Oh Boy.....
Love this photo....might even be one of my all time favorites! I had such a great week this week, the sun was shining most of the week and I don't know but there is something about the sunshine that makes me Happy!!!! Life is busy....i mean really busy.... I am teachin 4 times a week, working in the store once a week and it is just busy.....(don't want to sugar coat it)....that is a Manda saying.... I love it though, so cute! Cole went to Court this mornin for another stunting fine...(okay he ony has had three but........) I know heh? my sweet little Cole? (better include a picture of him so that you can see how truly adorable he is...)

Told you he's adorable! Good thing I LOVE him! I told Manda last night that it's a good thing we LOVE our children....cause he is a monkey! ANyways life goes on and we all deal with our sweet little angels and they grow up in anyways! We are on Layout # 8 for next week, so there are 4 to go! I told Manda if she could just hold off on havin this baby it would be all good.... like maybe the end of May instead of the 21st... I don't think she minded, well I know I wouldn't have! lol Actually I think it has gone fast for her... can't believe it's almost here actually! I am sure she feels the same way! Sharla is about 8 weeks behind her so they are both almost there! Can't wait! Speaking of that did i tell you all that I found not one but two antique scales on ebay....(i will share those pics soon!) Imagine the photo opportunities, that is going to be so much fun! K enough for one day, chat with you all soon!

I LOVE it! sweet little memories caught on film.... he is such a little sweetie.... with his cute little grin and his sweet little laugh... he brings so much joy... so much life to our lives....for those of you in the shabby chic class, don't worry about that sweet little kissy face picture (i did tell you all that I would take a picture of you like that though!!!) just concentrate on that special memory that you have caught on film.....(or digital!)

Remember when....
thirty seemed so old.... now looking back it's just a stepping stone.....(lyrics from Alan Jacksons Remember when song.)
where does it go? the days, the months, the years? okay I had a birthday last week.... I decided that I am not getting any older than 29... is that okay with everyone? good, I thought so....lol
On a serious note though I remember sitting in my cute little house....( i thought it was cute!)21 years old....my hubbie having a surprise party for me... i think I was pregnant with Shawn by that time, not sure if I knew it yet though....and thinking I was so old......NOT!!!!!!!!!!! ps just for the record my mom bought me a microwave for that birthday! lol so funny looking back and thinking i was old.... now here i am.... 15 years later.... okay not really......23 years later.... just forget about that number though okay? it will be our little secret..... shhhhhhhhhh.....okay smarten up Lynn.....

Here is the layout for next week.... cute heh? Those cute little pics.... gotta love those things.....
Not that I am really in to pics of myself although I do think it is important just in case..... Sharla took this picture..... she is good isn't she!......:)
my sweet little Shalaina... well 13 year old Shalaina... so yea attitude and all the good things that go along with the whole 13 year old.... but you get where I am going with this....
and of course our cute little sweetie that is walkin by the way... i know how cute is that? it is so cute when he follows Cole and Shay down the hall..... oh and Shar..... (she is sitting beside me so I have to include her! lol) Anyways hopefully everyone has a fabulous weekend!

These are the moments.....
that change our lives forever....
Ever wonder why we scrapbook??? I mean scrapbook the way we do today..... all the embellishments, the beautiful paper, the paint.... the ink....the bling, the sewing.... buttons, bits and bobs and so on....I look at the shots that I get, they aren't all fabulous.... although some of them are, aren't they! lol No seriously though I look at the photos that I get of that particular moment, and whether it is good or not, that particular moment changes my life.... maybe not in a huge way, although some of those shots do for sure.... but it is a moment that I will never forget.... Doing my shabby chic classes and seeing the photos that everyone chooses is the best part of my whole class... I LOVE that.... I Love seeing how everyone feels when they get their layout done and they LOVE it..... Then I love it and a moment in my life has changed forever.....
In this layout I love the way Shawn and Shar look... their lives have even changed a lot since then and that was only last summer, but for that particular moment they were friends, they get along great and I have to be honest except for the occasional bugging they always have.....but I LOVE that....that sweet little moment.....One little moment completely standing still.....

Enjoy your long weekend everyone!

Lynn

I LOVE this picture of my youngest! 2oo2 how the time flies! my little peanut with her cute little primary coloured toe socks on... remember when toe socks were so fun? Life today is busy, busy being a mom... busy teaching...(and loving it!) i have to admit today when I was thinking of being done at the end of May I thought to myself.... Really??? May......? k..... well it is going to fly by....I know that and you know that.... are you going to miss me over the summer? i will miss all of you.... ok enough of that gotta share some photos from the last couple of weeks.....
