This is a photo of my scraproom before

the big move. As you can see I was a bit

cramped in this space and the lovely

wood paneling(great idea for any room!)

made the creative process really take flight!

The new scrap nook is much brighter and

has a lot more storage space. I will post a photo of the new nook after I have cleaned up a bit:)

What a Wednesday!

This is what "hump day" is

all about!

German Chocolate Cake

from Cold Stone

and the company of some

fantastic girl friends:)

I think I need this.............

and all of the add-on kits. Is there

a time when an honest hobby turns

into a strange but lovely obsession?

Last night we went to

the WCF Symphony Orchestra's

Spring Pops concert, a showing of the

original Wizard of Oz with all music

played live by the symphony. It was

amazing!! The movie was shown in its

original form with an intermission. I have

seen this movie so many times I have it

memorized, but let me tell you, I saw things

that I have never seen before! The colors, the

songs, the munchkins, all were better than I

ever remembered! If you ever have a chance to see the movie,

or any good old movie like this, do it!! You will be so glad that you did:)

Have a great Saturday!

It's Wednesday & I am dog tired.......

Sure this photo was taken after we

had had Christmas Eve dinner at my

parents & we had opened presents, but

this is kind of how I feel today.......I wish

I had some presents to open now;)

If it's Tuesday.....

it's Real Housewives time!

This show is one of my gulitest pleasures. The drama is more than I can handle some

times, but it is so worth it!! I love the Orange County girls, but the New York ladies are too much not to love:)

Monday......kind of glad it's over.

What if the week started with Friday???
Wouldn't that just make everyone a bit
happier and excited to start the week?!
Anyway, Monday wasn't too bad, but I still
am not a fan! Better post tomorrow - I promise:)

Sunday...........

was fun, thanks Ry:)
Ready for the week and all
that comes with it!!

I love this girl:) This is a photo of Erin & I

taken at one of our weekly dinners. I love these dinners, they are always full of laugher & too much yummy food! I am not sure what we are going to do when Erin moves away in a few short weeks! I do know one thing, I love Erin and I cherish our moments together:)

TGIF!!!

See ya later longest week EVER!

Hello Friday! Looking forward to

dinner with Emily, Erin, & Ryan tonight.

And tomorrow a relaxing day of

homework & scrapbooking:)

Have a great weekend:):)

Happy Thursday!

Thursdays are always such great days!
Thanks to my husband Thursdays have
been my day to just relax & regroup & enjoy
life:) So today is no exception. Work was
fantastic - park trips are always high up
on my list of fun! Now I am getting ready to m
meet Erin for a quick trip to Cedar Rapids
for dinner & a bit of scrappy shopping:):)
Thanks Ryan for driving us on this little
week night field trip & for making me so
happy to be me!!!

Remember when life was this simple?
The toughest decision you had to make
was how you would dress your Super Star
Barbie:) Love Barbie & the fact that even
today she still makes me smile!!
Hope you have a Barbie kind of day!

When good days go so bad.......

how long does a Tuesday really need to be?
I ask this because this has been the longest day
ever!!!!!! Really, I have been dead tired & the hour
between 12 noon and 1:00 took about 6 days!
I am now on my way to school where I will be for
the next two hours.......Mandy I need you, a latte,
a giant cookie, & US magazine:)

I love this time of year!

Today was the Cubs home opener &

where else in the world would they play

baseball in the freezing cold rain?? Love it!

Here's to another great season!! Go Cubs!!

Happy Easter!!

Worlds Worst Blogger!

I am the worst blogger ever! I fully intend to
post every day, then things just happen!
I promise no more excuses & more posts.....
starting next week:)
Have a great Easter!!!

Go Cubs Go!!!

Hey baseball fans it is opening
day!! Watched most of the game
at the OP with Ryan:) Big Z looks
pretty good and the batting was
amazing! Like I say every year,
it looks like this may be the year....
