Happy New Year

Happy New Year!!!


I have never been so happy to see a year end in my life. I know 2009 will be very challenging for work, but hopefully less heartbreaking personally.


My dear sweet husband said 2008 started badly and just continued to get worse. I have to agree. It was a bittersweet Christmas. We all missed Billy Sr. so much.


I hope that 2009 is more prosperous and happy for all of us.


I have a lot of lofty goals for 2009, I started today by weighing myself and being somewhat surprised. The last time I weighed myself was at the Dr.'s office in May and it was quite shocking! I have never been that heavy before so I was so shocked. I will never tell so don't ask what the number was! The only happy thing is I got on the scale and I have lost 18 pounds. I don't feel like I look like I have but the scale doesn't lie, does it? LOL (I even checked the scale by putting my hand weights on there to make sure it was accurate! :) )


Scrapbooking! :)


Yippee I have been scrapping again. That makes me happy. I have gotten 2 layouts done and about to get numbers 3 and 4 done and be caught up for the year! (A layout a day) LOL

Lifetime Moments is having their annual Winter Scrapfest again so I will have lots of Scrapbook pages and altered items to do again. It will be fun. I hope I win a prize again like I did in the summer Scrapfest! :)



I guess the easiest way to jump back into the scrapbook game is to scrap the animals. My next page will be about my classroom! :)





I will end with this photo of my Father In Law. I love you Billy Joe Lee Sr. I miss you and wish you were here every day.

The  journaling is hard to read on the layout so here it is. I love you With all my heart What that means to me is I get to go to sleep with my best friend. When I laugh with you, it is not the same as with anyone else. When you look at me with such love, I sometimes feel I am not worthy of being loved so much. I know what it means to be truly loved. I know that I always have you with me, even when you are not by my side. I know that I am on your mind a...

I hope all of you had a wonderful New Year Celebration with family and friends. Bethanie was blessed to see her best friend that she had while we stationed in Biloxi together.  Hannah is now in Tennessee and came to meet us at my Dad's house in Georgia when we went to see him in the first week of our Christmas break. the first page shows Bethie and Hannah now, the right page shows them when they were  much younger in Biloxi.  Look Beth is bigger than Hannah! Hannah is 4 inches taller than her now! In these pages I used: Cosmo Cricket Girl Friday background paper Cosmo Cricket Gretel papers Basic Grey Bling Imagine Better Together on the right page. Hello Kitty Font and shadow fused with gypsy Lots of brown (chestnut roan) chalk ink (cat's eye) The left page I am submitting to MY Pink Stamper for Design Team call. :) The right page doesn't apply because there are too many colors. (I needed to use pink, green, brown and one other col...
