Words of my life....

When I stand before God at the end of my life, I hope that I will not have a single bit of talent left and I can say, "I used everything you gave me." -Erma Bombeck

Lazy Weekend

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh





No plans for this entire weekend. I am SO grateful. Just my boys, myself, and my scrap stuff.





Altered Bank Challenge





At ScrapStreet we are having a little contest. Since we all need to save up for CHA 2009, what better way then with an altered bank! I just put the finishing touches on mine this morning. Have a look:














ScrapDango DT Contest

Two more days! Two more LONG days until we find out who made the team. I have to say, I have totally enjoyed being part of their contest and boards. They are a great group of women who have a great dynamic and have come up with some GREAT challenges. With everything I have seen, I do not envy having to make that decision.

Potty Training

So we are still in full swing of a little thing I like to call "torture mommy". I think boys MUST be harder to potty train than girls. From what I have heard from all my friends, they totally agree. Matthew tells me for the most part when he has to go, but if he is busy or having fun, he will just go in his pants and not even care. GRRR. Oh and I am not sure if you train them to go standing up right away? Anyone know???

Ok out of here for today. Need to make my little guy some lunch.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Love you!

Hey Brianne! LOVE your CHA jar! What a great idea! Now... i just need the discipline to keep the money in the jar! LOL! I know this is random, but I was reading some of the past messages on the ScrapbookSite forums about books and noticed you were into the Twilight series... did you read Breaking Dawn yet? OMG! I was at walmart at midnight the day it came out. I got so hooked on these books, I read all four in about a week and a half! LOL! I noticed you are reading PC Dawn books too... how are those? I am not into blood and guts and smut... kwim? Are these good... like Twilight good? Hugs and hope you are doing well! :)
