One More Week To Go...

till we leave for beautiful, sunny, sandy beaches in Hawaii. Yeah! I hope to keep blogging from there, but don't hate me if I slack off a bit...

Well, since the accident last week I've been driving our truck. Hate that thing, it's a pain to park, a pain to get into, guzzles gas like camel in the desert and I hate loading groceries and Grace in it.

On Tuesday we had appointments at the Dentist for our whole family. We are happy to report that there were no cavities for any of us....Wow! Grace had a blast, I think she especially loved wearing the cool sunglasses.

I have been trying to eat more of these...on the advice of my *due any day now* hairdresser Glenda. She ate them to stop these pesky leg cramps that most pregnant women suffer from during the second half of their pregnancy. I love the way they look, smell and I am a humongous fan of banana bread, especially with chocolate chips in it. However, I despise bananas. The texture makes me want to gag, they coat your teeth with this yucky stuff and it just feels gross. Does anyone have any other suggestions for leg cramps, anything but eating raw bananas??? Please???

The other morning I woke up and sitting at the breakfast table looked up and saw this out of our window. I quickly grabbed my camera and shot off a few pic's. What a gorgeous view...

On Friday I had a helper during my quick stop at the local grocery store. She offered to write out my shopping list all by herself and then even read it back to my in the store. She is getting so good at all this. It's scary how fast she is absorbing how to read and put letter sounds together to form new words. Tonight when I put her to bed she read almost a whole chapter of one of her Backyardigan story books all by herself.

On Saturday Martin took Gracie with him on some jobs and to pick up some gifts for a birthday party she was invited to. That left me most of the day to putz around my scrapbook studio cleaning up and toward late afternoon even putting together some pages. It felt so good to be creating something for me again. Over the last few months I've just been working on Christmas gifts and cards and I felt very drained, creatively. I cleaned off my desk and got to work. Hopefully this will allow me to work on my Project 365 while I am in Hawaii...

Playing Around with Digital Pages

I am a paper scrapper through & through. I don't think that I'd ever quit totally and become a complete digi scrapper. However, the process intrigues me and I love playing with digital images and putting stuff together.
Here is my latest:
It's a freebie layout from Jessica Sprague, who's starting a free digital photo editing course on Monday and I can't wait...
