Layouts...

I am putting some layouts in my Secret Scrapper gallery and thought I'd post a few here too. This is me 8 months prego with Paris and alsothe day Paris was born. 3 pages I have in her book done....I love to scrap (by the way).....

Curious...........

I am curious who is stalking my blog :) SOOOOOO, leave me comment by Oct 7th and you will be entered in a drawing (or Blog Candy) for something fun and wonderful! A little basket full of things I love! And I do have "fun and cute" taste (at least I think so!). I am sooooooo curious, as my count went from 0 to 600 in less then 1 month! Yay for blogs! I know, I stalk some as well....so now say HI!!!!

PS~ Once the basket gets made and looks all cute I'll post a picture....and yes, I'll ship it anywhere in the world for you!!

It Is Officially Soccer Season

Well the soccer season has officially started. Practice is 3 nights a week between the 3 kids, plus games every weekend. 3 this weekend for us, 2 for Evan. Then 1 for Paris and Aiden. Here are some photos of them at practice and Evan's game. Oh and 1 of Paris and her cousins at dance (combo). That started up after a break too.

Nothing else too new....catching up and relaxing around the house today. I ran all my errands all week long while the kids are in school. Paris has Fridays off, so that is my "home" day. I try not to take her into store and such. I ended up spending more with her around....she just gives me a look with her "doe" eyes and bats her eyelashes and I melt....in an instance she can do no wrong and I basically give her the freedom to get her goodies (espcially at Target, boy she loves the $1 section but forgets the jewelry section is NOT the $1 section). Anyhoo, I hope to scrap this weekend and get some layouts up on Secret Scrapper. I am returning Oct 1st as a Design Team Member to the website and I am excited. I have been on break with them since I was gone most of the summer traveling (thx Mandy for holding my spot)!!

Happy Friday..........or TGIF as I loved to say every Friday as a child. Boy my Friday nights as a child consisted mostly of good TV (anyone remember "Just The 10 of Us") and that was our official pizza night! An unwinding night for my family growing up!!

OH MY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am in Heaven with a new little web store, check it out....as Liz would say "YUMMO"!

Here is Miss Eloise.....really, if you read the books or seen the movies, it is Paris' twin :) OH and Miss Paris took this photo of her beloved Eloise in her room last week...yes, I have a young photographer on my hands now! Like Mama like Daughter...

He's 6!!

Aiden turned 6 and we had a birthday week!! Besides the cards and gifts that arrived in the mail all week, Aiden had a day of birthday fun and also a birthday dinner at Claim Jumper. Here is his fun birthday highlights.....he is officially 1/2 way to 12 years old...ha ha ha :)

I think it is almost FALL!!!

Wow, the 2nd day of a below 100 degree temperature here in the Phx area! I think this might be a sign of Fall...I am so happy! The start of the Holiday season kicks off with Halloween (in our home). I also am very excited to decorate my front door area outside with hay, cornstalks, pumpkins, a scarecrow and mums! I don't have any interesting "Fall" photos to share, not yet anyway! But I just wanted to say "Happy Fall Y'All!!"....

A Scrappin' We Will Go!!!!

Last weekend was soooooo fun!!!! Started the weekend with the Bazzill Paper sale, then dinner at Claim Jumper Friday evening (with Liz, Teresa, April, Debbie, Amanda & her friend). Then all day Saturday my Aunt Laureen and I went to the Convention at Civic Plaza...WAY fun. Loved the Basic Grey class! Sunday was a "put away & organize" day!!! A catch up day of sorts!! Here is pics from the weekend!!!! I wish I would have brought my camera to the Bazzill sale, what a site!!! Hot sweaty 45 minute line and Paris looking NOT happy about it!!!

Late Labor Day Pics...........

Our Labor Day weekend was just staying home. We got a "slip n' slide" and some "dippin dots" and the kids had fun outside!!!

Date Night with the Kids

I forgot to post this over the summer. I was WAY too busy I guess! Aiden & Paris went to their 1st concert (other then the Wiggles) this summer. The Police. They went with Robb & I while Evan was at soccer camp. Evan on the other hand has been to a ton of concerts....Rolling Stones (twice), Billy Joel, Jason Mraz, David Gray, etc etc...so he was not upset to miss out.

So first we went to the Spaghetti Factory on Central. Wow, I have been going there for years, since I was a child with my great-grandma! It was great!!!! My kids' first time. Then off to the concert. We sat in my dad's suite @ US Airways Arena, and the kids had fun. They knew a few songs and we left about 3/4 through the show. They started dozing off! So we beat the traffic and left right before the "encore set". So here are my pictures from June 2007!

Ears are pierced!!!

Besides last Thursday being Paris' 1st day of preschool we also had a "girls day" (since she only goes 1/2 day and the boys were still at school). I took her to Arista Curls at the mall for a pedicure & manicure, and also we got her ears pierced at the Piercing Pagoda. OH, also what trip to the mall would be complete without a visit to the Disney Store?????
