What's in Your Purse? (Blog Challenge)

Stacy Julian posted a challenge on her BLOG called "What's in your purse?". What you do is post a photo of yourself and then post a photo of the junk that's in your purse.

I only carry a purse about 50% of the time, it gets on my nerves, but I buy them and I like to look at them and they make me happy. I guess that's the girly part of me, the not girly part of me is the part that it gets on my nerves.

Anyhoo, here's me and my junk! :)

Yeah, I wear Tinker Bell body spray, what of it? It smells yummy! I have no idea why I have an easter egg in there, but is it gross that I ate the jelly beans that were in it while I was arranging my junk? They were still good. My lips stay hydrated, my elbows are never ashy, I never have to worry about my contacts drying out, and anytime I decide to wear Camo I have a necklace to go with my ensemble. I think I'm set!

BTW, I like the word Junk! JUNK, JUNK, JUNK!

Whatcha gonna do with all that junk, all that junk inside your trunk?

Teacher Appreciation week!

It is Teacher Appreciation week at Alyvia's school this week. So I put a few things together for her to give her teacher. This is the first scrapbooking project I've done in over a year, I still have it...lol.

This is a little chipboard album that I picked up at Michael's in the dollar spot (yeah!) , I thought it was perfect for a teacher project so I couldn't pass it up. All of the pattern paper is from The Grade School stack by DCWV (love!) and I sewed on every page. I love how sewing looks on a layout, I don't care if it's out or not, I still like it, so neener neener!

On this page I helped Alyvia write her teacher a little letter!

And I found a new product at Hobby Lobby that I'm loving! It's a WAY cheaper version of Mod Podge and I love it!

It was only a $1.99

Kids say the darndest things!

I have some funny, funny kids. They bring a lot of laughter into our house.

When they say really funny things I usually write it down and incorporate it in their scrapbooks some how.

Here's a few from the last few days;

I had just sat Gavin down with some cereal and OJ.
Gavin: I want something different to drink
Me: No, you like Orange juice, just drink your juice.
Gavin: This juice tastes like Feet.

He's only 4, where did he get that from? lol


Yesterday we were outside playing and alyvia was hula hooping.
Alyvia: I like huler hooping, it's good exercise
Me: yeah, it is good exercise
Alyvia: Do you think it's good for my buns and thighs?
Me: Your BUNS AND THIGHS? (enter laughter here)

My kids are crazy, they crack me up!
