I tell you this is ending a very long week. I told you about my friend DD well another friend Seva is now in ICU and it doesn’t look good. I am not sure she is going to make it. They said she was having complications from surgery she had on Wed. She is now on life support and things seems to be shutting down inside her body. Very scary stuff. My thoughts and prayer are with her and all of her family. Please everyone that reads this pray with us!  Read more... (200 words, estimated 48 secs reading time)

Me and Matt and a few friends went to RC Magraws for mine and DD’s birthday last night. We had a blast hanging out with friends. Ran in to some old friends from the bus barn it was great seeing them I miss them really bad that’s about the only thing I miss from there is the people. We had a really good time. It was kinda of  funny with not planning on them being there and they were all there. I even resolved a friendship too. I am glad we went it must have been fate for all of us to be in the same place. Here is a picture of me and my girlfriends that went with us. Gonna make some good scrapbook pages. LOL!

So this has been a very good and bad week all rolled up in one. The weekend of July 17th and 18th was great, we had 2 weddings and a baby shower lots of happiness going on there. Well then last week we found out Torrie is good to go for school YEA!! So we had to go to the WIC office, Doctor for shots for school   then off to the dentist, NO CAVITIES YEA!! Tues the 21st was Torrie’s B-day we had cake for the family that night. Then on Wed. we started planning for the weekend b-day party with all her friends. Well Thurs night there was a man killed on K-18 highway out by Scenic Drive on a motorcycle which happened to be my daughter’s good friends dad. So it was a very emotional end of the week and weekend. Last night was the viewing and today the funeral. SOOOO all week was happy, sad, happy, sad. I am hoping the rest of this week goes alot better and we have less to do and not as many emotional situations to deal with. The party went really good and she was very happy and got lots of clothes for her to start school. I have enclosed a picture. Hope you enjoy and will be here to see and talk to you more this week. Again I apologize. I am off to scrapbook this weekend YEA!! Again.

Adding embellishments can make the difference in your scrapbook page. The embellishment can be the main item on your page or it can bring attention to the picture on the page.

Embellishments can be stickers, die cuts, tags, ribbon, beads, or anything that accents the page. You may want to put a memento on the page that goes with the event featured on the page. Always look for these items in stores on sale. For example, A roll of ribbon can be used for other pages also so it would benefit you to buy the roll especially if it was on sale.  Read more...
