HAPPY FRIDAY!

HEY yall! FIRST THANK YOU ALL SOOOO MUCH for the prayers for Royce Mcglohon that works with John. He was involved in a VERY SERIOUS accident earlier in the week and IS VERY fortunate to be alive. Your continued prayers will be so appreciated. He is having surgery TODAY to repair the c-5 and c-6 vertebrae in his neck. THey have seen no paralysis and Say he should be back up walking and working in around a month! SO many prayers were answered there. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for your prayers for he and his family. THey all spend so much time in their vehicles working the way they do and it is so scary. People are so distracted now a days with cell phones etc. SO PLEASE be careful and pay extra attention AND SLOW DOWN! Please remember Royce and his family today as he goes through this surgery and also as he endures his recovery.
THe photos are unbelievable. So amazing he is alive.

Vacation Bible School starts next week at our church so please keep that in your thoughts and prayers as well.

I took my last big dose of the shingle medication (WHEHEHWWW pause for cheers and applause) I feel soooo much better. I just have to wait out the time now so I can be around pregnant people and kids under 2 and older people. I have to be off this med for 2 weeks and shingle free 10 days. That kinda knocks out VBS for us but, AT LEAST I can GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE SOME!!! Going stir crazy here!

We have our SPONSOR UPLOAD TOMORROW at TREASURES TO SCRAP. LOTS OF GORGEOUS creations using AROUND THE BLOCK products. We got SOOOOO MANY COOL THINGS to try out and play with. IM LOVING their products. IF YOU DONT have their paper tagger and little label maker, YOU ARE MISSING OUT. THIS IS THE COOLEST THING! THEIR inkers that have the sanders on the opposite ends are also A FAVORITE around here. I want MORE OF THEM!! SO be sure and check that out tomorrow. I will also Post what I did with them On here. SO check back! ALSO the DESIGN TEAM has SCRAPJACKED the site since the owner is out of town. I hear that a few are running wild with red sharpies. PUTTING moustaches on avatars and having way too much fun. THEY also marked down sooo much stuff in the store and are giving discounts right and left. SO ughmm might better hurry before Tracy gets back hahaha!

Well That is all for now. Miss Bella is ready to Play so we are gonna get to it. Hope you have a great Friday :)

OMGOSH YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS!!

SANTA DEFINITLY CAME TO MY HOUSE TODAY!!! THe mail man came and I got this package and I was pretty clueless wtheck is this. John said DON'T OPEN IT TILL I GET HOME cuz I have to get something. Im thinking GET something???? oook. IT has TTS address on it so Im like hmmmm I didnt order anything. BUt I know something sneaky has been going on cuz John had been Talking to Tracy. ANd Robin has been dancing around I know something you dont know. SO Im like OK the gig is up. SO JOhn was on his way home makes me WAIT!!! meanie. HE gets home and says OK YOU can open it. I told him I THOUGHT you had to get something he said I DO... HE goes and gets MY CAMERA. IM like UGHHHHHH NOOOOOOOO I LOOK HORRIBLE what are you doing HELLOOO unwashed hair no shower yet eww go awayyy HE said I HAVE TO.... well ughmm Ok..
SO I open the box heart pounding cuz the box has fragile all over it Im thinking it is too small to be Bella and I didnt hear any little girl giggling. so still mystery to me..... I open it and there is a PRECIOUS CARD that smells all good and some towels. Im like TOWELS? OK SO I reluctantly READ the card first cuz Yall know me and figure Id get to the good stuff but I read it and she says I had this just laying around here and figured you and bella would enjoy it more. SO IM thinking WHAT... AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE LIGHT BULB COMES ON. TRACY GOT SOMETHING NEW RECENTLY. THE NEW 12 x12 CRICUIT. SOOOOO GUESS WHAT I GOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Towels.

NO IM KIDDING IM KIDDING HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
NO she gave ME HER CRICUIT SHE HAD BEFORE!!!! OMG CAN YOU BELIEVEEE THAT!! I AM BLOWN AWAYYYYYYY! IM so happy and SO PROUD and I was crying and laughing and then I wanted to beat her cuz that is just tooo much. SHe is so funny THe photos was she wanted to see me open it. I wont show you all cuz UGHHHH yall woudl be scared. BUT IM SOOO EXCITED! THANK YOU SO MUCH TRACY you are just one of my truest bestest buds and I just love you to pieces MEAN IT.

SHe was cryin this morning she wanted her mommy and daddy. so... they are comin tongiht. which is fine by me cuz I just figured we woudlnt see her for another month cuz THEY WOULDNT EVEN MENTION coming home!! SO LOTS of good news today.. so ughmm I gotta go ... I got stuff to play with stuff to clean fore they get here BYEE!!!!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!

HAPPY 4th OF JULY!!! I hope your Holiday is Great and you remember the reason for it as well :)
WE are just hanging out doing the same thing. I am getting LOTS of rest and getting caught up scrapping. SOMe cleaning done that needed to be done. I hope to get Bella's closet organized and her room cleaned good as well ass the carpets cleaned today. Don't really see all that happning but it was fun to think about



IM beginning to wonder if My child is coming home... .Our family back home is at the family reunion today. I hope the weather holds out for them. I wasn't able to go yet. Riding 3 hours one way with shingles... NOT FUN! Also John had to work yesterday and Tomorrow. WE had bad storms yesterday that took the roof off the Wal mart here near us. Well a section of roof. They called it some kind of micro burst or soemthing... They picked every Redneck in Mobile I think to put on The Weather Channel and on Cnn. BUT WE ARE ALL OK so don't worry lol. My phone rang off the hook yesterday with family worrying and friends back home. IT was like 6 or so miles from here not the one we ussually go to that is right by us. I DO Pray everyone was ok. They said there were not but a few serious injuries. I pray they are all ok...

I DO THINK Bella is having fun. DOnt you think so? Does she look the LEAST bit homesick in ANY OF THESE PHOTOS???? I didn't see it. hahahaha I have tried not to call her alot so she doesn't give them a hard time but when we do she is preoccupied and busy having fun so IM GLAD she isn't sad. PRETTY EVIDENT in those pictures HOW SAD she is huh? I think John and I Miss her LOTS MORE than she does us. John comes by me every now and then and says mamamamamama mammamamamamaa mommy, mom HEY MAAAAAMAAA!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH LET ME IN! Mama get me so and so Mama I want to play with EVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! This way I don't miss the NOISE huh?
JUST so I don't get quite as missin her sick hahaha! I know she is having a GREAT time at AUnt Liz's playing with the big boys. SHe loves the trampoline and swimming in the pool so we are letting her have fun as long as possible. IM HOPING by next week I can get out some and drive again. This weekend IM gonna TRY and venture out. BUT IF YOU HAVE ever driven IN Mobile... YOu will understand the importanct of making sure you can see well. I think we have the worse drivers here. BUt we are also a HUGE tourist town during the summer with being close to the beach and on the main road to the on the way to florida. SO I want to make sure I CAN SEE and am NOT DIZZY. HA!
We hopefully can be part of the world again. IM getting better and stronger every day so I HOPE soon I will finally shake this shingle crapp. Our VBS starts not this coming week but the next week. SO I Know she is looking forward to that.

Be sure and stop by Treasures and CHECK out the NEWSLETTER. WE have a great sponsor this month and ALOT OF fun coming up. SO be sure and say hello and JOIN IN THE JULY CONTEST! HOpe you have a Happy 4th of July and be sure to Thank our military guys and gals and THANK THEM for what they do TO KEEP US SAFE!

WHHEW a toot and blog challenge

TOdays BLog challenge by Dawn is to List an accomplishment we are proud of.

WEll. I have a new one that is out. I just got named the Design Team Co ordinator for Treasures To Scrap. IM so excited! Tracy and Wendi are so busy working for the site and for us getting sponsors and cool products they don't get a chance to breathe sometimes. SO I am going to take some of the stress off of them and be the OFFiCIAL question answerer. Kinda a go between. HElp out where needed and help the design team have what they need to get their projects done. I am also going to be working hard to bring in sponsors and fun things for us to do.

I think this is a big accomplishment with all I have had going on in my life here lately. I have been very dedicated to the site and to Tracy and Wendi. SO it is a big honor for me. I am so excited. WE want this site to be a place you can kick back have fun and scrap and get mega inspiration. They have some of the most generous sponsors and are a blast to work with. Tracy and Wendi are all about their DT and their customers which is so impessive to me. I am forever grateful to Di for telling me about this place. It has been hard being stuck in the house and sick all the time. So this is my place to get in touch with the outside world and forget about it for a while. A great way to focus on scrappin and creating these albums for my daughter.

IM finally getting better I can see progress and IM SO happy. I dont have a spot in front of my eye today and my head isnt swimming THANK YOU LORD!!
Thank you for all of your prayers and warm thoughts!
DONT FORGET we have a new contest starting at Treasures for UNDISCOVERED TALENT.

WHEHEW we made it past to the next round of SCRAPBOOKING IDOL at SCRAPBOOK LIFESTYLE. Some friends and I (HEY BECKY, HEY LESLIE) entered this contest and it is getting harder and harder. I want to thank you all for voting for me I SOOO APPRECIATE IT! Got a few weeks left and IM SOOOO excited! Here is the page I did for the last round for any of you that didn't see.That is my nephew Adam and His girlfriend (in the center photo) and then some other buds of his from senior year. The photos are PERFECT for this line of paper and I will finish his album using the rest of it I got. Aren't they the cutest ever?
That is the Love Elsie line called ROXIE I used on this page. I had a great time coloring it in with my Sakura pens. Really made it stand out.

THe next round is gonna be a little harder. We have to use ribbon and we cant let it just lay across the page and we cant tie it in a bow. Soooo, we have to come up with some creative ways to put it on the layout. THIS is gonna be fun.

We had alot of fun this weekend at TREASURES TO SCRAP's birthday celebration crop. .
We had a few make and takes and they were SOOOOO much fun. I did the Deck of Me That I got from Annette's blog. She is just the cutest ever GO SEE HER BLOG and tell her HI! She does the cutest work.
She had been doing this aleady and had kept telling me about it. SO I FINALLY jumped on the band wagon. Each week we will update with a new page for it. SOOO MUCH FUN. IF YOU would like to participate. I will tell you how this week. We are starting a thread with it at Treasures and going to do it as a group. SO much fun!! Here is what we have done so far so If you want to join in GO ahead. BE SURE to post at treasures in the Gallery sow e can see what you have done.


Tracy did the CUTEST make and take on sunday called the WONDER BREAD BOOK. SHe had us all confused wondering what the heck she was getting us into when she told us we needed a slice of bread for the class. You can imagine the questions that arose from that. BUT this is the CUTEST little book and it was SOOOO much fun to make. IM not finished really with mine. I have a few more quotes I want to put in there and some photos. I also wanted to add some more embellishments. I was sooo tired though so I just stopped at that point. I will go back and add more later. If you would like to make one she has the instruction up at Treasures. Was such a fun class. If you decide to make it let us see what you come up with. I changed mine up some and did it as a quote book instead of the birthday calendar. some others made theirs different things as well. VERY CUTE. Take a look through the gallery you can see the different things we made. My best bud Robin, did a class on making beads out of paper. IT WAS SOOO CUTE. I haven't made mine yet I think I will wait till my girly girl BElla gets back home to do that. SHE WILL LOVE THIS.

I am missing my little bug so much. I am enjoying the quiet though maybe I can get well finally from these stupid shingles and get where I CAN SEE! (and hear) and be part of the world again. I know she is having so much fun with the family back home. I have talked to them every day hearing of her adventures. SHe is so funny. Can't wait to get some snuggles and smooches. I know they are all eating her up since they dont get to see her that often. THey have to get their Bella fix.
Well that is all for me tonight. IM going to head out and get this rest I am supposed to be doing and put these freaky drops in my eyes so maybe I CAN SEE in the daylight again. see ya tomorrow :)

A small Toot...

OK not really a big deal to some but.. My page I just did of Bella "seriously 4" was picked up by the manufacturer's website. It is published in Basic Greys Gallery. whehew. SO a small little toot.

I taught a little make and take class at Treasures To scrap online tonight. IT was fun. Thank you Annette for letting me use your sample and do this. IT is a lot of fun we will be doing a card to add to it every week. Here is what I did. It is not too late if you would like to join in. I put a tutorial up at Treasures to Scrap in the forums.

Return policy?

SO ughmm DO KIDS come with a return policy? IM tryin to find our receipt cuz man I't take this one back today. (yeah you know I would lose my mind in a day ok maybe 2 days missing my kid something horribly) Im lookin everywhere tryin to find the flippin owners manual that came with this kid cuz omg she has to be malfunctioning somewhere. MOMMY NEEDS TO FIND THE BATTERYS AND TAKE THEM OUT A COUPLE HOURS!

It never fails ESPECIALLY on the days when you dont feel yourself. You are achey and tired and just feel bad. If you could sleep maybe what 8 or 9 more days IT MIGHT make it better...( I see you shaking your head yes cuz well YOU completely understand) That kids do everything in their power to just make your head split in half and an alien form come out to beat their butt. IT is like they thrive or welcome the butt kicking they need. THEy are suffering from butt whoop deprivation. I was laying down on the couch. still feel yuck. Bella is playing with her "peoples"(little people thingys with the village and the houses she has like the entire TOWN with their own royal family and she calls one "MR PESIDNET" SO she is riding Mr Pesident around in his Little people mobile pulling a little trailer with "MR Pesidents WIYUN" (his lion) I guess when Your president YOU GET TO have whatever PET YOU FEEL LIKE. and I GUESS I drifted off cuz I was starled by "AM I BOOTIFUL?" I LOOK UP and see THIS It seems she snuck off to my bedroom closet where I keep in a box my old makeup that maybe the color didnt match well or whatever but I hate to throw away.. because I can use it halloween and for other stuff OR IF in some weird way I get to be in the sun again and actually have a tan.. UGHMM yeah right. SO NOW I am Throwing it all away. SO I look up and my first thought is OH GOD SHE IS BLEEDING. THEN my next thougth OH IM FIDDNA MAKE YOU BLEED will you PLEASE quit meddling in stuff.
WHAT IS the deal man!!! SO I look around she has drawn smilys on the TV with the lipstick and the windows and its in the carpet. SO I counted to like.. A MILLION. Made her clean it up and tell me she was sorry. I sit down on the couch again Still feel like crapp on the bottom of a shoe. I think for a bit and say OK you wanna watch little bear (her favorite show) mommy needs to work for a few minutes. WILL you watch this so I can go do this right quick. YES MOMMY IM a good girl I watch little bear.
OK I should have known better. SO I walk into the kitchen. SHe has pulled out her EPI pen the practise one and is giving her baby doll shots with it. OH MY GOD. I lost it. HOW DID YOU GET THIS. I CLIMBED UP THERE. SHe gets a chair and climbs onto the counter onto the refrigerator and gets it. UGHHHHH! DID WE NOT JUST HAVEEE THIS DISCUSSION? SO I explain to her the dangers of climbing and that SHE KNOWSS not to mess with this OR ANY MEDICINE unless mommy or daddy gives it to her. she is shaking her head yes. SO I punish her. NO TV and go to your room. OK YOU WOULD THINK this would be like throwing the brrrr rabitt into the briar patch. IF I WAS A KID ID LOVEEE HER ROOM. SHe has every toy known to man (hmm thinking this wont be much longer cuz we are takign them away as she misbehaves) but no SHE starts crying and whining and acting a fool cuz she wants to come in the living room. WEll IM TRYING to clean up what she couldnt clean and get it looking like people who care live here.
IM just exasperated Just tired. Frustrated and dangit STILL DONT FEEL GOOD.
I think I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN it was gonna be a rough day when at 4 am I walk into the kitchen and look down and get the heebie jeebies scared out of me when I see this:
OK the ball is NOT THAT intimidating when its in the day light but in a barely lit room at 4 am when they have you on drugs for pain. IT LOOKS LIKE A BIG A$$ FACE EATING SPIDER! SO I almost screamed but didnt, but I did JUMP onto a chair though then realised OK.. maybe, that is just Bellas face eating BALL, and it wont get you too bad Nancy. BUT I swear it moved. THat is when I decided NO...oh Heck no.. maybe it is really a face eating puffer fish but, no, there is no water in here today.. that was last week bella flooded the kitchen.. maybe its lost looking for its home again. AHHH but no, once dayslight hit.. I confirmed the fact that IT was just the Super scary creepy looking face eating ball.
NO I didn't (thank GOD) wake up John to have him come kill it cuz I was scared it wasnt really there and he would say OK yeah its time honey and take me to that special room they are holding for me.
SO anyway... IT has been ONE OF THOSE FLIPPIN DAYS!!!

SUM SUM SUMMERTIMEEE

IT IS FLIPPINNNN HOTTTT here in Hell I mean Mobile ALabama. WE have had stormy weather on and off but we needed the rain. DID YOU KNOW that Mobile Alabama GETS MORE RAIN than ANY OTHER CITY IN THE UNITED STATES???? I didn't know that but I BELIEVE IT. THey said that on the news last night and I kicked JOhn said NUGH UGHHH! CUZ I seriously thought that it was seattle Washington. I have a friend there that every time I talk to her ITS raining. That has to be depressing. I enjoy the rain here actually. REMINDS me of my first summer job in High School. I was a life guard at this little community pool. We had sooo much fun there. A few cute boys hung out but mostly people from out of town. It was a place people would bring their RV's and come camp. I made some wonderful friends there. ANd when it rained we all went inside to the game rooom and played video games and shot pool. I remember HOW HOT it would get and some days we would pray it would rain so we could go inside.
Of course back then I could be in the sun and sport a tan. I had the body to wear the swim suit too. ahhhh BACK IN THE DAY...
SO what about you. What was your first summer job? I want to hear about it. DO you have any photos? Blog about it and link us. Be sure to put your link in the thread it we will put your name in for our weekly rak at TREASURES TO SCRAP :)

OH CRAPP its fathers day

Fathers day had always been sad for me. A day I stayed under the covers and pretended didn't exist. I was so sad cuz my daddy had been taken from me the way he had. But now, Im still sad and always will be sad about that. But He would tell me to get on over it I have a husband and a beautiful little girl. THat LOVES her daddy to pieces and TO not spoil HIS day that he EARNED because he is now a daddy. SO trying to keep that in mind today. I still had a splitting headache but TRIED and did finally bounce over it. Bella was sooo happy it was FADDERS DAY and gave her dad some COLLOSSIAL cashews (his favorite) and some whoppers ( his other favorite) we were going to make him a card but she was so busy we never did so we are going to do that tomorrow. WE did make him a carrot cake that he wanted and some rice krispie treats. I had been sick the weeks before and I guess REALITY set in ohhhh THURSDAY that it was FATHERS DAY SUNDAY and I totally freaked. I had not prepared this year. SOO much had been going on and being sick and in bed so long really takes alot out of it. I hate I was not able to go shopping and get hime a really decent gift. BUt we will. I am still working on his book from last year but the photos just arent cuttin it. I have so many projects to catch up on.
I think he is ok with it though he said he was and NOW He can totally rag me out cuz I didnt do anything special this year. I may make him a surprise fathers day of his own one day next week. Maybe when I ever return to myself.. I can get soemthing great for him. OR when my book is published he will REALLY have cause to celebrate. YEAH yall better be nice to me YOU NEVER KNOW if a character in a book may appear in here. bwahahhaahaha in my most evil laugh. I have some pretty funny material so far. But enough comical stuff happens in my life that it really could be a book just write down the facts man.

So ON that note I wanted to close this day by telling my husband HOW MUCH I LOVE HIm and what a WONDERFUL daddy he truly is. Im so grateful to him and that me and Bella both have him.
I also wanna tell my dad somewhere in heaven, Happy fathers day, I miss you today and tomorrow and always.
SMooches and good night.
