"Twinderella" Performances and Sneak Peeks.....

Well, we had a busy weekend, Danielle had two performances for her "Twinderella" Play that she was in at her school.....She was part of the ensemble cast, which basically sings, dances, and does an assortment of things for the play...but regardless, she did a wonderful job.


I think Danielle was abit nervous with her first Play Performance and was showing me some attitude, so of course.....I start snapping photos....she was NOT HaPPY with me at all....lol!!! Heehee, this photo makes me laugh everytime...too funny!!!

I also just got the Treasured Scrapbooking April Kit and it was perfect for these photos......so here are some sneaky peeks.......and more to come!!!!!




and finally I took some pics of some of the NEW flowers, trees that are starting to bloom in my yard....I so LOVE Spring!!!




Until Later..........

Woohoo, the Weekend is Almost here......

Well, lets see....its been so dang crazy around here!! Kaleb got his cast off last monday, went to school on Tuesday and came home that day with the flu. He really got a bad case of it this

time around. Poor Kid!!! Then Danielle came home from school on Wednesday not feeling good and she was out the rest of the week, as well. She just ran a fever, no throwing up...thank goodness!!!

Danielle and I went to Raleigh to see my best friend, Pam and her family for the weekend. The kids have been dying to see eachother....actually, I think Danielle and Ryan have been dying to see eachother. Pam neighborhood does Bunko every month and this month they decided to go and eat at Kabuki Japanese Restaurant...and can I just say they had the best strawberry Margaritas that I've ever had....So damn good!!! I think their was a total of 12 of us...had such a great time with the girls and NO kids!!!

The next day before I left to head home...we took the kids to the park....


I also got my last layout done for the Tallyscrapper DT Search!!!


Survivor( or the Office) challenges are going strong over at Tallyscrapper still.....Here is my layouts for both Week 6 and Week 7..........

Where Oh Where have I been.......

I am such a BAD blogger....I can't believe its been 2 weeks since I last updated!!! Well, I have LOTS and LOTS to report...My little man, Kaleb turned "8" on March 11th, I still can't believe how big he is getting!!!! We didn't have a HUGE party, yeah right...invited all of his friends from the neighborhood and it was pure chaos, but he had a great time!!!

Well, for Kaleb's birthday and for the family....we got a NEW toy....a Wii....we are LOVIN' this thing. Bowling so far is my favorite and Kaleb can beat some daddy butt in that game....You go little man!!!!! But then on Saturday, dad took the kids bowling and well...dad beat him and he was NOT happy....lol ;)
Also, went to Ortho today for Kaleb's arm...they removed the cast, xrayed his arm and when I saw the xray, I just about fainted....it look like one of the bones had re-broken, but luckily it hadn't and the doctor pointed out the new bone growth. So NO cast, but a sandwich splint on top & bottom and wrapped in an ace bandage....just for some extra support for about a month. And he can remove it for bathtime....thank goodness!!!!!
It has been so crazy, that I haven't even put up my Treasured Scrapbooking March Kit#1 Reveals.....what an AWESOME kit that Leslie put together......check it out:


The entire March Kit #1:



Also, don't forget we are having our "Treasured Scrapbooking" March Crop this weekend, March 20-22 and the theme is "Women In History" to celebrate Women's History Month. Be there or be square!!!!!

Also, another week under my belt for the Survivor Challenges over at Tallyscapper....this week, Ms. HO issued the challenge and it was a tough one....to ONLY use office supplies, no pattern paper, no flowers, etc. and to use older pics....so I dug deep and found some photos from when I worked at Walmart back in 1990....holy moly, these crack me up!!!!

I'm also trying out for the DESIGN TEAM over at Tallyscrapper again. I've only got two layouts done so far, for the search.....check them out....I love being on the DT over there, both Christine and Rachel are great to work with!!!! So wish me luck!!!!!

Well, I guess that is it for now......Until I see ya again!!!
