EXCITING NEWS!!

I am heading back to the workforce!!! I had offers with both firms that I had interviewed with. I thought it was going to take much longer considering I had been out of the workforce for 6 1/2 years. But it didn't! It only took two weeks! I thank God for that! Anyways, both of these firms gave me excellent offers...one was a bigger one with more opportunities for growth. The other one was a smaller firm but I could basically make my own hours and work from home. They were going to be much more flexible with me. It was such a hard decision to make. I was leaning toward the bigger firm but honestly, knew it would be too hard on the family. They are my priority right now and I have to do what will be right for all of us. So I took the offer with the smaller firm and start on Monday!!! I am so excited! The twins started daycare a week ago and are doing wonderful!! Jazlyn is still not too sure but Jeremy loves it. I also changed Bianca to their school and she absolutely loves it! I think it's because her baby brother and sister are there. So definitely alot of things going on here. I'm off to the mall to do some shopping for work clothes! Woohoo!! Have a wonderful day!

Super *Scrap* Bowl Weekend at Scrap4Life

Scrap4Life's Cyber Crop was rockin' this weekend! Here's what I did for the challenges over there:

FOREVER US

For this next layout, the challenge was to create an all black & white layout using a color photo. This is what I did. Not too happy with it but it's done. This is my sister and her husband (then boyfriend) at their prom.

PROM

And well, this is all I got done for the crop. I probably would have gotten more done but I spent most of the weekend trying to figure out what my oh, so wonderful husband did to my computer. He decided he'd clean it up. I told him to leave it alone. But, of course, he doesn't listen to me. I go to bed on Friday night and left him alone with my computer. Bad idea! He started deleting files and well, now I can't get on to my online galleries. Ugh! Gotta love him, though! His intentions were good, right?. hehe!

I also started this layout for the crop but didn't get it done on time. Finished it up this morning. This is my silly 4-year old! She loves music! Sometimes I feel like I have a teenager in the house. Here she is rockin' to the Cheetah girls!

These next two layouts I had started before the crop and had put them to the side. I was able to finish them up today, also.

I just love this one!

And can you believe this is the same kid that is flying in the air? Waaaaah!!! They grow up way too fast!

Well, I think I have some exciting news to share!! I'll be back later! Happy Monday!!

Returning to work....

Well, it that time. It's time for me to head back to the work force. The days of staying home to care for my children will soon be coming to an end. I have so many mixed feelings about this. I need the money and a break but at the same time, I don't know if I'm ready to leave them. I know they will be well taken care of but it will still be hard. The twins started day care yesterday and seem to be doing very well. Bianca, well, she's my little tail and will probably struggle the most. But I know in due time, she will be just fine too. She is such an outgoing person. So this week I am actively looking for work. I have 3 interviews lined up for this week alone. Crazy, huh?! So if anyone needs a tax accountant...call me! LOL!

On the *scrap* side, I did do several more layouts that I would love to share. Here are just a few of them.

Look at how tiny the twins were! Waaaaah!

They sure to grow up fast! Well, back to my job searching!

Just want to share...

some layouts I have done the past week.

Here's my beautiful 4 year old at her cousin, Coralys, quinceniera in Puerto Rico. Thank goodness the "cheesy grin" phase is gone! hehe!

And I adore this photo of the twins' when they were soooooo tiny all cuddled up in their daddy's arms.

And this is my sweet Jeremy only a few days old. He weighed a little over 5 lbs here, that boy is HUGE now...we took him in last week for his year check up and he's at 23 lbs. That's one big boy!

I've done a few more layouts but just uploaded a few of my favorites. You can see some more layouts in my gallery at Scrap4Life.com.

Finally...Christmas pictures to share!

New Year's Day pictures...

So here are just a couple of pictures from New Years Day....

My Girls

Now don't let this sweet face fool you...he likes to pull hair. Yep, he just started that about a week ago. My poor girls, the minute they get near him, he goes for their hair. LOL! And he thinks it's the funniest thing. Boys!

Of course, I took tons more pictures but have yet to edit them. I'll try to upload some more. Enjoy!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

It's been awhile! Life has been crazy around here since Christmas! We had family in from Chicago. We spent a few days in Orlando at the SIL's house for Christmas and then everyone was down here to bring in the new year. I have tons of pictures to share but still haven't uploaded or edited. So unlike me!

Now for some exciting news! Have y'all seen the new Scrap4Life site?! If not...you need to stop by! The new looks is so fresh and fun! And if that's not exciting enough, the January Kit - Take Note was just released yesterday! It is amazing! I think this is my favorite kit thus far! Take a look......

Here are three layouts I did using this kit:

My sweet Jeremy at just a few days old

My beautiful girl, Bianca

And this is my baby girl, Jaz, dreaming of angels

The Making Memories paper is to die for! It is so gorgeous! I have yet to work on the calendar. I hope to do that this weekend!
