I'm So Excited!!!

I made it! I made It! I made it into round 2 at My Scrapbook Nook!
Our first challenge is "Keepin' It Real"

Interpret this anyway using a recent self portrait taken by yourself. Take a look at the example.

I am open for any ideas?!?

Happy Anniversary

Today Marc and I celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary.
I can't believe it!!!

Time for Some Scrapbook Layouts

I have entered a contest over at My Scrapbook Nook. So I have lots of layouts to share!!!

This was from our vacation to Williamsburg last month.


Here we had to use the same picture more than once.


This one comes from strong emotion challenge. How all alone we felt after Contessa's diagnosis tp having a great online family for support.


This one we had to tell about our attributes but we could not say wife, mother, sister, etc.. We also had to use a Becky Flak Sketch. Love those!! And a butterfly. I was stumped until I looked up attributes describing my zodiac sign, libra. I did not list the true but unflattering attributes. (laziness:))


This one called for the use of over 20 buttons on a page. Not my favorite layout but I did get the 5 points I was after:)


A Two page spread showing Contessa and her friends at Heroes on Horseback tacking the horses. Not for the contest, but one I have not shared.



These two I did a while back. They are from my trip to Atlanta in January with my new friend, Pam. The World of Coke.


Lunch at Johnny Rockets.

That is all I hace for now. I have about 5 layouts I still need to scan that are laying on top of my scanner for the month. I also need a new album because I have pages 4 inches thick that need put away. Make that 2 albums. I know I will fill one right away.

A Little Closer To Summer Slow Down

Well, we survived our crazy weekend with the MS Walk. This year Contessa and I stepped up and managed the walk here on Hilton Head.


The video that we shot back in March is finally up. Click on the picture below to check it out.




Contessa received her first pair of diamond earrings from Mr. Perry at Perry's Estate Jewelers.

We raised just over $10,500. Our goal was $12,000. Please consider helping us meet our goal by donating today. Click here.
