New Digital Camera

I got a new camera for Christmas....early present. I have to learn how everything works before Christmas morning so I can get some good pictures. Anyway, I took this picture of Bella last night and had to share it....she looks sooooo cute.

Update on the Zoo....

Simon....stretching (I woke him up with the flash)

Guinness & Bella

Bella, Sam & Guinness

Alex & Simon

Sam...he's such a ham for the camera (yes, he is laying on a pile of laundry!)

We just got a new couch. Tan Micro Suede....they love it, can you tell. I think they get more use out of it than we do.

Halloween

This is my nephew Tevin. Very creepy huh? He has giant screws coming out of his face.

Made with Pumpkin Face papers by Holly Jacot aka HollyAnn and Halloween fur by Lisa West.

My youngest son Alex as the Evil Jester.

Made with Digidreamer's A Little Batty Kit. This was a daily download kit for October.

My oldes son Nick as uh, not sure...creepy goulish thing.

Finally...

The photo's of us are few and far between; especially of me, I am usually the one with the camera. The was taken a couple of months after Jason and I started dating. Our first Christmas together. We were both a lot thinner then. I still have this dress; but I will never be able to breathe, let alone zip it up!

Kit used: Tuscan Villa 2 by Carrie Stephens @ Fishscraps

I am a BAD Blogger!

I was tagged a few times....duh....I didn't know how to publish the comments unless they were emailed to me. I guess the only ones that get emailed to me are Blogger accounts. Anyway, it's been over a month since I was tagged so I am not going to play at this time. I am sorry. I appreciate all the wonderful comments I received on my Lo's; it does make you feel good when someone else likes it too.

Oh yeah, Alice....I posted the info on the alpha you liked under the "First Try" title 2nd LO. It took some work, but I found it. I still haven't found the papers or kit that the rest of these LO's came from....but I will keep searching.

Time for something new...

We went to my company's annual picnic Saturday. They always have a lot of things for the kids like carnival midway games and they can win prizes, those huge inflated things the kids can bounce in, contests to win more prizes....and all the ice cream, soda, popcorn, peanuts & Cracker Jacks you can eat....trust me this kid can put away some Cracker Jacks!

It turned out to be a really nice day...started off a little chilly (upper 60's low 70's; yeah I know what your thinking...but when your used to 90 degrees day after day....70 is cool!)

Made this with "Colors of Fall" by Lynne Simmons (I think this is the name of the kit, she didn't really say...it was a daily download)

Jason and Guinness....like you couldn't tell. This pup has grown soooo fast. He is 5 months old now.

Made with "Autumn Freestyle" by Sara Amarie....Alpha by Natalie Bird

First Try

These are some of the very first digital scrapbook pages I made a while back...before I really knew what this was all about. I don't know the names of the kits, designers or even where I got them....Back then I didn't know this would be such a huge thing on the internet. Wow....if I knew then what I know now; I could be a millionaire....cornered the market on digital scrapbooking...yeah right, I can't even make one simple paper. LOL!

This one has got to be my favorite...wish I knew where I got this kit...and who it's from. If anyone know's, drop me a note...I would love to give the credit.

Well, these next few...above and below were from last year, but even then I didn't know the etiquette on digital scrapbooking. Just beginning to really get into it. I know better now.

I've been Tagged

Well, I didn't know anyone else ever viewed by blog....except family. This is awesome! Alice "Okblues Designs" tagged me yesterday.

"List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether or not they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LiveJournal/blog along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to."

I am a complete idiot when it comes to song titles and artists. I hear the songs everyday on the radio and bounce around in the car singin' along...but I couldn't tell you who sings it or the name of the song.

Here is a list of my 7 songs: I know these titles and artist because they are my favorites...plus I have the CD's.

"Sometimes" by Candlebox
"Blinders" by Candlebox
"Far Away" by Nickelback
"Zoe Jane" by Staind
"Savin' Me" by Nickelback
"Animals" by Nickelback
"He Calls Home" by Candlebox

Anything by Candlebox, Nickelback and Staind!

Here's my 7 tags:

Birthday Roses

It's My Birthday!!!

I will try not to cry....

Alex's first mohawk....

Well if you want to make a little boy's mom cry....shave his hair into a mohawk. Jason and Alex locked themselves in the bathroom this past Sunday evening and shaved their heads.....I wasn't expecting to see the mohawk at all.

Furry Critters

I guess this one is self explanatory....

A Guy Thing...

Just strolling along without a care in the world....aaahh, if life could possibly be that way.
