it's been two weeks since my last "random tidbits: facebook style" post. which means it's time for a new one. i've even added in a few photos, to break up all the wordage 😉 never have i had a 2 yr old say "hi" and "bye" to me so many times in one day. little…

i've been down for the count with a tweaked back for a few days now. this happens to me at least once a year, and it never gets any funner. lol! i thought it was funny, when i was digging around for the links for this post, and came across THIS. that's the last time…

i wanted to share a layout from the july/august issue of creating keepsakes with you today. when i received my copy of the issue, the first thing i noticed was that you couldn't really read my journaling. so i've been patiently waiting until i could share a closer look at this layout.  as seen in the July/August 2010 issue of…

i had some layouts to share. but quite frankly, i'm too tired to type them up. and i don't want to just plop them up, with telling the stories behind them. so i figured this was a good time to do another version of "facebook status randomness", just like i did a few weeks ago.…

my niece, jovaughnna, is starting her senior year of high school tomorrow. hard to believe how much she's grown up, since i first met her. she asked me if i would take her senior pictures for her, and i was more than happy to help her out. we met up one evening last week, and…

  i got news yesterday that i would be a part of the 2010-2011 pebbles design team! i'm so excited for this amazing opportunity! i have been a huge fan of pebbles products from the beginning, and they have only gotten funner and cuter over the years. i cannot wait to get started! and you have to check out the rest of the team,…

i wanted to put together a special gift for haley's parents, when it was time for her to leave us for preschool. i have created a ton of layouts of her over the years, and taken a ton of photos. someone once asked me if i give the layouts of the daycare kids to their…

havn't shared a photo of my island lately. it goes through stages, depending how much is going on in my life. sometimes, it's clean and empty. meaning my life is totally under control. rofl! that was funny. what? my life, under control? yeah, right. lol! 99% of the time, it's covered in a wide variety of stuff.…
