Off I go...

Tonight I am off to CKC-Manchester for the weekend! Woohoo! I'm SO looking forward to the little getaway with my friends! I will probably come back to a trashed house, but who really cares?!

I realized that my CT call deadline is tomorrow as well....hmmm...so I won't be able to review all of the applications until I get back on Sunday. Then I will hopefully be posting the new team on my blog in the next few days! Yeah!

Have a GREAT weekend!!!

Mom by day, Cheesesteak stealer by night!

Yes, it's true...I "technically" stole a cheesesteak tonight.
Not intentionally mind you.
See, this is what happens when I hang out with my little brother!
It was innocent enough...
I took him to get his hair cut, so he'd be all pretty for Christina tomorrow night when they go to the Senior Ball (she's graduating from Undergrad!). Then we decided to grab some late dinner.
We placed our orders, then sat down to chat it up like a couple of chicks! (hee hee)
They call out some number, "YADDA YADDA" (that's pretty much what we heard)
So Joey snags the food and we start eating.
That's when I realize THEY got MY order wrong!
"I didn't order a cheesesteak!", but I figure, hey whatever...it's late...I'm not gonna bother them about making me a new sandwich....I guess they're just really proud of their cheesesteaks!
WRONG!
Later on a man comes in TO PICK UP his order.....
YUP, the order WE took! Ugh! I felt SOOOO badly! But we couldn't stop laughing at the whole thing! (oh, and we aren't THAT bad...we did tell them about the mixed up order before that guy showed up).
Sorry Mr. Cheesesteak Man, it was an accident, I swear!

Tomorrow's Charity Crop Day!

I can't believe it's almost time! It just seemed like I had SO much time til the event and now all of the sudden...it's TOMORROW! haha How did that happen!? I'm SO excited, but SO tired from packing raffles and goodie bags all week. I'm not use to going to bed at midnight anymore! Fingers crossed we raise LOTS of money for the CCFA...for those of you JUST tuning in... I'm doing this crop (IRL) to raise money for the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America. My son, Josh was diagnosed w/ Colitis on his 3rd bday, so now I do all that I can to raise money for research and hopefully to find a cure. It's going to be a fun day of scrappin', FOOD, massage, and LOTS of laughter! I can NOT wait! :)
PS....the Creative Team call is still on...about a week left til decision time! Lots of wonderful scrappers....it's going to be SO difficult deciding on just a few!
PPS...have you entered my YOU Design It Contest yet?!!?!? There are some good entries already, don't miss your chance to have your dream kit designed!!! :)
...Commercial over.... hee hee
Oh, one more PS....my DH loved his anniversary present! And I MUST say, that it look unbelieveably super perfect all matted and framed up!!! :) xoox

Day 1 (aka Day 15)

I'm back on Rhonna's 21 Day Challenge! I thought I could do it on my own, but boy was it easy to skip a day here and there w/o anyone watching over me! This time around, my goal is to work out, in some form, EVERY day. Let's see how it goes. Yesterday was my first day and I met my goal for the day! This entry is about how I make a million excuses on why I don't stick to things....It's too hard....I don't have time...I can't do it.....It's ALL in my head!!!! :)
Products used: All created by me, Lauren Reid...Paper & flower stamp: from my Mahalo Kit, Doodle stitches: coming soon to the Divine Digital Store, box around "all": from my Scratchy Doodles {Boxes} set.

New Kits & Spring has finally arrived!

Okay, seriously, it's May and yesterday was the FIRST warm day we've felt yet! I guess that's what you get for livining in New England! The boys were happy beyond words to be able to run around barefoot outside and eat dinner on the deck again! Jessica is still adjusting to the "terrain" of our yard...flat areas are few and far between! ahah She just had that look on her face like, what the heck is up with this floor?! hee hee

In design news, Down Cape II is up in the Divine Digital Boutique and these Scratchy Doodle -Sentiments should be up today!

In other Design News...I think I might put out a Creative Team call. I just don't have a ton of time to create layouts with my designs and would love to see them "in action". I'll update on that when I figure out the details.

Today, we are off to a playdate....picture it: 3 sets of twins (that's SIX 4 1/2 year olds!), 2 babies and 3 scrappy moms! What a site! These kids are just the cutest...they have literally grown up together...and are more like a bunch of siblings than friends! ahah

New Kit, Double Ear Infections & a Marker

Lovely title, right?! :) It's been an eventful TWO days!
COMING SOON to the
Digital Divine Store...


Onto the poor baby w/ the ear infections...
I'm seriously NOT winning any awards for best mom these days! Jessica had double ear infections 3 weeks ago and then I thought was better, but the past few days was still slightly "off", but not so much that I thought she was sick. So I took her in for a sick visit and...
DOUBLE EAR INFECTIONS again! So she's juiced up on medicine to fix those up. She was already super perky tonight, so I think we'll be able to cure it this time around. Phew!

The marker.
Oh my sweet little Josh. Hmm...I tell the short version of this story..basically he was in a tear w/ Justin and ended up in time out to "take a break" as we say. He ends up storming upstairs and says, "I'm going to my room!" "Fine", I thought......then all of the sudden, my sweet little angel comes over to me and tugs on my hands and says, "Come on Mom, come look!" With a HUGE smile on his face! I said, "Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"...."GOOD!" (more big smiles)...
He wrote ALL over the wall going up our staircase from the basement to the first floor!!!
ORANGE MARKER!
...yeah......
Fingers crossed I can get it off the walls! Grrr!
