My daughter mooned the Bishop

We had our primary presentation today at church. Hensley was in it this year as a Sunbeam and well, the title says it all!

The End

Some fun news and a freebie!

OK everyone! I have made my final decision, I'm sure no one else has as hard a time than me with making decisions that just really aren't that crucial! LOL! My blog is almost ready but I have decided to keep my digital scrapbooking here on this blog.
So, for my fun news, I actually have a few fun things. First of all, I went onto my Cafe Mom group this morning and I have hit over 1,000 members! How did that even happen? I started it because I couldn't find a group and wanted to connect with other digital scrapbookers. I was afraid no one would even join! Now a little over a year my group is over 1,ooo and I'm on the creative team of my favorite designer. Even better than that, Ellie has become a good friend. We had dinner at Chili's last week and let me tell you she is as sweet in person as she is in our little scrapbook community. I leant her my Twilight and New Moon books(because I haven't finished Eclipse or Breaking Dawn yet) and she has read the whole series twice since then. So if you are a Twilight fan go to Ellie's blog because she is requesting feedback about the interest of some Twilight freebies! Yes Ellie Please!!!
Also, Ginger from Gingerscraps Freebies blog has opened her own store!!! YAY! (She is having server problems at the moment but keep checking back) Ginger is one of my members at CafeMom and is the sweetest person ever. I went to her website last night and clicked on her team members link and all her team is from our group, including her sister Julie, Jill from Priddy Sweet Designs and Becka, who does the most amazing layouts!!! I'm so proud, I have a little tear in my eye! LOL! She has a couple of fun freebies but this one is my favorite...

Why aren't you designing Melanie? Good question! I've got a few things in the works that I am really excited about but more about that later!
One more fun announcement! Tracy, my fellow team member has opened her own store also! Yay Tracy! She has some really cute products in there and her site is sooo cute! She has an awesome Halloween kit out called 'All Hollow's Eve' and I have already played with it. Here is my fun page...
And as a special treat to you, Tracy has given me permission to give all of you the Quick Page to my layout! Thank you Tracy! So here is your QP...

Have a great rest of your weekend!!!

Decisions, Decisions

Well, as you can see I have started dressing up my blog again. I'm finding it hard to part with my sassypixie blog but then my wordpress blog is soooo pretty. I haven't decided quite yet if my wordpress blog will be a design blog or my personal blog. Decisions Decisions! I can't stay long, I have to pick up my house that my son has ransaked while I was on the computer this morning. I get to go to a salon and get MY hair done by someone other than me. I am in for a fall change! YAY! I will be back soon with updates and a freebie!!! I have something wonderful in the works. Until then, have a fabulous day!!!

Chat Tomorrow!

I have been sooo bad at blogging! I actually have my new wordpress blog thanks to Miss Ellie but I haven't finished making it way cute yet and you know me! Hopefully the next few days I will be making the switch! I wanted to let you all know about a fun chat going on tomorrow at Sunshine Studio Scraps. Ellie and Vasco(Moon Scraps) have a fabulous collaboration kit coming out tomorrow! I've gotten to play with it already!!!

Don't forget to check out the team blog tomorrow to see what Ellie is releasing tomorrow!

Be Patient!

Yes, I am at it again! LOL!

Where are my widgets???

My widgets are gone! Oh my! I was playing with my blog again and bye bye! But I am actually getting ready to transition over to word press! I find it a lot more user friendly since I've been writing the team blog! I will let you know! So in the meantime, if you need me just shoot me a comment!
Hensley started preschool today. YAY! I actually tried to get her into a five day a week one but it hasn't happened yet! LOL! Hayden is getting used to his schedule and Hunter is already in trouble with teachers. His problem is he is too smart. He challenges everything you say and talks down to you! His Spanish teacher is not liking it! What can you do? His mom says it's no big deal. I guess she wouldn't since she's the same way!
Landon is still not walking yet! It looks like he is going to be like his brother and sister and wait until 13 months. I really think he could he just won't.
I am officially not on ScrapMatters CT as of yesterday. They should be announcing their new CT soon. It's kind of bittersweet, I will miss them but then I will have more time to do things that I have put off. I scrapped myself crazy the last week of the month! I will try to put a slide show up today or tomorrow. I did well over 20 layouts the month of August! Whew!
So, I will be back soon with a freebie and maybe a new blog! This one will still be here with the link to my new one and all my freebies on this blog will remain active!

Lazy Monday!!!

Ohhh, it is such a lazy day! I have been down all weekend with what I'm guessing is a migraine. I've never had them before but I have been so sick and my head just kills and it makes me feel sick! Fun huh! I am feeling a little better today but I definitely am not feeling myself!!! I have been really busy with the new blog which I am having so much fun working on Ellie's team!!! My parents came into town, school started again and the baby had his 1st birthday last weekend. I think I just had too much going on at once.

So, as I mentioned before, my little Hayden started school. He's kind of having a hard time getting used to those long hours again. Hunter is doing good in 8th grade but he's never had a hard time with school, except for thinking he knows more than the teachers and then they don't like that very much! LOL!

Landon turned one on the 10th and I just can't figure out where the year has gone! He is such an awesome baby! He cracks me up daily! He is the happiest little boy! He truly is my little angel!
My sister-in-law and I went to Kiddie Kandids last Thursday and got Landon's 1 year pictures and Teaghan's 1 month pictures taken! They all turned out perfect!

Aren't all those just precious! I'm just so relieved that my baby is 1 year and sleeping through the night! I don't envy the newborn stage at all! She is precious though! I am really enjoying holding her, loving on her and then giving her back to mom and dad! It's usually the other way around!

Not much else is going on! My parents went back to Utah and will be back in October. Hensley will start preschool the day after labor day, she is asking to go to school everyday and can't understand why she can't go!

As for my scrapbooking, I have been busy getting Quick Pages done for the blog, of course I changed my blog again after working with the 'She Dreams' kit. It is one of my favorites. Here are a few things that I worked on this last week...

I've already used this picture but it just worked perfect with the page. This is my 1st QP for the blog.

This is my 2nd QP. My mom brought this dress from Utah for Hensley! It is the prettiest little Sunday Dress.

This layout was for the Speed Scrap last Monday at ScrapMatters. I love this picture of Landon. I actually just caught it at the right time. He was smiling up at my mom when we were at Lagoon in Utah back in June. The kit I used is 'Country Stars' from Ellie Lash.

I've made some freebies this week also. They are for the team blog and available there.

This a template made by yours truly. It is for Challenge Me Thursday... it is a journaling challenge to tell a story of your pictures.

This is the WordArt that goes with the QP download of the day.

And this is for the Weekend Project. It is a template for a Bingo Card. You can customize your cards however you want. I used the 'So Sweet' mini kit that was part of Ellie's Grab Bag.

Also, don't forget that there is still the Download of the day. You can find all of these fabulous treats at our Ellie's Angels' CT Blog.

I also have received a fun little reward from sweet JillianRoze but I will have to come back in the next couple of days to pass this on! My children are losing patience with this long blog post!

On a very,very sad note, NieNie from nieniedialogues and her mr. nielson were in an private airplane crash here is Arizona. I'm really not sure what is going to happen. The pilot died yesterday. I am very sad!

I will see you soon!

Pardon My Mess!!!

Yes, I am remodeling again! I don't know why for sure! Just wanted something different...again! Will be back soon with a way cute blog and a new post! Meanwhile, don't forget about the Daily Download over at our Angels' Blog.

It's A Blog Train!!!

You are on the blog train!!! Welcome to my little corner of the world! You are in Sunny and very Hot Arizona!!!

Pick up your freebie here and keep going west until you reach the beautiful coast! Heather has quite the treat for you!!!

In a more personal note. Hayden and Hunter started school on Wednesday! It came really fast this year! Although I am not complaining! On the 1st day Hayden ended up on the wrong bus and back at the school! Yes, similar thing happened last year too! I haven't even put the pictures on my computer yet so I will have to post those later. Landon's birthday is in 2 days! I can't believe he will be 1. This year has flown by!!!
