Lazy Lazy Sunday...

and celebrating my lazy lazy butt today....I am linking you elsewhere!!

My BFF Lynn has been a busy little someone (I am having a vision of the ant and the grasshopper, only because I'm feeling so lazy today .. how amusing)...ANYWAY --

LYNN'S HUB PAGE --READ IT BECAUSE IT ROCKS

She has some great information -for those who travel. it is EXCELLENT info for those who DO NOT (ahem, me) because you can live vicariously through her descriptions and amazing photos ;)

A Sketchy Feelin'....

well, thanks to the awesome chickies at SketchyThursdays blog! :)

My contribution to their sketch from last week - some fave random photos!

Feelin' Hot Hot Hot...

It's a scorcher for sure. I, for one, am not going out in the burning-sun-which-hates-me-a-lot. Sooooo....what's an April to do? The best-ever-Steve left a little bit ago and the chickens of mine return this evening. What am I to do? I'll share some layouts from this week...and then I think I'll scrap some more ;)

TheMoments .... loads of challenges and game nights to inspire and light the scrappin fire under your booty to get your creativity flowin ;)
"perspective" I uploaded without the journaling (because ... I am duh sometimes LOL) that was for a sketch chllenge :)

"My mom says I'm awesome. Therefore it's true"....LOVE THAT PAPER -- this was done for another challenge. . a lift of the talented Diana ;)

Yet another lift challenge - to lift our fearless leader Pat ;) THis little 8x8 has tons of stuff...glitter stamped stars (on the lower left, which did NOT scan all that well), misting, white mist made with paint/water in a MiniMister -awesome). The banner is also stamped (used for the half-circle) and I used flocking powder for some further texture :)

And so goes another week!! More posts of more layouts, hopefully I'll be able to crank out something creative today as well :)

Journaling Challenge #5

Your challenge for August's Journaling Challenge (#5) @ TheMoments, should you choose to accept it is as follows:

This month, we are capturing "favorites" with journaling. Your faves or the favorites of your loved ones. This could be a favorite TV show, favorite song, favorite movie, favorite person, (for those working on 'me' albums, also very important!)

I chose to journal about my kids' favorite sleepy-time pals -I guess now technically members of the family. Capture some memories that will give "awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww I remember that" moments years from now!!

Lazy day...

Me and the boyfriend just watching the clouds roll on by...
We had some wicked thunderstorms last night.

When they were over, these were up in the sky...

He told me "doesn't that look like Heaven is sneaking a peek?"

Which is odd, because I always tell the kids when you can see sunbeams streaming through and around clouds like this that it's your loved ones in Heaven saying hello...

*love* us together! We are adorable!

The last one - the clouds were actually blue. ULTRA cool.

The BF had such a good artsy eye for things yesterday - I just snapped the pics ;)

Love love love the lazy days!
