Had a fun morning over Renee's and I learned today that I do like Mimosa's!  I also ordered some great smelling candles including Porch lemonade and herbal mint.

 
Remember my Target find  that I was using for my punches and paints?  Well finally the weather was warm enough for a new coat of paint.  I picked up some black spray paint the other day and asked Joel if he would paint this for...

Supposed to be the day we get lots done in the yard.  Unfortunately not much going to happen because of that heavy rain we got yesterday, its just too wet to have the tractor on the grass (we'll make more of a mess is what I'm told)
So that's good and bad news... because I had so much fun scrapping last night and REALLY wanted to carry it into today and now hopefully I can? 
I also have a candlelight...

And I get to spend the day at a crop with friends!  I loaded the car last night so this morning I can get myself ready and head out the door!  Hopefully I packed everything, although this time I won't be as far away as say Columbus when I forgot my pictures and had my hubby meet me half way to bring them to me.  I'm not far enough for him to do that - I would be driving home for anything I might...

The gallery was updated at Work in Progress and I just love what everyone did with their kits.  Jana Eubanks was the guest designer this month and she did an amazing job on her layouts here!
Here are some of the layouts I did.  I had a blast working with this kit, with all the mini books and the gorgeous papers...

My devotion to Mike Rowe and Dirty Jobs is displayed in this layout.  If you've...

Nervous and excited she left tonight on her trip, while driving a few cars behind the bus she began texting me about how excited she was, talking with her friends and getting ready to watch the movie Juno.  They have so many things to do I'm sure its going to be a blast.  Before they leave the Sheriff comes in with the drug sniffing dog to make sure nobody is bringing anything that they shouldn't. ...

I finished reading the book Five things I can't live without and I really enjoyed it - obviously since I couldn't accomplish much of anything else until this book was done.  Now I'll need to create my list of the 5 things I can't live without?  I picked up Augusten Burroughs new book today also.  A wolf at the table.  I have read most of his books (and while my husband says I have grown up sheltered...

Not getting too many projects done, though I am getting some reading done.  I started the book Five things I can't live without by Holly Shumas. Its one of those books that you like from the moment you start reading.  Needless to say, I'm half way done.
I also finished up some work for my friend Debbie in Michigan for her store so that's one thing to check off my list.  As for scrapping...nothing! ...

Okay so here we are on the ride at Disney's Animal Kingdom Expedition Everest.  I think it was one of the kids favorite ride's during our trip to Disney in February.  Chelsea wanted me to post it so she can copy and use it at school.
The first picture is Chelsea and I are in front row: (notice us holding hands), second row: my sister and Lisa, third row: Lisa's son Jamey and my brother in law Tony.

Yesterday was a fun Monday.  Starting my day the usual way heading into work, but only stayed for a few hours and I was off to meet my sister and Kim at Thyme Restaurant for lunch. It was a great meal and great conversation. 
After lunch I headed back to work for a couple more hours until it was time to pick up Zach from school and head over to the grocery store to pick up the usual things we...
