Cardinal's Game

This is the picture Randy sent the kids before they went to bed from the Cardinal's game he went to last night. They thought it was pretty cool to see. Randy stayed in St. Louis after the game and then came home this afternoon. I think he had a pretty good time...I guess they left in the 7th inning since the Cardinals were ahead by so much (14-1 maybe?) but then went to a couple of casinos. I'm thinking he must have stayed out late (or early, depending on how you want to look at it!) since he came home and has been "napping" for a while now. He did say he'd take us all out for dinner this evening. :)

Since Randy was gone, the kids and I spent the evening hanging out at home....they watched a movie and I scrapped a little while watching some Lipstick Jungle episodes on-line from last season. Rebecca and Erica watch it and like it so I thought I'd see if I liked it. I finished all of last season's episodes so I am ready for the new season to start on Sept. 24. :) I finished a layout of me and Randy too.

me & you
Journaling: Some things were simply meant to be...me for you & you for me

This morning the kids and I got the house cleaned a bit. Not our favorite thing to do on Saturday mornings by any means, but it does feel nice to get things clean though. :) This afternoon Rylee and Reeva worked on these altered keychain albums to hang on their backpacks.

I suppose that is enough for now....Have a great weekend!

Progressive Dinner Party

Randy and I get a night out with some friends tonight. Yay! Some of our friends put together a progressive dinner party - we have done this once before and had a lot of fun. We were one of the host homes last time but this time we get to travel as guests only. :o) We start at Brett and Anna's at 5:30 for appetizers and cocktails. From there we will go to Joe and Trudy's for the main course and then on to Andy and Andrea's for dessert. We had a lot of fun the last time...I'm glad Andy and Andrea decided to put another one together. There will be 8 couples traveling and just hanging out....Libb and Shaun, Scott and Stacy, Jay and Traci, and Kelly and Jennifer. Can't wait!

Last night, I went to a crop and got a layout completed for Reece's 6th birthday. I know, pretty sad to only finish one in an evening - especially when I already had it started!! But, anyone who knows me knows how slooooow I scrap...it's my 'me' time (thanks to Randy who pushes me out the door each month while he keeps the kids :o) and I pretty much relax and enjoy it...I'm really not there to fly through the pages...plus there's lots of talkin' and eatin' to do too!! We started making plans for our annual weekend crop in January. The dad's get the kids and we all pack up and take of for a weekend of scrappin' and shopping! Fun, fun. :o) Libb has went with me the last two years and we have a great time. Anyway, here's the layout I completed last night: (I think you can click on it to make it bigger)

Latest Layouts

Reeva got braces in Feb. She's doing great with them. I can't believe how much difference we can already see. :)

A layout of me and Randy and what I love about us!

Beautiful

Reeva and Rylee - I can't believe how fast they are growing up.

I see U pretty girl

I adore this picture of Reegan. You can see the bit of mischief that is always in her eyes. So glad Linda captured this shot! I had so much fun creating this "hodge-podge" layout. Randy wanted to know where the "stuff" was on the rest of the page - but I love it just like this!

Little Sister

Love this picture of Reece and Reegan and the poem is perfect. Reece made me read it to him several times and laughed every time!
Poem:
Little Sister
My sister is a nuisance...my sister is a pain. If it was up to ME I'd leave her out in the rain. But don't you tease my sister or be mean to her at all, 'cause I'll stand up for my baby sis' 'cause she thinks I'm 10 feet tall. -Patsy Gant

BFF x 6

Made this layout for a class at the Scrapbook Tree! I had a lot of fun doing it and am glad I finally took the time to create a layout and journal about my sisters and our friendship.

Timeless

Little Miss Reegan playing dress up and looking absolutely adorable!

Ok, so here are a "few" of my latest layouts. Libb and I are getting ready to go on a scrapbooking shopping spree tomorrow so I'm sure I'll be buying way too much stuff. Hopefully, I'll get to have lots of fun using it!
