Pictures of My Layouts (Last post for today I swear)

So I made my layouts into images. I know a lot of my friends are expecting babies to there's a couple you might really like. I also made some for holidays. Take a look! If you like one I would be happy to send you the code or if you have an idea for one let me know I would love to try it. I've just learned how to do this and now I'm teaching it as part of my scrapbooking class so the more practice I get the better!

Reunion!

Reunion 1:
After not seeing her for probably 2 years Ryan and I finally visited with Amanda when we were in Price. We both had our daughters around the same time and though we've sent birthday, Christmas and Baby Shower gifts back and forth in the mail for them our daughters have never met eachother. :) It was great to see them playing together. Madison had a lot of fun toys that Tally had never played with before. Tally became some what of a bully though. I'm afraid my child hasn't learned the art of sharing. :) I regret not getting any pictures of them together.

Reunion 2:
After 2 years in the Phillipines I finally got back in touch with Nate. He's back at CEU going to college and over the MLK holiday he spent his 3 day weekend with us in Roosevelt. We watch favorite movies, Fun with Dick and Jane and the Producers ate popcorn played the Wii etc. It was great to see him again. Again...no pictures. Man I'm a slacker.

Finally the last of Christmas 2008

Tally was very spoiled this year for Christmas! All of her grandparents were very generous. (As was Santa) She loves her new toys and her princess couch. She falls asleep on it all the time now watching her new movies. She got a lot of winter clothes which was so nice because she needed them. Anyways finally almost exactly a month later MERRY CHRISTMAS to all and no more Christmas posts for a year!

Busy Week and a New Furnace

Monday- Sick baby
Tuesday- Sick baby
Wednesday- Night Lab 3-7
Thursday- work 8-3 Accounting
Friday- work 1-3 Teach class 5-8 Accounting
Saturday- Accounting

So to you my schedule may not look to awful but I'm not used to getting up and GOING to work. I'm usually already there. I don't necessarily have to get ready for work before the sun rises and my schedule revovles around Tally. This week however has been different. On Thursday and Friday I subbed for my parents which I have to say I really didn't mind too much. I've also been working on Accounting/Bookkeeping for a local guy who asks for our help. This week has just been crazy! To add to all the fun Wednesday night our furnace died. So we had a company here a lot of Wednesday night and then all of Thursday day. Not to mention all the money it takes to replace a furnace is now gone! Ryan says we've expirienced our problem for the year. :) I'm glad it happened in January because from here and out should be great!!

I got Tagged.......

So Amanda tagged and in this tag you go to your fourth album and then choose the fourth picture from that album so here you go. Prom 2005! haha Now I have to tag 4 people.....
Kassie, Deidra, Cindy and Kelsie. There that sounds good.

New Layout!

So once again my old layout has been laid to rest and I have replaced it with another. But this one is special......I designed it myself! I've been teaching a digital scrapbooking class and wondered if I could change a scrapbooking layout into a blog template and it worked! I would be more than willing to do a template for anyone who is interested. I also have template like "it's a boy/girl" and some for holidays that I will have to post later. Anyway send me a comment and I will make your template or send you think link and instructions!!

Favorites of 2008

So here are my favorite pictures of 2008. Enjoy!

We had a fabulous 2008 and we hope that all of you did too! Happy New Year everyone!

Where's your nose?

So my mom was given this little elf for Christmas from a family friend and Tally saw it and constantly has to tell him where his nose is! So funny! Sometimes she gets too close and hugs him and he falls over and she cries. She's such a funny girl.

More Favorites from San Deigo!

Here are more fabulous pictures from San Diego that I couldn't fit in my other posts.

So far behind.......

So part of my parent's surprise trip to San Deigo was a day at Sea World! Noone but my mother has ever been and Ryan has only been one other time quite a few years ago so it was a surprise everyone was looking forward too. We touched Manta Rays, watch the Shamu show, watched other people feed the dolphins, ate some lunch and then went to a dolphin show. I'm sure that the Dolphin show was just as great as the killer whale show but we went at the wrong time. The sun was at the perfect angle to reflect off the water and right into our eyes. After that Tally needed to be able to get up and walk around so my parents went to the Wild Arctic and Ryan, Tally and I went to the "Bay of Play" a small Lagoon for kids that is sponsered by Sesame Street. We rode some rides, saw the characters and ran around. After meeting back with my family. (No easy task, maybe someday I'll blog that story) We hurried over to the Sea Lion/Otter/Seal show. It was kind of cold after that so we decided to walk the 15 min to our hotel instead of waiting over 2 hours for the next one to get there. It was so much fun!
