to the dr today he said he thinks IM GONNA MAKE IT haha. HEY we were a little concerned there for a bit. With all the stuff we have going on right now, he decided to keep me on this medication for a while to clear the shingles out of my system. I also have to watch my blood pressure it is going up and down.
Nothing that can't hopefully be controlled easily. Thank you all SO MUCH for your prayers and concerns they are so appreciated. I have so much to catch up on!

This weekend is my baby girl's 4th Birthday. HOW DID THAT HAPPEN! WHO TOOK THE BRICK OFF HER HEAD! SHe is not allowed to grow up! I just cannot believe she is 4. Seems like she should still be this tiny wriggly thing that just yells all the time.. oh wait she still does that she is just not tiny anymore.
She is so excited about her party. SHe is especially excited about her cake and pinata. SHe is going to have so much fun. Happy day before your birthday sweet pea. WE love you so much! You have been a blessing these last 4 years and we cannot wait to watch you grow up.


ALSO! THIS WEEKEND IS THE ONLINE CROP AT TREASURES TO SCRAP
IT is going to be SO MUCH FUN! LOTS Of prizes to give away and lots of pages to be scrapped. We are focusing on SPRING CLEANING. We have all kinds of fun things planned so BE SURE AND CHECK IT OUT!

I got some more good news. I have 4 more pages going in creating keepsakes magazine (hobby lobby's premiere magazine) I have so enjoyed designing with them this year, and am excited to be on for another year.
I managed to stay in the contest at scrapstreet. I don't even remember making my project for my class. THey have had me on so much crazy medication the last few weeks but I didnt want to forfeit, Definitly dont want to let my partners down. SO FAR so good still in the run off. SO go cheer for me and Di.

whine complain and aaaaaahhhh ::COUGH::

THey shoot animals that are in such misery why not humans? I guess I should be happy they don't.

OK SO I haven't updated my blog. I KNOW I KNOW you ALL have tagged me IM NOT ignoring you.. OK maybe I am a little BUT, I have a good reason.
Shingles.
Yall know I was sick with it all through Easter, Felt like crapp didn't care the world was revolving, actually I really didn't, since they put me on some major meds. BUT then as Lupus would have it. It turned into Pneumonia.

Yeah really sucks. My mom had to come back down and help cuz I had not been able to do alot. yeah I KNOW I have SOOOOOO much I am supposed to be doing and needs to get done but well My lungs say different. DID I MENTION BElla IS TURNING 4 IN ANOTHER WEEK (say it aint sooooo please my baby cannot be grouwing up this fast!!!)

I DID manage to get a project done for the competition I am in. IM not sure how good it is. I HOPE IF I MAKE IT THROUGH this round I can redeem myself next week. BUT, I have a feelin I will be sittin in the green room rofl. Ahhh we shall see.
I remain hopeful OR is that the breathing treatments ... whichever its all good.

I hope I havn't let my partner in the Treasures TO Scrap contest down to much. TERI LYNN YOU ARE A ROCK STAR! I did get my template page done.. I think it sucks. YALL KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO SCRAP with Kleenex shoved up your nose and coughing like you have a huge addiction to cigarettes for all of your life. so anyway.. enough whining. IM getting off the nail so to speak (too bad everyone can't join me in that) and going back to bed.
I will catch up on the tags, eeeehhh maybe tomorrow. TOday AInt lookin too much like it hehe. sooo Maybe tomorrow.

12 Hour Scrapbook Crop for ChemoMoms!!!
Our first official fundraiser is here! REGISTER NOW HERE

Saturday May 12, 2007
12 Hour Scrapbook Crop for ChemoMoms
10 am to 10 pm
Fee $40 - includes tshirt, lunch and registration
Lots of door prizes, raffles and drawings, snacks and drinks and FUN!

One of the main goals of ChemoMoms is to remember the parents/grandparents of kids who are sick. We want to do special things for the moms/dads. The kids are given all kinds of toys and attention, but the parents are always left out. We want to be able to send them to dinner with their spouse, hair styling, massages, and remembering their birthdays.

To do this, we need to raise MONEY!! LOL

I hope you can get some friends together and support our local moms while having fun and winning goodies! You don't have to have anything to scrapbook - just come and have fun visiting! We will have lots of tools available and possibly some scrapbook products for sale in case you forget something. There will also be a digital camera and photo printer available too!

If you know someone who might be able to donate items either for this fundraiser to be raffled OR if they want to donate something to give to the parents, such as gift cards to restaurants, gas stations, long distance calling cards, we would LOVE to hear from you!
