Life moves on…

Ok..so we had a mixed evening…Sad, triumphant, hectic, draining…all that in one night is quiet a bit!  Sad…My DH grandfather has been on a feeding tube for a while and they finially took it out…His awesome soul won’t be with us much longer :(  The DH is holding up pretty well…I just wonder about the rest of the fam…they will be coming to see us today so I’m sure I’ll hear about it tonight….Since I know Hals reads this…Hugs to everyone and know I’m thinking bout ya!!

Triumphant, that would be on the scrapping front…The Amazing Digi Scrapping Race second challenge went up yesterday :)  And it was a collaboration!!  And yeah well…if I may say so I think we (schmoopie and I) Rocked it!!  Head over to the Scrap page and take a gander at our creative genius’ melding :)

Hectic, well I think trying to get the next nights dinner started at midnight rates as nuts!!  DH works late tonight and I’m soooo not a cook so he started all of it last night so mostly I just need to heat stuff up!  I know…gastly…I don’t cook…or rather I don’t like to cook…if I have to, I can cook some things just not a huge variety of things but a few is better than none right?

Now the easy thing is the draining…of course after all that I was beat..and add to it I’m still fighting this cold, snuffly, achy sick thing!!  I just needed to crash and talk about NOT wanting to get up!  Well I did…and now I’m at work…gonna muddle through the day and hopefully be with it enough to enjoy my company tonight…So that is all for now…be back soon with more rambling! :)

Christina Renee Thursday Challenge Get over there and play!

That my friends is a bit of inspiration for this way fabulous event!! All about 1! I know this is going to sound daunting but you can do it! I swear!

Use only 1 of any product you place on your layout…Example…1 staple, 1 paper, 1 frame, 1 ribbon, 1 button…I think you get the idea! This is ONE OF EACH PRODUCT, so for example Christina’s Grommet overlays count as 1 since they are all together!

The only other rule…this is Christina’s Grand Opening so you gotta use her stuff!!! 85% of your layout must be Christina’s products (NEW OR OLD!) for you to qualify. Get to scrapping and over here and link us up! We wanna see what all you amazing scrappers create! You have until 9:00 am CST on Saturday July 14th to leave a link here.

Now what do you get for creating this wonderful layout you ask (other than a fabulous memory for yourself)?? Everyone that participates will receive a 25% coupon! (only 1 coupon for per person for the week) And ONE (hahahaha pun intended) lucky lady will be the winner of a $5.00 Gift Certificate to Christina’s Fabulous store.

And of course because it is Christina’s Grand Opening and she is just over the top…well…there is even a GRAND PRIZE!! If you participate in all the challenges you will be qualified for the grand prize of 3 months worth of Cristina Renee Design products FREEEEEE!!!! And we all know how awesome that would be..

Ok…enough with rules and such..GOOOOO SCRAP!!!!!!!!!!!

Update** To Qualify for the $5.00 Gift certificate your layout must be completed in the 48 hour time frame! To be eligible for the GRAND PRIZE you MUST GET A LAYOUT DONE FOR EACH CHALLENGE BY JULY 17th MIDNIGHT!**

That is a loaded question…today is a breather, excitement, busy, the calm before the fire….Now would you like to know why it is all those things??

First off, the move from WV is DONE!!! Ok..so at least mostly…the furniture is all in the house, or houses and now for the boxes and pictures :) But if you’ve ever moved you know it takes a while to get through all those!! :) The drive there wasn’t bad, but the drive back was way way long!!! And can you believe it…I actually took pictures on the drive there!! well I had tooo! Savannah spent a good three hours telling us how much she loved tunnels and there were two on the way!! I couldn’t believe she remembered!! :) So…see…I had to take pictures and do a layout! I actually took several pictures of the move and did a layout of it too but darn it…I crashed..so I’ll get that one up soon..but here is my tunnels one :)
