First Splash

It was only fair that D took the first splash in the pool.  He is the one who wrote the big check, sure wanted him to feel as if he was getting his money worth! :) hahaha

Yes, I used pink on this layout!  Yes, it's about my husband! Nope, I don't see a thing wrong with it!  Honestly, it's just what I seemed to be feeling at the moment, what was working for me, and I didn't even give it a second thought. 

Lots and lots of things going on in the house.  Change can be a good thing, right? 

Ozzy doesn't think so.  We've had a guest dog for almost 2 weeks now.  Seems Miss Nikki has discovered that sleeping under the bed is the best.  Since that is Ozzy's spot, and he is a creature of habit, he's not thrilled with sharing his comfy place.  When Nikki goes down under, Ozzy starts pacing. He's on the bed, he's off the bed, then back on the bed, he sighs, rather loudly I might add, with his displeasure.  I'm sure next week I will find this funny, but for now I'm just sleep deprived!

Welcome Home

  I got up a little early this morning, thanks to Sir Ozzy not being able to be still. I'm telling you, he is just like a 4 year old!  And huge, I really need to post some pictures of him.  Yorkies are supposed to be small, and he was supposed to be a tiny one like all of his brothers and sisters, tiny is not a word used to describe him.  It's not just that he is big, he is stout!  I mean thick kind of stout.  I swear him flopping on the bed when you are asleep is like someone walking in and throwing a tree trunk right smack in the middle of it! But, I love him so!!  Anyway, Oz and I got up a little earlier than normal, got some coffee while he went outside to wake the neighbors, then uploaded a new layout.

I really enjoyed creating this one.  It all just seemed to flow so easily.  Plus, and here is the best part, I was able to use items from a kit I've had for, oh, hmmmm, I don't know... couple of years maybe! Shameful I know!  What's shameful about it is that I didn't use more! 

I'm late I'm late, for a very important date!

Ok, I'm really not late, just behind!  So very very behind.  I've got layouts created and ready to post, and pictures to share, but I've no time.  When I do have time I'm just to flippin tired lazy to even log in on the computer, plus it's baseball season still!!  And the pool has been so nice during another really hot summer.  And by golly I'm busy!  There be some needy people in my circle right now!

You should see my dining room table.  There is no eating going on there, instead the cricut has set up home there and being used almost nightly, cutting out 491 little pieces of animals for Jessica's classroom.  I've even had to change my mat and blade!  That baby is getting a workout!

I went to the Lakehouse for a long weekend a few weeks ago and created the layout below.  I had been wanting to start my album of the house.  I want to document when we first bought it, moved in, and some of the changes I we make in it.  I thought I better get started on it before David puts it up for sale!

My plan is to use crumb cake as my background page throughout the whole album.  I've never done that before, so it will be something new for me.  This is my cover page, no journaling.  I enlarged my picture to a 5X7,(something I need to do more often) and just had fun misting and layering.

now, if anyone wants to find me, I guess they can.... have my address and name out there in cyberland, along with a picture of my house! good thing I'm not being stalked!

Thanks for looking!  More pages to come.
