SYC

now i remember how i made it through last summer....duh....scrappin! here is one i just did for syc. picture is ick but it's done. i used TWO packages of elsie lola chip buttons :)

random

here is another one for the basb'ers...we were suppose to use a photo without a person in it. i get teased a lot from my family for taking random pics. they are always asking me "why are you taking a picture of that?" well...i really don't know. i just like taking pictures :P

monkey bars, cheese its, glass of soda and my shorts ( i kind of use the pencil lines 135 for this)

that was an easy one ;)

all about me

there is a new challenge up over here.

here are the rules i copied from dawn... what!?! i'm giving her the credit... ;)

"The challenge this time around, is a 'All About YOU'. Yes, YOU! Not the mom, girlfriend, sister, wife, co-worker, etc. that you are-Just YOU. What are YOU like? What makes YOU unique? Create a LO, a project, a mini or what ever you wish. The only requirement is that it is about just YOU. I think you get it now."

this is my layout...

a little something

for my BASB'ers...

my menu :

beverages - big-girl drink - a shaped paper

appetizers - boneless chicken wings - 2 photos

entrees - steak and mashed potatoes - stamping

dessert - chocolate lava cake - bling

i used a sketch from here, a blog karen pointed out to me today.

scrap your crap

here is a layout i did for the challenge over at syc. you had to use sheer embellishments and/or transparencies. i didn't journal because for me it tells its own story. only karen would understand because she was there ;)

playing in the rain

the girls have been getting along so well this weekend...i'm a bit shocked. yesterday they ALL played catched together. (they are including kimber even though it doesn't look like from the pics)
today they were out playing in the rain. they ended up in the back of my car watching the rain and drying off. just thought i would share some pics of these rare moments...

BASB challenge

this is a layout i did for the current BASB challenge. there is still time to get yours in :)

momma is playing soccer

yes, you read that correctly!
when kimber's season was ending a few weeks ago, one of my soccer moms suggested we play in the adult league. i thought she was kidding but before i knew it, i was handing her my reg fee. what was i thinking??? we had our first practice last monday...lots of laughs. hubs ended up swimming in the lake to get the ball. tomorrow will be our second practice and we decided to make it a "soccer and beer" practice.
anywho, this pic is of a few soccer balls we have collected over the past four years of the girls playing. think any of them will do?


heck no! momma deserves her own. hehe
so i'm on the hunt for a CUTE one. and the girls will not be able to play with it :P

mean mom?

don't laugh!

ok, you can laugh because i can't stop! these pictures don't need explaining...

friday 5

karen tagged me in the friday 5. i asked her if i could do it saturday. she then sent me a text saying if i did it saturday i would have to do 75. not that i don't think you would love to read 75 wonderful facts about my day, i just thought i would spare you.

so here we go:

1. did 4.5 miles on the elliptical this morning (toot toot! go aimee! go aimee!)

2. vacuumed my bed (i have a sickness) k...i'm not sick...i just can't stand bed bugs! ick

3. had chips n queso with hubs at OTB

4. sat outside in the wonderful sun for about an hour reading :)

5. just got home from lg's softball game and i REALLY need a shower (me stanky! whew!)

since she already took sheree, denise and greta b...

i will pick ki, diana, waleska, jenn and elizabeth

now on to my pics for today. i took a lot tonight but the last one is my pod ;)

these are from lg's softball game tonight. even though none of them are of lg actually playing. miranda was being a snot...

so...i told kimber to sit on her...

then there is sweet kimber and dad

and here is mr. smarty pants trying to be funny. he says he is just holding the cord in his hand but i think he is really telling me how he feels about having to RE-vacuum the bed!

so that's it for now...man this post took almost forty minutes!

i need to go take a shower BAD!

later :P

fence business

the prompt for yesterday was contrast...didn't follow. i'm sure denise is wondering why i asked for them if i'm not going to follow them ;)

here is my pod for yesterday...

some of you may remember me complaining just a bit about my neighbor's fence awhile back. after six months of looking at a fence held together by wire and such, they started working on it about two weeks ago. as you can see i have nothing to complain about now. isn't it gorgeous? wish they would just keep going across the rest of my back yard :)

but once they got that part finished, they stopped. i'm beginning to wonder if they are trying to tell me something. maybe they don't want to see my white trash porch anymore. hehe

now i'm off to take miranda to her dance performance. the word for today is crowded, i'm sure i will be able to find a pic for that there.
