Week 21

Happy to still be on track this week.  The most exciting thing this week was that we traded our 2007 Hyundai Elantra for the new 2011 SONATA!!!  It's much roomier and it's a six speed!  But my favorite thing is that it has bluetooth for talking on the cell phone hands-free!

I guess the next most exciting thing was finding a "fresh" recipe in a magazine.  I gave it a try and L♥VE it!!  Of course at this moment I can't put my hands on the magazine . . .  I wanted to post the recipe to share.

Oh well, I'll update with the recipe when I find where I put the magazine.

The LO was made using Magkikikota, a collab by Starry Eyed Designs and Trish H. Designs, both from ESS.

On track AGAIN ! ; )

I have persevered and am back on track again with my P365.  I am determined to complete this year and then have it made in to a photo book. 

Week 20 ~ May 16-22

This was made using a new collab from ESS - - Cherry Lemonade

Week 19

Mother's Day started this week.  I went to brunch, after riding around a few places in an attempt to have breakfast it got to be almost time for lunch, with Mike and the girls -- it was yummy!  I got flowers from the girls and even a bunch of peonies from Buck, Mallory's boyfriend.  I thought it was extremely sweet of him!!

It's that time again at work -- busy, busy, busy.  I do not like the month of May in the Guidance Department... diplomas, names spelled perfectly, awards & scholarships, senioritis and all other grades with spring fever, everyone's crabby and anxious for the summer break!  I am also anxious for the summer break when I am only one of about 10 people in the whole damn school!!!!  Peace and quiet!  : )

Mallory ended up at the ER miserable and being tested for strep which thank the Lord it was negative.

I went for my "annual" (5 years after the fact) eye exam.  I must say that having my eyes dilated would have be almost as annoying as a pap smear!!!!!  The cheesy "glasses" they gave me to wear popped off when I walked out of the clinic and I was BLINDED!  Ended up with a nasty headache.

So here it is, another week in pictures!!

Kit:  Enchanted Studio Scraps Collab ~ ~ Cherry Lemonade

Week 18

May 2-8 is aka Week 18.

I used the Enchanted Studio Scraps MAY MEGA ~ Garden Party for this LO. 

What a terrific week of REALaxation!!!  Awesome!

Mike's job sent him to VA Beach for a school, and I got to go with!!  During the week when schools are still in session ... can you say peaceful?!?!?

Week 17

I'm catchin' up!!

~  Week 17  ~

Created using Chris Greiser's NATURAL WONDER kit and the fonts, Trajan & Californian.

The week was buzzing with PROM stuff, from getting the nails done, deciding what to do with the hair, to finalizing dinner plans, not to mention "the dress".  Saturday morning there was still stiching being done on "the dress"... but it was all worth it because Mallory loved it!  Personally I was not quite happy with a few things about it, like the cleavage and the zipper OR the fact that I forgot to put the eyehook clasp on it!!!  However, I will NEVER sew another dress again!!!!  ; )

Both of the girls had fun and made it home safely -- that makes my heart happy!!

 

Allison was escorted by Jake.  And she looked stunning in her strapless Calvin Klein!  Her friend, Olivia, did her hair and saved her a big chunk of cash!!  They went and had dinner at Ruth Chris Steak House.

Mallory went with her boyfriend, Buck.  She was so happy in her "made by mom", plum colored gown -- it was a beautiful color for her.  And while I learned my lesson about sewing prom dresses, she learned the lesson of paying $75 to have your hair done professionally only to have it 'fall' before dinner due to humidity!  It still looked fantastic!  They went to Yamato's Japanese Steak House for dinner.

Week 16, better late than never!

Oh my, once again I've fallen a wee bit behind in my P365.  Only in the compilation and layout creation.  My photos are a daily activity.

So here is April 18-24 aka Week 16.

I put this together using a template by BTA Designs

and the Enchanted Studio Scraps May Mega, Garden Party.
