Happy Birthday Nate and some cards!

Happy Belated Birthday to my Dear Husband Nate! He turned 31 on Monday and caught up to me now!!! :) Here is a picture I took of him and Noah 2 weeks ago when they went hunting! Happy Birthday Honey!!

Things continue to be crazy busy here! I have so much going on I feel like I can't get anything done! I can't wait until Nates bookkeeper is back so I can stop "helping out" at the store. She had to have a second knee surgery and probably won't be back until the first of the year. Its just getting in the way of things I had planned and things I could have done. A friend asked me to run to Target with her the other morning and I had to say no :(

We had a very nice Thanksgiving weekend hanging out and seeing our families! I went shopping and got TONS done for Christmas!! We came home and put up our lights outside and put our tree up!
There was no sketch on Sketch This this week because of Thanksgiving and I didn't have much time for scrapping but I wanted to share these cards I did.

Thanks for stopping by my blog! Have a wonderful week! :)

Sketch This 35 and Thanksgiving!

Here is my layout for Sketch This! #35-- it is such a great sketch! I had this layout done the night I got the sketch!! The title says.... 'Not your ordinary Smile'. Noah was/is still a little self-conscious about how he looks with out teeth-- ( I never knew boys would worry about such things) So I keep getting these silly smiles!
We are headed north for Thanksgiving so I won't be around all weekend. I know I have a TON of catching up to do on your blogs---this working everyday stuff is not good on my internet time ;)

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!! Although this isn't our best of years, we still have so much to be Thankful for and I feel blessed!! Take care and have a blessed Holiday!

Happy Birthday Noah!!!!!

Here is my sweet SEVEN year old boy today!! I can't believe how time flys!! I can't believe you are seven years old! Happy Birthday my sweet boy! I am sooo proud of the person you are, and the person you will grow up to be-- but some days I just want to cry and tell you to SLOW DOWN!!!

Have you checked out Sketch This today? Sketch #34 is live today and here is my layout for it:

Loved the sketch and love all the glitter on this page (you can't see it super good in the picture)

Last week was so busy here!! Between working for Nates store, and me getting strep ( I was miserable) to Noah's first sleepover! It was a busy Week! Instead of a birthday party Noah wanted his first sleepover. He had a wonderful time having a friend sleep over. We took the kids to the casino arcade and then to Pizza Hut. They stayed up til 11:00!!!

I also had a great time on Saturday meeting up with some scrappy friends---Sara, Jess, Becky and La. I had a great time scrapping and hanging out with you, hope we do it again soon!! :D

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

Sketch This #33

Loved this weeks sketch!! I've had these pictures of Noah sitting on my desk for a couple weeks! I LOVE LOVE this paper in the Rockstar stack by DCVW!
I had a busy weekend, my mom surprised me by deciding to drive down and spend the night with me. I was so happy because Nate was out of town and I hate staying alone! I am still helping Nate out at the store, I got ALOT done today and should have fast day tomorrow! I am missing my scrapping though and have a lot to get done before Christmas.

Thats all for now, have a GREAT week. Don't forget to pop on over to SKETCH THIS and check out the sketch!

Halloween and stuff

Happy Halloween (a day late)--Things have been crazy busy here. I have been helping Nate at the store and I forgot what its like to work and still have to take care of everything here. I am way behind on laundry, my house is a mess and we forgot what day it was! On October 30th I worked super late, got home put the kids to bed and realized it was Oct. 30-- and OMG we didn't even carve our pumpkin yet!!! I woke the kids up at 9:00 and had them carve a pumpkin. ARGH, I am a bad mom! I knew we wouldn't have time on Halloween day so it was our only chance and of course I didn't want to miss photo opportunities!

We had a nice Halloween day, We all go out trick or treating together. Every Halloween seems to get cold. It was warm (60's) the days before and of course Halloween comes and its 45 and windy! We also went to a Halloween party and didn't get home until after the kids bedtime--oh well aren't they cute:

Here is my layout for SKETCH THIS #32 Lovin using all these sketches, they are really helping me get some layouts done! Let me know if you use the sketch, I'd love to see your layout!

I am still helping Nate for the next couple of weeks probably but I'll try to be around a little more often, I miss hanging out at Freak and miss my online pals! :) Thanks for stopping by!!
