total weirdness

Today, I took a nap with Katie while Charlie took his because I haven't been sleeping well this past week. Don't really know what my problem is. Stress? Nah. Heat? Nah. Like I said...don't really know. Anyway, I had seen this video on youtube and thought it was hilarious. If you haven't seen it, you must stop reading and watch it. Now. Stop reading. I mean it.

Glad you're back. Funny, no? So I watched the video before I took a nap and had the weirdest dream. I dreamt that I was camping out with Rob Pattinson (Edward Cullen for those of you who live under rocks. I kid. I kid.) I wasn't married in my dream so it was totally OK to be making out with him (Sorry, Richard- who didn't exist in my dreamlike state of mind) but while we were camping (which i hate to do, btw) he was also filming New Moon. At the campsite, there were a lot of really crazed fans and one of them had her daughter with her and came rushing towards Rob. Rob had just finished a scene with a fencing sword (because of the video, I'm sure) and she ended up getting impaled. It was awful. But what he did after was even more awful. The boy ran. RAN AWAY. He flipped out and ran. ugh. That's when I lost all respect for him as a human being and woke myself up because I didn't want to have this dream anymore. What does it all mean?

Maybe it means I should move on and show you my latest creation.

This was done for 2peas:

 

A layout of my bff's wedding. I embossed "LOVE" with metallic AC powder and pasted the itty bitty strips of yellow papers. A little stamping and thickers...throw in a prima flower and BAM! you're finished.

Have a great weekend!

Happy Father's Day (from charlie)

 

and the inside of the card:

 

the latest in the "Charlie Says What?" line of cards.

:)

happy father's day to all those awesome dads out there. Go party your basses off!

ok. which one of you mowed my lawn?

This morning, I went to make some dinners at Dream Dinners and when I came back home, I noticed that the lawn had been mowed. Richard usually hires someone to do it but from the looks of the lawn, it was mowed by a riding mower and not our usual push mower. So when Richard came home, he asked who had mowed our lawn. I told him that i didn't know. Our lawn had been looking rather long-ish and unkept with all the stinking rain we've been getting.

So whoever you are, random riding lawn mower person, thank you and sorry we didn't mow it sooner. I have a sneaking suspicion that it was one of our next door neighbors, as they both own riders. One of them has even come by and given us a ham. A honey baked ham. It wasn't Easter, Christmas or any holiday that requires the use of pig. Random, no?

Have a great weekend!

just a quick little note...

hi everyone.

:)

the garden bloomed.

katie's mini album.

lots of eye candy at these sites for your viewing pleasure.

i'm not proud but i am honest.

At least I try to be. Even if some of the things I've done are embarassing and just plain wrong. Mostly in the field of motherhood, which brings me to today's layout:

 

If you must see the journaling, here it is:

 

I did this layout last year and something has changed since then. I do volunteer at the school. I did a lot this past year. Just ask Katie's teacher. She'll vouch for me.

:)

have a great weekend everyone!

randomness: part four

I'm no longer using the french numbers because i honestly don't remember how to spell 'four' en francais. Tres mal, n'est-ce pas? So on with my randonmess...

1. We are officially on summer break. I don't think the girls know what to do because they come and ask me all throughout the day, "What can we do?". So yesterday, I made them a homework packet to do during the week. This was NOT what they had in mind.

2. I've been working on the same layout for the past week. The past 6 days have been moving the photos around. Today, I finally put it together but it's still missing something. I can't figure it out and it's driving me crazy. It's a 2-page layout.

3. Note to self: Self, don't do anymore 2-page layouts!

4. I thought about signing the girls up for the swim team which meets every MWF at 8:30. Judging by the two days of summer break that's gone by so far, I will not be able to get 3 kids + me out of the house at that time.

5. I think i just signed up for a cake decorating class.

6.  I don't bake.

7. Charlie turned 19 months three days ago. The girls will be in the 3rd and 1st grade. I wish I had a <PAUSE> button. (But some days I wish I had a <FAST FORWARD> button)

8. Richard and I went to see The Hangover last week. Pretty funny but a little gross. And violent. And Bradley Cooper looks good although his mouth bothers me a bit.

9. Is anyone else excited about the Harry Potter movie? I know I am.

10. 20 year high school reunion this August. HOW CAN THIS BE?!

i wil not make this 3 weeks in a row.

I have a layout this week.

phew.

 

inspired/lifted from fellow scrapper-friend, melanie.

also, i did a mini for the 2peas garden:

 

 

 

 

 

 

it's the girls' last day of school today. i don't know how i feel about this yet. come ask me an about a week or two when things settle down...

have a great weekend everyone!

it's been a- 3 mini album, 3 card, 6 layout- kinda month...

I'm such a slow scrapper that it isn't even funny. I also procrastinate. If you combine the two, it makes for some loooooonnnngggg nights for the past week. I really need to work on getting faster and managing my time wiser for the future. it NEVER helps when a new New Moon trailer comes out either. everyone say it with me....

What was i talking about? Oh yeah. To look at some of what i was working on this month, head on over to 2peas and browse through the designer gallery.

mighty fine day.

sorry about the no layout last week. i was here:

 

this would be hilton head island. i was there with my friend from grade school whom i'd lost touch with when she moved away in the 7th grade. she found me on facebook. thank you, facebook.

so to make up for my lack of scrap-sharing, i will share this with you...

 

holy cow.

yes ladies. this would be the half-naked Edward Cullen in New Moon.

a mighty fine day, if you ask me. now go talk amongst yourselves while i take a cold shower.
