I Love Fancy Pants Designs! Did I Say Love?

I have all different papers and goodies from scrapbooking manufacturers, but I tend to always come back to Fancy Pants Designs paper collections as they have a wide assortment of girly, whimsical and masculine collections.  Their collections seem to fit with a lot of the layouts I am doing these days.  This layout is made with their "Like Father Like Son" collection and I have used just about every morsel of these papers on different layouts and cards.

86 Years

My mother in law and father in law just celebrated their 86th birthdays and so I had them for dinner and cake.  I often wonder what it must be like to have lived 86 years and how the world has changed in that time.  The wisdom that comes with all those years of experience.

They really are sweet, beautiful people and I can learn so much from them.  Here are some photos:

Strawberry Cream Cheese Cake

Dad starts singing happy birthday LOL.

Ohhhhh What A Feeling.....Dancing On The Ceiling...

This morning I woke up at 4 a.m. and couldn't get back to sleep so I decided to go on my computer.  There was a nice email waiting for me.  I applied to be on a new design team for a scrapbooking iphone app which is called Sketches2Scrapbook





It is a dream come true for me as I have thought of applying for a design team in the last few months but thought I would wait a few more years as voices in my head kept telling me I'm not good enough., maybe in a year or two.

I have been published 4 different times in an online magazine called Scrapbooking.com Magazine but never been on a design team.

Today I am feeling very honored and very blessed right now and looking so forward to working with Anam Stubbington and her awesome team.  Thanks so much Anam, I am dancing on the ceiling!

Deep Tissue Massage



 I have a great massage therapist that works out of her home.  She is awesome!  I went to her two years            ago  when I injured my shoulder and I have just started going back to her as she helps my lower back so much.  A month ago, I went to her and had a hot stone massage, which was very relaxing, but I wanted to have a deep tissue massage today.  Wow am I sore, but I know it will help.  I am not a big fan or believer in chiropractors because I believe you should also work the muscle attached to the bone or joint.  What do you think?  Do you believe in chiropractors?

Moose Does Yoga

There is a nice scrapbook retreat located about 30 minutes west of where I live and they hold several  different events.  This is a video they posted today that was on my Facebook.  I love animals and I thought this was so cute!
