M.I.A. and a great contest!

I know...I know...I have been M.I.A. I have been helping out some friends lately and busy, busy with school stuff for Collin and Belle, so I have not been able to really create much. Plus I feel sick. Really sick. The kind of...don't want to do anything buy lay here and be miserable and stare at the wall sick. That is unbelieveably frustrating for me, but what can you do?

First, I have a long overdue thank you for Scrappy Piglet. Isabel won her challege awhile back and recieved a great package, but I neglected on properly thanking her for the great prize. Isabel LOVED it! So Thank You, Scrappy Piglet and mommy! You guys are the best! Here is a pic. of Belle and her prize.

Big weekend for me this weekend! Despite not feeling good, Billy and I got to celebrate our anniversary (from July LOL) and have a kid free hotel weekend. It was nice just being together. Good food, a lovely hotel room and SLEEP! Uninterrupted sleep! My darling husband also gifted me with some really cool stuff to help me put together my new new (smaller) scrapbook room. (I am switching with Belle so she can have the much larger closet. We got a great deal and I can't wait to get Isabel's room put together so I can work on mine! Here is ONE of the 4x4 slat walls and a sample of each type of shelf he got to go on them. The total? $40!!!! What a fantastic deal. Of course there will be more pics when I get it together.
