Just wanted to share....

this cool picture I took a few weeks ago at my SIL's pool. I love how it turned out.

That's my baby boy. His twin sister would not care of that at all. hehe!

Look what I learned to do!!!!

Well, I bought Photoshop Elements 5.0 a couple of months ago, right after getting my new Rebel and have been totally overwhelmed with it. So I really haven't used it much. But today I decided that I had to start learning this program! So I sat down and played with it for quite a while. The first thing I was determined to learn was how to create a black & white photo with some color. And although it took awhile and some asking around, I did it! I'm so excited! This is what I did.....

How cool is that! Oh, and btw, that cutie in the photo is my baby nephew, Nataniel! Isn't he adorable?

Bingo Night!

Oh, how we *love* Bingo night! We drove up to Orlando just for it. It is always a blast! Once again we weren't big winners (never are); but just getting to hang out and laugh with friends is all worth it. Here are just a couple pictures from our weekend!

Jeremy couldn't handle the late night! He fell asleep on Mt. Juan! hehe! I didn't say that...that was Johnny! I'm just repeating!

Next time *Game Night* is our house! Woohoo!!

Thanks, Scrap4Life!

A big thanks to Scrap4Life.com for hosting a wonderful *Scrap Pink* Crop! The girls gave us quite a crop...with great challenges, layouts and games! I just wish I had more time to play! But I did get a few layouts and a card completed. Here are just a couple of my favorite layouts from this past weekend:

Can't wait to do this again next year! Thanks, Scrap4Life.com!!!

They likey!

So the other day I was at Super Walmart picking up some baby food for the twins and at the same time talking to my sister. Now, this girl can tell you everything about every baby product out there! Seriously! So she was telling me about these cereal bars for babies. Never heard of them! So I find them and pick up a box. Ever since, she's been calling...did they like them? Did they like them? Well...what do you think?


Yeah...I think they did!

October "Fallin' Star" Kit

The October kit is now available for purchase at Scrap4Life.com. If you haven't already seen it, here ya go:


I had the pleasure of working with Jodie from Scrap4Life in putting this kit together. It was tons of fun to work with. What I liked best about this kit is that you can go in so many different directions with it. As you can see from the projects I created using this kit...I did some Fall pages, some sports pages, baby stuff...the ideas are endless. Here's a photo of everything I made using the kit:


And because I don't know if my sister will check out my gallery (she's a bit busy), this is for you, sis:


That's my beautiful niece, Alexis. And here's another for you, sista:



This is a mini album I made of my sweet nephew, Nataniel. I used the Rusty Pickle Chipboard Album. It was a bit tricky to work with, but I love the way it turned out!

If you'd like a closer look at each of the projects, just visit my gallery at Scrap4Life.com. Here's the link: http://www.scrap4life.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=8104&cat=500&ppuser=74
