Bike Show

Guess I'm posting backwards... but had a good weekend.
Friday night went to a Motorcycle show with my brother and dad. I finally got a new jacket for riding!! All the new bikes were just gorgeous, there were even a few custom ones that had pink and purple flames! This picture is from last fall, I'll try to get a picture in my new jacket soon and post it.
I even found another girl in our neighborhood who rides!! She has a beautiful Harley. It's hard to find other girls that ride!

Rainy Day!

Haven't written in a while... guess life has gotten in the way :)

Today was just cloudy and cold this morning, but it's been raining since about 4:00. Now it pouring and storming. Thankfully it's not bothering our 3 year old much, seem like she settled down pretty quickly.

Got this from a friend via 2Peas blog challenge...

1. The biggest enemy to creativity is procrastination.

If only I would get all my ideas into action, so many more projects and creativity would be accomplished!

2. The only thing I know for sure about the creative process is it is always changing!

This is so apparent in my scrapbook pages and other projects. Looking back on pages created years ago, and even months ago....there are changes in styles, supplies and techniques!

I hope to add more pictures to previous posts if I ever get dh off our regular computer. He has is set-up so I'm on the laptop while he does stuff and plays games on the pc. So when I get back on the pc I have a number of pics to download and add. Next I'll need to order pics for scrapping.. almost out!

I hate my PVR!!!

It has decided to die on us and dh was trying to fix it in the middle of Lost last night and proceeded to lose most of the episode!! :( He says we can dowload episodes from abc. com ??? I sure hope so otherwise I'm not going to be a happy wife.
We're getting a new one Saturday, but what do I do with the 30+ hours of shows that are on the old one?????? DD is going to have fit when she can't watch her favorite Max & Ruby and Dora episodes! hopefully we can get the important shows to vhs before the new one comes?!

ok, pvr vent over now.

Great Park Weather!!

We enjoyed some great weather this week!! Got to meet up with a scrapping friend and her dd at the park. The girls had fun running around and playing on the slides. Victoria and I then went over to the pond to see the ducks.... unfortunatly the geese have invaded, but it's all the same to a 3 year old, lol.

This happens to be the same park that dh and I visited last week on my due date of my miscarriage. Dh took the day off and we picked up some pink and blue balloons and released them in the park - in the rain. Not sure what else to say, but it was such a special afternoon for us.
This post is for Jan :)

I haven't kept up with this blogging like I wanted to but here it goes again...
Had a great time at a crop with the Peaches on Saturday!! Only got about 6 pages done, but had TONS of fun!

This week has been full of the BookFair! Dh hosts it for a fundraiser for his Basketball team so dd and I have been helping out every day for a while.

I've been working out consistently for a while now and have lost a few pounds!! My jeans are looser too, so I think some inches are gone!! :)

Ok, next post will be more organized and one topic ( i hope)
:)

Rollercoaster
I have some time before I have to pick up dd from school. Too tired last night to add much.
I had a great weekend scrapping with friends, that's a picture of our cropping crew of 'Meatballs' :)

I also got to talk to and catch up with a great friend from high school! We haven't talked in months and it's such a small world! He is in New York and we found out that he has been ordering products from a company that a scrapping friend owns in GA... he's been ordering from them for over 5 years! So i got to tell him that I am sitting next to the owner of the company, he was amazed!

The Rollercoaster comes from the pictures I was scrapping. In the pictures I am almost 10 weeks pregnant. Then I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks. How do I scrap these when at the time we were all so happy and had no clue our lives were about to turn into a nightmare. My dd is even wearing a 'big sister' t-shirt in many of the photos. Those are harder to look at than the pictures of me being pregnant. I'm glad that I was surrounded by friends while scrappimg these pictures, most of them didn't know specifics, but I'm glad I wasn't alone, don't know if I would have been able to get through them. Unfortunatly I still have dd's 3rd birthday to scrap and that was about a week and a half before my miscarriage. My due date was Feb 22 and it didn't help matters that I was working on these pictures on Jan 22nd, I should be 8 months pregnant.

The gym kicked my butt this morning, but it felt good!

Ok, that's long enough for now!

Lazy Day...
Well this is my first blog! After a great weekend of scrapping with friends old and new, my daughter and I both have colds. So after school we just hung out at home and rested. I'm signed up for another crop Friday night and hope I'll be feelign better. I haven't seen one friend in a few months and would hate to have to cancel.
That's all for now.
