The Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian

I took my kids to see "The Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian" today. This was their 2nd full week out of school & we really haven't done anything fun yet. Oh yea, we did finally get the pool all cleaned & refilled, ready for use this week. But anyway, this movie is really good. It's not as fairytale-ish as the 1st one, but very adventurous. I highly recommend it for anyone with (or without) children. It's not scarey at all, so any age group would enjoy it. Of course we had our popcorn, soda & candy. That's the best part, ya know! Today we treated ourselves to a special treat of Dippin' Dots on the way out. YUMMY!!! A very good day spent with the kids!!! I took a pic of the kids with my phone today since I didn't have my camera with me. Not the best quality, but at least it's a memory.

Bret Got Her Braces Off!!

BRET--BEFORE JULY 2005
BRET--AFTER JUNE 2008

My daughter Bret got her braces off yesterday. After 3 loooooong years of those things, FINALLY they're gone!!! YIPEE!!!! She was supposed to get them off in January, but had to wear them a few months longer. She's happier than I am about it, though. No more monthly visits to the Orthodontist to get those things tightened & no more whining about her teeth hurting. It paid off though, and she has done such a great job of taking care of her teeth while she had them on. She brushed twice a day, sometimes more & flossed every single day. I'm very proud of her. Now she gets rewarded with Mom buying her some Crest Whitening Strips & such a beautiful smile.

The 1st pic is from the day she got her braces on in July 2005. The 2nd pic is from yesterday after she got them off. WOW, look how much she's changed!!! My baby girl just turned 14 in May. OMG, she's gonna be driving soon & even worse.....DATING!!!!! UGG!!

Feeding the geese @ the park

I was keeping my boss's baby yesterday & my kids wanted to take him to the park & feed the ducks. Well we didn't get ducks, but we got lots of geese. They were sooo cute.

New Layouts W/Overlays

I recently found some great overlays in my stash. I love these things because they are super-duper easy. You can't hardly find these things anymore though - bummer! I love anything that makes it easier for me because I am such a perfectionist. It takes me forever to put a lo together!!

My 1st post

So, I'm kinda new to this blog thing, but I'm excited to get started! Hopefully I'll be posting lots of things about my scrapbooking. I'll probably be posting every time I go to a new concert, especially if it's my Timmy! Besides scrapbooking, going to concerts (of any kind) is my fave thing to do. The last concert I attended was Sugarland & Little Big Town back in April right here in our little town of Jonesboro, AR. We have some really big names come through our little city. My youngest, Cody, went with me to that one. I like going w/friends, but I also like taking my kids to concerts. I love for them to get that experience. We had so much fun!! I'll also be posting things going on with my kids. Please feel free to leave comments.
Until next time.......here's a couple pics from the Sugarland/LBT concert.
