So I am sending out this invitation to join me on my new blog <strong>Carrie's Creative Home</strong>. What will be different on my new blog - well I plan on sharing more of my interests rather than just my crafts and Project Life project. Who knows I may even put together a schedule of post for each day of the week, but you won't know unless you come and visit me there. Thanks for all the support for Carrie's Craft Room and I am looking forward to my new journey at <strong>Carrie's Creative Home.</strong><br />

Summer Time<br />
<br />
Everyone who knows me knows that I love, love, love summer. There is no other time of the year that I can say I feel this way about. I love the warm weather, spending time out side and enjoying the simple things that go on around me in summer. I'm able to truly slow the pace down in my house and really enjoy being present in my life.<br />
<br />
Summer time allows me to be an observer of our lives. I get to see my children at their stage of life and sometimes that makes me reflect back to when I was their age. <br />
<br />
I love the fact that I scrapbook and that I can tell my stories through pictures and that one day my children can reflect on their childhood and compare them as I am doing now. I look at this picture and a flood gate of memories comes to my mind. I love that my children are sharing in the same activities I've done in my past. When I look at this picture I can see myself at her age fishing with my father. It's funny how the past repeats it's self. My daughter loved every minute of fishing with her father just as I did way back when. I love summer time so much because the everyday schedule gets thrown out the window and I am able to be present in my children's life. I love that she will have memories of going to the cottage and fishing with her dad like I had with my dad. Those times spent with my dad shaped me into the person I am today just like I know that my daughter will gain the same from her time spent with her dad too. It's nice to slow down every once in awhile and sit back and reflect on the past and to see how it's connected to the present.<br />

Project Life - June 2011<br />
<br />
June was full of activities; my son's graduation party, soccer camp, our annual trip to the drive inn for father's day, visits from out of town guest, parties, swimming lessons, trips to the zoo and Morton Arboretum.<br />

Life seems to be flying so fast here in my house. I fell off the Project Life wagon back in April and I have to omit its been hard to get back on that wagon. So I'm attempting to try to catch everything up by doing it by months instead of weeks. <br />

Project Life - May 2011<br />

Big milestone for my son. He graduated High School and this August he will be heading out for college. <br />

<b>Also in May</b> I decided to reorganize my craftroom. I added a few more shelves, a wrapping paper station, pictures, a shinny new red desk, made a shelve to hold all my copic pens, added bars to hold my punches, found an old cassette holder at Goodwill and decided to use it to hold all my ink pads but my most favorite addition to my craftroom is my mother's old sewing machine. She gave it to me because she doesn't think she will be sewing any more. This is the same machine I used to watch her make my clothes and stuff animals on when I was a kid. I am so happy she decided to pass it on to me. <br />
<br />
Stay tuned tomorrow for some more Project Life catch ups. Until then thanks for stopping by.<br />

I fell off the Project Life wagonIt's been three weeks since I've been able to do my Project life. It feels like something has been missing, but I vow that I will catch up after my life gets back to normal. What's not normal in my life right now that is keeping me away from Project life is LIFE - Here at the O'Connor's house I am getting ready for the biggest milestone of my son's life high school graduation. Yup this coming up weekend my first born is walking down that aisle to receive his diploma. I've been so busy getting my house ready for the party that we are throwing him. I think as a mom that not only is this a big milestone for my son but for me as well. Anyone who has a teenager will probably say the same. I feel like I've been through a battle field (getting my son through high school and ready for college)and this weekend we both will reach the other side together in one piece. I've been in the mist of remodeling a kitchen and decorating and painting and shopping. It's been a whirl wind and I'm so exhausted truly. As this week comes to a end I guess in a way I can say my life will be back to normal. <br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRDgstIVtTvpaIZh23k7KufsspEwyvR_C-MiIFL6dpkeo2LI6tUMSrn9XNJQMAU9cDZX-aHeNXm42Y-nlkwzQr9oEqduyYC4sJlvtQOgo9Rf-qCG3RExTi4FHoc4MfZsUrMaqH9tL4sLqJ/s1600/wallart1danny.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 375px; height: 318px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRDgstIVtTvpaIZh23k7KufsspEwyvR_C-MiIFL6dpkeo2LI6tUMSrn9XNJQMAU9cDZX-aHeNXm42Y-nlkwzQr9oEqduyYC4sJlvtQOgo9Rf-qCG3RExTi4FHoc4MfZsUrMaqH9tL4sLqJ/s400/wallart1danny.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5609879468943723954" /></a><br /><br />I am so excited for my son and all he has accomplished. I am extremely proud of him and wish him good luck on his next journey in life (college). As a mom to a incredible son it's been kind of hard to loosen the grip I've had on him since he was a baby in my arms but I know in my heart I did everything I could to prepare him to go out and start his new life on his own. <br /><br />I was thinking back to the time when I took him home from the hospital I can not imagine back then anyone could have prepare me for what has taken place through out his 18 years. I was advised way back then that the hardest part of being a mother is with each milestone that our children hit we as mothers we have to let a little part of them go in order for them to grow. I'm proud of where that has lead us but I am sadden by the fact that I know it's time to let a little part of him go in order for him to grow. This is one of the toughest milestones I've been through as his mom. <br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/215/32D5122017E809CFC2F356F0ABBC0353.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4661814546896072369.post-30788667307872508192011-04-28T07:35:00.003-05:002011-04-28T07:51:57.319-05:00Big Blog candyMust see blog candy at Skip to my Lou's blog <a href="http://skiptomylou.org/">here</a><br />Today she is giving away a chance to win a Cricut Imagine.

Coloring eggs, finding eggs, and let's not forget about the baskets. I have to omit it was a challenge to color the eggs this year without having a sink or counter tops in my kitchen but we made the best of it. This year the Easter bunny was very generous not only did the kids receive a basket but hubby even got one. I think he was so surprised by it. Since we did not have a kitchen that was in working order we went to my mother-in-laws for Easter dinner. It was such a nice long weekend because the kids were off the Friday before Easter and the following Monday.

I want to break up with you. I think you knew that this day had to come too. To tell you the truth you really were never my type and the fact that I was force into this relationship makes me kind of resentful towards you. We both now that this relationship was never going to go on forever. So I must say good bye to you. I wish you luck at the garbage dump!<br /><br />Truly<br />Carrie <br /><br />Seriously this week was a lot of hard work. We're doing a little update in my kitchen and I'm so excited to get rid of my old counter top. This week was all about clearing out the cabinets, tearing apart the counter tops, lots of shopping for material and renting tools, but in the long run I know all this hard work will pay off when I see my new counter top. My brother and parents came over to help us tear it out and even my daughter helped to. <br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnl-DQWGZCgRFzzU3AFSzXxbDoP_CvSdjt2r3N_PfBQnL_zqxNad-tsMZuNtpKEjmjBpAhYrNcUyUEQ2F8N3tOOaJ7jzqjcXiJZXj1TnH5dFlC3Z6dtFNB_rlOZoMxFTvuhrogyHwiyPYr/s1600/DSC05895.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnl-DQWGZCgRFzzU3AFSzXxbDoP_CvSdjt2r3N_PfBQnL_zqxNad-tsMZuNtpKEjmjBpAhYrNcUyUEQ2F8N3tOOaJ7jzqjcXiJZXj1TnH5dFlC3Z6dtFNB_rlOZoMxFTvuhrogyHwiyPYr/s400/DSC05895.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599767347080098418" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNpip0di5e4onELi9W4_A01tXRsr4q7OzpYlJ6mh7gEOFOdtSM8b7XwpuhQfrc7uunJF8-Wo7L40kqbSViGfBsqo0WW3gX5W5kksd27MbxW8pPYU-FQlQd3xzL6ZRl-OnyLe9Z0liwpq_u/s1600/DSC05896.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNpip0di5e4onELi9W4_A01tXRsr4q7OzpYlJ6mh7gEOFOdtSM8b7XwpuhQfrc7uunJF8-Wo7L40kqbSViGfBsqo0WW3gX5W5kksd27MbxW8pPYU-FQlQd3xzL6ZRl-OnyLe9Z0liwpq_u/s400/DSC05896.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599767681910155074" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtMgWXC4Ltx-sX7Dico5pCGGDlJk6zoU1lB0XmZHyJNUwGyEUKSdpJDRufEPRXl_5tUdk2rwzbeFZlCdXC2bZ15rUuZoPdBoRHvdOHkuTZjvLOdG5pfKhiDukMWQxyHH7w7m1DGVFGMuHL/s1600/DSC05897.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtMgWXC4Ltx-sX7Dico5pCGGDlJk6zoU1lB0XmZHyJNUwGyEUKSdpJDRufEPRXl_5tUdk2rwzbeFZlCdXC2bZ15rUuZoPdBoRHvdOHkuTZjvLOdG5pfKhiDukMWQxyHH7w7m1DGVFGMuHL/s400/DSC05897.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599769246141938690" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSWqT0KeebKMLtFY6yXrnXVOz2TWMu7pwVAncVj1dBoKmMQXRf46249qyYAU0ahaVXx7JWPNkwJkeZKAHzdCuQHwa2v5FLuqZY0irlev_zvYQm_0Uh3Oov6OZuVHvdj8xQR-yr2ZQWpYvm/s1600/DSC05894.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSWqT0KeebKMLtFY6yXrnXVOz2TWMu7pwVAncVj1dBoKmMQXRf46249qyYAU0ahaVXx7JWPNkwJkeZKAHzdCuQHwa2v5FLuqZY0irlev_zvYQm_0Uh3Oov6OZuVHvdj8xQR-yr2ZQWpYvm/s400/DSC05894.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599767833088482882" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZAYPJMmRhU6Je0aedtnwd3G2YC7LrvIq3-SLz-B6nFqZIAz_e6DQVyN8DunEm_k6SZkOSfeRWR7AgHtryzmMigtPPECsg-MEVzGotcLmgz-bHfjcMP5yPsPlzPNtkg44vtatS0fAmOXf0/s1600/DSC05899.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZAYPJMmRhU6Je0aedtnwd3G2YC7LrvIq3-SLz-B6nFqZIAz_e6DQVyN8DunEm_k6SZkOSfeRWR7AgHtryzmMigtPPECsg-MEVzGotcLmgz-bHfjcMP5yPsPlzPNtkg44vtatS0fAmOXf0/s400/DSC05899.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599767963379703074" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSjrP0idsGUZzomsJQnaTvViWlJDPWsI-gf6G0NOwHOawTgHInkwFEgmoYL1jbWVCHtngZX80mgdktXZBGH-0989cR7z1kYBB2s6S0c5RgALK2nKyG1MIEVbfwtzgehIaSpnq7wBcVn46k/s1600/DSC05898.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSjrP0idsGUZzomsJQnaTvViWlJDPWsI-gf6G0NOwHOawTgHInkwFEgmoYL1jbWVCHtngZX80mgdktXZBGH-0989cR7z1kYBB2s6S0c5RgALK2nKyG1MIEVbfwtzgehIaSpnq7wBcVn46k/s400/DSC05898.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5599767563256135826" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/215/32D5122017E809CFC2F356F0ABBC0353.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4661814546896072369.post-25931092330156574022011-04-20T22:39:00.002-05:002011-04-20T23:00:04.447-05:00MIASo sorry I've been MIA but life around here has been busy. We've been working on updating our kitchen and I'm sure that anyone that has been through a kitchen remodel knows how crazy it can get and fast. Right now I've been trying to get the house ready for my son's upcoming graduation party. (Where's the time gone can't believe he is graduating HS). I've been running all around town in search of cabinet handles, the perfect bedding, frames and etc... I've also have been given my mom's sewing machine (on loan) and I've been working on some small projects. I'm in the process of making a window cushion for my DD room (Finally found the perfect fabric today at Hobby Lobby). I made travel bags for my parents for helping us rip out our counters in the kitchen. Also, I'm looking for the perfect fabric to go with the new comforter set I purchase for the master room so I can replace my curtains in there. I've been trying to hit up all the thrift shop around here to find some great accessories for my room and DD room (which always means re purposing things). In the mist of all this I made the save the date card for my son's graduation party (they turned out better than I thought they would). Another project I'm working on is a photo gallery for our up stair hallway. I've scored some awesome frames from Goodwill a few weeks back. I've also been busy redoing my craft room. Let's just say today I finally hit the wall I'm so tired that I can't even think straight so I decided to just relax and catch up on some of my favorite blogs out there. I promise once my house is back in order I'll share some pics of all my projects with you all until then hope you're having a wonderful day!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/215/32D5122017E809CFC2F356F0ABBC0353.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4661814546896072369.post-27207457842794609142011-04-14T07:50:00.007-05:002011-04-14T08:04:58.817-05:00Project Life - week 14<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihTOI5_fjzmERCBXaSW91YRg6CxyFeY7N3aSNDAU0cEkia5iJwEq8UDMDNgxTR2BmDZr3lPdIboFpkGwOc5XXSS-ML59q332ffIiKZ6gXDB9JH4nsul9Da0ubsHvV-GvCL6DfZUw5Aj5gt/s1600/PL-Tuesday+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 350px; height: 274px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihTOI5_fjzmERCBXaSW91YRg6CxyFeY7N3aSNDAU0cEkia5iJwEq8UDMDNgxTR2BmDZr3lPdIboFpkGwOc5XXSS-ML59q332ffIiKZ6gXDB9JH4nsul9Da0ubsHvV-GvCL6DfZUw5Aj5gt/s400/PL-Tuesday+copy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5595422968030475842" /></a><br /><br />Week - Fourteen<br /><br />Oh where oh where can my camera battery be ..... hmmm? This week wasn't such a good week for this project my camera battery seems to be missing, but you know me that doesn't stop me I'm a scrapbooker I find ways around camera issues. Thank god for my Iphone or else we wouldn't have any pictures this week. Week fourteen was full of fun things such as ice cream, horse back riding lessons and a trip to the park. The weather has been beautiful this week so we went out to enjoy it. Oh by the way I couldn't get the Iphone to take a good picture of my pages in the project life book so this week we will use this format. Off to find my camera battery wish me luck!<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitrwt7FDJqVQYLsAjyUMKPc4X7ZQ_XdhZtIwmUjVux3ZbLwQVo5kO8jPtEEBM6Eg39EDzu1hCQywY753ImtMUaMZW6nzYBxGHrbtHTVM6bCt4JN22qJ_CZsFuoDCxtFDlsj7AVlg7DsUWT/s1600/117+-+Copy.JPG"><img style="display:block;

Unfortunately, we were not able to do it this year due to my kitchen being remodeled. I had appliances and work men in and out of my house for the first part of the week. However, I just couldn't let spring break go by and not at least do something special for her so we took off to the zoo on Thurs. We had the best time together laughing, talking and just enjoying a beautiful spring day at the zoo. When my husband found out the we went to the zoo he wanted to get in on the fun so on Saturday the three of us headed to our down town area and we looked at all the shops and stopped in at the most wonderful cafe that serves nothing but deserts and chocolate (Yum). We were all excited when we stumbled upon on new toy store where we bought a really fun game. After a long day enjoying the shops we head back to the house to pick up my son and we went out to our favorite pizza place for dinner.<br />Then we went back home to play our new game we picked up earlier. It was such a great week family wise and I can't wait for my kitchen to be finished. <br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsLJl3DttKS5O2Kdt2z8eKnVJO000JyVnEKQaDuNBtZ9VfhmWZj5UtjwubTMs5Dt_b069pCHaN0GX81f7AUh5_PhNYddfQ-5lX5CKfIYfAF71KqIgDJZ7VLd3Ufo_dYwnNHHEEu5KMyFQN/s1600/PL-Tuesday+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 350px; height: 274px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsLJl3DttKS5O2Kdt2z8eKnVJO000JyVnEKQaDuNBtZ9VfhmWZj5UtjwubTMs5Dt_b069pCHaN0GX81f7AUh5_PhNYddfQ-5lX5CKfIYfAF71KqIgDJZ7VLd3Ufo_dYwnNHHEEu5KMyFQN/s400/PL-Tuesday+copy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592173879675614050" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEintMaapsXAM0RrKmAd8Gu8Ryf7gLQoMzBSvmiVOuwnZf9bWpJTxmLRTeJbJAWh2cpFAD8cpI2OURMpjKoVbUqqsjDLnM1XZtyaeIHjciovfpnpb373BDbjJDTbx5JVoflsTCd-ZVkPfOWt/s1600/DSC05884.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEintMaapsXAM0RrKmAd8Gu8Ryf7gLQoMzBSvmiVOuwnZf9bWpJTxmLRTeJbJAWh2cpFAD8cpI2OURMpjKoVbUqqsjDLnM1XZtyaeIHjciovfpnpb373BDbjJDTbx5JVoflsTCd-ZVkPfOWt/s400/DSC05884.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592173648239697298" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD89w_reZNiZRgtLTsU7xyn5LFI3AHRjsQfi3eVD5Ovu2z9dMzHNk1t1ubxvsp4m1coExYECgn5gddG3mdJh56BJukpRtGttkhiJGlj_NAWffe-SZmU284SuL51g4G2rDa93BFM6a2yyKW/s1600/DSC05885.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiD89w_reZNiZRgtLTsU7xyn5LFI3AHRjsQfi3eVD5Ovu2z9dMzHNk1t1ubxvsp4m1coExYECgn5gddG3mdJh56BJukpRtGttkhiJGlj_NAWffe-SZmU284SuL51g4G2rDa93BFM6a2yyKW/s400/DSC05885.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592173558550290386" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQEW6JMxSIzsoOJdFpwFp5GBBVWYJjL6RF8xX5FzeJv4xzC3_f6i0WNOsuNYYz6WCLWyq-KX9Pghv_RVFly7asXcw8vd3bjUWNgDKK5aVUx-VdgIHr87yn4_J38SZIZvgwYYwwcD1gi_1M/s1600/DSC05886.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQEW6JMxSIzsoOJdFpwFp5GBBVWYJjL6RF8xX5FzeJv4xzC3_f6i0WNOsuNYYz6WCLWyq-KX9Pghv_RVFly7asXcw8vd3bjUWNgDKK5aVUx-VdgIHr87yn4_J38SZIZvgwYYwwcD1gi_1M/s400/DSC05886.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592173477813253202" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsutObf6rskAgaKzJ2TkZJ0D8RiuPzPpp5PffsKPSLDyKyk-8PpX-OXOUnQtpEtrI-i95c6dGNn4a0v8JNPV4-bVeWzdOhDn0wnNFlFKpcl_zCSrwyRGje5Mf4ePaTsquFITS-MBYsnEEU/s1600/DSC05887.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsutObf6rskAgaKzJ2TkZJ0D8RiuPzPpp5PffsKPSLDyKyk-8PpX-OXOUnQtpEtrI-i95c6dGNn4a0v8JNPV4-bVeWzdOhDn0wnNFlFKpcl_zCSrwyRGje5Mf4ePaTsquFITS-MBYsnEEU/s400/DSC05887.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5592173379344025170" /></a><br /><br />I took my new camera lens to the zoo with us to test it out.

This project was so huge that I had to call out the big guns (that's right GRANDMA!) Imagine your sweet daughter/son coming home all excited bursting to tell you all about their new project that they have to do at school. The conversation started something like this,<br /><br />Daughter: "Mom Mom guess what we are going to do at school after spring break"<br /><br />My response: " I don't know but by the looks of your happiness it must be something good", <br /><br />Daughter: "Ya we are going to make our classroom into the rain forest and we get to pick an animal and make a presentation about the animal we choice"<br /><br />My response: "Oh how exciting you love animals this sounds like something you'll be good at.<br /><br />Daughter: "But I need your help" <br /><br />My response: "Sure I would love to help, do you need me to help you research about different animals in the rain forest?"<br /><br />Daughter: " No - I need you to help me make a animal"<br /><br />My response: " Oh so you need to draw or look for pictures for this?<br /><br />Daughter: "No - We each got to pick an animal and we have to make it 3-d life size.<br /><br />My response: "WHAT" " <br /><br />Daughter: "Guess what animal I picked?"<br /><br />My response: " A frog?????"<br /><br />Daughter: "No a Jaguar"<br /><br />My response: "WHAT" How are we going to do that?"<br /><br />Daughter: "Out of Paper Mac he"<br /><br />My response: "I don't know how to do that"<br /><br />Daughter: "Call grandma she'll know"<br /><br />So I listened to my wise young daughter and picked up the phone and called Grandma. I begged her to come out and help us with this project and she ended up staying five days with us in order to complete this project. (thanks mom you are a life saver). So in case one of your lovely children come running up to you all excited I thought I would share with you how I tackled this project and since this project last five days and I didn't get to do much of anything else we will be included it as this week for project life. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5x_9XId4bhZj-BrBQ1LFI7rg6kNGNuJJBQGB69klq3I2uJ2Q4HBategXkS7IhPzReQERTTUT88EVRvtaeH41EYGsrRgwSPUViuI8lOOfLmOqm3Y3TdcXof9vZPNnCDPMOWepzWBwSU2Dm/s1600/DSC05811.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5x_9XId4bhZj-BrBQ1LFI7rg6kNGNuJJBQGB69klq3I2uJ2Q4HBategXkS7IhPzReQERTTUT88EVRvtaeH41EYGsrRgwSPUViuI8lOOfLmOqm3Y3TdcXof9vZPNnCDPMOWepzWBwSU2Dm/s400/DSC05811.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589871235525995986" /></a><br />Grandma to the rescue!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUJPcdl27Px0i0z1fiDxy228aURH2OGG7IVkI8H-SYwzje-5KODp89k9wB0I8cO-OxpRD54xnbXGW_SzWrU8vBfdtybVDECGdlby0DisqXXdTAWIg9gkJZmwFv6PCMWGL1uz70uT5SZePD/s1600/DSC05842.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUJPcdl27Px0i0z1fiDxy228aURH2OGG7IVkI8H-SYwzje-5KODp89k9wB0I8cO-OxpRD54xnbXGW_SzWrU8vBfdtybVDECGdlby0DisqXXdTAWIg9gkJZmwFv6PCMWGL1uz70uT5SZePD/s400/DSC05842.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589871127221409906" /></a><br /><br />OK first I search the Internet to find a picture of Jaguar that was standing side ways and printed out on my home printer.

You need to wait for each layer to dry before you start the next layer. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcAvKvcIOQ0RTOokP9b0fuLzPLMfSPiJ8aaTafn8YBAO0CDB-CV4ZSdN44mZng5QQ1GnCWgTnc_UkiKoMf6RVv88Hp4FwUBZbsoJW63DGwQ3vth7QkTGGiCdIbObsd95Mpn32Kv-Yg9omv/s1600/DSC05833.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcAvKvcIOQ0RTOokP9b0fuLzPLMfSPiJ8aaTafn8YBAO0CDB-CV4ZSdN44mZng5QQ1GnCWgTnc_UkiKoMf6RVv88Hp4FwUBZbsoJW63DGwQ3vth7QkTGGiCdIbObsd95Mpn32Kv-Yg9omv/s400/DSC05833.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589869342215433874" /></a><br /><br />After the body was dried, we started to paint it with craft paint that we picked up at the store.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhr4QeG8cS2pT3MirXPanyI3qdW3XSu1KhI0c1ztqEbzPnIcNBXXR8mk7AXJI9OqrBkGkNsNHrdgnLdoQo9X8aWJblHzL1vAxVBixr8Ca-jyJgourt84XOcFx9yuUwFE1m70KMzBXzhhpmt/s1600/DSC05837.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhr4QeG8cS2pT3MirXPanyI3qdW3XSu1KhI0c1ztqEbzPnIcNBXXR8mk7AXJI9OqrBkGkNsNHrdgnLdoQo9X8aWJblHzL1vAxVBixr8Ca-jyJgourt84XOcFx9yuUwFE1m70KMzBXzhhpmt/s400/DSC05837.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589868686448628658" /></a><br /><br />Here is the final results.

It's not like it was an eventful week. We didn't attend any parties, nor were we invited to the White House, nothing spectacular happened but it will go down in my books as one of the most funniest weeks this year. You see the week started off by having me accused of being a murderer. Shocking I know. It happened in the beginning of the week it was just a plain ordinary day where I was cleaning our house. I was putting laundry away and I walked passed my daughter room when something caught my eye. It was my daughter's newest addition to her fish family Bubbles laying on his back floating there. I knew right away this was not a good sign and decided I would try to spear my daughter any heart ache and tried to dispose of it (Bubbles) without her seeing. So I hurried and put the laundry down gathered her fish net and scooped Mr Bubbles into to it and ran to my daughter's bathroom. Just as I had the fish net over the toilet and the fish was falling into the toilet in walks Erin. If you only saw the total horror look on her face and she screamed "MOMMMMMMM WHAT ARE YOU DOING". I try to explain how I was trying to dispose of Mr Bubbles so that she wouldn't have to be sad to see him that way and she said to me "How else am I suppose to feel when I come in to see my own mother murdering my best fish". With that I looked down at the toilet only to find Mr. Bubbles happily swimming away in my toilet. Nothing I said would convince her that I thought he was dead and I was only trying to spear her hurt feelings. She was pretty upset with me until two hours later when the darn fish really died. I wasn't born yesterday this time I got my husband to do the dirty work. So Erin and my husband had a little funeral for Mr. Bubbles and that's the end of our excitement for this week. Other than that our week consisted of Nike +, a walking path, a nice warm spring day, some more spring cleaning and a great big moon. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbHTk0rIhNPXS4iQrt9cGoTQEe7cI6-Cggq4k9kFfVpxhB_nGRPofWULmz3pMmlvbVytyFlOCowPbx7lcLx0eMIbm4IZLAptBgYpXyWh844DcnZ4kmU0PuUkDMV8NlpD0z_VX0gfaUjzhZ/s1600/DSC05793.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbHTk0rIhNPXS4iQrt9cGoTQEe7cI6-Cggq4k9kFfVpxhB_nGRPofWULmz3pMmlvbVytyFlOCowPbx7lcLx0eMIbm4IZLAptBgYpXyWh844DcnZ4kmU0PuUkDMV8NlpD0z_VX0gfaUjzhZ/s400/DSC05793.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587328709365485714" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgngBywUsgsCfdy6o0AAS0cZqCh2Q6a3Px0WYJndqlSRqjJHPrCYuUHbZyrPQggo40y58HJSDFDVHCbr2nc7JWds6m1EXzuN3ouJVNRRACMnRlhfe7nnYx9zDf-wMeDiGxTPY4Fd5-2oACX/s1600/DSC05795.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgngBywUsgsCfdy6o0AAS0cZqCh2Q6a3Px0WYJndqlSRqjJHPrCYuUHbZyrPQggo40y58HJSDFDVHCbr2nc7JWds6m1EXzuN3ouJVNRRACMnRlhfe7nnYx9zDf-wMeDiGxTPY4Fd5-2oACX/s400/DSC05795.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587328601002408178" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUfSoZvFvMvXSOgLV9igA9DY5tVb5CC0uwbR61sBQLL6ljJW34-6RGYIOIjA297R-UHaTHNy8-_N7QK_jolqt0-qA_gYjNwD2ED2gX89HsQVfbk9P31tmBNQPSwtX5cX0q0ztF2NjFmrjp/s1600/DSC05796.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUfSoZvFvMvXSOgLV9igA9DY5tVb5CC0uwbR61sBQLL6ljJW34-6RGYIOIjA297R-UHaTHNy8-_N7QK_jolqt0-qA_gYjNwD2ED2gX89HsQVfbk9P31tmBNQPSwtX5cX0q0ztF2NjFmrjp/s400/DSC05796.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587328506919179778" /></a><br /><br />Spring Cleaning continues at our house.

We took our daughter to see the movie Rango this past weekend. It was a cute but very long movie. Also, my daughter has to do book reports and with each book report she usually has a project that goes with it. This time she had to make a scene from the book in a shoe box. I thought she did a good job. The book she wrote about was "Kirsten goes to America" and she made a scene of the inside of what her cabin would look like. She took Popsicle sticks and took off the rounded edges than colored each one brown to represent the wood floor they had. Then she asked me to take her to Hobby Lobby so she could get furniture. I think the curtains that she made were adorable. She got a "A" on the project. As for me this week I am in the mist of spring cleaning. This week a got three rooms done including the master room linen closet. I am doing way better this year on my spring cleaning because last year I just didn't do it. I was sick on and off last year so I was in survival mode, but not this year I'm 100% and I'm getting things done around here. I had some time so I took out my Nikon and started to experiment with it. I'm learning a lot about my camera but it is a slow process. <br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKc1KTvvS1KO1uMkKiIQMDaQi8lWUm-WDYe-HPeDMSflyIrP6DvcwfcANyOBxFCs6vwxho7R7mEFC5ZeM9NlGK7N0xeOs7w2T39c5Z_VoxjZS1XY9Pbh7XrkXNhPih2fa5CGUWY1957Xt0/s1600/DSC_1242.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKc1KTvvS1KO1uMkKiIQMDaQi8lWUm-WDYe-HPeDMSflyIrP6DvcwfcANyOBxFCs6vwxho7R7mEFC5ZeM9NlGK7N0xeOs7w2T39c5Z_VoxjZS1XY9Pbh7XrkXNhPih2fa5CGUWY1957Xt0/s400/DSC_1242.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584272353301085266" /></a><br /><br />Here's me experimenting with the Nikon.

Wish we had more of them. It seems that our life are getting busier and busier that it's hard to stop and really enjoy just the everyday of life. This why I am so thankful for Project Life. It makes you focus on the daily routines and every day life. It let's you live in the moment and document that moment.

The week started out with Valentines day. Tons of chocolate have found their way into my home (not the best thing to have around when you are trying to lose weight). We also celebrated the results from my PET/scan that I had done the following week. I got an early birthday present on Thursday results NORMAL! Then we ended the week on Friday by celebrating my #*th birthday. My workaholic hubby surprised me and took the whole day off of work to spend time with little ole me. We took the kids to school then went out and bought a new lens for my Nikon (55mm-200mm Nikon lens ya baby) I was so thrilled but that wasn't the only surprise he had in store for me after we left Best Buy he said he need to stop into a Verizon store to see if someone could help him remove the cookies on his blackberry phone. While in the store he bought me a IPhone (wow wasn't expecting that at all what a great surprise). Then we went out to lunch and then back home. What a great day it isn't everyday that my hubby takes off and he really made me feel so special that day. I'm so blessed to have the family I have.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXIq5KB1_mln7gTuBBqMv15lThCN6qK5VIi5r1ecBJd0v_vbFPBt8Fgek3nOqssOtagnTpcLpucLNnY6TFf4LtZRQSlXaYyORLZ5Og2estAgzhtxSlRZS9kDw4wTjviermKZP1bSgqSS6A/s1600/DSC05681.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXIq5KB1_mln7gTuBBqMv15lThCN6qK5VIi5r1ecBJd0v_vbFPBt8Fgek3nOqssOtagnTpcLpucLNnY6TFf4LtZRQSlXaYyORLZ5Og2estAgzhtxSlRZS9kDw4wTjviermKZP1bSgqSS6A/s400/DSC05681.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576519327972711282" /></a><br /><br /><em>First page</em><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD4G8DJnETT9XnZnCyKb0gguoH6MysLlm_bfSmW75XR59SDo3rwzrhGR8K_EQffLMaiOEkiNBee9iDZ9nVS71Rop0rNKIcZ-hxiPIV2yCcsXRBD022rPZi8YS8A7xU64gEuEivYhG-kbxl/s1600/DSC05682.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD4G8DJnETT9XnZnCyKb0gguoH6MysLlm_bfSmW75XR59SDo3rwzrhGR8K_EQffLMaiOEkiNBee9iDZ9nVS71Rop0rNKIcZ-hxiPIV2yCcsXRBD022rPZi8YS8A7xU64gEuEivYhG-kbxl/s400/DSC05682.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576519225028497378" /></a><br /><br /><br /><em>second page - I thought I would included all the Valentines cards and my birthday cards</em><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVvoDKBxKdEDC3w2MOn10Cq-CNjZTTAMF7dcCL97fsi-EdGOQh7j_32DrmX9EOlrCUvT-YqU8LqfoiKGAoWyUgrCNpcAxtrwEKD_vq-ihnsoQRuheiw6XWssVQFwAS4DOtrAPk03PGyUqv/s1600/DSC05684.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVvoDKBxKdEDC3w2MOn10Cq-CNjZTTAMF7dcCL97fsi-EdGOQh7j_32DrmX9EOlrCUvT-YqU8LqfoiKGAoWyUgrCNpcAxtrwEKD_vq-ihnsoQRuheiw6XWssVQFwAS4DOtrAPk03PGyUqv/s400/DSC05684.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576519121976518642" /></a><br /><br /><em>Third page</em> This is the card I made my hubby for Valentines<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaRpE0A1cxVSzZLRuDQByJc7n5G7jJ8qCNdXefumm7G0aDtnTDRhoqNs5v9mCISHivHDrQRtM3bo_qqeoRDRP7xc66XDyPqTQLnrpCXeLnol3HwY2dyw9RZB5o4PSQ4J7TfzKXgb-4akMn/s1600/DSC05686.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaRpE0A1cxVSzZLRuDQByJc7n5G7jJ8qCNdXefumm7G0aDtnTDRhoqNs5v9mCISHivHDrQRtM3bo_qqeoRDRP7xc66XDyPqTQLnrpCXeLnol3HwY2dyw9RZB5o4PSQ4J7TfzKXgb-4akMn/s400/DSC05686.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576519028844817682" /></a><br /><br /><em>Fourth page</em> <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7h722zW3dAlmOIQ4jS7IVUSuL6ibtHg4oSxnEOXxZfGk-yUdcuBAP6pJdmRF5C1MAUH-mMu7HN62sEobOKfkR5OiI13RNMPIkfB1k4rx_mKuyX0h47EF55FeM3dZlZRjRl-azxQHWGD8F/s1600/DSC05687.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7h722zW3dAlmOIQ4jS7IVUSuL6ibtHg4oSxnEOXxZfGk-yUdcuBAP6pJdmRF5C1MAUH-mMu7HN62sEobOKfkR5OiI13RNMPIkfB1k4rx_mKuyX0h47EF55FeM3dZlZRjRl-azxQHWGD8F/s400/DSC05687.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576518913453398866" /></a><br /><br /><em>I included my birthday card my dd made me. </em><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTtqM3Mebqanugeldz0aadXJBZfO7n5kO3nSfPMf1Icn56so-0ieYq230Yhq8UfRbS2XRWcvQndXntbiLiLSpm0rohVreAIV8clNTA6jb_rNN9jvkp1roeZstdVtspsJI6pd0RSThq57NU/s1600/ErinCZ_StoryGuide1_edited-1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 309px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTtqM3Mebqanugeldz0aadXJBZfO7n5kO3nSfPMf1Icn56so-0ieYq230Yhq8UfRbS2XRWcvQndXntbiLiLSpm0rohVreAIV8clNTA6jb_rNN9jvkp1roeZstdVtspsJI6pd0RSThq57NU/s400/ErinCZ_StoryGuide1_edited-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576518703399020194" /></a><br /><br />I bought Cathy Zielske's Stories Guides from Designer Digital this week and I could not wait to sit down and interview my dd.

In the beginning of the week it was all about preparation for the party. There was valentines to be filled out and boxes to be made to hold the valentines that she would be receiving and pictures of pets for a project that they are doing at the party. The end of the week didn't turn out as planned. I was supposed to be the room party running the party on Friday, however, I had to go in for a PET/scan and was injected with radiation so I was advised it wouldn't be a good thing for me to attend the party as it could be harmful to the children. I was really bummed I was really looking forward to being there. I had to be at least three feet away from any child including my own for 12 hours. So it was really tough not to get my daily dose of hugs from my daughter that day. Thank goodness that my brother decided to drop in and he was a big help taking care of my daughter for me. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh31URGjA83U0a6drJm5FfQA2ZKtusrpUYqPoSGK1tdJFkqu7UYKx6Irc2m3e5QrXTZEGzQz9qP8G8XLQvLEhLYjlygiKz19N7ZGPU4-Sj9ZUW8WXL1L9Z1Id9KRgI_t_Dz0k0zvPFjx4i6/s1600/DSC05669.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh31URGjA83U0a6drJm5FfQA2ZKtusrpUYqPoSGK1tdJFkqu7UYKx6Irc2m3e5QrXTZEGzQz9qP8G8XLQvLEhLYjlygiKz19N7ZGPU4-Sj9ZUW8WXL1L9Z1Id9KRgI_t_Dz0k0zvPFjx4i6/s400/DSC05669.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573632299502711266" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPkuhEYjxUe0OYxiWP4SZd6RtKtcpcLtDxSNaxqIHabJiH-2d9Fo3DSBvL_jmpkZo38C9eviBTk2xAEZ9TGtmXBRlUd1OE2HuOQAdw54n_WYD8Kle3dRs-c8_FTW6pJo2_kjM9sxhauTwS/s1600/DSC05670.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPkuhEYjxUe0OYxiWP4SZd6RtKtcpcLtDxSNaxqIHabJiH-2d9Fo3DSBvL_jmpkZo38C9eviBTk2xAEZ9TGtmXBRlUd1OE2HuOQAdw54n_WYD8Kle3dRs-c8_FTW6pJo2_kjM9sxhauTwS/s400/DSC05670.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573632208258930306" /></a><br /><br />Here is my daughter busy little bee filling out her Valentines.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj805dOyMnFma0A0VfkoSoA4k3cg_y32Yi8R4oQDzhit0XCQHLtd7CL-iv8RYn2K6WCg_k6y_Py1uDNkcFuygpKJpgL47xxSw4jLETmo-KTtG698RHHlqzyDh_m7nnIiUNW4KOiD5SjR5dV/s1600/DSC05623.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj805dOyMnFma0A0VfkoSoA4k3cg_y32Yi8R4oQDzhit0XCQHLtd7CL-iv8RYn2K6WCg_k6y_Py1uDNkcFuygpKJpgL47xxSw4jLETmo-KTtG698RHHlqzyDh_m7nnIiUNW4KOiD5SjR5dV/s400/DSC05623.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573631763435191202" /></a><br /><br />I had to take about 16 pictures of my daughter and Brie.

Wish it was closer, <strong>but I think we are on the right path</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYNgvMDT8gvL_dD6yijfSWm4z45yN0JfDeOlnC9roOaSiV7SBs6XVXASIrDalYb79gL2Lv6xL1XEGZQx6WV9rZXq8IGdR1sSB1Zh3NekoO2QsaUCtf1opLtLFsmZDqOqxmxZI5CBpSsgve/s1600/nextSteps.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 177px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYNgvMDT8gvL_dD6yijfSWm4z45yN0JfDeOlnC9roOaSiV7SBs6XVXASIrDalYb79gL2Lv6xL1XEGZQx6WV9rZXq8IGdR1sSB1Zh3NekoO2QsaUCtf1opLtLFsmZDqOqxmxZI5CBpSsgve/s400/nextSteps.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573630548945060690" /></a><br /><br /><br />Hope everyone enjoyed their Valentines Day - until next time thanks for stopping by.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/215/32D5122017E809CFC2F356F0ABBC0353.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4661814546896072369.post-30079165194839542192011-02-14T06:45:00.005-06:002011-02-16T06:31:25.852-06:00Happy Valentine Day Babe, Here's to celebrating us!<em><strong>Happy Valentine Day Honey</strong></em><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSsGVVDXyCB-utAt-tbcdMc856WhAf_3qV_U9n9dB5LZhO2IKnSV89eOCymfS-M_qEJ8EqFi5aIXj6QZ9811zIoUZqborCTVzOul64TPJQV-pjO3CjU0PkZGh07mcGDGDyot9vhVa9TKQd/s1600/The+O%2527Connor+Family-11.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 283px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSsGVVDXyCB-utAt-tbcdMc856WhAf_3qV_U9n9dB5LZhO2IKnSV89eOCymfS-M_qEJ8EqFi5aIXj6QZ9811zIoUZqborCTVzOul64TPJQV-pjO3CjU0PkZGh07mcGDGDyot9vhVa9TKQd/s400/The+O%2527Connor+Family-11.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573526654381916162" /></a><br /><br /><em><br />Things that I love about my hubby</em><br /><br />I love that he is such a great father. The kids can't get enough of his time and they know when he is paying attention to them that his sole attention is just on them. He is always willing to hop in and help with the kids cooking, doing homework,finding out what they love and encouraging them to do it. I very much appreciate that even if I don't always tell him so.<br /><br />I love that our relationship started off as friends and til this day I consider him my best friend. The one I run to - to tell all my secrets. <br /><br />I love that after all these years that I can honestly say when I look at my husband he still gives me that tingle in my tummy. <br /><br />I love that he is such a hard worker and such a great provider for our family. He is willing to do whatever it takes to take care of all of us.<br /><br />I love how he is so caring and that no matter what happens if he takes the time to care about someone you can do no wrong in his eyes.<br /><br />I love how loyal he is and how when he tells someone he'll be there that he does just that whole heartily.<br /><br />I love his dry sense of humor and the fact that he doesn't mind my sarcastic humor.<br /><br />I love that he truly let's me be the me I want to be. The way he encourages me in whatever adventures I get involved. He is always there rooting me on and telling me I can do things that even I don't think are possible to do.<br /><br />Happy Valentine Day. I must add that this idea to do this post was not my idea, I saw one of my favorite blogs do this and said to myself how wonderful is this. So thanks to Clover Lane blog. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/215/32D5122017E809CFC2F356F0ABBC0353.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4661814546896072369.post-90118975483117667792011-02-07T22:41:00.006-06:002011-02-07T22:59:38.737-06:00Project Life - week five<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeWw4Gw9P7Sv6VOw96M8IGC7gXtn1N9qLra3A243El6yspMWBiLOAlSkmhkXOsfavR3rlpvKzB_a4Q3l5A4KEF_1XnbWeGm39pNPx3_nCuk4i7cQmK1LDoTNV61aEWZqrvMe4OnbLeWrIy/s1600/PL-Tuesday.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 350px; height: 274px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeWw4Gw9P7Sv6VOw96M8IGC7gXtn1N9qLra3A243El6yspMWBiLOAlSkmhkXOsfavR3rlpvKzB_a4Q3l5A4KEF_1XnbWeGm39pNPx3_nCuk4i7cQmK1LDoTNV61aEWZqrvMe4OnbLeWrIy/s400/PL-Tuesday.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571178886773208674" /></a><br /><br /><br /><strong>Week Five</strong><br /><br />Boy what a week we had last week. The blizzard that came through was ranked the third in the top ten blizzards of Chicago. After all was said and done we got 20.2 inches of snow. It was a tough week with the snow. It took all of us an hour and a half just to clear off our drive way (let's just say our drive way isn't that big it usually only takes 15 mins. tops to clear it normally). The kids loved it they got two days off of school because of the blizzard. My daughter has three snow forts that are taller than her in our back yard. We had to shovel a path for our dog so she could go outside because she would of been lost in the snow if we didn't. To be totally honest it felt kind of like a mini vacation having everyone home. I was sorry to see them all go back to work and school. <br /><br />This is the first week of my Project life book that I had to use an extra sheet protector in order to get all the photos in. I could of probably use one more but I tried to use an editing eye and cut back the number of pictures to put in the book.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMrIpAYIToMWS5qyh-MzvMBH-0OepSm2EuL4cc-TK8XC84eCQnXpFE5yHvi6mnBiQFmUtmQB0xfq1QDnrYDdZm-qRL45QWiRJCSSa_aBQ0XrkdXPEmEYZ0wa96tPUNdyr8rODHK1V4hruC/s1600/DSC05648.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMrIpAYIToMWS5qyh-MzvMBH-0OepSm2EuL4cc-TK8XC84eCQnXpFE5yHvi6mnBiQFmUtmQB0xfq1QDnrYDdZm-qRL45QWiRJCSSa_aBQ0XrkdXPEmEYZ0wa96tPUNdyr8rODHK1V4hruC/s400/DSC05648.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571174942804109682" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrm63OOU03-TBqf4LoAFpunL3NnhnaQVCv5W_mO4rV1BBvbms4iurMaTSHv7n3m7YkGH-3Q3zUKW6L3x5_jeQJCFKN5LfLCsKvbCpR_cMX00Z57J_ISiAhqM1eN6yXXooTWGWng_FBsuaH/s1600/DSC05649.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrm63OOU03-TBqf4LoAFpunL3NnhnaQVCv5W_mO4rV1BBvbms4iurMaTSHv7n3m7YkGH-3Q3zUKW6L3x5_jeQJCFKN5LfLCsKvbCpR_cMX00Z57J_ISiAhqM1eN6yXXooTWGWng_FBsuaH/s400/DSC05649.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571174812601139858" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjg4m7sRNunH6-BNLVMpx8QN2LmHnZ_KH4br5mHWOI7tI1l6boy2A3xZhxYrH1DuYL5dR57VglMnsfGoU4EstKl6bcsmDPskzexLuhpcbRSGmZyEhc4GuWb-HOhuWqzG36i_-of_GUHC49/s1600/DSC05650.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjg4m7sRNunH6-BNLVMpx8QN2LmHnZ_KH4br5mHWOI7tI1l6boy2A3xZhxYrH1DuYL5dR57VglMnsfGoU4EstKl6bcsmDPskzexLuhpcbRSGmZyEhc4GuWb-HOhuWqzG36i_-of_GUHC49/s400/DSC05650.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571174705713413282" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4N-iHul4CQq6O0BnZQeUaSx4ZaCBJxGIRr3M8Pua6DL_eq5v8fW1H4dnC4COSyI_Wdn59HUWobYZWbkEfgjdT51_7HX7A2VmAojmUCegrhQPUnYCJmsyM3Pen19y_rHMlI4gcw3PX6SS_/s1600/DSC05651.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4N-iHul4CQq6O0BnZQeUaSx4ZaCBJxGIRr3M8Pua6DL_eq5v8fW1H4dnC4COSyI_Wdn59HUWobYZWbkEfgjdT51_7HX7A2VmAojmUCegrhQPUnYCJmsyM3Pen19y_rHMlI4gcw3PX6SS_/s400/DSC05651.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571174587503544978" /></a><br /><br /><br />Remember when I said last week I can't wait to see what next week brings?

They kept saying it was coming but I really don't think I believed it. Here is a peak through the day. The first picture is when it started to snow and the second picture is when the wind started to kick up. Right now as I look out the window it's hard for me to see my neighbor across the streets house. It's hard to tell if we are really getting as much snow as they said we will be getting cause the wind is blowing so hard (is it fresh snow or the wind blowing around snow we already had?) These pictures will definitely be in my Project Life album. The schools have been closed, roads have been closed and this is just the beginning we still have to see what tomorrow weather will bring. Looks like there will be some quality time with the family tomorrow.<br /><br /><br />Before taken around 3:00 p.m this afternoon.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbgWIH_xy73o_yQ2oa1FeTxQqlSWe7MDnyValVA0TOschb1Vj407uUeyqmFZFlmqMTR9sjyy7mZF8XElAU_vd4a6kkVV-vnCJNlOgYQ9EJXcjfmCHYfnNcMsXpCTKPU-1JqJpEeR9UR14m/s1600/DSC05561.JPG"><img style="display:block;

My husband's nephew and his family came in from California. We helped them celebrate their daughters first birthday. Where does the time go? Speaking of celebrating birthday's we also celebrate my brother's wife birthday and my birthday. Lots of family time going on this week.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzbMjdC9zZC9Jvw-03TGmGe8X_Ti56iKVZyeLQ8uepBmsicFt4I_EfAL3QGy97rANOL2JtmPil0UKkGjPA-6YVwvLekzxo3fzL03jYpFMVxEJSKAdIyIftScVqlbCGYBb4RN25iplo6xQN/s1600/DSC05550.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzbMjdC9zZC9Jvw-03TGmGe8X_Ti56iKVZyeLQ8uepBmsicFt4I_EfAL3QGy97rANOL2JtmPil0UKkGjPA-6YVwvLekzxo3fzL03jYpFMVxEJSKAdIyIftScVqlbCGYBb4RN25iplo6xQN/s400/DSC05550.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568698606141453074" /></a><br /><br />My daughter got her report this week too. Almost all straight A's except for her social study class which she received a "B" Very impressive. This is the first year that she is actually receiving letter grades like A - F, instead of S, U. She feels so grown up. I over heard her tell her brother that she has big kids grading system now.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqeFDZMaoi-Ks9VQk15dt0j62Gmxdr1C2j-2JBhkOJJI7zkY6vPkDsBQ4nVdSqWDgi7jesCOLc_c3teDipeUOp9VR3h5shlyiASZ6DXuctyhXdECWhkQlVuwe5KXBueNnVZD7jH935ZEXk/s1600/DSC05546.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqeFDZMaoi-Ks9VQk15dt0j62Gmxdr1C2j-2JBhkOJJI7zkY6vPkDsBQ4nVdSqWDgi7jesCOLc_c3teDipeUOp9VR3h5shlyiASZ6DXuctyhXdECWhkQlVuwe5KXBueNnVZD7jH935ZEXk/s400/DSC05546.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568698203353998834" /></a><br /><br />Also I was doing my happy dance a couple times this week because my Gypsy finally arrived. I had gotten one for Christmas but when I turned it on it did not work so had to shipped back for a replacement. As if that wasn't enough to make my scrapbooker's heart sing a day later my Ali Edward stamp sets came. <br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisz4ruUynCqoL0JaMFn4433_V5CPRR_adbV2Ve5HbQs9Vw4eAZJH9q9RRv3b0DosKZuSZ-BoJjOmnVhQDzsimnkF9vnn2veB9yN6yaWKkrRo_x5TIpVIR7e022NHYDYIM0qaRDIgo6MhlT/s1600/DSC05559.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisz4ruUynCqoL0JaMFn4433_V5CPRR_adbV2Ve5HbQs9Vw4eAZJH9q9RRv3b0DosKZuSZ-BoJjOmnVhQDzsimnkF9vnn2veB9yN6yaWKkrRo_x5TIpVIR7e022NHYDYIM0qaRDIgo6MhlT/s400/DSC05559.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568698403123177698" /></a><br /><br /><br />I just love Ali Edward's stamps they are so versatile.

I decided to sort all of my 2010 pictures and get them ready to scrap. Lately, I've been using Becky Higgins Project Life for my 2011 pictures and I am loving it, but I wanted to change it up a little for my 2010 pics and decided to try Simple Stories Document Life from Archivers. To tell you the truth I think once you have tried Becky Higgins product you'll never want to use anything else. Simple Stories just doesn't have the bang for the buck like Project Life. They don't give you as much product which makes it hard to do a whole years worth of photo's. So I decided I would mix and match with the supplies I already have. Here is a peek of the beginning of 2010 album using Simple Stories. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1GHCmTSdEi2Mi7hrL465Vnv5QTMdIllzMh7pSXRasKbw02x-WeMw_zOapredQBFN2FLNLfxyICfsYSL4COHXaVgsjlo0dHeB1rsfqxoNvFxWviUA7_w-SvpAAC6iH7iYs07HRVV3afpDx/s1600/DSC05532.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1GHCmTSdEi2Mi7hrL465Vnv5QTMdIllzMh7pSXRasKbw02x-WeMw_zOapredQBFN2FLNLfxyICfsYSL4COHXaVgsjlo0dHeB1rsfqxoNvFxWviUA7_w-SvpAAC6iH7iYs07HRVV3afpDx/s400/DSC05532.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567335769682684498" /></a><br /><br />This is my first page of the album, which I'm not to happy with.

Well Christmas has finally left the building this week. DD and Dad went to the finally christmas party (the breaking of the ginger bread houses party). This is an annual party that is thrown for the kids every years. Everyone brings their houses to the party and we have a contest to see who can destroy the house the fastest. The kids love this party and we get to get rid of the gingerbread house, so it's a win win for everyone. I'm so glad my husband's aunt came up this idea years ago. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb-o_otG9Ye5YuVcLYKZt6TBFoRJ7Rt4D3povJdTp8NiBuqimpr46eg-eHhGAqsUDfULyQcYvpqsDKpSOfVlUrLekReCbwviTrIItGWZi0wVXz-gx4hd0c6KqS0bZK432yn6Coeu6iPSyb/s1600/edibleart-beautifulhouse.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb-o_otG9Ye5YuVcLYKZt6TBFoRJ7Rt4D3povJdTp8NiBuqimpr46eg-eHhGAqsUDfULyQcYvpqsDKpSOfVlUrLekReCbwviTrIItGWZi0wVXz-gx4hd0c6KqS0bZK432yn6Coeu6iPSyb/s400/edibleart-beautifulhouse.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566063151690695522" /></a><br /><br /><br />We were also dealing with sick kids this week. It seems like every year this is a reoccurring theme around here the week or two after Christmas my kids get back to school only to come down with some kind of illness. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh45zaqwUh63yOPdx8PJ0VQNtLhc7GYh0EhYZPfr9kGAepLCofaQ1u66XJ7DRXZiyO2J1uX0y-5fgNSxKzC7RnlHJgQvF-h_vmm3CCX6Dvwd2glnkFtwrGHIPr1ssHpn4V4VQ0SMll20O2m/s1600/DSC05447.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh45zaqwUh63yOPdx8PJ0VQNtLhc7GYh0EhYZPfr9kGAepLCofaQ1u66XJ7DRXZiyO2J1uX0y-5fgNSxKzC7RnlHJgQvF-h_vmm3CCX6Dvwd2glnkFtwrGHIPr1ssHpn4V4VQ0SMll20O2m/s400/DSC05447.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566063605534590994" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSEEKRCuO99_iyG2di8MDmhZVl9Z83DdIZz6mKoeMwR6eqD8qAVHZ8BjhlVPGdZoo3O2HDkORL9Ca83VVb213p3nBwxwfe3ppwLI8KxdQY7L6bR3ML8lA7K62CRwajtKQEBj9iuilL2KSX/s1600/DSC05514.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSEEKRCuO99_iyG2di8MDmhZVl9Z83DdIZz6mKoeMwR6eqD8qAVHZ8BjhlVPGdZoo3O2HDkORL9Ca83VVb213p3nBwxwfe3ppwLI8KxdQY7L6bR3ML8lA7K62CRwajtKQEBj9iuilL2KSX/s400/DSC05514.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566060579923284866" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjslQZNJXtZtELmVNB0thFgge_cuR11HfowQoZXVXPEOlzwr95Qh80Uc8E1G8WfD3KBH_Z1WwD_HYNEQ9ZSgV77FkXXeuyuVf2RqMQK8HAtKCFdJQg_ELMKK3CRNRwZkPsATp7AiKohpJTW/s1600/DSC05517.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjslQZNJXtZtELmVNB0thFgge_cuR11HfowQoZXVXPEOlzwr95Qh80Uc8E1G8WfD3KBH_Z1WwD_HYNEQ9ZSgV77FkXXeuyuVf2RqMQK8HAtKCFdJQg_ELMKK3CRNRwZkPsATp7AiKohpJTW/s400/DSC05517.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566060325894746754" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/215/32D5122017E809CFC2F356F0ABBC0353.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a><strong></strong><strong></strong><strong></strong><strong></strong>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1
