oh my...it's been awhile






oh my gosh....what have y'all been up to!? well, we have been cleaning cleaning cleaning around here....it is looking pretty nice....laundry is taken care of..imagine that...




not much has happened since I last visited with y'all....let's see...it has been a LONG time, but the time is just flying by...back to teaching full time and actually taking care of my housework...so that is a nice change :)




my new quest is WEIghT waTcHeRz.....I am only supposed to have 20 points...and pretty much for the first two weeks..we were in MAJOR starvation mode....but now, I am thinking that I might have it all figured out :) the hardest thing was NO dr. Peppers.......ahhh man....I also had to cut out starbucks...( sob sob sob)..so basically, I eat cottage cheese/peaches for lunch....then eat some kind of fruit...no snacks..and a nice dinner.......or maybe one of those smart ones...I have been limiting myself to just under 20 points...but on Valentine's Day..I TOTALLY blew it...hello cupcakes and cookies....I will have to say that I used up my flex points with a vengance! NOT GOOD! but...anyways...I think that it will work..I have done it before..and lost weight..so hopefully I can do it this time TOO! I am doing it with my team teacher, Sherry...she is a ROCK an keeps me on task :) love HER!




Valentine's Day was lovely....the kids were SO cute...I made their valentine's cards...they turned out pretty sweet....that was them at the top... :) I had fun making them as you can see :)

kevin got me a starbucks gift card...HELLO....don't you WANT me to lose weight?! I was like GREAT..I will have hot water :)..how many points is that?! It was too sweet of him though...the last thing for Valentine's day he got me was rose bushes about 8 years ago...so we are back in the saddle this year..haha


let's see...oh we had Dynamite Dad's Day at school a couple of weeks ago...it was Precious..the daddies LOVED it...I added some pics of it :) My kids gave their daddies bbq sauce...check out the CUTE labels..that was FUN! I added a CUTE picture of hunny and daddy...so sweet!
so basically that's it..>i will HOPEFULLY be adding some pictures of some new projeCts that I have underway..........BIG PLANS for my new CRAfT RoOm too....just say a Special Prayer that i get my way........ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
oh my gosh....I am TOTALLY lovING not having the store.......ahhhh...it is SOO nice..I miss everyone...buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut.....oh my gosh...those saturdays at home..ROCK! TOTALLY..I mean...I am LOVING a&e's morning lineup...2 hours of sell this house 2 hours of flip this house LOVE it! I spread out ALL of my done laundry and fold it on the den floor and sort and fold the laundry for the WHOLE morning... oh my GOSH...this is LOVE!
so girlz...thanks for checking in........I am still getting invitation orders so YEAH! keep em' coming!
gotta buzz........I am off to make me a DELECTABLE smart one........ cross your fingers that I make it..my target is to lose 20 pounds......oh my gosh...I hope that I can do it...kevin has promised NEW clothes........ahhhhhhhhh..how cool is tHat?!
tata chickas....xoxo.ash

i'm baaaaaaack....



oh good grief..i won't EVEN get into the week that i have had...just please know that my mind was 10million miles away from digi scrappin'....so much has happened....lots of sad stuff..I know that y'all don't know my family...but just please say a special prayer for my cousin Jason...he is going through a really rough time..so are his parents...they are all very special to me and are in need of some prayers...thanks!


on a MUCH lighter note..kaney's birthday ROCKED....I didn't get the invites (yes, the precious ones that y'all have already seen) mailed out..my mind was playing tricks on me..by not working...all of this craziness started on the eve of my birthday...and my week just was totally shot from there...........I procrastinated SO much (shock) that even i am amazed that I could TOTALLY pull of Kaney's birthday party...it was QUITE a success..kev cooked up some scrumptious DOVE and DUCK..yum..the cake was delicious and AWESOME and most of all Kane was the KING for the DAY! He had a BLAST...and I think that everyone else did too..even if i did have to call and invite people instead of sending out invites :)


Well, I have managed to do a few layouts....they are from QUEEN KRYSTAL http://www.polkadotpotato.com/ go and check out the potato bar...she is LOADED lots of GOODIEZ on there...GREAT stuFF and only 99cents! WOHOO! lots of other STUFf on there..I loaded up!


I hope that y'all have a FANTASTIC week...ice is expected in our neck of the woods on Tuesday..hmmmmmmmm..interesting to see how this is going to pan out....


hope you LOVE the layouts..they were FUN to do! More to come..promise! :) This week is going to be SUCH a better one than last week..I just know it! :)

I hope that y'all LOVE my layout...I wish that I could have dreamed up this one..I did tweak it to my likin' though...you know gotta make it your own..right?!? Oh....say a little prayer that Kaney's nose isn't broken...he was accidenly pushed and hit my heel of my heel nose first full force..it was UGLY! There was MUCH tears....let me tell ya! I am thinking that there HAS to be a broken bone in there somewhere...I am also positive that there are going to be two black eyes from the fall...LOVELY!
