Our Mini Family Vacation

On Saturday morning our Family pictures plan was thwarted once again... Aiden fell down and scrapped his little chin! It never fails! Something aways happens when I book that appointment. I've made up my mind, no more appointments for pictures. Next time i'll just get he kids ready and go. Anyhoo.... that meant that we didn't have any plans for Saturday so we decided to take a mini-vacation. We got in the truck and went to a little place called Sylvan Lake. It is located about and hour and a half North of Calgary. Sylvan Lake is a provincial park town and is absolutely beautiful. Here are some pics from our day.

Fail 2 Plan- Wordart Freebie

Many, many, many moons ago my Grampa was a fisherman. He had a huge Longliner boat that him and his crew would use to fish for Cod all over the Atlantic Ocean. Is was a dangerous job and still to this day, remains one of the most dangerous. When he was getting ready for a fishing trip he would always say how much work it was and how every little detail had to be planned and accounted for. I remember as a young girl he would always say todays quote. "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail." So here it is. Hope you like it.

Believe in yourself- Wordart Freebie

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day who is about to return to College after 10 years of being a SAHM. She is very nervous about hitting the books again. In the course of our conversation, she said that she didn't know if she could do it and neither did her family (real supportive family she's got there, sense the sarcasm). I told her that if she didn't beleive she could do, no one else would either. I think that this quote sums it up perfectly. Enjoy.

Dance like no one's watching- Wordart Freebie

The inspiration for todays quote came from an episode of Seinfeld that I happened to see last night flicking through the channels. It was the one where Elaine was dancing at her Christmas party. HILARIOUS! I am not a Seinfeld fan but that episode just cracked me up. LOL. Anyhoo... she danced like no one was watching..... enjoy!

Children learn by doing- Wordart Freebie

I sat down in my living room yesterday afternoon and watched my kids playing. They weren't doing anything special, just playing. It got me thinking about when they were born how they were so small, and so helpless, and how they really couldn't do anything. Well here they are now growing up so fast and learning even faster. It is true that kids learn by doing. Hence, this quote sums it all up. Enjoy. And remember, if you like my work, leave me some love.

All the world is a scrapbook- Freebie Wordart

Well... we aren't going to get our family pics taken today as planned. For some strange reason (sense the frustration) my appointment was scheduled for next weekend. I called yesterday to confirm and was told it's next Saturday, not today. Oh well.... this will give me a little time today to catch up on some scrapbooking. I have been focusing on my wordart a little more this week and I got a lot done. I'm quite pleased with some of them too. I thought that this little quote was appropriate for today. Enjoy.

Great Love- Wordart Freebie

Happy Hump Day! LOL. I just love Wednesdays. It means that there is only 2 days left until the weekend and 2 days left for the hubby to work. I have been trying to figure out what to do this weekend and finally made the decision to get our Family Pictures taken on Saturday. When Emma turned one year old, we took her out and had professional pics taken to commemorate the occasion. Now that Aiden will be turning 1 in August, we are going to do the same for him. Plus, we will get the family pics taken too. That is of course unless one of the kids falls down and bruises or cuts their face, or the cat scratches Aiden's face, or Emma falls on her duckie and gets a black eye. Yes people... this has all happened lately when we had planed on getting the family pics taken! I haven't told the hubby yet because I don't want to jinx it... he'll find out on Saturday morning when I do my "fancy" hair. LOL. Anyhoo... here is a cute wordart for you. Enjoy.

10 little fingers- Wordart Freebie

As some of you may know, my neice just had her first baby girl a few weeks ago. Her name is Baileigh and she is just adorable. As I get new pictures of her, I am making a baby scrapbook for her. I plan on giving it to her as a present on her first birthday. I wanted a cute but simple quote to use on a page with pics of her fingers and toes.... what better than 10 little fingers and 10 little toes. Enjoy.

Alarm Clock- Wordart Freebie

Well it's Monday morning again and another early rise in my house. Having a 2 year old and an 11 month old makes for lots of early rises. I have even tried putting them to bed later at night, but they are still up between 5am and 7am. I would love it so much if just once they would sleep though the night and not get up until 8am. Is that too much to wish for? My mother made the comment a few days ago that who needs an alarm clock when you have kids.... she's definately right. Here is a little wordart that expresses a little of that sentiment. Enjoy.

Two hearts that have been merged- Wordart Freebie

Good morning to everyone out there. I finally got a good nights sleep last night and now i'm full of get up and go! I think today I'm going to attempt to clean out my storage room. It's bursting at the seams and in dire need of a cleanout. You don't realize how much "stuff" you accumulate when you have 2 kids who grow out of everything so fast. I have enough clothes that they have grown out of to fill 2 closets. I have been trying to see some of it online. There are a few good free sites that you can advertise in. The one that I have gotten the best results with has been http://www.kijiji.com/ Check it out. You can get/sell some great stuff there. Well... gotta run and get started on my storage room before my get up and go go's. LOL. Here is a new wordart . Enjoy.

Life is not meant to be easy- Wordart Freebie

Yaaawwwnnn! I had a rough night last night and I am so tired I can barely keep my eyes open. Poor little Emma woke up at 1:30 and was very sick...vomiting and just all over miserable. I was up with Aiden giving him a bottle at the time so the hubby got up with her until I got Aiden back in bed. I was up with her for about 3 hours and just as I got back to sleep....Aiden was up again and wouldn't settle down. The long and the short of it all... it's now 9:13 in the morning and I had about 3 hours sleep. As tired as I am though, I just couldn't forget to give you all this new wordart. Hope you like it.

Education.... New Wordart Freebie

Good Morning All. Todays wordart holds a very special meaning in my life right now. I am in the process of teaching Emma her ABC's. It is so amazing to sit and watch this little 2 year old girl, who has been able to sing her ABC's for about 6 months now, start to recognize each letter. Even though we have just begun, she is doing so good. I am so proud of her and what she is starting to accompolish. I just hope that this is just the beginning of her quest for knowledge and education. I hope that you enjoy this wordart.

A hug is like a boomerang.... Wordart Freebie

Well.... Happy Monday Morning to you all. I hope that everyone had a great weekend. Mine was very relaxing. On Saturday morning the Hubby and I took the kids swimming. They love the water so much. Especially Emma. She cries so hard when it's time to get out of the pool. We always go when it is Family Swim Time and she just loves to play and swim with the other kids. It is just so much fun to watch her have fun. When we got out of the pool on Saturday, she leaned into me and gave me a great big hug and said Thanks MomMom. I guess she apprecaited that I took her swimming. So cute! So here is a little wordart that expresses the sentiment of a hug. Enjoy.

There is no snooze button.... Wordart Freebie

Well... another sleepless night for me. My little guy is teething and is having a hard time sleeping longer than 20 minutes at a time. Poor little guy! And guess what? When he wakes up he cries LOUD! And then guess what? He wakes his sister. And then guess what? She comes into my bedroom and wakes her father. And then guess what? He's up with her and gets no sleep. He has to work in the morning. And then guess what? You get the point.... LOL. Anyhoo... morning came really early for me today and there is no snooze button on a kid who wants breakfast! Enjoy!
