September 2013

Wow so it's hard to believe that I have let a whole year go by without blogging. Well here are a few updates. My o,dest son traveled to Australia with Down Under Sports to represent the USA and WI in track and field. He did after bring his 4 by 4 team to the State competition. It was his 2nd year in a row going to state. His 4 by 4 team took 10th in the state. Can you say PROUD mama. He is now off to college ay Alabama A&M. Now it's just me and my 15 year old at home. This mom now has lots more time for scrapping and blogging so I hope to update at least once a week.

At the beginning of he year I started Project Life I will upload the weeks that I have completed at a date soon.  I am sad to say that I am no longer caught up, it has been a super crazy busy summer but I will be caught up soon. Tata for now.

Hello all today is a great day. I am proud to say that I am blessed to see another day. My mom told me the tragic story of a young girl who goes to her church. This little girl is the same age asy youngest child. She has contracted bacterial meneigits spelled wrong. The outlook for her is not too good. I have to say that through it all I am truly blessed to have the family and friends that I do as well as healthy children. Thank you God

A new year

Happy new year and a very haapy birthday to my Uncle James. The time is really getting by. I can hardly believe that my son will soon be going on his trip to Europe. We are very excited but in the mean time my computer crashed and I have to post from my IPhone oh yay. Here are a couple of projects that I have been working on. Until next time ttyl.

October is here

Wow October is here and I am so excited. This is the month of my birthday which I tend to celebrate for the entire month.  I have been really busy as you might see and have not updated my blog since August. 

Well for starters my youngest son will be going to Europe next summer. We have been really excited and pretty busy getting things together.  Then my oldest son is getting his drivers license this year. He passed the permit test but in our household all of the birth certificates came up missing wow but I have no fear they will turn up.

August Memories

Welcome to August fellow bloggers. This is the month to get ready to send the kids off to school. It is also the month where many people have their family reunions.  We had ours over the last weekend in July only I was not able make it. I have seen many pictures of the event and boy do I wish that I could have made it. But no use wishing for what could have been.  I have been here enjoying the peace and quiet of not having to have the childen home for the summer. Although they have not been here they were sorely missed.  While they were away I spent the time being crafty. I  created two paperbag mini albums which I will upload pictures of. Until next time.

Vacation

Well it seems a while since I have added a post. The reason being is that I was on a staycation with all of my friends and family coming here for a visit instead of me going somewhere else.  Well I must say that we really enjoyed ourselves. We went to the Mall of America several days in a row and did some outlet mall shopping. I think the only thing we did while on vacation was shop and eat. But my family loves to do that so as the kids say no harm no foul.  I did not take many pictures while on vacation but I did manage to create some paper bag albums.  I have wanted to try them for a while and will upload pictures later. Feel free to comment my feelings will not be hurt for your honesty. Until next time.
