I am a hip mom--are you?

I just got my new phone which is a Verizon enV!!!!! Taylor's friends text me quite a bit which is fun. I was pretty darn quick on my old phone but still learning this one!!! It opens so that it is a keyboard but it is not as easy as typing here!!!! LOL I am enjoying it since I can connect to AIM, Yahoo and MSN using my phone so that if all the computers are tied up I have a way to still chat! Go me! I finally have an mp3 player which is on my phone. I did NOT have one. Lame I know! Funny over the past few days I have been using the texting keyboard thinking it would be easier than my old way (which I was pretty speedy at) but it is not like typing here! You find out that your fingers are to big! LOL I guess with practice I will get better!

I am excited to say that I have some pictures for you all to see. I have some pictures of cards I made and some general pictures. Valentine's day was the same as usual for me--he said Happy Valentine's day so that was nice. Taylor's day was going to be spectacular! I had gone to Build a Bear to buy a cute heart dog (for Taylor) and a stuffed monkey (for Jack) in the middle of January since I had coupons! Jack also wanted the cute little t-shirt that said Be Mine for the doggy. Before valentines day he had got her her favorite chocolates and 2 chocolate suckers. The day before v day I picked him up to get the balloons and he also picked up another thing of her favorite candy and some hearts to decorate her locker with. We then headed up to school for the locker sneak! We laughed trying to fit all this stuff nicely in her locker. It would keep tipping over or we would change it and make it fall! Talk about 2 goof balls! I told him lets decorate the outside with the hearts and the inside door so I did the front and he did the inside and in her books so it would fall out all day. We were so proud of ourselves standing there like peacocks at what we had done. After closing the door, we realized that we had forgot the big mylar balloon! So we had to reopen the locker and stuff it in!!!!! What a bunch of fools we were! Finally it was done! I knew Taylor was going to be so stinking happy and surprised!!! Valentine's day came around, she went to her locker, was so happy but did not have anywhere to put her book bag and coat!!!!!! Opps such a delimma! We had never thought of that! He also had brought her 3 roses for their anniversary which was the 11th! He is so thoughtful! What a great kid he is!









Things have been the same so not to much to update there! Hope you all like my stuff I did!

This is a card I made for Jack. The heart was done with the Cricut, the stamp is Stampin Up, gold and silver glitter is Stickles and ribbon is Offray. I found it so hard to make a guy card plus it was for my daughter's boyfriend! He said he loved it and was going to save it. I had made him an altered frame with Taylor's picture but I forgot to take a picture of it! Opps!

This is a card that I made for Jack's mom since her birthday is Valentine's Day. The paper is Stampin up & KI, the girl stamp is Stampabella, the cirlce stamp is SU, as well as the watercolor pencils, flower-?? and ribbon Offray ( I think).
Well thanks for stopping by! It is nice seeing you again! I hope to have more updates soon!

Can't believe it has been a week since last post!

Time sure does fly! Over the weekend we attended my friend's husbands memorial service. It was unusual since it was just a service no wake or burial. It was just about celebrating Jim's life! You think that I would have had the sense to take kleenex! It was such a great tribute to him plus informative about his whole life! He was a great guy! Thanks to those of you that are helping by sending cards!

So on to more fun stuff! Okay so maybe not fun but not sad! I was tickled pink with my parents gifts for my birthday! I got a real pretty unicorn & the new scor it tool, chipboard & MM paint! I got to take mom to Archivers to shop for myself but it was still great! I can't wait to have a chance to use my new tool! It is such a neat and easy way to do cards! Best part is it makes the perfect gatefold card! No more guessing!

Dad and I have been out doing more business stuff! We got another order yesterday with a deposit! It is going so well it is scary! We have 2 shows coming up that hopefully will generate more business. So far we have had 4 orders plus a few others to come in. Yippee!!!!!

Thanks for stopping by! I am not going to talk forever as to bore you! LOL See you soon
