Lucky I am...

I love this Man... I don't know what is today but I feel so very thankful for my husband today...

Maybe it's becase I came home from work and hanging out with my girlfriend Jeniece tonight to a SPOTLESS house... I mean he cleaned house... What a special treat!

Jeneice and I had fun tonight.. We met at http://www.scrappychiclivonia.com and then we made our way over to http://thescrapbookzone.com for a little shopping.. We also had some Baja Fresh and great conversation!!

Ordered some buttons today that are very yummy!!! WARNING- Enabler WARNING Proceed with caution!! http://www.acolorfulhouse.typepad.com/colorit

Thank goodness tomorrow is the weekend! I'm very excited to spend some quality time with my mom this weekend. I also am looking forward to getting some scrapping done...

I guess that's about all for tonight.. I'm going to sign off for now I want to watch Ugly Betty before I go to bed. I love that show ...

Okay so I'm a bad Blogger...
Let me see... What's new? Valentines Day has came and gone... Marty decided to buy me chocolate this year. Cell Phone that is.. I love it! He bought me the Strawberry Chocolate from Verizon... :)
I've been working on my scrapbook room all week. It's still not done but it's getting there. I had tons of organizing to do... See my clothes have to share the room too! That is the only down fall. But I'm really starting to get there. Next time my mom comes over she just may be shocked. Hopefully!!
I went Croppin at Scrappy Chic on Friday with my Peeps... ( Got that lingo from Staci) Jeniece, Sandi, Staci, Mom and I. It was really nice to hang out with my mom... I love scrappin with her.

Jeniece had some really cool paper and tags from Jenni Bowlins web site... You know I had to have them... Ordered them can't wait for the Brown truck this week...

Went to Target today they had some cute pastel buckets in the $1 spot. LOVE THEM!! ( You know I couldn't resist for a $1)

My goal for March is to start posting more pictures. That will be much easier to concentrate on once my room is organized!!!

Well I guess that's about all for now. I will post more this week!!

Winter is here....

For those of you that live in Michigan I think you will agree winter has found us... The weather has been pretty mild for this time of year until now... WOW it is cold out!!!!!

I had such a nice weekend... Marty and I hung out with his sister and her boyfriend on Friday. I'm really starting to appreciate my SIL more and more everyday.

Marty and I have been together for 7 years and married for 3 1/2 exactly to the day. But I feel like I have really started having my own relationship with Susan since my MIL was ill and in the hospital.

I think things have really changed for us since then. Even she and Marty seem to be closer. I think sometimes watching someone you love get so sick and worrying about what tomorrow will bring really changes how you view your relationships. WOW! That got a little deep... :)

Saturday- was an AWESOME day. I went to a scrapbook class and boy did I have a blast... It was so much fun!!!!!

" TOp 5 reasons I love you" - Mini book for Valentines Day... It's so cute. I can't wait to get it completely done! Marty will be very happy to receive it this Valentines Day. He loves it when I make his gifts.

I will post pictures once I finish it...

Got to spend some quality girl time with my chulita -Dawn. She and I have grown up together. It's been so long since she has scrapped that I forgot how much I missed scrapping with her. She and Scott were married in Oct. and are expecting their first child together in August... Dawn has 2 children from her first marriage... So needless to say she has a lot of scrapping to get done... I love it when she comes out to play!!!!

Sandy and Denise were also at the Class... I hadn't seen Denise in so long it was so nice to see her... She had some very cute pictures of her new granddaughter to share. She also showed me a family picture with her daughter she is so cute.. But then again look at her mom...

Jeneice was the teacher - as you all know she is so very talented!! The class was at my new favorite store http://www.scrappychiclivonia.com/.

Jeneice, Sandy and I stayed and cropped for a little while... Good times!

While we were at the class Miki came by to visit, shop and spend time with us... She did have to leave though and head over to hang out with her niece for a while.

She did return with her SIL Samantha, who is going to start scrapping they came to get an Album and walked out with 1/2 the store... Well it wasn't that bad... But almost.. :) We all remember those days...
