Two Years Ago Today...

...I married my best friend!!

I can't believe that it has already been two years. Some days it feels like yesterday, while others I can't remember what it was like before we were husband and wife.

To celebrate our anniversary and help make our third year of marriage the best yet, I have come up with a little project. Everyday, whether we are together or not, I will tell my husband one thing I love about him. It may seem trivial, but sometimes I take advantage of what I have. Sometimes I dwell on the negative instead of focusing on positive. Sometimes I do not realize what a great thing I have. I love him very much, I just forget to show him that sometimes. So, whether it be in a note, in a text or in a heartfelt conversation I will make a point to tell him one thing, big or little, that I love about him. Of course, I will keep track of everything and on our next anniversary I will put everything into a mini album. I will keep you posted on my progress!

I know I have been the worst blogger EVER, but I hope to change that in the coming weeks. I have lots of great ideas, I just need to execute them. I do have lots of new pages to share, I will scan/photograph them this week.

Have a gooder!!

AMR Survivor

There is a survivor challenge going on right now on the AMR boards. This week it was a music challenge. I chose to do a page about my wedding song. This is a picture of the Hot Hubby and I dancing our first dance as a married couple. Our song was I Can Love You by Gary Allan. I printed the lyrics on a transparency and layered it on top of the photo. Our wedding colours were pink and brown, so I thought it was fitting to use those colours on the page.

There are some wonderful entries into this competition, so it if you have a second head over to the boards and vote for your favorite one. The voting isover now. I didn't mnake the second round, but I really enjoyed creating this page.

The lyrics to the song are:

I can’t stop your heart from breaking,
Can’t make right mistakes we’ve made,
Can’t dry your crying eyes,
For my little angels sake,
I can’t make the sun keep smiling,
Or blow away the clouds,
There’s some things in this old world girl,
I can’t do nothing bout,

But I can love you,
Like I’ve always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won’t ever see me run,
I won’t leave you,When you need a friend,
Can’t make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they’ve ever been,
But I can love you,

Can’t hold back the ocean waves,
Or stop a sinking ship,
Can’t make a mountain move,
Or tell you how to live,

But I can love you,
Like I’ve always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won’t ever see me run,
I won’t leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can’t make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they’ve ever been,

But I can love you,

And I won’t leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can’t make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they’ve ever been,

But I can love you,
But I can love you.

It is another nasty spring morning. The snow is falling and the roads are a mess. I hope spring will hurry up and get here!!

Have a gooder!!

So This Is Spring!?!?!?

When I woke up this morning, this is what I saw out my window!!

It was crazy!! It was total white-out conditions at one point in time. Gotta love spring in Alberta ;) At least the snow has stopped now and it is starting to warm up. Thank goodness we didn’t take my winter tires off yet! And to think a local golf course opened up yesterday. I don’t think too many people will be teeing of today ;)

Things have been so busy lately I have hardly had anytime to scrapbook. There is an online crop tonight on the AMR boards. I am going to try and do a couple of the challenges, but I think the hot hubby and I are going out for dinner, so I will have to wait and see. I am itching to get some pages done so hopefully I can join in the fun a bit!

I hope to have some new pages to share soon!
Have a gooder!!

Cards!!

I have this great file folder that I have labelled and divided into months. The plan was to pre-make cards and put them in them into the appropriate sections. This would remedy my constant panic card making a half hour before an event. That was the plan anyways. After having this folder for a couple of years now I finally pre-made a few cards this week. It is so much easier to do them in batches. It goes way faster, and I only have to clean up once (yes Michelle, I cleaned up when I was done)!

Here are the cards that I made:



I hope to make another batch of cards soon, but I really need to get working on my Disney album again, so we will see!

I hope to have more pages or cards to share soon!!
Have a gooder!!

It’s All About Love!!

The one thing about February is that is full of love!! I subscribed to the AMR’s monthly kit, and this month was fabulous. Heather did such a wonderful job selecting everything, all of her hard work definitely showed! It was full of reds and pinks and all things love. I was so excited to rip my package open and play with all of my new goodies. To start with I finished half of the February challenge over on the AMR board.

Here is my layout about someone I truly love:


Of course, it is of my hot hubby!! He has this look he always gives me. No matter what mood I am in, it always makes me smile. Even though he drives me crazy sometimes, I love that boy more than anything.

Here is my layout about something I love:


I had to go with Diet Pepsi. I usually have one a day. It’s just like people and their coffee (which I could really give or take), if I don’t have one a day I start to feel cranky. I am know its not good for me, but I love that stuff!!

Ken is off skateboarding this evening with his buddies, so I hope to finish the challenge and create some more pages.

Have a gooder!!

Where Does the Time Go!?!?

Wow, I can’t believe how long it has been since I posted (so much for my unofficial resolution). Things have been super busy around here, which seems to becoming the norm. I have managed to scrapbook a bit, but nearly as much as would like.

I decided to try and re-organize me craft room. I went through all of my paper and embellishments and purged!! I can’t believe all of the stuff I got rid of. I am passing everything on to my friends and whatever they do not want I am going to donate. It was kind of depressing thinking of all of the money that I spent on everything, but it felt even better to downsize my collection.

The room isn’t perfect yet, but as the Hot-Hubby says, at least I can see floor ;)

One thing I did finish this last little while was my sister’s album!! Here are the last pages that I did. The paper I used was from my first kit from All Moments Remembered. Heather did such a fab job selecting everything in the kit. I love it, and can’t wait to play more.



I am off to clean off my table and hopefully get some more pages done!!
Have a Gooder!!
