Deven sleeping

Here is my nephew Deven sleeping on his moms lap. This was taken Tuesday at the Figure 8 Derby. Isn't it crazy how kids can sleep through all that loudness?

Sassy Girl

This is my neice Destany. We got rained on the night we were going to do the family fire works. The kids still got to do their sparklers though. Although it wasn't very safe, they did them under the tents. Even though it stormed that night, it was still a good time w/ great food (isn't that what family is about?)

Kit is Maria LaFrance Fruit Smoothie.

Trying again

Here is DJ & Tyler eating "brown cereal." They still call it that. It is actually Cocoa Wheats. These pics were taken in 2001. Dj likes hers liquidy and Tyler likes lumps. (I like lumps too).

Pictures not working

I did a whole lotta scrapping today and now I cant upload the pics. I have been trying for days. So hopefully I will get them up soon. Sorry about that.

Cutie Pie

This is DJ when she was about 5 months old. She is such a cutie pie.
Kit is Lianne Carper, My Sweet Pea.

Cake Walk

Here is a picture of DJ. She is choosing out a cake. She always pics the store bought ones, which is good. At least we know where they come from. I remember when I was younger, all the moms would make these totally elaborate cakes. There were always so many good ones to choose from. Now all the cakes are from Meijer and Walmart. They still taste good though.

Kit is Andrea Nelson (at divine digital), sweeter things. Font is Kartika.

Tyler, hard workin'

Being up north means it doesn't matter if your clothes match. All ya gotta do is get dressed, get dirty and have fun. Greg and Tyler were gathering wood for a bon fire. Tyler loves to help.

My newest neice

This is a pic of Britany Madison. She belongs to Jeff and Lori. She is about 1 month old here. She has a ton of hair and it sticks up all the time. Doesn't she look so perfect?

Paper and heart is Aja Abney, Sunlit nursary. Bow is unkown, stitch is Christine Nash, word art is 1hourscrap.

Summer Vacation, Sleep through it!

This is Tyler sleeping on the couch. He usually wakes up because Abby wants to go outside in the morning. Well then he falls back asleep on the couch. I took some pics. He isn't going to like the fact that I have a ton of pics of him in his undies. Well I say he should just get dressed then right?

Kit is Shelle Pukas, Cherished Moments.

Tyler in Head Start

This is Tyler's pic from Head Start. He was 4 years old. He was such a cutie pie. I scrap lifted this from Summer Simmons in Scrapbook Answers August/September edition. I used Manly Linen papers & ribbons from Jessica D, doodle is from Lauren Grier, notebook paper is from Kimberly Giarrusso.

Russian Pre-Game

Kit is Wendy Whitney, Elegant Bliss QP.

Russian Make Over

When I was in HS, we had a russian exchange student. A whole volleyball team came over to play against some local high schools, mine being one of them. So my family got to have an exchange student stay with us. She isn't in this layout, but her name was Anna. She was like 6'2", very quiet. I could tell that she missed home. She had fun when we did team type things, but I think maybe I was a little too wild for her. I was about 1000 times more peppy then I am now. So I am guessing that I would even be annoyed with the 17 year old me.

Christmas 1980

Well here is one of me back in the 80's. I got ice skates. When I look at the pictures from then I think about how much technology has changed. Even the pics that I took when DJ was a baby. Now, digital is so easy and so much better, for me at least.

This is a QuickPage from LieFhung.

Were going bowling!

We usually do something as a family on New Years Eve. The kids like that now. I am sure it will change, but for now... we go bowling. Tyler was so excited! This is in 2000, going into 2001. Tyler was just shy of 4 years old.

Dress Up!

Here is a picture of DJ evidently helping with laundry. She would wear this purple dress all day, everyday. She loved to play dress up. This is actually a dress she found up north. It was one that I had worn when I was a child. I think I might even have a picture of me in it.

Kit is Kim Higueria, Tropical Lavander. Also doodles from Lauren Grier and Misty Cato.

Baby Shower

Here is a picture of me from 1994. My friend claudia threw me a shower at her house. It was so fun. I had nothing for DJ. I got a ton of stuff. In this picture, I remember thinking... this diaper is going to fit the baby? It is so small. I couldn't believe they were that small. I guess that sorta tells how much experiance I had w/ babies... none!

Silly Boy

I found this silly picture of my brother, Rob. I guess he probably did not want my mom to take it. That is why he would make the funny face.

Kit is bella gypsy designs, summer fun.

1988 picture of me.

Here is my Jr. year school pic. Wow, love them bangs. I loved the 80's. They were so fun. No worries, be happy, and all that.

I used Khristy Schmidt's Feeling Good kit.

Fire Flies

Hello again. Finally got another page done. I have been so busy at work that I haven't had time to scrap.
This is DJ catching fire flies at grandmas house.

DJ & I, 1995

Wow, looking back huh? 11 years ago. Of course, DJ is young, and I look so much younger. Oh well at least I earned everything I have (wrinkles, double chin, stretch marks). J/K. I got this picture taken of us for Christmas. I think DJ actually had three other Christmas pictures taken because people kept giving me such cute dresses for her. It was great because I would just get the Wal'mart 3.99 package and got to play dress up with DJ. This one is special to me though. We had a rough time that year. I was 22, didn't know anything about anything and just trying to learn to be a mom and a woman. Even without a whole heck of anything we still look pretty happy, and we were.

Kit is Susan Long's Cookie. (it goes with my dress).
