Tonight

Ray and I went out to eat in a snowstorm. I thought it might have been too dangerous to be on the roads - the pictures don't show what it really looked like.
I was accepted to be on a creative team for a digital designer - I am so EXCITED! I can't start soon enough:)

Birthday Girl

Today was my sisters 18th birthday. We surprised her with cake and presents this afternoon and here are the pictures to prove it. It has been snowing horribly for the last few days so we didn't stay long but it was nice to spend time with her!
The kids were way more into the cake and ice cream!

Here is my layout for week . I have found that it isn't hard getting them done - the hardest part is picking which pictures to use. I also found that by doing the entire two page layout in advance it's very easy to add the photos and journaling and VOILA! you are done:)

My poor babies are so sick! Abby is just getting into hers but little Lucas is absolutely awful. He hasn't eaten in 2 days and can barely keep water down. We were at the doctor's toady and he said there is a vicious bug going around however he needs to be monitored for hydration. If he isn'tbetter by Thursday then there may be more drastic measures taken...I am praying that he snaps out of it.

My life has basically been vomit, lysol, vomit laundry, runny diapers and more vomit...I think I need a vacation!

There they are - cute as ever even when sick!

Project 365

So I have decided to start over with the project. I have a really cool kit that will help make the pages look more uniform and once the year is over I plan on having the pages made into a hard cover book. I don't know if I will continue this for any other years but I am committed to getting it done this year! Here are the new pages that I did for the first week of the year.

Here is my first layout for the 365 Project. The picture taking part isn't the hard part for me though, it's choosing which pictures to include! I can't wait to see what the year brings:)

Here is a new page that I finished today...little Lucas minus the background of the zoo picnic benches. I thought it came out pretty cute:)

The new year has been great so far...let's hope that the remainder of the year goes as smoothly. Here are a few pictures from the hockey game that we went to on Saturday. The kids have gone with Ray before but this was my first hockey game in over 15 years, it was exciting and better yet because the Otters won!

Here is a picture of Ray and I at a friends party last night. We went without the children but all of our friends have kids and they were there so we felt a little out of place, lol. It is always a good time and we enjoyed ourselves but were happy to get home to see the kids.

I also took my first picture for my 365project. This weeks theme is "favorite things". I will post a layout every week so make sure to stop back!

And last but not least a few new pics of the kids...melt down city around here lately!
