Some Wedding Layouts

I have begun the fun task of making an album for Shannon and Rob. It is so much fun to do some girly pages and use some bling and lace. Here are the beginning of the layouts. There will be a lot more to come. I am just waiting on photos from their photographer. These are photos I took with my camera.

and also this one:

and a page on the bridesmaids, Lori and Kelsi:

Basic Grey is one of my favorite paper companies and I used "Porcelain for two of these wedding layouts and also bought the new collection of Max and Whiskers which is just perfect for pet layouts and these cards.  Here are some other projects I have worked on in the last month:

I have a lot of acrylic albums sitting around just waiting to be used for something creative.  This is an album I made of my home.  I stamped with Staz On Ink and just had fun with it:

Well that's it for today.  Now to go for a walk as I am about to take on a new journey of getting healthier as I have some health issues I have to address.

Shania Twain - From This Moment On

This was Shannon & Rob's song for their special wedding dance. It was absolutely beautiful to see two people so much in love. I don't think there was a dry eye in the entire room. I just had to share it. The words are so nice:

Cooking Up A Storm

The weather has been anything but spring lately so I thought it would be a good time to take advantage of making some dishes ahead to freeze for later.  Yesterday, I made Hamburger Soup, Shepherds Pie, and a big pan of Burritos.  I also make some Blueberry Pancakes that can be frozen and heated in the toaster later.  Today I am making a Banana Bread and Chocolate Chip Cookies.

I love to cook and bake, but not in the summertime.  The heat really doesn't agree with me so I really don't mind this weather for a short while.

Rick will be home on Wednesday and it's nice to spend quality time with him when Clayton is in school.  He likes to go for drives in his car and it's nice to come home and not cook.  That's our motto, work hard, then play hard.  It's how I roll.

Wedding Bells

What a month this May has been!  First there was the bridal shower and then the wedding last week.  It was so great!  My family was all together and Shannon and Rob tied the knot on Saturday, May 22, 2010 in Leduc.  All the preparations were worth it as Shannon and Rob had a wonderful ceremony, reception and dance.  There were about 100 guests and it was so nice to catch up with everyone.  Shannon looked absolutely stunning in her wedding dress as well as Rob and the bridesmaids and groomsmen.  It has been a week of total reflection of what family is all about.  I thank God every day for giving me such a wonderful life and family.  I feel so blessed...

  

Brandon & Lori's New Home

There has been a lot of proud mommy moments lately and this is one of them.  Brandon and Lori sold their condo and moved into their first single family home last December.

Their house is spacious and will be the perfect size home if they want to have a family.  I love the TV room upstairs.
