I wanted to let you all know about a great forum that I am part of. It is not very big, but is starting to grow. We have alot of fun on there. there are different scrapbooking, card making and photo challenges that you can join in every month. They also have some fun swaps for you to join in on as well. So if you are like me and are always looking for another challenge come on by and join the group. Just tell them i sent you over. the link is

So happy this month is almost over!

This has been such a long month here. My family has been sick all month. I am so sorry that I was not able to keep up to date with everything on here. As sick as i was I was still able to take Christina horseback riding with her GS troop. she had so much fun. Lexi got to go with us but could not ride. She did however get the chance to help care for a horse there.



I am going to keep the challenge the same this week. With hope that someone will enter. I will have a new one up next week. I will also have a drawing later today to pick the name for this months Rak winner. Good luck to all the ladies who entered the challenges. I hope to see more of you join in for the month of April.

I got to do a little scrapping.

I got to have a little fun this weekend. I only got 3 LO's done because i was back and forth with Lexi. The poor thing. I hope she feels better soon. So here are the Lo's I got done. The first one is for the challenge on here and the other two are for challenges on scrapbooking groups / forums that I am on.

For the challenge on here. I have no journaling onit because its for a book for my mom. I am leaving it blank there for her to fill in. Its from her vacation. The first one is for the challenge on here.

It is such a nice day today!

I got to go for a little walk with my older DD. feels so good to walk without that big winter jacket on. Wish i could have stayed out longer but my little one is sick so we had to come in. She wants mommy. Before we came in I took this picture and wanted to share it with all of you. Hard to think that just 2 weeks ago we got a foot of snow.

I got to scrap a little last night.

I had the chance to make a little shadow box for a friend who just had a baby. I don't have a picture of her yet. but you can see where there is some tape in the spot where the picture is going to go. This was so much Fun to make. I used some items from a challenge that i entered on a scrapbooking group i am on. They send you 5 items and everyone in the group gets the same 5 items and then you have to make something with them. It can be a LO, Card or as i did an altered item. You can add anything you want to it. all that is said is that you have to use the items that were sent to you. It is going to be fun to see what everyone comes up with. I just might have to give this a try on here next month. you will have to tell me what you all think and if i get enough feedback on it i might give it a try with all of you. Anyway here is my shadow box i made.

been to long

wow it has been almost a month sense I was last on here. What a bad month I had here. Seems like my 2 little ones we sick non - stop. I can not wait for spring to come and to be able to open up windows both home and at school to air everything out. I did not have a chance to get any scrapping done. how sad is that! I am going to check my mail and see if i missed any emails before i pick a name for Feb. Challenge. I do hope to get some scrapping done this month. WISH ME LUCK! I Have my older Daughters Birthday on Monday so we are getting ready for her party. it should be lots of fun. She is having an American Idol party. we have a karaoke machine and trophies, blow up guitars and will be making tambourines. there is going to be 20 girls here so wish me luck. ok so I have a list of Challenges that i want to get done this month. Some cards and some LO. I would love to hear from all of you about the challenges that you will be working on this month.
