Just pure lazyness....

I have no excuse really as to why I haven't written....I got home from Idaho (after my last LONG HOT 3-1/2 hour plane ride with one cranky little girl) and I just crashed...I had to hurry and do a couple layouts for my DT position with the Nook with their AMAZING Sept Kit (Its already sold out, but Oct. promises to be just as amazing...AND just so you know...if you are interested in buying them, click HERE for a sneak peek of October and November's kit...if you sign up make sure and put my name in the referral spot!!) anyway doing those layouts kicked my rear end...not because it was hard but because I had to force them out because they needed to be done by a certain time...I really don't like forcing layouts!! It's been a few days though so I think I'm getting the itch to scrap again...we shall see how the day goes... :) The kit came with a super cute mini-album...maybe I'll work on that!! In other news I'm back!! Idaho sure was fun though....I was able to go to a few scrapbook stores out there and stock up on a bunch scrap stuff.....that was fun!! I'll be posting some pictures and layouts for you to see in a sec....I'm coming back with my "5 things I've learned today" bit....if you don't wanna read feel free to skip to the pics....otherwise, here ya go:

1- Time goes by too fast...three weeks sure sounds like a long time right?? WRONG....I couldn't believe how fast time zoomed by when i was in Idaho!! I seriously blinked and it was gone!! I'm so grateful for that time i had though...

2- Yo Gabba Gabba is a weird show....If you have kids you probably know what show I'm talking about...it's on Nick Jr....this show seriously creeps me out...and what makes it worse?? The first time I saw it, I saw the uber hot Elijah Wood doing some weird dance on there....*shudders* I've tried to block it from my memory....CREEPY!! For example - They showed this bit the other day where these carrots were crying because they wanted to join the "party" in the characters tummy....so weird...(That was random subject I know....I apologize!!)

3- I have so much scrapbooking paper....I got another box full of paper in the mail from Daisy Bucket Designs...hehe....I have so much now...anyone want to come over and play?? I'm excited to start working with their brand new paper...I should also be getting some of their new stamps and ribbons soon...I can't wait!! :)

4 - Porter is such a good brother to Lily (and he's only 4!!)...When we were in Idaho he was so kind and helpful to her....One day they were playing out and I peeked out the window and he went and sat down by her and put his arm around her and was pointing to things around the house and yard showing her what they were...how sweet is that?? I ran and grabbed my camera and got a picture, thank goodness!! I'm going to scrap it soon.... :)


5- It sure did my heart good to see so many of my extended family and friends...I love them all so much!! Thank you all for taking the time to see me and spend time with me...it truly meant so much.... :)

Anywhoo...here are the pics of my stuff I made and a couple other random pics...I did take pictures of the scrapbook sign-in book I did for my brother...I need to resize them all though...I'll show you those later...for now enjoy these pics and i'll write again soon!! :)

Here are the things using the September Kit from the Nook:




My beautiful neice Brooklyn:

Okay, where to start:
1) "There's a party in my tummy, so yummy, so yummy!!" Yep, scares me too, but Camryn goes running every day to watch this?

2) Your "home" layout is awesome. Why didn't you show me that one? I LOVE it

3) The "not so good picture" of your neice is GORGEOUS, as is she. You NEED to scrap both of these, if not, send them to me, I will

4) You & your sister DO look alike

Did I cover everything? Glad you're back...I missed you friend!!

Hi Amanda! I know exactly where you took that picture of "home". It's the old highway going to Heise. Glad you are home safe and sound. It was so good to see you and your darling kids. Can't wait to see more of your work...keep up the good work and have a great day!
