Layout - Week One Pics

Here is the layout I created of my week one pics.  (It's a two-page layout.)  As you can see from the pics, it was a very cold week in Florida.

Everything I used is from Michelle Batton. You can find the full credits for the left page here. Credits for the right page are here.

Here is the journaling for those who would like to read it.

Day 1: Got the new year started off right with a sushi dinner at Ankai. I do love my sushi.

Day 2: Got some work done in the backyard. David took down some Florida Holly and I helped haul it to the curb.

Day 3: Sazume is now under the blanket. It's the start of a very cold couple of weeks.

Day 4: This tree was the last of the Chrsitmas decorations still up in my office at work.

Day 5: It is 37 degrees in South Florida. That is so rare.

Day 6: Yes, that is ice on one of our cars. Brrr!

Day 7: I think this was my fourth cup of hot chocolate. There were many more cups to come.

Weekly Recap - February 8 - February 14, 2010

I can't believe another week has past. Time seems to be flying by. (Yet moving so slowly some days. lol)

I'll admit the first part of the week was very slow. I spent a good part of the week working on the first two challenges for ADSR5. You can see how they turned out on my ADSR5 blog.

Our Friday night "date night" was spent watching Beverly Hills Chihuahua together. We didn't do much, cause Saturday night was our big night.

On Saturday, David went with a friend of ours to pick up a "new to us" washer and dryer. We haven't had a working dryer in years, so I was very excited about that. After he got home, we both spent some time working on the garage, so we could get it in. We then headed to a local Thai and Sushi restaurant where we celebrated Valentine's Day.

Sunday was officially Valentine's Day. I gave David a subscription to Motorcycle Classics magazine. I received a tin of Godiva's chocolates and a stuffed animal. We also took a very long nap after church. :O)

That's about it for last week. Not a lot going on. I think this coming week will be much bigger.

I do want to close with another layout to share.


The picture was taken at Christmas time. And yes, that is me. The layout was created using Just Love and Borders in a Snap #7 by Merkeley Designs.

Weekly Recap: February 1 - February 7, 2010

Yes, this was supposed to go up yesterday. But I'll be honest, I was too tired to remember. lol You'll know why in a minute.

Well, the week started out uneventul enough. Then on Tuesday, one of our dogs, Sanosuke, got sick while we were at work. He's fine now, but it was a lovely way to be greeted upon arriving home.

On Friday, we started celebrating David's birthday early. AT work, there was a cake for him. And then for dinner it was all you can eat steak at the Golden Corral.

Saturday morning, we started the day with another trip to Golden Corral. This time for breakfast. Then we headed to the Savannas to spend a little time in the sun. After a quick trip to Best Buy, we were off to Cowboys in Ft. Pierce for lunch/dinner. If you live anywhere near a Cowboys (there are three: Ft. Pierce, Okeechobee and Sebring) then you have to go. The BBQ is wonderful.

Our Sunday began at 1:30 a.m. so we could attempt to see the last night launch of the Shuttle. The shuttle launches about 2.5 hours north of us. Alas, it was canceled nine minutes prior to takeoff due to low clouds. The roads were so busy after the launch ended that it took like two hours to get to I-95. Needless to say, after we got home it was off to bed for us. And the day included an afternoon nap.

The layout I did yesterday will be going up on my ADSR5 blog. However, here is one that I finished on Saturday. Yes, this is another one of our wedding pics.

This layout was created using Winter Wonderland, an OScraps collab.

That was out week. I'll be back again on Sunday with another update. And who knows, maybe you'll see me before then. lol

Busy Layout Week

It's been a busy week for me layout wise.  I shared a couple of my layouts with you yesterday.  I am working on one more layout that I hope to be able to share with you on Sunday. Of course, I have a couple of layouts to share with you today.

The pictures for this first layout were taken when we went out to Lake Okeechobee on the day after Christmas.  Alas, my camera was having issues that necessitated it being sent to Canon, so a lot of the photos I took that day can't be saved.  But I did get a few I could use.

I created this layout for the February Got It challenge at OScraps.  If you are looking for a challenge to get your juices flowing, this one is always fun.



This layout was created using Hey Lady by Merkeley Designs (the ribbon and the flower were recolored) and Frippery Flowers by Tracy Ann Digital Art.  The font is MT Script Bold.

This next photo is David and I leaving the Dallas Temple on our wedding day.  I know I scrap my wedding photos a lot, but I just love working with them.  One day I hope to scrap an entire album.



This layout was created using Hope and Paper Hearts both from Merkeley Designs.

Grab Bags Are Here

I tried to have a new post for y'all up last night. But I had nothing but problems with it. It is currently saved as a draft. Hopefully I will be back in a couple of day with that post.

For now though, it is Grab Bag time at The Digichick. And I have two I want to share with you.

This first grab bag is from Michelle Batton. Here is the preview.



And here is my layout using the grab bag. Everything on this page came from the grab bag, (And yss, that cute little baby is me. :O) )


The second grab bag is from 4 Shades of Blue Designs. Here is the preview for her grab bag.

 
Here is my layout using the grab bag.  Everything on the layout, except for the alpha, comes from the grab bag. The alpha is My Acrylic Alpha also by 4 Shades of Blue Designs.


That's all I have for today. Hope everyone has a wonderful Friday!!
