A Long but GOOD Day

The Day started about 5am for me.. I just couldnt sleep and I was SURE the boys would be up early! At 6:30 I got up and my MIL got up at that time too.. I snuck in and got the boys up and the fun began..

The boys tore through things super fast! We got dressed and headed out to Hometown buffet for a Lunch I didnt have to cook! MIL and FIL headed home about 3pm.

We all instantly got in our comfort clothes and just chilled.. Im thinkin we shoulda taken the picture BEFORE we chilled! lol

any way.. here we are!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

From our home to yours.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Happy Thanksgiving

I know its a bit late.. but I dont care! lol

We had a very nice Thanksgiving.

I cooked (kinda!) and Cathy came over for dinner.

We didnt get pictures DURING the food fest

but the boys played around that night and we

got some cuties.

Just clowning around!

After a lazy day yesterday. They boys were off doing their own thing. Josh was in his room watching TV and Logan was in his room coloring. I decided to go lay down with Logan and see "whats up" After cuddling a bit.. I grabbed a crayon and was pretending to write on his face. I thought he would go NO NO NO NO but to my shock.. he said. FIX ME UP MOM!

Well the crayons were not working so I grabbed the washable markers and went to town. He had a great time.. and went and showed Josh. Well of course Josh wanted to be done up too!

Here they are sporting their new "DOs"!

Is this a GREAT GIFT or what??

My best gal pal has been in MO for the past 13-ish weeks.. and I was checking on her apt and getting her mail and stuff for her while she was gone (she lives a few blocks away)

I didnt know when she was coming home. We were out and about last night.. and when we came home there she was.. complete with this great basket for me!!

How cool is she?? The tops in my books!

JUST JUMP!

several months and a month worth of constant rain
and this is what you get

The boys are very proud and built the "Patch" a fence!

This one is the size of a large apple

TRADING CARDS!

I did this ATC for the DigiChick friendship day challenge.. Ive never done one before.. It was interesting anyway.. My card is as boring as me..lol oh well!

The boys will be going to grammas tomorrow.. for a week or so.. Hubby and I will have to return right away because I have to start back to school Tuesday.. The teacher I will be working with hasnt contacted me, so I dont know what we will be doing. She more then likely already has her classroom done.. shes kinda on the ball like that! SCAREY! Shes so gonna be sorry Im in there with her! cuz Im so NOT on the ball! Im sure it will be fine.. I just need to get started... and stop fretting about it..

ABOUT MY KITS

if you download my kits.. please read this!!
I knew I should have included my info on WHY my items are the size they are..
all my items can be ENLARGED to be used on things as large as 12x12 layouts! trust me!
I do my pages 12x12 and print them.. and they are fine, clear and not funky!
I do not ever send FULL SHEETS OF PAPER.. anything I have in my kit that looks like a paper.. is paper.. but you must have your image the size you want.. example.. 12x12.. then FILL the image with my square. then POOF you have a full sheet of paper with my dezign.. I make them all seemless so that when you fill something.. requardless of size.. it will fill and things will be fine! same with my ribbons and things.. ENLARGE THEM.. they work FINE!
One of my reasons for creating things a "medium" size is. I dont ONLY create for scrapbookers. I also do things for stat/tag creators (which I do also) and anyone else who uses them.. Personally I dont like when I get a kit.. and there is a 3600x3600 "paper" that is basically a big red square.. the size is huge and its useless.. you dont NEED that.. make a small one and FILL a size.. that keeps the kits small.. and the stuff useable to ALL.. not just digi scrappers.. If I were to make "distressed" paper.. with grunge and all that effect.. I would HAVE to make the paper full size.. but I dont make that kinda paper.. I hope that helps anyone who got my kits and said.. these are tiny.. and I cant use them.. YOU CAN USE THEM AND THEY ARE FINE!!!! hehehe..
just ENLARGE!!!!!!! all mine to date have printed fine.. with no distortion..
THANK YOU for the lady who took the time to write to me.. as if there is one person who feels this way.. there was surely a few more. I just wanted to make sure you all knew.. all these work with 12x12 pages!

LEAPIN LIZARDS!

Im sure yall are wondering what is up with the colors huh?

well.. Josh couldnt decide on which suit he wanted to buy.. either a mint green or a pink one after a few days of flip flopping back and forth.. and a vote from gramma.. he decided on PINK!

so that is why these colors. The boys chased this tiny lizard till I thought it was going to have a heart attack! POOR THING!

SPLASH!

I saw this layout on The Digi Chick and just fell in love with it and KNEW that I had the perfect picture for it! I hope the lady that I scraplifted this from is honored and not mad!

AT WHAT POINT?

So Ive been wondering.. at what point do you try and SELL your goodies?
Ive been keeping track of my downloads.. and so far .. to date.. my kits have been downloaded a total of 2665 times.. now if I were to sell these.. lets say.. for $4.99 (im just grabbing a #) that would be $13,298.35 bucks.. now that is for the last ....hmm.. 2 weeks! HECK even if I only got ONE BUCK for each download.. id be jumpin for joy! As a EA for the public schools here. I bring home on average about $250 a week.. SCAREY I KNOW!! selling online is my passion... I was a Ebay junkie before going to work at my boys school.. but even there.. I didnt bring hom 2,000 bucks a week.. so ... now..... HOW do I go about selling? should I sell? at what point does one decide? I feel funny even "talking" here.. no one seems to leave comments..lol I KNOW YOUR VISITING!! I see my counter going up by leaps and bounds.. but no one says anything! Im so lonely! ok.. that was my thought of the day..

PIGGIN OUT!

My son was so cute eating strawberries and cream.. I just HAD to take a picture!

REHERSAL

My latest layout.. using my latest kit!

I LOVE the alpha I made.. its so neat!

PURE FUN KIT!!

I just finished this kit.. In hopes that I would be scarpping with it this weekend!
I think hubby is taking the boys to their gramma either this weekend or next weekend. MAYBE then I will get to scrap!!

Josh and I start to the car.. DOWN POUR! lol Im not leaving the house today.. Im not sure what my sign is.. but I obviously need to be wet to see it!!

I get the boys all open and ready to go.. get mine all open and off we go to the car.. we get to the car and .. ................................... .............. YEP..

LONG DAY

They boys and I spent the day cleaning up the house.. My brother and his family are here visiting.. They didnt arrive until about 6pm.. and now I get to play Auntie! My brother and his wife went to the movies.. so now Im watching their 2 boys.. TJ (4 I think - 2nd time Ive ever met him) and Donivan(7 months - also 2nd time to ever meet) The baby is sleeping.. well... like a BABY! and TJ.. wellllllllllll.. he has been up, down, and in 3 different sleeping sections so far.. I just put him back to bed for the 9 millionth time.. he had to have some pudding.. (he didnt eat dinner) Josh gave out not long after bed time. I kept hearing TJ yell.. "you alright down there Josh?" Logan is trying his best to just fall asleep.. but TJ is making sure he doesnt have his eyes closed for too long! Hopefully my brother gets home soon! We started this "bedtime" at 9pm. its now 11:25. Im ready for bed!!! lol
They did warn me though.. this was TJ's first sleep over.. so I was ready!

TOO MUCH TIME

Ok this is my 2nd day of being a bloggie hoggie and I see that it is going to take more time then I thought!
Im enjoying it though.. so I guess its OK.. Once I figure out how to do all the editing and playing that I see everwhere I will be good to go!

All of my living room furniture is in the kitchen!
My brother and his family are coming sometime in the next few days and we thought we had bettter get at least the living room carpet cleaned (they have a baby)
I cant really clean the rest of the house (ok thats a bold face LIE! lol) but its hard with stuff from all rooms all over the place. I hope to get all the furniture back in place tonight when hubby gets home from work. The boys think they have died and gone to hell.. They cant get to the kitchen!!!! They are use to treking in there about every 5 mins for something!

Here is my first kit I ever made..
