New Collabs

The Gingerbread Ladies have been busy making kits. Check out the latest collabs. There's Backyard BBQ and County Fair. Both kits have awesome theme related elements, but also have elements to make a non themed LO. I love kits like that!

Happy Father's Day to all the ladies?

Yeah, I know weird title, but are there men out there that scrapbook? If so, I'd like to get to know them. In honor of Father's Day I'm giving away a freebie. I wish my dad were still here with me, but he's always in my heart. Miss you Dad. Download here.

Scrapberry Designs

I love the new kit "Just Like Sean" by Scrapberry Designs. Tabby has outdone herself with this kit. I may be biased because I love the color orange! Check out the full kit at Gingerscraps.

I'm hosting a SPEED SCRAP on Saturday night!

Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome Awareness Day

Today, I'm blogging for a cause that is not very well known, but everyone should be aware of. It's called Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome (APS). APS is an autoimmune disorder in which the body recognizes certain normal components of blood and/or cell membranes as foreign substances and produces antibodies against them. A wonderful woman I know named Ginger is affected and it breaks my heart to hear when she is unable to be her normal self when she gets sick. Click on the image below to read more about it.



We need to start finding cures for illnesses rather than just treating them!!

I've been LACKING on updating my blog...

There are many reasons that keep me from updating my blog as often as I'd like. To name a few:
-We moved at the end of February and are still trying to get settled in. It's tough getting box after box out of storage. I have stuff I forgot I owned. I guess that's what happens when your belonging are in storage for almost a year!
-I work a full time job.
-I can't stand a dirty house or laundry waiting to be done.
-Enjoying the sunshine.
-Potty training Gabe. I must elaborate on this one. I am so impressed with how well Gabe has done potty training. We started on Friday April 2nd and as of 4:30pm on April 5th he has got the peeing part down like a champ. We're still working on the finer details such as pooping and pulling up his pants when he is done. Right now he hops off the potty the second he is done and practically runs out of his underwear. He is so excited that he doesn't stop to pull up his pants first!
Without any further ado -- I'm going to post away! I'll check my folders and make sure I got them all and post the others at a later date.
