I have an afro

So I got a perm..don't ask why..everyone tried to talk me out of it, but I wanted my hair to have some BODY. And I wanted to be able to go on this long vacation this summer and just be able to wet it, gel it and forget it!(sounds like an infomercial, huh!)

so anyways...I like it, noone else does...too darn bad, it'll go away eventually!




Jason says that HE now gets to sleep with 3 poodles at night...

I walked into the house and Jadyn looked at me and said "you're ugly!" and walked away...sigh....I like it....I THINK I like it...does anyone else like it??

Klo's gratitude journal is finished!

Considering I fly to Texas to meet up with Klo on Wednesday, I figured I'd better get a move on and finish her gratitude journal.

Remember the cover? (taken in really bad lighting...)










She likes animals and critters..that's why we're friends..lol So that's why I flooded her journal with little cute creatures! enjoy!

As I sit here...

putting baby Kenzie down for her nap....I realize I need to blog more often. I get on a roll and then a couple of weeks goes by with nothing..sooooo...I have nothing much to say today, but I wanna keep my blog rolling...hhhmmmnn...a random picture would be nice, right? Ok here's what Jason and I satisfied our boredom with before bed last night...



Bellas's been reading too much lately as well.

what? what did you expect to see a picture of? Sheesh..dirty minded people....heh

Four eyes

So I read...I read and I read and I read...I read for hours..every day...and now....I need glasses..cause I read TOO much...lol

So here I am...with my new glasses. Jacob calls me Madame Librarian. Jason says they're sexy...I think they make me look 12 years old. But at least I can KEEP ON READIN! woot!




PS- have you ever seen so many roses one one bush? And 10 more show up everyday! crazy....

hang in there...

i'll figure out this template thing soon enough..i finally found one that i love, and i can't figure out how to download it! =(

Happy Memorial Day!

My brother Kevin and his family came for a visit this weekend and stayed with us for 2 nights. My hubby Jason was the inlaw with the mostest and surprised us all by renting a pontoon boat for all of us to enjoy up in Big Bear! The kids all had a blast and we got soaked, thanks to Jasons obsession with riding other boats wakes..haha

Here are some great pics from yesterday. Weather is amazing in So Cali right now.





















We also went to the pool for a bit today.





Wish this whole summer felt this darn good!
Happy Memorial Day!!

Corinna kidnapped my blog...

and I think it puked up some color...haha

I am in serious need of some good blog bling and template that rocks...I hate my blog...will make it better ASAP!

Date night..woot woot!

So Jasons brother Daryn was nice enough to give us some tickets to a Padres/Cubs game for yesterday that he got at work. Mom watched the kids for us so we could go, and we drove to San Diego and got to the game just seconds before it started. I have to say that Petco stadium so totally rocks! The layout was great, the weather was amazing, it was clean, a million bathrooms and more food than I've ever seen in my life! (Thank God for self control, cause I wanted to eat everything I smelled, and we ate NOTHING there..yay us!) So we had great seats, and watched the game for a while....




and then left and went to our hotel cause we were exhausted! We got a priceline room and it sent us to the Manchester Hyatt, which is probably the NICEST hotel I've ever been in outside of Vegas!

Had breakfast in the morning (can you tell I skipped past all the hotel details? hehe) and then went to COstco to load up on food cause my brother Kevin and his family will be here any minute to spend the weekend with us. More pics from this weekend will be posted Monday! Have a great weekend and a safe HOliday!

Backyard spring blooms

Ok just have to share something that made me happy today. Everything is blooming in my backyard! Now granted....some of these are probably wild weeds and NOT flowers, but they're pretty so I don't care! Have a happy day!

a gratitude journal for Kloey

So I have this amazing friend name Klo. She's famous but she won't admit it..so we have this running Joke that EVERYONE knows Klo..cause it's kinda true..in the scrapbooking industry that is! So I made her a gratitude journal. ANd I'm lazy and I don't have a lot of time, so I took this picture fast in bad lighting and it's blurry and a really bad pic with bad color, but you get the point! Here is the cover of her gratitude journal. Don't tell her, cause she doesn't get to see it till Texas in 2 weeks! hehe (ps...click on the pic to blow it up so you can read what's in the word bubbles!)

Long time no blog

***DISCLAIMER***
if your name is Candice Stewart, you are to leave my blog RIGHT NOW>..NO PEEKY PEEKY. You will see your baby gift soon enough. Behave...have self control. Buh bye =)

I know I know..it's been 4freakinever! I am a busy girl. Just got back from 2 scrap conventions. One in San Diego (del mar) and one in Novi Michigan. In 2 weeks I'll be leaving again for another one in Texas! Getting back on track with my diet, by this time next week I could *crossing my fingers* be at my lowest weight in 12 years! *gasp*

Ok, so You may not think I've been scrappin much cause I havn't blogged a lot, but that would be false. I've acctually finished 4 mini albums this month, including one that I won't be showing yet, cause I havn't found a bind it all to bind it together yet..boo hoo (and its the coolest one of all,**a teresa collins album** so I need to find one soon!)

Anyways, here are the 3 albums I have finished and have pics of.

This first album is kind of a "Jill's got ants in her pants" album. One of those "just got really cool brand new Scenic Route paper and I have to use it NOW!" albums. One of those..."ooh, this paper will look really cool in a black chipboard mini album with different size pages" albums. he...he....
















Remember the cover of this album below? I FINALLY finished it! This album was made with a Melissa Frances chipboard album, and once again...Scenic Route paper! All pics are from a family vacation the year I found out I was pregnant with Jadyn.














And last but not least, this baby mini album is for my sister in law who just had her first little baby girl Piper. It's acctually a kit I bought at the expo last week, so I can't claim its cuteness.

















The Teresa Collins album pics will be posted as soon as it's bound. It soooo totally rocks!
