What a crazy weekend!

Wow! It is crazy to think that Thanksgiving has come and gone again! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving...complete with a little family drama..tis the season ;)

Today I have spent the day decorating the house for Christmas and also working on some ideas that I have in my head and need to get down on paper! I have sketched a few sketches and also covered some blocks and have been working on the 3bugs call! I am so excited that I decided to go forward with it..regardless of what happens..I know I will love the projects that I am completing.

Gavin is so into the tree this year..he was so little last year that he didn't even notice it..so it is cute watching him checking out the tree. I know I am going to capture some amazing photos of him this year at the tree :)

I also started back on WW today. It is always hard the first few weeks..but I am excited to get my weight under control again...it seems to be an on-going project..but it is totally worth the effort.

SWG.com is having some fun contests..and I am so happy to be on the dt and helping with all of the fun! We are having a huge dt call looking for 2 new dt members with a month long contest. So I spent a few hours today designing blinkies for the contest. This contest is going to be a blast! I just love the SWG site and being on the team. I can't wait to see who ends up winning and joining the SWG team.

The big scare!

Well we found out tonight that Gavin is allergic to peanut butter! 1 emergency visit later..and he is offically not allowed to have any...which means I will be removing it from the house since his sister gave it to him in the first place..oh the joys of life! We are just glad that he is okay and that we are aware of what is going on.

Earlier today I worked on my Christmas cards ...I can't believe it is almost time to get these out. I really want to get them out earlier this year..like right after Thanksgiving..since I put so much time and effort into making them they should be displayed in our friends homes for longer than a few days.

Tomorrow I hope to capture a family photo so we will have one in our card this year. Wish me luck! I will post some when I figure out how to upload photos to this blog...still so new to this!

Recovering...

Well today has been crazy...trying to get everything put back together after Gavin's birthday party yesterday...yes, my baby turned 1 yesterday! I have mixed emotions about it..mostly good but I also feel the loss of my baby.
His party went great yesterday...complete with a cake in his face :) I will post some pictures later. He is such a little cutie and is becoming more of a little man each day.
I am also trying to reorganize my scrapbooking room...since the BIO (bring it on contest at SWG.com..)I have created a huge mess that I didn't clean up as I was moving along..needless to say I have a lot of cleaning up to do.
I was happy to hear the results of the bio last night. We had a lot of talented gals that did some amazing work! The owner and dt competed against each other and I was happy to finally hear that I took first place. YEAH! isn't that so flippin' exciting! :)

I love scrapbooking..it is a passion and I love sharing my work..and since I spend so much time online..it was about time I made the jump and opened up my very own blog :)
