Noah

Ok, so i'm not as good as my friends, Penne and Nikki, but i tried my luck at some pictures of Noah. i only got about 5 minutes with him. he was hungry and really didn't like his clothes off, lol. so these are the only two that i could really salvage. he has the baby rash some babies get, and it is really bad. he goes to the doctor tomorrow, maybe she will have something we can try. but here he is.

Finally!

Ok, so finally here are some pictures of the what is in the kit club. I am really excited about it! With the slow shipping and the early arrival of Noah, I had to move the October meeting to Nov. 1st. that was what i really did NOT want to do and i apologize profusely. But that just means we meet closer together. November's kit club meeting will be saturday, november 15th. and I promise you will love the november kit. I am finalizing up the purchases for the nov kit and let me tell you, i really think you will like it. it is gonna be jammed packed with goodness. but i don't want to get to far ahead of myself. so here is the kit. it's kinda hard to see what is all in the kit, but it gives you a idea.


contents are: 3 black bazzill, 1 making memory die cut halloween paper, 1 making memory double sided halloween paper, 3 pink paislee patterned paper, 1 pink paislee round scalloped paper, 1 sheet pink paislee alphabet stickers, bazzill only the edges (2 pictured, but you will recieve more), 2 heidi swapp heart mirrows, 1 yard bazzill black pom poms, making memories flowers and buttons.




and here is the box i made with the making memory paper. it is so much cuter in real life!



and here's Noah. He doesn't come with the kit, lol. But i couldn't resist showing him off just one more time. lol. um, i'm sure it won't be the last time either.



ok, so i rode with Rona to the St Gen scrapbook store, O'Dears, and we had so much fun. Debbie's store is really nice and it is jammed packed with goodies. i loved just looking thru the stuff. she has the cutest samples too. and I found some of the coolest stuff!!!! She has some of the coredinations papers and i can't wait to play with them. ever since i seen what julie was doing with them at the crop a couple weeks ago, i've been wanting to play with them!!! and here is the coolest thing, She has the big die cut machine, i can't remember its name, but OMG, she has the coolest dies for it too. AND you can use it for free as long as you buy your paper there. that is a awesome deal. and the stuff you can cut out! she has mini book dies, border dies, alphabet dies, tag dies, shape dies, OMG, i could spend the whole day there cutting stuff out. and she has sheets of chipboard and acrylic that you can cut stuff out of. you could probally do a whole acrylic book for a couple bucks. I cut out some cool looking snowflakes with the acrylic sheets that i can't wait to alter with some glitter. ohhlalala! i can not wait to go back.

ok, so i have to tell ya what i have planned for the november kit. it is too cool to keep a secret! and i hate secrets, lol. i don't know the specific amounts but i do know the products i want to use. here's my idea's.

a mini christmas book by teresa collins. it is really cool, it comes already together and is really cute. we'll alter that baby up!

little yellow bicycle christmas papers. These papers are to die for. OMG. i can't wait to order them and run my fingers thru them. there will be several patterned papers in it and some die cut papers. some journaling sheets and some transparent sheets too. i'm telling ya, this line is the bomb!

for upcoming months i have my eye on the new imaginese winter line, i think it is called snowy jo. it is very pretty too.

i'm telling ya, there is some really cool stuff out there and it is hard to choose!

well, i'd better get busy, we're having company for supper. of course Noah and his parents, oh wait, that's amanda and neil, my mom and dad and our friend tim and his family. i have so much other stuff to do, but oh well. i love having family together too. so the work can wait. and i have all the october kits together, that is what matters the most! lol

have a great sunday!

Check Him Out!

Noah's on the internet!

Ok, so you are going to get tired of me talking about him, sorry.

Introducing Noah Allen

He is the cutest baby!!! no really he is! lol and he is soooo good. he rarely cries. and just looks around. he is really smart. lol when he looks at you, you think he actually knows who you are and what you are saying to him.

In these pictures he is just hours old.

It's A Boy!

of course you already knew that! but he is here!!! Noah Allen was born at 559pm on 10/16/08 weighing 6lbs 10oz and 20 1/2 inches long. He is the cutest thing! it was scary for a bit, but he is here! she seen her ob earlier in the day and they did a stress test and a ultrasound because he hadn't been moving hardly at all. all babies do that, but he just wasn't doing it near enough. they delivered him by
c-section and the cord was wrapped around his neck SIX times. 6 times. they say he is a miracle baby. Amanda and Noah are doing great. and of course he is the cutest thing!!! pictures to come!!!!

Kit Club

So I have decided to continue the scrapbook club Rona started over a year. She had alot of fun and so did alot of you. I hope to continue that fun! I hope you will give it a try, as i have lots of fun in store!
I sent this out over the yahoo group and in case you didn't get it, here it is again:
New Scrapbook Club Kit


Since Rona is no longer doing the Scrapbook Club, I have decide to
contine with one. I am excited about this and I hope you are too.
Anyone can join!

Here's the Details!

*The cost will still be $15.00 a month. The first month I am asking
that you pay for that month and a deposit of $15.00, so a total of
$30.00. ($15.00 for October and $15.00 deposit). Then $15.00 for every
month there after. So if you sign up for October, you will pay me
$30.00 and then in November you will pay me $15.00, and so on. When
you decide to cancel, I would like a months notice. So if you decide
to cancel in March, you would still get your april kit at no cost, and
that will be your deposit back. Since i have to order in advance,
this is the way i must do it. If at any time you would like to pay in
advance, that is ok too!

*We will continue to meet at the Riverside Library each month. For
now we will continue to meet the second saturday of the month. I may
change that on special occasions to accomadate holidays or vacations.
Since my husband only gets every other weekend off, i try and do
stuff with him, but not always!

*My plans for product you will recieve for the club are this: I
want to be able to give you enough paper to make at least 2 - 2 page
layouts. For the embellishments, I plan on dividing packages up
between kits. Which means you may not have the exact flower, brad,
chipboard embellie your neighbor has, but it will be from the same
package and equal amount. This is one of the things i think a kit
club is good for. Sometimes when you buy package's of embellishments,
there is no way you can use them all and you end up with 1/2 packages
of embellishments taking up room in your scrap area. And you will get
more for your money this way!! I also plan on having some projects
different months. Of course I like all the lastest and greatest stuff
and that is what i plan on putting in the kits. On occasion, some of
the manufactures have really good sales on older products, and I will
purchase some of their product and use that product in the kits. This
will only be a benefit to you, as you will get more goodies than usual!!!

*As time will allow me (hey, i'm gonna be grandma x2! and may be to
busy sometimes, lol) i plan on having extra's that you can buy.
wether it be add on's to your kit, or another whole kit, who knows,
but i have some idea's i have to get out of my head and onto some
paper, lol. I will try and surprise you month to month.

*I have asked several people (and still have a few to ask! lol) if
they would like to design pages or projects and are waiting for their
reply. You should have several different idea's each month to choose
from.

****So are you ready to sign up? Good. Here is what you need to do.
Let me know by emailing me at cyndesharok@hotmail.com (please put Kit
Club in subject line) or calling me at 573-382-1444. You can either
pay me by paypal or personal check. To get in on the October Kit, i
would like to know that you are interested by tuesday, September
30th. But if you decide after that date, please call me as i may have
a few kits that are still available.

I am really excited about this opportunity and hope to see many of you
at the crops. I know it has been a couple months since i cropped and
i am looking forward to getting back in the swing of things!

Just a Quick Note

A Page in Time in Dexter is having their Crop for a Cure again this year on Oct 4th. It's 25 bucks and it is well worth it! last year we got lunch, supper, drinks all day, snacks, a tshirt and drawings! Last year me and Penne met up with Mary and Angelia there and had the best time!!!! Some of us are planning on going again this year. I think it would be cool if alot of us went! i know she usually has a large crowd and i think it said on her website that she is only taking 125 this year. let me tell ya, there was at least that many last year. Call the Dexter store at 573-614-4777 to reserve your spot! let me know if you are going and want us to get some tables together!

Have a great day!

Craziness!

LOL! that has been how i feel lately! I am doing much better since my last post and better than i have been in the last couple weeks. Markie is doing good, she is going to school and not complaining much! yeah. it's about time after 12 years. lol she had her ultrasound on monday and she is 13 weeks with a due date of march 1. hopefully dr morton will keep it at that date. the earlier the better. she is feeling ok, wants to eat all the time. and she is eating better. had to make her soup the other day. in the middle of summer! lol my mother in law was nice enought to make her chicken and dumplin's too. yummy! amanda is doing good. she is at 32 weeks. we'll have a baby boy before we know it!!!!

so i am cleaning out amanda's room and trying to get all my scrap stuff together so i can go thru it and get ready for a garage sale. i think we're going to have one at my mom's house in jackson. i just need to ask her! lol. she usually don't care.

A long time friend passed away this week. He was a friend to many and i'm not sure he knew a stranger. Harold, or Big H as we knew him was one of the nicest guys. he'll be missed by many. rock on Harold, rock on.

well, hello there.

sorry i havent' been around. i don't have internet at home right now, gonna work on that this week. works is filtered. so i'm very limited. lol

but i have other things to keep my mind busy. Amanda is getting bigger and bigger every day. she is doing good.

not sure how to put this, so here goes. (good thing you can't see me, cause i'm gonna cry) My daughter Markie is pregnant. she is only 17 and a senior in hs. we had hoped to kinda keep it quite for a few more months just so she could at least have a few 'normal' months of her senior year. but thanks to some very chatty 'do gooders'. oh well. it has been a roller coaster of a few weeks. thanks to my friends that have listened to me, let me cry, helped me, drank with me, called places for me, ect, ect. lol. it is all so confusing, but we are doing our best. Markie has become a very good liar, adn that is something i am having a VERY HARD time with. i would rather be punched in the face than to be lied to. adn she continues to do it even though i have proof. lets just say it will be a very long 6 months. i have told her that i will help her and make her senior year as normal as possible as long as she quits lying and she tries to help herself. we'll see. we've (well i) have been busy trying to figure out insurance adn stuff. she doesn't quailfy for medicaid, but she is under both mine and marks insurance, which is great. lets just say she doesn't have a clue.

we won't talk about the boyfriend. this was my one of my worst fears.

scrapbooking has taken a back seat. i was wanting to start a scrapbook kit club, not sure now. not even sure about scrapbooking.

Two Days in a Row!!!

wow! ok so all the sneak peaks has me all hyper. geez. it's only paper and stuff. yeah right. lol so if you want to feel the same way, just take a look at the new fancy pants designs website. here's the link. http://www.fancypantsdesigns.com/store/index.php?main_page=featured_products&disp_order=1&page=1

8 pages of awesome goodness. i want it all. and my favorite? don't laugh, but it's the ball ribbon. it is the coolest! i want it in all colors imaginable. i do. but i don't always get what i want, lol. i can't wait to find out when this stuff is shipping. and we are planning a fall retreat, and i can't wait.

i haven't seen some of you in a while. hope everyone is doing good.

opps, i'll be back.

Hello

where has the time went? we went camping the first week in July and since then the time has flown by. i worked everyday last week adn will this week. no weekday off. yuck. i'm a 72 hour person, so that means i get one day off every two weeks, but not this pay period. i was suppose to be off this friday to go to CHA, but that is not gonna happen. i just can't swing it, that wedding. lol since this store is a 'no loans' kinda store, i have some limitations. lol. so i have decided to just order what looks like the coolest new stuff that i can see on the internet. let me just say, there are some pretty awesome sneak peaks out there. i have made a list and have been checking it twice. the list that follows is my most favorites so far!

Pink Paislee-- i just love this company. i want it all. so i have selected a few i think i must really get, but i want to know what you like too. so go here:

Crete Paper--haven't seen it yet. i'm sure i'll have to have it all

My Little Yellow Bicycle--There new lines are totally awesome. it is almost my fav!

STudio 8--awesome new papers and teh dinosar line is my favorite! (ok, 2m onths ago i would not of given it a second look, but ya know, a grandSON changes all that! and it's soooo funny, i was at a garage sale and i bought the cutest onsie with dinosars on them. lol. oh, it's a WHOLE new world!)

Had a Great Time!

Well where do i begin? lol Yesterday i had a great time. just a laid back day scrappin' with some of the coolest people! there were only 9 or 10 of us, but it was sooooo much fun!

The Red Barn (not to be confused with the resturant in fruitland) on hwy 61 is almost perfect for some crazy croppers for us! let me tell you about it! There is only one thing wrong with it, but i think it is something we can over come with a little thought. it is perfect in size for a all day crop. Heck, we've decided we can do a weekend cause there is a big room upstairs with a bed!! i'm not sure the landgrafts rent it out all weekend, but i'm gonna find out! there is one big room down stairs, another little room off the back and a full kitchen! yep, stove refrigerator, and microwave. and two bathrooms!!! that is important! so now for the one thing that wasn't that great. the lighting. and that is VERY important. but there was very little. very little. once i got there i realized this and called nikki and she brought her table lamp that she uses in her own scraproom. and it worked great! so for the next crop we're gonna see what we can do. now we know the problem, we'll find a solution!!!!

so we've got our thinking caps on and we're ready to get scrapping again! i'll post what i got done yesterday a little later. i think it's still in the car! yep, i was very tired when i got home, to tired to bring my stuff in! but i had soooooo much fun!

Now it's time to get some work done around here and get ready and go to a family reunion.

have a great day!

Sometimes I Just Don't Understand

what i was thinking. ok so i go to this site my 'womans world' tells me to go to for coupons. i sign up. and say it's ok to send my email addy to their email list. WHAT? WHY THE H*(( DID I DO THAT? geez. i don't even want to image how many additional emails i get a day. i can't tell you what all i've won. i'm not really sure either, since i DON'T OPEN THE EMAILS. ugghh i must find this site and remove my addy. sometimes i just wish i could back in time for just a instant, hit myself in the head, and go on. so if by chance you have emailed this week and i have not gotten back to you, please email me again. and make sure you put something in the subject line i will recongize.
rant over.

I will post a picture of my car soon. penne, it is a four door. can't go to wild ya know! and debbi by the time more grandbabies come, i should have outgrown this phase in my life and have a bigger car to haul all the babies around! but right now, this is toooooo much fun!!! and markie BEGS me to let her drive it. lol almost daily!

Hello

lol. i hate doing a title when i really have nothing to put there. i think i've said that before. been a little busy or busy doing little. one of those. been feeling kinda blah, think there is something going around work. just a real tired feeling and puky kinda feeling. i worked everyday last week adn i have to do it again this week. yuck. but then i'm off again for a FIVE day holiday weekend! yeah! it finally fell right with mark's crazy shift work where we'll get to spend the fourth of july camping. yeah. and it's our first camping trip this year! dang, that is not right. we've usually been 5 or 6 times by now. the wedding got alittle (ok a lot) in the way and a little thing as almost $4.00 agallon gas gets in the way too. lol

speaking of outragous gas prices, i finally bit the bullet and traded in my beloved expedition. i loved that thing. but it was just not practical anymore. no one rides with me adn it got like 15 miles (on a good day coasting down hill) a gallon, so it's gone. and in it's place is a nice new (or new to me) 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix. it has a sunroof, leather, cd player, heated seats, climate control for both seats in front, remote start. and i love it.

I'm getting exited about the crop on saturday. I can't wait to see my friends! and we're gonna have kits if you have the need to buy some. Check out Penne's blog (click on her name on the right) she has a cute kits for cards. (edited from cars to cards, thanks penne) very cool. Rona is gonna have some kits too. and i hope to have a few! i'm thinking i'm getting back in the swing of things. i'm feeling the itch to scrap!!!! yeah! well it's time to go home. have a nice evening. i have to go help unload pavestone we bought at their auction this weekend. yeah. lol
