(tap-tap) is this thing on??

Wow, it's been far too long since I last blogged. I was reminded (and scolded, I think) for not keeping up with the blogging thing, so I am coming back and promise to keep updating. This is for you, Deb (and anyone else who hasn't given up on me yet!).

The Holidays:

Well, we survived. Things were crazy and stressfull, with a little bit of fun thrown in there somewhere. The kids had a blast, which is what it's all about. I also had a lot of fun visiting with my family and close friends throughout the season. Some I didn't get to see, but I never forgot about. I wish there was more time!!

So excited!

Those of you who have seen me since Christmas have already heard this, but I have to share it again. I am very excited to announce that my twin sister is now addicted to scrapbooking!! Yep, I finally got to her. She asked for some things for Christmas to get started, so I got her one of everything out there (well, almost). We did a couple of pages after Christmas and she hasn't stopped yet! She reminds me of myself when I first started. This is a dream come true for me, to be able to share this fun hobby with her. Now I can't wait to get together and share all my stuff with her!

Classes:

Wow! I am so geeked about my upcoming projects for classes this month and thru March. I don't know what it is, but I am in the zone (the scrapping zone, that is) and I feel so inspired right now! Having so much fun! Even went to The Scrapbook Zone to scrap all day yesterday and had a blast with all the girls there! I even dragged Linda Weh to scrap with me for a bit. Good times. Here are a few samples for this month:

Decorative Journal:

Altered Art Doll:

Valentine Cards and Goodies (using the new Basic Grey Blush Card kit and papers, love them!):

I also finished the Clean and Simple page samples and will post them once I get them scanned. Now I have to get ready for February classes.....

In other news:

Nate started his new program and I am so pleased. It's the perfect program for us and I am so excited to see his progress. We go everyday, and he loves it. He asked to go all weekend, so he'll be glad to see Andrea (his therapist) today. However, he wasn't so thrilled about going to school this morning. I had to carry him on the bus. I think he was mad because he couldn't wear his football shirt to school~ the same one he wore all weekend. Oh the joys of having young ones.....

Mark is keeping busy with work, and Devyn is doing well in school. I guess things are going great for us, I sure can't complain!

My mom and sister are coming to visit this Friday night for a sleepover. Tammy wants to scrapbook and my mom wants to be with the kids. Should be fun.

I think that's about it for now, but if I think of anything, I will be back~ I promise!:)

PS: It's FINALLY snowing outside! YAHOO!

Have a great day!
