Blog Party!

DigitalArts Cafe is having a blog party from December 1st through December 7th. They invited anyone who wanted to participate. So I am not a designer but I can make quickpages, so I signed up. I may even try to make a few papers. It sounds like so much fun. In fact I may even get someone (besides my Sister) to read my blog. lol. Anyway I made a couple of more layout for the book I am making for my daughter. This kit I used is DayBreak by BooLand Designs.

Bad day

My poor daughter had a car accident today. A car went through a red light hit her car, pushed her into another car and then took off. A witness got the first 3 letters of the license plate but that just isn't enough. I could go on and say how terrible it is but I just thank God that no one was hurt. I have 2 more layouts to show. They are for the book I am making for my daughter. These were pictures taken at her Christening back in 1991. The kit I used is Mehndi by Ashalee Wall.

The Wedding

I have a little story behind my next 2 layouts. Two weeks ago, my daughter-in-laws cousin got married. She had asked my daughter in law as well as my 2 granddaughters to be in the wedding party. My granddaughters would be the flower girls. My daughter in law was a little skeptical as my youngest granddaughter is only 3 and she just couldn't see her walking down the isle like a good little girl. She mentioned this to her cousin, but her cousin said oh she will be fine. Then they went to their first fitting. At the fitting my daughter asked her if she was going to walk down the isle like a little princess. She told her mom, no, I am going to walk like a monkey and proceeded to demonstrate how she would walk along with the monkey sounds she would make. lol. So needless to say, my daughter in law talked her cousin out of having her as a flower girl. Then to top it all off, the night of the rehearsal dinner, my daughter in law called me and said can I please bring the girls over? Because she said my little monkey girl was spitting (actually she was doing raspberries, but of course she was spraying as she did them) and my older granddaughter was trying to make her behave which of course just made matters worst and my daughter in law said they just weren't being good listeners. Anyway, the layouts are of my beautiful little princess flower girl and my beautiful little monkey girl on the day of the wedding. The kit I used is Thankful by Skrapper Digitals.

Busy Week

Busy week for me that is! On Monday night my Son called and asked me to sit with the kids, as his father in law was at the emergency room. So I was at my Sons house till 2 in the morning. Then on Tuesday, I had to go to a wake. My Son-in-laws Aunt passed away. That was so sad, she was young. Then on Wednesday night, I went to dinner with my old co-workers. I had a nice dinner and a good time. There was about 12 of us there. We meet for dinner every 2 to 3 months. My first supervisor at my job and now my friend usually calls everyone. Whoever comes, comes and we always have a nice time. Then Friday was halloween. So around 3:30 I went to my grandchildrens daycare and went trick or treating with them. My oldest Granddaughter was a princess. No surprise there. She is a girly girl and just loves all the princesses. My youngest granddaughter was Dorothy from the wizard of oz. She had on the blue checkered dress with a basket with toto (the dog) in it. But what really made her costume was the braided wig she wore. She was just too cute. Then of Saturday I went to my friend Nicks house for dinner. That was an adventure in itself as I had never been to his house before. Thank goodness for my GPS. I really had a nice time. We had a very nice dinner and Nick, Linda and myself sat at the table talking about everything and anything. Nick showed me his magic tricks he does for his shows. I love seeing magic. So here I am back to Sunday, nice and quiet. Kelly just had her friend over and they played video games and I finished my second layout with Visions of Sugarplums by Sweet Made. A couple of more pages for the book I am making of my youngest daughter.
