running late on this post … but i think i'll make it before midnight. lol! this weekend has been crazy and hectic … i think we're all going to crash pretty hard come sunday night. and i will admit up front that i took 5 of these photos all in one day … on friday afternoon. but i'm totally fine with that. still tells the story of us. so here we go … week 6.
day 32 … february 1st. super bowl sunday. can you tell what team we're rooting for? lol! joe is a die-hard pittsburg steelers fan … has been forever. i could really care less … but i did actually sport a jersey for the game this year. and joe loves that my sister-in-law always gets just as into the game as he does … even if the rest of the family doesn't get that excited about it. my brother and my sister-in-law always host the super bowl parties. they have a huge theater room in their house … which is perfect for watching the game. and always lots of good food! luckily for us, the steelers won … otherwise, joe would have been really grumpy. and i will say that it was a really great game. photo provided by scott … the brother!
day 33 … february 2nd. i spend a lot of time on monday assembling my project 365 album … and filling out the journaling cards. i have already shown you the pages so far … but had to take a picture of the album. look at how fun all those pages look already … with just the journaling cards. it's going to be such a cool album at the end of the year!
day 34 … february 3rd. did you know i have a tiara? i do … and i got it for scrapbooking! i had one of my layouts chosen for the "our readers rock" section in the november/december issue of scrapbooks etc … and this was right after they changed the section a little to include more info from the designers. and one of the little "extras" we got … was this fun tiara. it's actually really nice too. i told the family that i was going to wear it whenever i scrapped … so that they could respect my creativeness and not interrupt. lol! but in all honesty … it's sort of tight on my head … and i think it may actually block my creativity a bit. and you'd never know it by this photo … but i was having a really crappy hair day when i took this. lol!
day 35 … february 4th. how cute is this little makeup bag? just a $5 bag from walmart … but i love the colors and love the polkadots. i'm not a morning person … so i'm never awake in time to fully get ready before the little ones arrive. so i do a little makeup when i wake up. then i'll finish sometime later in the day. so my makeup is always out downstairs (since joe sleeps during the day and i don't have access to our bedroom). and then every night i take it back upstairs. so i might as well have a cute bag to look at sitting out. lol!
day 36 … february 5th. alyssa achieved "legend" status in history this week. her teacher has different levels you can get to … including "hall of fame" and "legends" (he must be into sports). and these perfect scores on 2 recent tests moved her all the way to the "legend" status .. the highest you can get. and she's the only one in the 7th grade AND 8th grade to get it … and only the third person to get it in the 5 years that her teacher has done this. so proud of her!
day 37 … february 6th. another lost tooth for sarah. didn't i have a photo of that last week too?!?! lol! she had another loose one … and was driving me crazy showing it to me all week. totally grosses me out when she can bend it over and it's hanging out her gums. she's really been wanting to lose a tooth at school … because then they get this tooth necklace to keep it in until they get home. so i had to laugh when she came home holding this. i took this photo as soon as she walked in (i just happen to be taking pics around the house when she got home) … you can still see her backpack on. and the one that fell out? a molar, on her top right side.
day 38 … february 7th. how much do i love the desktop carousel from making memories? i love it a lot … and i have 2 of them. one holds all my most often used tools and supplies. this second one was originally for the girls to use … but they never really took advantage of it. so i re-claimed it for myself. lol! when i get some of my goodie boxes from the magazines … they'll have random things that i really don't have homes for. so i stick them all in here … in plain sight, where i can remember to use them. and i have to comment on how awesome i think this photo turned out. one would never know that it's like a dungeon up in the loft/studio area (seriously, no windows or light up there). lol!
