its saturday and i'm bored. ugh. art is working today..so we have no car to go anywhere. i suppose we could walk..or ride the bus. but honestly..i'm feeling to lazy to walk, and i'm just plain sure that if i got on the bus i'd get lost. lol. i'm horrible with geography.

today is a crop for the 2ps pub gals at a lss..and i really wanted to go. however..i dont know how in the world i would get my stuff there...oh. and art wants to go paintball. so the compromise is he goes to paintball and i stay home and scrap. and pretend that i'm at the crop! lol. i'm pretty bummed tho because Sande Kreiger and Amber Skolnick are supposed to be showing up!! but hopefully next time i will definitely make it there!

nothing much going on in my scrappy world..just trying to find my lost motivation..who just so happend to take my mojo with it. i fell off the load wagon and its killing me!! so today i vow to make something. i must! lol.

here are my latest creations:




this one is using some new sassafrass pp..which i love!! they had some awesome stuff come out at cha! yum!





this was for the scraplyric gals..the theme
was the 80's..so i picked madonna of course!!

so today was the day..the great heist on my kids! hehe.
art had to work half the day..then he came home and we told them if they were good we'd go to the park.
so ya. we packed them up and headed on up to lagoon (its an amusement park..dont know what to compare it to..maybe like knotts?)..anyways..
maya sees the rides and shes like this:
mom!! its magoon(lagoon)
i say: um..no. thats LAgoon
maya:are going dere(there)
i say:um no. daddy i just thought it would be fun to drive around and look at the rides

we are soo evil!! hehe. i luurve it.
we had a blast..the kids went on every kiddie ride and then some. then we ate..and ya. im still suffering. hehe.

so the whole pic thing. ya. i told kelly that i knew i'd forget the camera. so before i left today, she was all reminding me, right. so i bring the camera. i didnt forget this time. but ya. we get there and it wont let me take any more pics..someting about the memory being full..and i was like no freakin way! ya. I FORGOT THE DANG MEMORY CARD!!!
grr to me! so i have like 15 pics. and thats it. but now i have to figure out how to get them off the camera and into my computer with no memory card. sooo..maybe tomorrow!

so i'm uber tired. but i stayed up to play with my paper posies kit which came today..and i scrapped a pic of my bff arlene and her dd hanna.

happy august to ya!

i can't freakin believe how fast july flew by!! man. its like oh its summer..and then whammo its over! geez. i think its the layout a day i'm doin at 2ps thats makin it fly by.

anyhoo..today was a way weird weather (whoa, thats a lot of w's) day in utah. way stormy; windy, rain/thunder and some hail!! geez. i think it was only like 62 today at noon. and yesterday was 80-90 degrees. weirdness.

so olivia had her appt at the dentist and only had one cavity! yay. so we also had maya get a check up and she is doing good with no cavities at all! i was relieved. i dont know why, but it made me feel like a bad mom that olivia had a cavity..but at least its fixed now and its her baby teeth. plus ever since we got home she's been brushing like 4x a day lol. its cute. she's decided that instead of wanting to be a princess when she grows up she now wants to be a dentist! hehe. what a cutie.

today i have a couple of lo's to share..one is for the number challenge, and the other was a total and complete scraplift of tara whitney. what can i say..i have no stinkin mojo! ugh.


okay the challenge was to use 38 flowers on one lo. and at last count i had 58! phew!







and here is the total scraplift of tara whitney. she is a genius i tell ya. genius.
of course..her lo looks mucho better than mine! but what can i do?! i'm no stinkin genius! :P




peace out!
