two days after christmas...

and i have been feeling lazy! yesterday i cleaned up the mess and vacuumed the house, but i stayed in my pyjamas all day! we had leftover turkey with all the trimmings for dinner, yeah, i love leftover turkey, it tastes even better to me than the first day, because i did not have to make it!

today i didn't do much of anything either, got up late, read a magazine, scrapped a little and then did my walk on the treadmill, the first time since i was sick last sunday.

i will leave you with a layout i did a few weeks ago with some photos of the girls that i took when we went shopping just before santa arrived at the mall.

elki's unusual art!

i made this layout last week about an unusual way that elki drew this picture! she did it completely upside down and if i was not there to witness it myself, i would have had trouble believing it. she was laying on the kitchen floor and zoe was helping me take photos of her drawing this cute little picture of her family. now how she could do it, i don't know because she is only 4, but then again i think she is quite talented!!! :)

busy weekend...

usually we have no plans for the weekend, but end up seeing the family on one of the days. this weekend it will be busy, tomorrow i am treating lisa to a day at the spa which is her belated birthday (which was in june) present. and sunday it is a annual 'cookie bake', so the whole family will be here baking and taste testing! ;)

here is a layout it did from when my sister-in-law and i took a walk by the river in the fall.

a.c. blog challenge!

this week it was to make a holiday card with 2 a.c. products. i had this pp which i was dying to use, so here is what i came up with!



supplies:
cs: bazzill
pp, rub-ons & chipboard: american crafts

tfl!

the rockettes...

we were lucky enough to go and see their show at the bell center at the beginning of november. even though it was not my idea to go, i was pleasantly surprised to enjoy the show as much as i did, but then again, our fantastic seats might have had something to do with that! the dancing was fantastic and the costumes were absolutely gorgeous. here is a layout i did about it and the best part of the show as far as i was concerned was the toy soldier dance, well walk actually!



sorry about those 2 black marks, they must be on my scanner and i didn't notice them til just now when i clicked it bigger! :(

yellow is the theme today!

since i just posted a photo of my lemon tarts on my photobug blog i thought i would post this layout i did of elki and her new favorite color that i did last week! she is too funny because lisa would try and get her to wear yellow, the color of sunshine, all summer and she refused (lisa's getting pay back now, because she used to do the same to me when she was young), but now, she only wants yellow!!!

finally, another a.c. blog challenge!

even though it's not me that is thankful, i thought that justin being more 'grateful' on his 8th birthday would be even better!



supplies:
cardstock, pp, thickers, rub-ons and button: all american crafts
other rub-ons: hot off the press & karen foster
pen: signo uniball

tfl!
