Simple Things Sunday

It has been a while since I have played along with Simple Things Sunday, the idea is to take a picture of something or someone during your week that simply made you smile!!

I was able to take my kids on a little holiday, and that alone made me smile!!

These were taken as we were riding up the Gondola at Sulphur Mountain in Banff

Many smiles, and excited looks were had on our trip, lots of "that was awesome"   

I am so lucky to be able to take time like these to spend with my kids, I love them so much!!

Happy Sunday

Thanks for stopping by!

Project Life #3

This week was my daughters 16th birthday, so the 2 page spread is dedicated all to her

Actually it is a 4 page spread

 This is her birthday party

The left hand page has 6x6 square pockets, so I put all the cards she received in there

The card that I made for her, it is an easel type card

The actual day of her birthday, with all of her appointments and what not

the journalling, 

I am loving sewing on my projects, I seen Michelle Wooderson doing it and gave it a try, it is addicting

I was able to stop in at a Scrapbook store the other day

picked up some neat journalling cards, and other cards I can"t wait to start using

in my Project Life book

I Made it Monday

I wanted to share a few project that I have done around the house lately.

I Have  Pet Peeve

Every afternoon, my whole family one at a time asks "what's for supper" 

this annoys me

Stupid little things, I know but it bothers me.

Pinterest, the place of all inspiration, taught me I could make my own white board from just a piece of glass.

Off to the clearance frame section of Michaels to find a nice frame

then to the sewing room for a nice scrap of fabric  

TaaaDaaa

A Menu board, and it works, now they just look at it and don't ask!

Happy Monday

38 and 1 Month

Ok, So I have made it 1 month of being 38, and if you recall I said I planned to ROCK 38!

So far, So good,  

(sorry for poor picture quality) 

I do wish I had done all of my measurements when I started this, just for curiosity sake, I did them now a month in.

I made the comment on another blog a few weeks back about my "Baby weight" being 9 years old, right then I knew it was time to do something about it, I am not getting any younger, and it is not leaving on it's own

I am proud of myself, I am making better life decisions. I am working out, faithfully, daily!

I am NOT drinking Coke anymore, that was not even a choice I had made to change, it just sorta happened, and if you knew me you knew I NEEDED a Coke every afternoon, now, I can hardly finish the can.

I am eating better, and feeling more confident! Happy to be ME, Happy about me!

I DO NOT own a scale, so I have no idea how much weight I have lost, but I have gone down at least 2 pant sizes, my husband asked if I could take my pants off without undoing them, as the children used to when they were little, and I could, slipped right off!!

I have added weights to my workouts, trying to build muscle at the same time.

The Sears spring catalogue came yesterday, with the cutest bathing suit on the cover, ( I tried to find the picture but can't) I told me husband if I looked like the model by summer I was buying that suit, he said to go ahead and buy it, because I would! 

Happy Friday
