I missed my honey who was in Mississippi visiting his girls this weekend. He got to spend 4 days there which was good. He misses them like crazy! I wish I could go back with him more too! The only benefit I can think of to him being gone for me is….. I didn’t have to shave my legs for 4 days…HA HA HA!!! And the girls and I got to make an EXTREME SCRAPPY mess of the house all weekend and not clean it up!!!! How cool is that???? Here are a few photos of the girls’ mess AND mine! 
Besides that wedding album that I FINALLY finished….I got this layout done of Kacie for a challenge over at My Scrapbook Nook. You guys should check that place out. It’s awesome and their Monthly kits rock! The star in this layout is one of my hand-drawn and cut ones!
While I am thinking about it…….
UPDATE ON MY KIT BLOG: It’s been really hard for me to get that going while working very full-time with my daycare too. After all, the kit thing was going to be a “full-time” thing for me once we relocated to Mississippi. B ut while I have been struggling to get that going it has given me the time I’ve needed to really think about it and I have decided I don’t want to do JUST KITS. I don’t want my “Job” to burn me out on my hobby and I KNOW ME and I will get really bored with that after a while. That’s just me. I have the attention span of a gnat with certain things. I am grateful to have realized that NOW instead of 6 months from now. Anyway…..with my love of all things crafty including wood and painting mixed with paper and scrapbooking….I’ve decided to just open up an ETSY shop. I will have some kits and home decco stuff up there really soon. This will allow me to create when and how I want and with no pressure of monthly or bi-weekly deadlines. The cool thing too is I can just make say 10-20 of something and when it’s gone….it’s gone. I want to make more wedding albums and mini albums for people too! I don’t want to hate the project by the time I am done with it. (ie; red hearts :)) Anyway….I will keep you posted on that. I am REALLY excited and I hope you will be too! I have some super cool things planned!
Macey’s birthday falls on Memorial Day every few years! She opened some gifts and then we went to my Grandparents for a BBQ and some swimming. Happy Birthday again sweetie! This is a special birthday for her. She is getting baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints this coming Saturday. She is blooming into beautiful little lady. Here are some more birthday presents photos and then some swimming photos. Good times. Hopefully everyone had a safe and happy Memorial Day! And have a great week!

Ok Shanna, first things first. 1- That mess makes me homesick for you. I miss our scrappy/let the kids play all day or night times. 2- I love the new rug in your living room. 3- That page of Kacie needs to be a kit. It rocks and I so want to copy it. Maybe you should just sell your start template alone. 4- Love all the birthday shots. Macey sure looks cute and happy. I wish we could come to her baptism. William says no way since we will see you 2 weeks later. Love you!
