three weeks

It's almost been that long since my last post here. I'm sure you are all wondering what happened to me. I didn't fall in a hole or get beamed up by aliens, I've just been busy being a mom and getting all those last minute school things finished before the kids are out for Summer. Emily's got three days left and the rest of them five.... that's it!! I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to summer vacation!! No more alarms going off and rushing to make it to the bus, no more homework to check and last minute book reports to do.

Today was another rush, here rush there kinda day. Tomorrow I promise I will post some of what's been going on... right now it's after ten, my feet hurt from wearing heels all day and I just wanna crash. Before I go though, I'll leave you with some cards I did for Tonya's challenge over at AMM.

AMM's Book Of Me Class

Oh I forgot to tell you about their new online class. One of the DT members Karen is teaching it. It's 6 easy & not so easy things about me mini album. I'm signed up and working on it. I thought it was a great thing for me since I rarely do any scrapping of me. I wanted my kids and their kids to have a piece of me... something I wish I had from my past generations. If you think it might be something you're interested in today's the last day to sign up and for $10 it's a great deal!

Here's what I've done so far...

National Scrapbook Day Weekend...

was last weekend. You could find a crop in just about every brick and mortar and online store. I spent my weekend at home playing along online at A Million Memories. They had loads of great challenges and I got quite a few done.
And more cards than I have done in along time.

Twilight

Yes I'm one of the masses who loves this book!! It is a world wide best seller by Stephanie Meyer ya'know... and now that it's being turned into a movie I'm even more excited. There aren't many movies I'd rank in the category, "I can't wait to see it!!". Off the top of my head... Harry Potter, National Treasure, Lord of The Rings, and now I can add Twilight to the list. I just hope it lives up to my expectations.
A friend of mine sent me a link to view the first trailer!! You can see it here.

Braces

After quite a wait Zac has finally got braces! His teeth have been messed up since those two top teeth came in. He'll be wearing them for the next 18 months. Every time I look at him with them on, he looks different. Somehow older and more grown up. In just a few more weeks my son will be twelve! I can't believe it!!

Being Productive...

This it the week of SU's monthly crop. I've been busting out a bunch of pages. Some of them using swaps. Like these two at the top. I used the She is... Swap. I'm making this mini for Emily.

I know this one looks a lot like that one above and you'd be right but this one is for Ally's Album.

I loved these pics of Jesse on the trractor from last fall. He had a blast pretending on them!


One of me and Hubby from two years ago. He is nortorious for screwing up any picture with him in it! He can't stand having his picture taken so he talks while people snap away or tries to distract the other people in the photo.

Here's a LO of my family and some of the reasons I love them. This is one of the pictures from Easter.

I love this one of Kylie holding the baby tortoise. I used the Kisses and Hugs swap.

Since the DT thing is over...

I thought I would share my entries with you. I used the January kit from A Million Memories and a few other odds and ends.
