TOGETHER

here are the christmas projects i threw together when trying to decorate. It turned out to be a mod podge & glitter theme. I started using the mod podge in dd big picture class and couldnt stop. i made little ornament frames that hold a picture and put them of the kids and their cousins all over these three wreaths. here are a few close ups of the little ornament frames: then i cut out chipboard letters covered them with red cardstock, sprayed them with the glitter spray & strung them with string. these were fun. some of the pictures did not turn out so clear, sorry about that. i am getting ready to take the tree down, so i wanted to get these posted before i destruct!

so it is pretty late, or it is early actually. i worked tonight, came home & started working some more...in the scrappin room. so much fun i was a mod podge fool! it made me so happy & now i have so many things that i am mod podging in my head. new class??? stay tuned. anyway yesterday was thanksgiving & i had so much to be thankful for here is one: nice huh? she was so tired, so crabby after a long, fun day with her cousins. they were both zombies by the end but well worth it. not worth it the day after when they are so crabby, but i guess you are going to have that. now i am thinking this picture is kinda scarry! i am not sure where those blue eyes came from, but they are very blue!

wow, a lot to blog about. first we went to MI for ian's 8th b-day. crazy that kid is 8 already, i know everyone one says that can't believe how time flies, kids get so big blah blah blah, i cannot believe he is 8. so we watched the buckeye game in michigan, pretty fun, probably because they won. then we all danced, well stacey and the kids started the dancing off. first off i never knew stacey was such a phil collins fan (i'm not sure anyone did, even herself) we all had fun dancing to him though. after the dance party and a good nights sleep, ok maybe not such a good nights sleep, keep in mind i was sleeping with two children. we headed out to Great Wolf Lodge. It was fun, the kids loved it. My kids are nuts in the pool, they really have no fear of the water which i like. Wyatt went down all the slides except for the ones they would not let him. I think some he didn't want to go down, but after a little push away he went. he did not always end at the bottom of the slid...

so i chopped my hair off again, i just sat down at steph's (my friend that owns alto capelli, a hair salon 216-228-0606) & told her to do what she wanted. i trust her, even though she did give me the state board haircut a few years back, ok maybe 10 years ago. the thing that i always can't get over when i get my hair cut off is i can't put it up. i hate it in my face when i am trying to work and stuff. so i put it up in this ponytail on top of my head today & grace said "mama i just have to take a picture of that crazy pony" she is obvoiusly the child of a scrapper. i like it though, this is a terrible picture but the haircut is good. anyway...i have not blogged in awhile, which is funny because i check all the other blogs out & find it so irritating when they are not updated. the difference being no one reads this blog and millions read the others. so it was graces 4th b-day 2 weeks ago, she had a princess party, the girls did dress up like princess...

i watched this movie again the other night with jim & kim (and random GIRLS that interrupted) it just made me like the guy even more then i already did. i kept telling jim he wrote that song hurt but me singing it just didnt remind him. so i added it here so all who read this can remember. johnny is looking bad here, but give the guy a break, he had been through a lot. scroll all the way down to the end of the blog so you can see the video, it's cool, his life. we could all be fortunate enough to have a video flashback of our own lives someday.

and that is what he will tell you! Yesterday was his party & boy did we have fun, yea we! i think mom had more fun then him! I have been working on my BPS class. I was 2 weeks behind but caught up, finally. This week is a self portrait, that is hard for me. Like alot of people i do not like pictures of me, i do not want to look at pictures of me, so therefor it will be VERY hard to scrap me. Maybe i will post it when i finish it, we will see if i like it. I also need to get started on my CJ album. I am excited for this project so i fully intend to get started with the album cover tomorrow night. I have chosen my theme, MUSIC. I have so many good songs that i just love. i decide when driving tonight, listening to my ipod very loud and singing at the top pf my lungs that was going to be the theme. This is how i work, i get a new song, i then download it and then play the life out of it for the next few weeks, then dont listen to it for awhile. I'm weird like that. Anyway when i ...

well i am a little back. i have not posted in forever, and it seems to be getting harder to do. Wyatt comes into the scrappin room, climbs up to the computer here, and picks off the keys on the keyboard so i am now missing the...O the D the : and the ". It becomes a little difficult to type when you have to stop to find those letter, & you don't realize how many times you use those letters. well since i have not posted in awhile here are some fun things. grace's first day of school! sorry, just can't figure out how to flip it! she was so funny when i was getting her ready that morning, she said to me seriously in her i am going to make you cry mom voice... "you will be ok mom, wyatt will be with you, i am only going to school for a little while, i am not going to college." thanks so much for your help grace. Then as i was leaving her there for the whole hour she calls me back into the room to tell me "now mama, if you miss me just draw a picture of m...
