Scrapbook Sunday: My PLUMP-kin!!

Hi! Welcome to Scrapbook Sunday; where you can show off a fave scrapbook layout or two, some of your fave scrapbooking tools, etc. If you'd like to participate, just grab the above button and leave me a comment that you are joining in, along with the link to your SS post!

Today I am showing off some Halloween pages from my lil' ones first album... his 1st Halloween!

Here is the lil PLUMPkin in some pj's that were bought for him to wear on his first Halloween but we had to put them on him a couple months prior cause they were too small at Halloween! lol

For the layout below, I used some fun Halloween paper that came from Target's $1 section; I just picked up another 2 packs of this years papers the other day from Target! I love the colors/designs of their papers; just wish they were a little bit thicker paper.



For the layour below, I punched out small circles to use as my title; then added letter stickers to those circles. Remember, how important it is to JOURNAL on your Scrapbook pages; the memories behind those photos of yours are SOOOO important!



Please visit my friend HOLLY and VICKIE  and KATIE to see their SS posts!

MWW: Fall Family Fun!

Welcome to MWW!

I am revisted pics of my fave fall family thing that we do together in our household...

the Pumpkin Patch/Farm!!

Looking at these pics from a year ago makes me very sentimental because my baby boy was barely hairy last fall and was only 1:( Now he is SO big; almost 2 1/2; over 3 feet tall and weighs 40 lbs. AND he needs a haircut at least once a month!! My oldest son is 8 now... has gained some weight in the past year, lost some teeth and is in 2nd grade! Then there's me... 20 lbs lighter with waaaay longer hair! Hubby to be hasn't changed- still good looking, a smart a*s too but actually he has lost about 15 lbs too over the past year!

Look at my lil pee-wee!

He couldn't pick up pumpkins last year!

This year he probably will throw one at his big bro! lol

Big bro is so much older looking now than in this pick and has a bit of a jack-o-lantern smile going on now!!

Wonder how they will measure up this fall?

I will have to take another shot of these 3 when we visit the Pumpkin Patch in a couple weeks to compare this year to last year!

Thanks for visiting me today!

i'm still breathing!

Hey chicks! I will be posting for MWW later today; nap time I hope!

My lil Gage is starting to feel better!!

I started reading New Moon last night and have to FORCE myself to put the da*n book down and do things like... SHOWER!! Isn't that terrible?? lol I figure... at least I am READING A BOOK... I haven't done that in years!! But the BAD part... I am neglecting reading my text book for my class tonite; oops! Think the prof would understand that my love for Edward Cullen is far greater than the love for her Scientific Inquiry course??



Off to change a stinky diaper then a nice cool fall morning walk!!

(*Love the details don't ya?? hehehe)



Love you all,

Noelle ♥

♥ LOVE ♥

Oh! Lord have mercy on me for being in love with another man...

Ahhhh, yes... "Edward Cullen" from Twilight and the upcoming New Moon movie!

I recently watched Twilight for the first time and am in LOVE with that movie!

I know, I know... the books are SO much better; everyone keeps telling me that:)

I am running to the library today to get them!

Did you see the MTV VMA's last night and saw the movie trailer for NEW MOON?

Wow, that took my breath away!

This movie seems SO action packed; I CANNOT wait to see it Nov. 20th!

Forget honeymoon, I am goin' to the movies, lol!

I have other things to blog about, but this is my OBSESSION that I had to share with you!

Have a great day!

where have i been?

Hey gals!

Just popping in today to say HEY! I have been on overload the past few days... my youngest has been feverish with a nasty cough and ouchy tummy; so I haven't slept well or had time to put a descent blog post together either!


Today we celebrated my mom's "49th again" birthday with a Disney Princess Theme; created by me:) Hey, she's girly and loves pink... and wanted NO reminders of her age this birthday! I made a cute cake and will have pics soon! We went to lunch with a couple friends then hit Michael's!! FUN!!


I have been feeling under the weather too with sneezing and stuffiness and today my head felt so stuffed up!! NOT FUN!!


SO tomorrow is my day HOME to do housework, homework and put together a BIG blog post for you all! Say a lil prayer that my Gagie feels better soon:)


Hope you all are having a wonderful fun-filled weekend; I'll be by soon to visit! OH, and there will be no Scrapbook Sunday post from me this week:(


Hugs ♥

Tell me what you think!!

Hi girls! This FALL wall hanging has been my project the past 2 weeks.

At first, I had the idea of decoupaging the letters to stand up right on a shelf...

then realized the ones I purchased have funky edges so they DON'T stand! UGH!

So then I came up with the idea of hot glueing them to a ribbon... it came out a bit crooked but I guess I am pretty pleased with how it all came out. What do you think?

I painted each letter then added autumn rub-on stickers used for scrapbooking and some leaf stickers too. The ribbon I used on the back came from Wal-Mart on clearance for $0.75 for the roll! The letters were $2.99 a piece.

I REALLY love how the bow at the bottom came out!! I added a couple prima flowers to the center of it and a brown button; kinds looks like a lil sunflower, eh? Then I hot glued a larger sunflower to the top of it.

I think this will go on my front door. It has a large rectangle window in the center of it, so this would fit perfectly!

I love how all the colors came out on my creation; you know I LOVE fall!

Just still a bit frustrated that I didn't get the letters lined up how I wanted to:(

Have a great day!

(Come back tomorrow to see what I got in the mail from my friend HOLLY!!)

Hugs,

MWW#15... Thats why I love him!

Hopefully no one finds this offensive but this is the man that I am marrying just 2 months from next Monday... pretending to "pee" water at the water park we visited this past summer. Thank GOD the children were playing and didn't see daddy do this! lol:)

Sometimes life is very stressful with living on only one income, preparing for the wedding and so on... but this man finds humor in the smallest things and makes me smile!
(although he'd wouldn't be the MOST thrilled if he knew I showed you this pic!)
I LOVE you honey... even if you are a tad bit "OFF"!

Thanks for joining me on MWW!
Maybe after this photo, you regret stopping by?
